We performed a comparison between Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM) and Citrix Endpoint Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."
"I like that it's very good and very simple. I found that we just needed to have a proper subscription for an Intune tenant, and from the subscription, if we have the right role assigned, like the global admin role or the owner role, we can use Microsoft cloud resources. With the help of that, we can do many things like setting up Microsoft Intune in the cloud to create our virtual machines. All these can be done, and the steps are very simple. I really liked it. I like features like Windows Auto-Enrollment. I like it very much because whenever you supply it to the end-user, it will be ready to use immediately. The end-user only needs to provide the user credentials, and then they are good to go. I also really like Cloud PC, which was recently launched on Azure."
"It is a helpful tool to manage BYOD policies."
"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."
"I would say the biggest benefit is the single-pane view. There's no jumping around multiple UI's to do your overall management."
"Conditional access helps me control uncontrolled access."
"It's easy to manage and easy to configure."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"The most valuable features of Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM) are its ability to do geofencing for devices, manage thousands of devices with only a push of a button, and quick application deployment in seconds. It's amazing. For example, in an education scenario, you can deploy an application update for thousands of iPads in two clicks."
"It's extremely competitive and very good for a product in this sphere."
"Meraki Systems Manager's most valuable features are password management, device tracking, remote resetting and wiping, device management, inventory management, and easy policy deployment."
"We can reconfigure a client’s setup remotely with minimal effort."
"The solution is simple."
"The proprietary standards and modules are the most valuable features."
"It’s helped us manage our endpoints."
"The cloud dashboard's analytics data is particularly valuable, giving me insights into user activities and making it easy to track and manage devices."
"ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users."
"The MAM applications of the product are great."
"A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."
"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture."
"We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices."
"One key feature is secure application delivery, which enables the secure delivery of mobile and web applications to end-user devices. This ensures data protection and compliance with corporate policies."
"The security features should be improved."
"One big problem with Microsoft is that they're changing the names of the products quite often, or they're quite consistently doing so. Intune is now Endpoint administration. Constantly switching the user interface or the administrative interface makes it quite hard to keep pace. If you are on a two-week holiday and you come back and look at the same screen you have looked at for the last couple of months, it looks different, which is annoying. Changing things around all the time doesn't make it easy."
"There should be more focus on mobile device security and integration."
"An area for improvement is the absence of seamless integration, particularly with external dashboards."
"The technical support could be improved."
"Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance."
"The add-ons must be integrated into the solution."
"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a four out of ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy. It is more difficult."
"The tool's pricing needs to be more flexible like Cisco's."
"They need to allocate more energy in terms of their offering to devices that are not Apple devices."
"The maintenance is average."
"The solution can be expensive."
"Meraki is limiting our connections."
"The cost of installing this solution can be more expensive depending on who is doing the installation. Cisco is very expensive, and I'd like to see a reduction in cost."
"There are problems with the connection on the client side, and the app that was deployed could be better."
"The tool’s battery usage was high."
"Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features."
"Support for inventory management of Apple devices should be added."
"Citrix needs to improve the architecture. They also need to strengthen the application integration. They keep referring to some things to be required as security, and they keep selling the next level and on-premise separately. They should give the customer the opportunity to decide whether they want to use the next level on-premise or on-cloud, but they should not charge additional fees if the customer wants to deploy the next level on-premise because the customer is already being charged as the end user. They should allow next level on-premise optimization without any additional charges."
"Citrix often depends on other services like backend data centers, network security, and application firewalls. Issues in these areas can be misinterpreted as Citrix issues by users."
