We performed a comparison between BMC TrueSight Server Automation 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 most valuable feature is its ability to remediate quickly and efficiently across a number of IT assets at the same time. It takes away manual efforts from the team to go out and fix those vulnerabilities through patching, conflict updates, etc."
"With BMC, we even configured applications, like IE or things that were Java-related. When we scheduled the jobs, it worked fine. It saved us time and there was no need for resources to monitor them."
"Compliance is also huge... By tying it to Atrium Orchestrator, our workflow tool, we'll be able to have a closed loop where we identify a compliance issue, cut CRs, get them approved, and then be able to execute these CRs and more seamlessly fix these issues on the fly."
"Can standardize patching and deployments across affiliates."
"The most important feature is the schedulings."
"Among the most valuable features is its flexibility and ability to work across multiple operating systems. Being able to execute some form of data collection and not have to worry about whether I'm working on a Linux box, or a Windows box, or the underlying OS, I can do these collections, get these results, and put them together in a uniform format which makes it easier to present back to management."
"The best feature of the solution is patch automation."
"The product's valuable feature is its ability to conduct patching for multiple servers simultaneously."
"This product works very well for companies already using the full Microsoft suite."
"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."
"It works well if you have a Microsoft environment."
"We use a local Active Directory, but we weren't able to manage all our on-site systems without a solution like Intune, and we needed to deploy software like VPNs and other things. It's seamless now to to this through Intune."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"The best feature is that we don't need to worry about downtime. We don't need to worry about the network connections of our office or the virtual private network. Everything is being done through the internet. Using Intune Autopilot, we can configure and deploy everything to the devices."
"Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."
"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."
"Resource management on the base servers is sluggish and could be improved."
"We would like to see this solution handle more multitasking."
"Without any knowledge of the product, we used the KB articles to start working. As a result, we definitely did not have full knowledge of BMC BladeLogic... They need to provide a minimum of knowledge with training on YouTube or somewhere else."
"I would like to see more container integration in the next release of this solution."
"The setup of this suite is very complicated. It needs to be simplified."
"Needs more use cases into compliance management and the remediation process."
"I would like to see a better methodology for handling REST calls and integration into the APIs. They add new APIs as they add functions, but they've missed some from older components which they still haven't added in. Some of the APIs are there but the CLI calls are not there."
"Scaling the environment during setup at larger organizations with 10,000 employees gets complicated."
"In future releases, I would like to see better integration with Apple products."
"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"Enhancements for managing MacOS more comprehensively would be beneficial."
"The solution could improve its flexibility."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"Technical support is not that great."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"It would help if administrators could pinpoint the exact location of a stolen device to help law enforcement retrieve it and apprehend the suspect."
