Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in UEM (Unified Endpoint Management)."It has a useful device management feature."
"The features I found most valuable in Intune are its user visibility and troubleshooting options."
"I like that we can implement conditional access."
"It works pretty well for us."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"The stability is good."
"The dashboards, the security, and the customization capabilities work very well for us."
"The biggest benefits of Intune are the ability to push changes and the added security. When we moved forward with Defender, we onboarded all those machines automatically. That helps dramatically. For a while, we were left with machines that weren't protected. We could see where people had done things they shouldn't have done, and Defender saved our skins a few times. It didn't happen a lot, but it happened enough that it made us glad we made that decision."
"ShareFile, in particular, is valuable with its ease of sharing, and the best category security that is in the hands of users."
"The product is capable of acting in many different ways to help secure architecture."
"The MAM applications of the product are great."
"We have seen improvements in compliance management on the devices."
"A valuable feature of Citrix Endpoint Management is that it's stable. The stability is not a challenge among the move to the cloud."
"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 solution helps with principal decisions. It also helps with the security and configuration of many technologies."
"It is customer-friendly. It is quite easy for our users to connect. There is also the flexibility of the features."
"The flexibility in their management is great."
"The stability of the product is its most valuable feature."
"What I like the most about Pulse Connect Secure is that it's user-friendly. It's easy to use. You just need to connect, and that's it."
"The new UI that they are providing right now is very good."
"From an end-user perspective, the setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable feature is being able to securely connect and use virtual desktops."
"It's the granularity: 'Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?' It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar."
"We haven't really gone through all the features of Intune. We are just discovering them. Every day, we see a new feature that we want to apply, but what will be great for Intune is to be able to deploy apps in a simple fashion. We should be able to easily install various apps on the Windows platform, iOS, and Android. Currently, we have to write some scripts. It's not as straightforward as we would like it to be. It should be simplified so that we can do it just with three clicks—next, next, finish—without needing to write a script."
"I would like the ability to install the agent on devices from suppliers, which would enable us to implement a zero-trust strategy for guest devices."
"There is room for improvement in integrating additional features such as Purview and SharePoint activities into Intune."
"There is still a gap between SCCM and Intune, especially in the reporting, inventory, and software deployment areas."
"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."
"It would be better if I could integrate it with my core group policy. I would like to have a group policy in my current environment, which has strict control, but those things are still missing. Although it has maximum compliance and security, it's not available on-premise."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"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."
"The tool’s battery usage was high."
"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."
"Requires integrating with ABM before enabling some of the features."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"Pulse Connect Secure could improve the reporting, it is lacking in detail and should take the report automatically."
"I would like the solution to be more secure and compatible. It also needs to improve integration with other systems."
"User experience and after-sales support could be better. For example, over the last couple of years, when this COVID scenario was going on, there were multiple attacks on these types of solutions. SQL has been attacked numerous times, and there were a lot of vulnerabilities, and our customers had to update and upgrade the devices every two weeks or every month. This was a headache. It could also be more scalable."
"The product's price is an area where improvements are required."
"The product could use additional dashboards."
"The most valuable features of Pulse Connect Secure are the user-friendly connection and interconnecting."
"The support team of the product needs improvement. Sometimes we have issues with multiple authentications, but there is no help from the support team."
