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 many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."
"Maturity makes it a stable product."
"Fortunately, now everything is streamlined into a single, unified platform."
"Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."
"The device profiling which uses the official Outlook email enabled us to control the screenshot feature and prevent copying outside of the organization's application."
"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."
"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."
"While Microsoft Intune boasts a wide range of features, its user-friendliness and bundled licensing cost are key considerations for me."
"The most valuable features of IBM MaaS360 are encryption and mobile design."
"The ability to send an iPad out to someone and have them auto-provision it when they are out in the field is fantastic. We don't have to have it all configured before we ship it. This is probably the biggest value add."
"We introduced the product as part of the SOC-2 requirement. The tool's most valuable features include keeping the operating system updated, tracking software inventory, controlling computer administrators, and the ability to wipe a computer in case of a security threat. It helps us to be compliant, and it is one of the reasons we implemented it."
"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."
"It helped us reduce the number of support incidents by limiting users' access to device configurations."
"The product’s most valuable feature is email, browser, and application security."
"Mobile Device Configuration with policy applying: This significantly reduces time of device configuration."
"It seems highly stable and scalable."
"We find it to be reliable."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"Among the most important improvements is the ability to set up different groups with different deployment policies."
"The contained browser is a good feature."
"The most valuable feature is policy-driven control of the devices."
"It has good stability."
"You can upgrade and migrate the existing group policies that we use for VMware Workspace ONE for the active directory. We can push the policies and group policies. We can migrate it and manage it from VMware Workspace ONE."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely be improved."
"Deploying an app can be a complex process due to dependencies."
"Intune has some limitations when it comes to application updates for third-party applications. You can schedule an update, but when it's a package setup, you need to supercede and replace it each time."
"Sometimes, updating a client policy is very difficult. This needs to be improved."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"There should be more focus on mobile device security and integration."
"User interface is basic and not very intuitive."
"Configuring policies is difficult in IBM MaaS360. It also needs to improve usability."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"An area for improvement would be handshaking with Microsoft in terms of trying to get a DLP on Microsoft OS."
"It's difficult for someone like me to set up a phone that doesn't require a SIM card, like Apple's new phones."
"It would be ideal to add support for the distribution of windows.exe applications."
"Zero day support is something they can work on. They can make it a little bit more user-friendly."
"We opted to go with Microsoft Intune because it just seemed to be a more mature and comprehensive enterprise solution, whereas IBM MaaS360 didn't seem to have the necessary breadth to manage all of our equipment. Along with laptops, I've had some BYODs. IBM MaaS360 just didn't seem as mature in our assessment."
"I tried to use the tool on an encrypted disk, but it was inconvenient."
"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved."
"The technical support could be improved."
"I would like to see improvements made to both the support, and the pricing."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around. It required some API integration required because visitor integration was not there. For example, we are currently working on a tunnel issue, and VMware doesn't have this solution."
"Integration with Microsoft needs improvement. There are some dependencies with Microsoft that aren't 100% yet, for example: compliance synchronization."
"Pricing is a limitation. I think it's on the higher side, so if it were cheaper, it would benefit more organizations."
