We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiDB [EOL] and Microsoft Intune based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, Imperva, Oracle and others in Database Security."We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects."
"It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability."
"The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."
"The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security."
"The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."
"The most valuable features are the ones that make sure that the deployment is of a standard operating system and the Zero Touch deployment, which is very useful. This allows users to have an out of box experience."
"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"The most valuable feature is probably mobile device management. Small businesses are coming under greater scrutiny and requirements for compliance as time goes on. We don't have to worry about a VPN because we can manage these devices, control company data, and lock users out. If needed, we can remotely wipe devices and deadman-switch them."
"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."
"One of the main features of the solution is it allows the management of many devices in different ways."
"Intune provides full visibility into all active mobile device users. If their devices are noncompliant with our security policies, I have the flexibility to update them remotely."
"While I don't think you can ever have full visibility and control, Intune certainly allows us to see the applications being used and tells us if things like Windows patches aren't applied to machines. It does a good job. That visibility makes life a little easier."
"The ability to manage devices with different sets of policies is most valuable."
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved."
"They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly."
"I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet."
"I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption."
"Some use case analyses could be improved."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"They should improve its compatibility with other operating systems such as iOS and Linux. It supports Linux but they still need to work on the iOS part."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."
"The reporting needs to be a bit more interactive."
"The current Intune reporting functionality could benefit from some improvements."
"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"The documentation about the custom image setup could be better. Although Microsoft provides the steps to configure Intune or set up or deploy Intune, it doesn't have much information related to custom images. If you ask, "how can we deploy the custom image?" There is no information. The steps they mention ask you to connect to your on-premises environment or create your own image on the cloud itself once there is connectivity. But I needed to go to multiple websites to get all this information. I had to figure out how to upload the custom image if you want to use the on-premise custom image for Cloud PC. If you have the proper subscription, you must have the right access, like global admin or owner. Then you can add your custom image to that. There are no steps mentioned over there. Microsoft Intune doesn't have Chrome browser support. I would like to have that support because they will want it if we pitch the product to clients."
