We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
"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." "The most important thing for me is the autopilot feature." "The dashboards, the security, and the customization capabilities work very well for us." "We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution." "This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions." "Maturity makes it a stable product." "The most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities." "The most valuable feature for us is the security, including risk analysis and patch management." | "The management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users." "In terms of valuable features, we liked the lock feature, the roll-out white feature, and the find feature. I think that Sophos had a GPS locator, so you could figure out where the phone was from a GPS location." |
Cons | |
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite." "I would like to see the ability to deploy custom packages as a Windows 64-bit package, as opposed to the Windows 32-bit, which is the only one available now." "It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation." "There are items that require improvements. One is the controls from iOS." "The reporting needs to be a bit more interactive." "There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security." "The configuration could be better by consolidating options and making it simpler." "There's quite a lot of development that they can do within their Intune dashboard. I think there are too many lines hyperlinked to move you around. Others, in contrast, give you a simple dashboard and an intuitive administrative walkthrough." | "We would like to see graphics showing the use of each device." "In terms of what could be improved, the initial configuration and setup of the environment could probably be made a little bit easier. There are so many pieces that go into it. Intune is absolutely insane and Sophos is better, but it still is a bit complex to get it all set up correctly." |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits." "The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it." "The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied." "The price of Intune is often included as part of a bundle with other Microsoft licenses, which makes it somewhat cheaper." "Licensing depends on how you are providing support to your enterprise, whether it's device-based or user-based." "We work with the subscription rather than a server license. I think it's economical this way because we don't have to have a server license for that, and I think that works in our favor." | Information Not Available |
