Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in UEM (Unified Endpoint Management)."I like the fact that it's integrated with the rest of the Microsoft products, so customers can manage it from their Office 365 portal or Azure portal."
"The solution is easy to use and it has good performance."
"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."
"The most valuable feature for us is the security, including risk analysis and patch management."
"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."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"It has a useful device management feature."
"The performance of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The tool's consolidation is pretty quick."
"It is easy to use, easy to integrate, and is stable. It's scalable as well."
"The protection for web-based applications was helpful for my colleagues who didn't want a particular application on their devices. And the non-web access protection was more for our developers because they were writing and building code on their computers. Prisma Access was able to protect them."
"The features I find most valuable is WildFire, user integration, and the basic technology features."
"Security is absolutely spot-on, really top-notch. It's the result of all the components that come together, such as the HIP [Host Information Profile] and components like Forcepoint, providing end-user content inspection, and antivirus. It incorporates DLP features and that's fantastic because Prisma Access makes sure that all of the essential prerequisites are in place before a user can log in or can be tunneled into."
"Prisma helped us build a moat around our production systems. It's now impossible to log into our production from a non-MDM laptop. Prisma Access provides decent security overall."
"Its hands-off security and the fact that we don't have to maintain it are the most valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to join your network and provide access through the VPN."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"They could also make it easier to use because there are some other products that may be easier to use in terms of the look and feel of the dashboard."
"In future releases, I would like to see better integration with Apple products."
"No option to do end-to-en macOS management. Slow implementation of policies."
"It would be great if Intune offered better data protection controls for BYOD Windows PCs."
"Data leak prevention can be integrated into it. Currently, it does not have data leak prevention."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"Sometimes, we encountered a portal crash. When we told Palo Alto they said it might be the browser or cache, but I think they need to improve it on their side."
"They automatically update and they should give us time to fully understand what they're updating so that we can make sure it doesn't impact production."
"Dependencies of applications sometimes is a bit confusing."
"The licensing model isn't flexible enough. It's an all-or-nothing model. Other providers in the market allow you to buy modules or add-ons separately. With Prisma Access, you have to purchase the same module for all users."
"The documentation is generally good, but they could provide a more detailed description of all the configuration steps. I have to search for information or call support. Palo Alto could add more knowledge base articles about configuration with screenshots and walkthroughs. That would be helpful. When configuring a product, you want to see examples of how it is done."
"The frequency of updates could be reduced."
"From any improvement perspective, the product's compatibility issues with Linux need to be resolved."
"They can add some new characteristics. For example, when an incident triggers, they can automatically send a template for a particular match that is related to the policy. We don't have that right now. It is something to improve. There could be more automation for certain actions. For example, for a particular group, it can send an administrator alert to their manager. It was one of the concerns of our customers."
