Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem.""Intune device restriction policies enable me to enforce limitations on the device, like blocking the mobile camera or restricting the employees from using and inserting USB devices, including thumb drives and flash drives.""If the product works, remote access will be a benefit. To this point we have not had reason to have confidence in achieving that access.""It's easy to deploy a configuration or policy to a system, especially when you don't have Azure AD. Now we are talking to all these small and medium-sized customers who don't necessarily have an on-premise Windows Active Directory. If they have invested in Office 365 Premium, this functionality becomes available to them.""Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments.""The performance of Microsoft Intune is good.""It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails.""The stability is good."

More Microsoft Intune Pros →

"It allows us to improve our security and prevent company files and data leaks.""Since the software is launched directly from the computer, not remotely delivered, it has minimized latency and response time.""We don't need to go to the physical office, and it only requires minimal supervision or assistance from our IT Team."

Cons
"They should improve its compatibility with other operating systems such as iOS and Linux. It supports Linux but they still need to work on the iOS part.""I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product.""Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention.""Microsoft Intune is not user-friendly to manage and has room for improvement.""We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks.""We need the capabilities of the Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) to be enhanced through Intune instead of Azure.""The security features should be improved.""Microsoft Intune lacks the ability to provide seamless remote assistance or remote control."

More Microsoft Intune Cons →

"It would be better to have the back end more efficient.""Currently, Venn only uses two platforms/applications: Windows and Mac. It would be great if they could also add more platforms since some BYOD employees might be using an application other than Windows or Mac - for example, Linux.""We'd like to see a bit more done with the deployment capabilities."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Microsoft Intune stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to secure all devices under its management and the flexibility that the solution offers its users.

    A computing services manager notes, "Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."

    The head of IT engineering at a financial services company writes, "The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types: we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager (MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company details on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."

    Venn Software is a powerful platform lauded for its robust features, intuitive UI, and responsive customer support. Users appreciate its scalability, customization options, and seamless integration capabilities. However, a few reviews mention occasional performance issues and a steep learning curve, making it challenging for beginners. Based on user reviews, Venn Software provides a reliable solution for businesses seeking advanced functionality, but newcomers may require additional time and support to fully utilize its potential.
