We performed a comparison between Ivanti Avalanche and VMware Workspace ONE based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"Easy to use."
"The standout features of Intune are its excellent mobile device management and highly effective application management capabilities."
"It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"The most valuable features are the ones that make sure that the deployment is of a standard operating system and the Zero Touch deployment, which is very useful. This allows users to have an out of box experience."
"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."
"Its protection policies are most valuable. It protects mobile devices as well as individual apps. It is pretty scalable, and its documentation is also pretty good. It is also pretty straightforward to deploy."
"It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution. Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature."
"The terminal remediation feature is valuable."
"The solution is easy to work with. I like its stability and flexibility."
"Installing the packages remotely and remote control are the most valuable features. There are around 100 pieces or devices, and the only way to send a package to a device is by connecting to the PC and then manually sending the package. By using Avalanche, we can send a package to all devices with one click. It is very stable and easy to use. Their technical support is also very good. We have implemented this solution for our clients, and they are satisfied with this solution. It does what it is meant to do."
"The most useful feature of Avalanche is remote control — especially the ability to remotely install packages to many devices all at once. When the client has, for example, 100 devices needing updates, it would take far too long to update each device individually. But with Avalanche, we just connect to all the devices through the PC and send the updates out with one click."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Avalanche are the remote control and the file transfer."
"The solution has very good documentation."
"You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
"Among the most important improvements is the ability to set up different groups with different deployment policies."
"The solution has a lot of capabilities, and it is easy to manage and customize."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to configure."
"The product enables us to access our internal applications from anywhere in the world."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"We've configured single sign-on for two or three enterprise customers, and it works very well."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"Intune's third-party patch management could be better. It should be easier for the average system admin to keep non-Microsoft applications updated."
"I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product."
"Lacking ability to leverage more iOS device management internally."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"The technical support could be improved."
"Microsoft Intune could improve by being more user-friendly and having it geared toward device management. The graphic interface is not very good."
"It should be simplified. I've worked with many different mobile device management solutions, and Intune is one of the more complex ones. It could be more simplified, and some of it is related to the wording that is being used, such as a configuration profile versus a policy. They really should have had different names to make it less confusing."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"Its price could be improved. It could be cheaper. I would like to see a better approach for Android and an easy way to send packages and manage devices."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior."
"Because our clients are all very satisfied with Ivanti from their side, there is little I can say about room for improvement. However, I think that to stay competitive with other solutions offering a similiar solution, Ivanti could look into making their products more affordable."
"The solution can improve by adding a kiosk mode option to the devices."
"There is a lack of flexibility."
"This product makes use of SAML across the board, which has seven known security flaws. It would be good if the company created a way to protect against SAML flaws. One way would be to integrate a firewall server or an endpoint out in the cloud with which you could establish trust. If you knew nothing about SAML and you did some Google searches about what SAML is, what are the flaws, and what are the known vulnerabilities, eventually, you'll find that there are seven flaws. There are two methods that you can use to solve those seven problems. They essentially involve putting a firewall or putting rules, such as access controls, so that anybody in the world can't just come in, authenticate, and either be a good guy or be someone trying to knock on my door and get into my house. If I could eliminate that, it would be awesome."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users."
"There is no Apple zero-day support for updates."
"Lacks a modern enterprise mobility management platform."
"The length of time it takes to deploy an application could improve."
"Sometimes, we have challenges with remote patching and remote version upgrades."
"Feature-wise, it is fine, but its pricing could be better, given that Microsoft is on a bundling spree. AirWatch would benefit from reducing the license pricing per user per month."
