We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Microsoft Security Suite solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"The technical support of Microsoft Intune is good."
"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."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"The most valuable features in Microsoft Intune for me are application deployment, Defender deployment, and asset management."
"It provides control over all mobile devices that are being connected to the corporate network."
"One of the valuable features of Purview is the ability to create a legal hold on a user's account within the compliance portal. That's pretty useful when it comes to any litigation or if you want to redeem the content within a mailbox, OneDrive, or a generic public SharePoint site."
"The product has improved compliance and confidence. We are aware of the data that is leaving our organization. It provides confidence in data management and information storage."
"The most valuable features are identifying sensitive data and issuing alerts."
"The auto-labeling feature is definitely the most valuable feature. It goes in and labels the documents for you in different repositories. It covers the Outlook and Exchange repositories along with SharePoint and OneDrive. It is really helpful in those areas."
"Because everything is on Microsoft and we use Azure, integration with the product is easier. That's the most important thing when you use many Microsoft products. It's easier to integrate everything in one place."
"It has helped our clients to reduce the time to action on insider threats because it can be integrated."
"I rate Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's stability a ten out of ten."
"We can use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to manage devices and site policies."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"For an existing customer who has an SCCM, it would need to be upgraded to an MECM first before I can introduce Microsoft Intune."
"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."
"The synchronization could be improved."
"They should make it easier to order it, however, that's generally true for everything from Microsoft."
"They could also make it easier to use because there are some other products that may be easier to use in terms of the look and feel of the dashboard."
"There is still a gap between SCCM and Intune, especially in the reporting, inventory, and software deployment areas."
"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."
"A site can have different containers where you store data. We have always wanted to apply compliance, labels, and policies at the container level, rather than to an outer shell or at the site level. That is something we have been looking forward to and I believe Microsoft is already planning something like that."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's licensing is expensive."
"The support is poor."
"There is a lot of ambiguity when you are setting up labels, such as sensitive information labels. It is a little daunting at first if you don't have prior knowledge, and there is a little bit of a learning curve for setting up the labels. Some of the setup wizards could be more helpful from an AI perspective. They can streamline the setup through more AI technologies so that you don't have to jump through so many hoops and different menus and dropdowns. It would be useful to have a setup wizard that is more hands-off and engaging for setting up the information type labels. If you tell them this is what we're trying to protect, it should basically start to lead you down that path of best practices. Such a feature would be great."
"The AI advancements can improve the false positives."
"They do not provide language options beyond the ones already available, so our language option is missing."
"The scalability, in terms of the portal, could be more user-friendly. Sometimes I have faced difficulties in identifying the options."
"There is a need for improvements, particularly in ensuring that file-based recognition is more reliable and comprehensive."
