We performed a comparison between AWS Config and Microsoft Intune 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."The initial setup is super easy, it takes like two minutes. Literally a one-click deployment."
"The solution is scalable and provides over 100 rules."
"Installing the instances and performing upgrades is smooth and clean."
"Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms. You can individualize it for your company with the Intune Company Portal app."
"Intune's unified endpoint management platform is invaluable."
"It's not working perfectly, but Microsoft's Autopilot offers great visibility into automated deployment solutions."
"Mobile device management is most valuable."
"The solution has reduced the risk of security breaches by 30%."
"It supports end-users who tend to lock their devices quite frequently. Its conditional access policy helps us keep the users logged into their devices."
"We are using the mobile feature, and we are also using MDM to lock the devices, to push restrictions, et cetera"
"Application deployment and keeping the devices secure no matter where they are, by having this cloud solution — that has been great."
"The solution is missing a configuration that can assist us when writing our programming languages."
"There is room for improvement in built-in tools, they are not up to the mark."
"The reboot process for AWS instances could be improved. Microsoft Azure does not have this problem, so AWS could consider making their instances more robust. You would not need to reboot your instances frequently to replace the hardware and stuff. They can look for a better approach or mechanism to improve in the future. The concern is that you need to plan for the outage when you reboot an instance. You need to have a maintenance window where you can properly reboot the instance without affecting your application. When Amazon announces that you need to reboot an instance and are not ready, this becomes a problem."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"The reporting needs to be a bit more interactive."
"Intune doesn't provide much control over Windows servers. It's something we struggle with."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"For an existing customer who has an SCCM, it would need to be upgraded to an MECM first before I can introduce Microsoft Intune."
"No option to do end-to-en macOS management. Slow implementation of policies."
"The scalability could be improved, and like most other MDM products, Intune is good but not 100% there yet."
