We performed a comparison between Citrix Endpoint Management and Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution has reduced the risk of security breaches by 30%."
"The product has eased the deployment of Microsoft apps to the devices. We can manage it properly. We can control it and push the updates. Another company helped us with the deployment. However, we can do it internally."
"We have a BYOD policy, and this solution helps us manage our devices."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities."
"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."
"I like how Microsoft Intune lets me lock down the email profile and make it accessible only on certain 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 MAM applications of the product are great."
"We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices."
"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture."
"A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."
"ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users."
"The solution offers excellent documentation that is easily available online."
"Microsoft Mobility and EMS include Intune for Mobility, which provides mobile device management and mobile application management. With mobile device management, you can control the entire device in an organization."
"The solution is very good at securing files. For example, if I forward a secure document, it's blocked from others, as I can send it with restrictions in relation to who can open it."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product is centralized and we can use it for security purposes."
"You can scale the solution up or down by department."
"A good feature that is present is MAM or Mobile Application Management. We can deploy this feature on the device, which is not managed by the organization. If I apply some security configuration on a personal device, the user would be really disappointed. What we do instead is that we give all access to the applications related to corporate and ask the users to use the application. We secure the application by putting the security features on the applications and not on the users' devices. This way, the users are happy, and we also meet our company's compliance standards. Then, everyone is happy."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"Deploying an app can be a complex process due to dependencies."
"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely 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."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks."
"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."
"The tool’s battery usage was high."
"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."
"Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features."
"The licensing is quite expensive."
"Its performance needs enhancement."
"Technical support could be improved. Sometimes they use a third party that's not so knowledgeable in the product and that can slow down things a bit."
"The licensing can be messy at times."
"We did the deployment with the help of Microsoft's consultants. But sometimes, we found it difficult to educate the application developers to integrate."
"The auditing and reporting could be updated and upgraded. I would like to see light applications because they consume a lot of the device's memory at present."
"Microsoft's feature management is based on licenses. Microsoft follows ethical licensing and hence do not restrict the use of it."
"Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security is expensive."
