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."Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."
"It has a useful device management feature."
"The dashboards, the security, and the customization capabilities work very well for us."
"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."
"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."
"In terms of technical support, you will get an immediate response."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"Its direct integration with all the other products that we have from Microsoft is valuable. We're using the E5 license, and we have a whole wealth of different products available. It just makes it easier to have everything from one provider."
"Asset management is the most valuable feature and integral for device inventory."
"We've found the scalability to be very good."
"The tool's most valuable features are application, distribution, and security. It helps to block user access."
"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 best feature is the ability to control mobile phones, wipe and containerize the data, and keep employees' work data separate from personal data."
"The graphic, friendly interface allowed us to start without almost any support from the manufacturer."
"It allows us to have an updated inventory of all the devices in real-time with the ability to add personalized information."

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 product offers integration capabilities with third-party solutions."
"VMware Workspace ONE is a platform that's really good at monitoring and managing mobile endpoints. It can be set up quickly and implemented easily. Technical support for this solution has always been good."
"It is easy to start something and work from scratch."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"We only have major classifications for iOS and Android, but there are different brands that have different cycles of updates. If they can fine-tune it to make it more brand-specific, that would be even better."
"Sometimes, updating a client policy is very difficult. This needs to be improved."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"Lacking ability to leverage more iOS device management internally."

"The initial setup should be simplified."
"From an identity perspective, there is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to integration with other solutions. I would say it needs more capabilities in terms of direct integrations, including cloud identity solution integrations."

"Sometimes, we have challenges with remote patching and remote version upgrades."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite complex."
