"The most valuable feature of this solution is the multi-platform support."
"The feature with the highest rating for me is its employee management. I can also praise how versatile it is in terms of operating systems. It has good support for multiple operating systems and can easily manage them all. Not just that, but it can also support any kind of tool that can be run on all these operating systems."
"Good device management and good integration with third parties."
"The product enables us to access our internal applications from anywhere in the world."
"No issues with scalability."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it enables us to remotely manage the devices, which is its purpose, and to push applications to the mobile devices from the portal."
"We find it to be reliable."
"Microsoft Remote Desktop Services needs to improve its security."
"There have been some network issues in the solution. So, when we used to connect it, the solution suddenly got disconnected. So the network part needs to be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see better performance over slower networks, and integration with Linux, but this is something that we're going to get out of Microsoft in terms of a unified solution."
"The solution is unsuitable for direct external internet connections. You must set up a VPN and password handling to use it."
"Security in the connection between us and our clients' servers is something that can be improved."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"We'd like them to continue to improve on security."
"We encounter challenges with portability, especially for users of iOS devices."
"I would like to see some integration with native Microsoft products such as Anti-value."
"The only downside to the solution is that the dashboard is very confusing."
"It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users."
"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 integration on the application side could improve."
"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."
"VMware Workspace ONE for the new users or the new clients that they try to procure and learn it, there can have difficulties. It does not have user-friendly portals. The portal seems to be more user-friendly in Microsoft solutions."
"When it comes to deployment and maintaining security, there should be an integrated console where you have a singular view of all of the products from the same OEM."
