We performed a comparison between IBM MaaS360 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."The ability to wipe data from and reset devices is one of the most important and valuable features. If a device is reported stolen, we can freeze it or wipe the data from it, preventing data leakage."
"Intune device restriction policies enable me to enforce limitations on the device, like blocking the mobile camera or restricting the employees from using and inserting USB devices, including thumb drives and flash drives."
"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"The solution is easy to use, simple to understand for those new to using it, and combined with the other Microsoft products it makes for an overall good package."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."
"It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature."
"It is a stable solution that functions twenty-four hours and seven days a week."
"One valuable feature is the ability to provide a secure environment. Another is the kiosk mode where MaaS360 can be used over a tablet or mobile device to ensure that a single application is used."
"My customers value the ability to control all their devices from a central point in IBM MaaS360."
"The best feature is the ability to control mobile phones, wipe and containerize the data, and keep employees' work data separate from personal data."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that we can find a lost device or shut the device down and wipe it is good for HIPAA."
"Remote enablement feature and access to internal resources on the VPN."
"The implementation phase of IBM MaaS360 was pretty easy."
"The most valuable features of IBM MaaS360 are encryption and mobile design."
"Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue."
"App delivery and management platform that's user-friendly, with a good interface. Easy to scale, easy to set up, with good stability."
"The product offers integration capabilities with third-party solutions."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"We used to have a system before, Mac OS Open Directory server and this open directory became obsolete because Apple decided to stop the enterprise market, so there was no other alternative for us to use. We chose this to replace the open directory and we found that it has many more features than the previous solution. We totally rely on it right now to manage all the devices on campus."
"The most valuable feature is the security policies."
"Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is that it can support most end users' enterprise applications."
"The feature that allows us to import the business application from the configuration manager to Intune is not very good at this time."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"Some enrollment features 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."
"The UI also needs improvements because it is complex for end-users. We have had feedback from a few users in our organization who found the UI is not feasible for tracking and analyzing all the processes and monitoring all the devices."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams could be better."
"The product needs to improve tech support."
"Can be added process of export/import environment configuration to simplify any migration processes."
"IBM MaaS360 can improve the information provided for DLP control. Some of our customers would benefit from this."
"It would be ideal to add support for the distribution of windows.exe applications."
"Sometimes IBM MaaS360 seems buggy...The solution's technical support team is sometimes slow to respond and not competent enough."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"The interface is clunky and the layout is a bit outdated. Also, I don't think MaaS360 has as many features as Intune. It doesn't integrate with Office as seamlessly as Intune does, which isn't surprising, given that Intune and Office are Microsoft products."
"I'd like to see more integration capabilities in future releases."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"Windows 10 management is there, but VMware only recently developed that part, and it's not fully mature. Patch management and other integrations are there as well as the application-pushing part, command line, mandatory commands, etc. Some out-of-the-box solutions should be available to better integrate a broader range of applications and handle application push. That's the roadmap we should look at."
"The application itself individuals are getting annoyed with it. They are looking to integrate with ABB applications regardless of whether it is Android or iOS based. We are wanting to shift from this application because of the integration issues we are facing."
"In terms of the inventory management side, as in the invoice management, the stock management and the entire inventory of an organization is lagging a bit in comparison to Blackberry or other EMM solutions."
"They need a more flexible pricing model."
"We'd like the customization to be better."
"The mobile device repository is somewhat difficult to manage with a large user base."
