We performed a comparison between SOTI MobiControl and VMware Workspace ONE based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature."
"The solution appears to be stable and scalable."
"The standout features of Intune are its excellent mobile device management and highly effective application management capabilities."
"It is quite policy-enabled, so you can build pretty much any policy to manage remote endpoints."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"It is a very helpful solution."
"There has been a noticeable increase in productivity for both my organization and clients."
"The most valuable feature is the remote support because there are plants here where IT staff is not present. We can use it to provide support remotely."
"It is a scalable solution."
"SOTI MobiControl is the right solution for customers who want a reliable and low-cost MDM solution."
"One of the most valuable features is the remote control. If there are issues in the field, we can remote into those devices and see what kind of issues they are."
"Among the valuable features are managing configurations of all devices and being able to remote into devices... We send out configurations for each site that has its devices. Each site has a different configuration, and SOTI manages each configuration for each site"
"The most valuable features are remote control, remote monitoring of the mobile phone data, GPS localization, automobile network management, identity management, speaker logging, and remote management of mobile content."
"The other feature, that I have got to say is just leaps and bounds ahead of SOTI's competition, is the remote control feature. It's a true admin remote-control, so we don't have to have somebody on the other side of the device allowing us access to the device... We're able to pull up a tablet or phone and take pictures of it and we can actually videotape what's going on, on the device itself, and that's been huge."
"The SOTI MobiControl Assist tool is very good for remote controlling devices for troubleshooting. SOTI MobiControl is very helpful."
"The bigger vendors like VMware, Insight, and MobileIron can assign engineers to customers. You can work with them to develop the right competency to use the product."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"It is easy to start something and work from scratch."
"It was easy to use."
"Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."
"You can upgrade and migrate the existing group policies that we use for VMware Workspace ONE for the active directory. We can push the policies and group policies. We can migrate it and manage it from VMware Workspace ONE."
"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."
"VMware Workspace ONE is a platform that's really good at monitoring and managing mobile endpoints. It can be set up quickly and implemented easily. Technical support for this solution has always been good."
"Intune should be much more granular in terms of supporting more Android cellular devices."
"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 future releases, I would like to see better integration with Apple products."
"Intune has limited integration with non-Microsoft solutions."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"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."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"The solution could improve its flexibility."
"In the next release, they should make it easier to migrate."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the ability to customize devices and choosing what information goes onto them."
"You need to get used to the admin console. I think it could be improved. It's not the best I've seen. Certainly, the software has a lot of features so you necessarily have some complexity in the interface, but I've seen better. They could make it easier in certain aspects."
"Improving the reporting section would be beneficial for enhancing the product's overall functionality."
"They should improve the lockdown feature."
"Reporting could be better. When I try to run a report, it doesn't have a filter or even a feature where I can choose what I have in the report. That's been a struggle since the first time I used it so I just don't touch it anymore."
"The documentation could be improved in SOTI MobiControl."
"SOTI MobiControl's user interface is very tough to handle and should be made more user-friendly."
"I would like to see improvements made to both the support, and the pricing."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"VMware Workspace ONE for the new users or the new clients that they try to procure and learn it, there can have difficulties. It does not have user-friendly portals. The portal seems to be more user-friendly in Microsoft solutions."
"Patching, fixing, and training for VMware Workspace ONE are areas that need to be improved."
"The SaaS environment is not very responsive at times, so the performance can be improved in that regard."
"Cost of licensing is quite high."
"I'd like to see more integration capabilities in future releases."
"Windows 10 management is there, but VMware only recently developed that part, and it's not fully mature. Patch management and other integrations are there as well as the application-pushing part, command line, mandatory commands, etc. Some out-of-the-box solutions should be available to better integrate a broader range of applications and handle application push. That's the roadmap we should look at."
