We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Red Hat Satellite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Configuration Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I can see that the patch management process is much improved with the bundled patch management option available in Microsoft Intune compared to the KPI deployment required by the other deployment solutions."
"We have a BYOD policy, and this solution helps us manage our devices."
"The solution is easy to use and it has good performance."
"One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Intune is that it brings the management of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and even Linux under a single pane of glass."
"Fortunately, now everything is streamlined into a single, unified platform."
"I believe that the solution is actually in Gartner's top quadrant at the moment for mobile device management."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that you don't have to expose your mission-critical environment to the Internet. With the Satellite system in place, it acts as a barrier between your Red Hat infrastructure and the public Internet."
"The product is convenient to use."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is vulnerability management."
"It has been a stable solution...It is a totally scalable solution."
"The product allows us to handle patching for multiple servers at a time manually."
"Previously, we were using one server to update from a different repository over the HTTP. We had to manually manage the updates on the repository server. Satellite made the process easier."
"It cuts down significantly on the administrative time it takes to patch systems in a large environment."
"We've been getting reasonable support from Red Hat."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"Additional application deployment options e.g. MSI deployment with more complex parameters or additional side-by-side files, and non-MSI deployment options."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"Onboarding of endpoint devices is not straightforward. The onboarding process was a little heavier than I thought it would be. That's the key improvement area. Obviously, the more control you have over the devices, the better it is."
"I'd like some more reporting so that I don't have to delve into PowerShell and I can pull more of the local device information such as memory, apps installed, etc. It would be nice to be able to see the apps that are present there but might not be managed. For example, if they installed 7Zip, it could report that back via an installed program or feature to see what was currently installed."
"We need the capabilities of the Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) to be enhanced through Intune instead of Azure."
"The dashboard of Satellite is not encouraging. It does not adequately showcase all the functionality it offers."
"The product's automation capabilities need enhancement."
"It has not been significantly updated in a while."
"It is difficult to update and maintain."
"Automation can always be improved and refined to continue to make it better."
"There could be a feature to simplify the process without the requirement of any patch manager subscription."
"I would like to see the scalability, user interface, and reporting features improved and for the solution to be simplified. Instead of having complex engineering, it should be simple for the user."
"The documentation could be better."
