"It provides control over all mobile devices that are being connected to the corporate network."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"There is a single pane of glass for user access and a single sign-on facility for the user. If you have already logged in to Microsoft Azure or on-premises, you can redirect directly to Microsoft Endpoint Manager, monitor all your security threats, and analyze the data associated with the application in a single, unified way."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Microsoft Intune is its seamless integration with Azure Active Directory, offering capabilities akin to Group Policy Objects."
"By using Microsoft Intune we can control which websites the users can go to and it provides a secure environment for our employees using their laptops that are having access from home. We have installed Intune to control the user's environment minimizing the chances of any hacking."
"It is quite policy-enabled, so you can build pretty much any policy to manage remote endpoints."
"The solution is easy to use."
"It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution. Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature."
"The solution is easy to work with. I like its stability and flexibility."
"Installing the packages remotely and remote control are the most valuable features. There are around 100 pieces or devices, and the only way to send a package to a device is by connecting to the PC and then manually sending the package. By using Avalanche, we can send a package to all devices with one click. It is very stable and easy to use. Their technical support is also very good. We have implemented this solution for our clients, and they are satisfied with this solution. It does what it is meant to do."
"The most useful feature of Avalanche is remote control — especially the ability to remotely install packages to many devices all at once. When the client has, for example, 100 devices needing updates, it would take far too long to update each device individually. But with Avalanche, we just connect to all the devices through the PC and send the updates out with one click."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Avalanche are the remote control and the file transfer."
"The terminal remediation feature is valuable."
"They always add more features to this product."
"The utmost importance lies in mobile security and its performance."

"The management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users."
"The security features work well."
"I like the level of interaction that the product offers with the other products in our company's environment."
"The solution provides us with data protection."
"One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password."
"When somebody has a customized application or their own company's application, we cannot deploy that application."
"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."
"In terms of what can be improved, I am looking for better enhancements regarding Apple management, not only on the mobile device, but also on the laptop."
"The product needs to upgrade itself when the server is overloaded."
"Microsoft Intune needs to improve the initial login process."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"It's only good for a Microsoft environment."
"Due to the abundance of features, there's a lot to organize, which makes managing and setting up the solution challenging. The setup is immense, and it would be good to see improvement in this area."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior."
"Because our clients are all very satisfied with Ivanti from their side, there is little I can say about room for improvement. However, I think that to stay competitive with other solutions offering a similiar solution, Ivanti could look into making their products more affordable."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"Its price could be improved. It could be cheaper. I would like to see a better approach for Android and an easy way to send packages and manage devices."
"The solution can improve by adding a kiosk mode option to the devices."

"It could be more secure."
"There may be necessary adjustments that need to be made because we are facing certain restrictions within the work profile."
"For Sophos Mobile, it is difficult to get good support."

"The setup should be made easier."
"The features of Sophos Mobile could improve. The way the system works together could be better. Additionally, the integration with other Sophos products could improve."
"We would like to see graphics showing the use of each device."
