We performed a comparison between SOTI MobiControl 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."For our office workers who are not based in Norway, when we order the PC, we can do some of the settings for them. These are standardized settings. We can set them up exactly as they are in Norway so that they're the same."
"It is a very helpful solution."
"Agile and easy to deploy MDM solution that covers the maximum number of policies. Stable, scalable, and with knowledgeable technical support."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution."
"The performance of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The solution is scalable. We currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to deploy apps on the fly. We're able to update and deploy new applications, directly from the cloud. That's been a huge feature for us. Instead of putting hands on each of these devices - and we're talking thousands of devices - we can manage it all from the backend."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that I can manage my devices remotely."
"One of the most valuable features is the ease of moving items from one configuration to another; it's a Windows-like setup. Also, the admin console is very easy to manage and to move through."
"The installation is very straightforward."
"It is very reliable, and their support is excellent."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It's been very stable over the past few years."
"The most valuable feature of SOTI MobiControl is the feature to control what software is on the equipment that is authorized."
"Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the tracking of the devices."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"We can do single sign-on and make use of the same user account to log into multiple applications."
"You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
"The most valuable feature is the security policies."
"It was easy to use."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The installation could be improved to be simplified."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"I expect Microsoft Intune to have more features in the cloud because there are two major functionalities that we need to be added. This is software metering and license management. These functionalities, for now, must be on-premise. For this purpose, we have set up a SQL Server and I hope that in near future this option will be in the cloud in Microsoft Intune."
"There should be more support for macOS. Even though macOS is supported by Intune and Microsoft is working very hard to get more features into Intune to manage macOS, that's one thing they can give a lot more attention to."
"Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best."
"The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"The security features should be improved."
"The remote screen of the solution gets stuck at times. So, that needs to be improved."
"Companies like SOTI and Mobile Iron are working with Google to help them manage these devices and eliminate the use of bar code scanner sales and mobile device sales. That's kind of crazy."
"There could be a feature for user ID management."
"I have used Microsoft Intune but it is more complicated than SOTI MobiControl."
"SOTI MobiControl is very good for Android and Windows, but it should add a little bit on the Apple side because it doesn't have much control on the Apple side."
"I would like them to improve the process of enrolling Android devices. It's much more difficult to enroll Android devices than it is Windows CE devices. There are a lot more steps required."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
"SOTI MobiControl's user interface is very tough to handle and should be made more user-friendly."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."
"The setup was very difficult. It was not as easy as I had expected."
"The bigger vendors like VMware, Insight, and MobileIron can assign engineers to customers. You can work with them to develop the right competency to use the product."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
"There are other solutions that might be better for certain use cases. This is not an all-purpose solution."
"The solution is too complicated. A lot of end customers don't know how to start when they go into the console."
"There could be ease of integration within the environment. I didn't have any issues when using it, but the integration part was a bit difficult for the other team."
