We performed a comparison between Citrix Endpoint Management and SOTI MobiControl based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) 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."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."
"It has improve our organization through the remote management of non-domain joined devices."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"Conditional access helps me control uncontrolled access."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices."
"One key feature is secure application delivery, which enables the secure delivery of mobile and web applications to end-user devices. This ensures data protection and compliance with corporate policies."
"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture."
"The MAM applications of the product are great."
"A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."
"ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users."
"The company's support is the best. That'd be the number one thing."
"The installation is very straightforward."
"The feature I find most valuable within Soti is the ability to reset or unlock a device. A lot of the devices that we use are in the field. We have locations in Dallas, San Diego, Seattle, Washington, and Phoenix, Arizona and there isn't always someone, within our company, who is managing these devices. Sometimes it's the doctors' offices that we partner with where they use these devices. Having the ability to remotely reset a device or unlock a device has been super-crucial for me."
"The remote control we have helps us a lot."
"It helps in enrolling, managing, and relocating the devices quickly."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Among the valuable features are managing configurations of all devices and being able to remote into devices... We send out configurations for each site that has its devices. Each site has a different configuration, and SOTI manages each configuration for each site"
"The most valuable features are remote control and geo-fencing."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"Additional application deployment options e.g. MSI deployment with more complex parameters or additional side-by-side files, and non-MSI deployment options."
"I'd suggest adding more features for macOS in Intune. There should be more functionality for managing macOS. There should be a better capability for pushing things down on macOS. Currently, Intune is not capable of managing macOS at the same level as Windows."
"The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded."
"There are a couple of issues with stability."
"The most important thing is reporting. They should improve their reporting. They should give a free hand to users. In SCCM, I can create my own reports. For example, in SCCM, I can create an inventory report for my PC or for all PCs, but in Intune, we don't have an option to create any report. Microsoft claims that Intune is a successor of SCCM, but SCCM is more powerful than Intune. So, they should develop Intune more and make it equivalent to SCCM. Then, their product will be great in the market."
"Support for inventory management of Apple devices should be added."
"Citrix often depends on other services like backend data centers, network security, and application firewalls. Issues in these areas can be misinterpreted as Citrix issues by users."
"The tool’s battery usage was high."
"Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features."
"Citrix needs to improve the architecture. They also need to strengthen the application integration. They keep referring to some things to be required as security, and they keep selling the next level and on-premise separately. They should give the customer the opportunity to decide whether they want to use the next level on-premise or on-cloud, but they should not charge additional fees if the customer wants to deploy the next level on-premise because the customer is already being charged as the end user. They should allow next level on-premise optimization without any additional charges."
"They could make it easier to configure. While setting it up from scratch, I find many networking issues, and I have to call our network people for them, but our network people don't understand. It's a nightmare to try to communicate to them that this port needs to be open, or this needs to be opened here or there. Networking people are very security conscious, and they're wary of doing anything. So, if you can't tell them exactly why they need to do something, they get really paranoid. SOTI could do a better job of making the configuration of their software easier to understand and more clear. The prerequisites should be clear. They should clearly specify what is required to get this software working. There should be a list of prerequisites that is easier to understand and trust."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
"Reporting could be better. When I try to run a report, it doesn't have a filter or even a feature where I can choose what I have in the report. That's been a struggle since the first time I used it so I just don't touch it anymore."
"The remote screen of the solution gets stuck at times. So, that needs to be improved."
"Maybe if there were tiers, it would be better as then companies could lower the pricing by going to the lower deployment model."
"I wish I had the ability to select an app singly and install or refresh it, instead of having to go into the application controls and assign it to a group. I wish there was a spot that listed all my applications. I could go into a single one and refresh or update. It's not very easily accessible, per application."
"If the interface was a little bit more intuitive, more easily allowed me to get to where I want to be, that would be a little bit nicer, as far as the file sync goes."
"The documentation could be improved in SOTI MobiControl."
