Find out in this report how the two Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."
"The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side."
"It has a useful device management feature."
"Intune's feature that I have found most valuable is its auto-pilot feature."
"This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"It has helped with compliance. It has helped to ensure that devices comply with the organization's policy. If they are not compliant and secure, they cannot access the resources."
"Microsoft's cloud comes with a lot of extra features that are free of charge."
"It works pretty well for us."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The company provides great customer service."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"Sophos can block the Wi-Fi connection on a mobile device. That's one feature we wanted, but the main thing is the ability to disable the device if it's lost or stolen. We need to shut down PayPal, so it can't be used to make unauthorized purchases."
"In terms of valuable features, we liked the lock feature, the roll-out white feature, and the find feature. I think that Sophos had a GPS locator, so you could figure out where the phone was from a GPS location."
"The remote management and cloud-based maintenance features of this solution are very useful for our organization."
"The management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users."

"The add-ons must be integrated into the solution."
"It would be great to see on-premises mailboxes and for the solution to have geofencing capabilities."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"Technical support is not that great."
"When somebody has a customized application or their own company's application, we cannot deploy that application."
"China blocks Google and Google Play Store, which makes installation challenging. Microsoft Intune is a company software, which has to be installed to the app portal or Microsoft Software Center."
"There should be more support for macOS. Even though macOS is supported by Intune and Microsoft is working very hard to get more features into Intune to manage macOS, that's one thing they can give a lot more attention to."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."

"It could be more secure."
"The setup should be made easier."

"We encounter issues while working with iOS."
