Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)."It is a helpful tool to manage BYOD policies."
"This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"A valuable feature is user enrollment, where users can enroll their devices in their organizations themselves."
"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."
"Intune's unified endpoint management platform is invaluable."
"Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."
"It is a very helpful solution."
"The ability to send configurations to our systems is valuable, particularly as we don't have a regular Windows AD server. Our current environment doesn't have a Windows AD, which limits our ability to push GPOs. However, this is where the solution can step in and help us push policies."
"Tenable is the leading product for vulnerability scanning."
"I like Tenable.sc's analytics and reporting. You can also configure your on-prem network monitors to talk to your Tenable.sc control panel."
"We really love the Security Center dashboard. It basically performs vulnerability scanning and then outputs a vulnerability data."
"Very customizable with a lot of templates."
"The scans are the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The most important features are the dashboard and reporting. The dashboard provides statistics with graphs and bar charts for our management."
"The most valuable features of Tenable SC are scanning, reporting, dashboards, and automation."
"Has a great advanced scanning feature."
"Additional application deployment options e.g. MSI deployment with more complex parameters or additional side-by-side files, and non-MSI deployment options."
"From a new user's perspective, it may be a little overwhelming because there are quite a few things to look at in the console, however, once you are sort of acclimated and are familiar with your core functions, it's fairly simple and straightforward."
"I would like to see easier pushdowns. Currently, we have to package our own software and then push it. Intune can make that way easier and integrate applications, such as Zoom and Adobe Acrobat, that are used by a lot of enterprise or corporate organizations."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations."
"I would like to see micro VPN. I like the way that some of the other providers have done something similar where, as you open that app on an end-point device, it creates a micro VPN straight into your device, which is quite a nice little feature. Also, Microsoft Intune relies heavily on its fellow products in the suite. It would be nice if Microsoft Intune could stand on its own two feet."
"The configuration could be better by consolidating options and making it simpler."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"The tool's initial configuration is not so easy."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"The web application is not very functional."
"Tenable SC could improve by making the creation of the initial reports easier that correspond to our network."
"For downloading reports, we have to go to the scan and then we have to go to the reports and download the Excel or CSV or PDF. I think these menus and clicks can be minimized."
"I think the vendor training provided for Tenable.sc could be a lower price. It's quite expensive for the training."
"If I want to have a very low-managed scan policy, it's a lot of work to create something which is very basic. If I use a tool like Nmap, all I have to do is download it, install it, type in the command, and it's good to go. In Security Center, I have to go through a lot of work to create a policy that's very basic."
"The solution is expensive."
