Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in UEM (Unified Endpoint Management)."At the moment, Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"Microsoft's cloud comes with a lot of extra features that are free of charge."
"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"Internet-based access with security is what I have found to be most valuable. It is also a stable and scalable solution."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"It's normally able to meet 100% expectations of our customers."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"It's all about centralizing your data and making sure that your data is centralized and secure."
"If an end-user has an issue with a device, the administration has the ability to remote access the device after approval from the end-user."
"We recently integrated Workspace ONE with our intelligence report, and this is a great tool from a reporting point of view. In our daily business, we get several requests from businesses to provide an Adobe request for monitoring, whether it is for Android or iOS devices. The main benefit of this tool is that we can exclude the report for applications."
"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."
"The product enables us to access our internal applications from anywhere in the world."
"The solution's single plane of glass approach is beneficial. The endpoint management is very good and specific. One of their competitors is Intune, and you have leaks from other services within the Microsoft ecosystem."
"The most valuable features of VMware Workspace ONE are security and having support for all the latest features that are coming out from Apple. They're pretty fast at adopting new features. This is one of the most vital aspects of mobile device management systems."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"I have found this product excellent for test/dev environments. This is 90% of what I use this product for."
"The most valuable feature of the VMware Workstation is the ease to create a development environment. When you have different ongoing developments, you often need to create a lot of different development environments. With this workstation solution, you can have a development environment for all the things you develop."
"VMware Workstation is great for migrating and patching operating systems."
"We can undo some changes using the snapshot feature."
"The most valuable features of VMware Workstation are the speed of access and quality of upgrade. Those are the more important and pertinent aspects as far as we were concerned. Functionality and features were relevant for the customers. What a customer chose, we had to make sure that it operated."
"The product works well."
"VMware Workstation is easy to manage and understand."
"Microsoft needs to enhance device-level security, as sometimes when using Microsoft Intune, the device's operating system becomes stuck and requires a full uninstall to remove the Intune bug."
"We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks."
"The reports that are generated aren't so great. They don't give a lot of meaning so far, but that could be down to user knowledge than the actual reporting side of things. I'm not a big user of it, but I was a bigger user of MaaS360, and we used to be able to run weekly and monthly reports. In the case of any deviations. we'd get a warning immediately. That's not so easy to do or to get in place for Intune. This could be just a user issue, but when I compare both, that's the only thing that's lacking for me."
"There is room for improvement, particularly in terms of compatibility, extending beyond the well-known major brands."
"It should be easier to define policies and comply with those policies."
"The installation is very easy. However, to be able to configure it you will need special knowledge, such as training or self-studies to have a proper level of security. There are many settings one has to understand before being able to implement Microsoft Intune."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"They need to integrate more with security options."
"In terms of the inventory management side, as in the invoice management, the stock management and the entire inventory of an organization is lagging a bit in comparison to Blackberry or other EMM solutions."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA 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."
"When we had some issues, the support did not respond quickly, and they did not provide a solution."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need for discounts to be offered by the solution since it is something that any organization can expect from the product."
"The initial setup should be simplified."
"I would like to see more service notifications."
"VMware Workspace ONE can improve in virtual reality. Customers are now looking toward virtual reality devices. Though it supports virtual reality, it's treated as an Android device. Customers want to deal with VR devices, they want a specific VR tool. Not an Android device VR tool."
"The big issue that we've always had with VMware, was the disparity between what was presented for a Windows-based client and a Linux-based client. The Windows client was always two or three releases ahead of the Linux client. We always wanted VMware to change and improve the feature sets between the client connector on Linux and on Windows."
"The price of VMware Workstation is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"The product could provide the features available in Microsoft Hyper-V."
"The solution freezes sometimes."
"VMware Workstation’s scalability could be improved."
"The price of VMware Workstation could improve."
"VMware Workstation uses more resources like CPU and disk space, especially the CPU, which is a shortcoming that needs improvement."
"For some virtual machine configurations, you have to go to the text editor and make the configuration changes, which could be improved."
