Consolidating vendors has lowered our licensing costs. However, some features included in Microsoft's Intune might be 50 percent more expensive if purchased separately from another vendor. Specifically, if we consider upgrading Azure Active Directory or Entra to the P2 level, adding Intune capabilities, and acquiring the full Intune suite, Microsoft offers a significantly lower per-user cost compared to external vendors. With Microsoft, it's just a couple of dollars per user, while external vendors typically charge $10-$14 per user for similar functionality. I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive.

Microsoft Intune is more expensive than other solutions, but it offers a wider range of features and control. It is definitely worth the cost for organizations that need a comprehensive mobile device management solution.
Microsoft offers different licensing structures. It offers standalone licensing for Intune, but Intune is also included in other licenses, such as for Microsoft 365, E3, and E5, Business Premium, and Business Standard.

We don't get Intune as a separate module. Most of the time, we use it within an enterprise agreement like E3 or E5. Those licenses are at a good price, but what is annoying is that every single year they go higher. That makes it more difficult to get a company to take a full license. It will be really hard to manage, for us, if the prices keep going up every single year. Currently, we pay €44 for an enterprise E3 license. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees.
Earlier, Microsoft used to give the license using the MSDN subscription, now the subscription part uses the M365 E3/E5. Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license.
We don't have just the Intune license. We have the Enterprise Mobility + Security E3 license, but I don't have the exact figures. Someone else was involved in the initial discussions and purchase, and the entire environment was handed over to me. Any bundle package, such as Security E3, covers multiple things, such as AAP, BitLocker, etc. If you go for them individually, they would be more expensive. Bundling makes the price more attractive and competitive.
The pricing is challenging. Microsoft needs to pay some attention to it. It is good for big enterprises, but I'm not sure that small and medium-sized organizations can adopt it. The pricing includes maintenance, upgrades, and updates.
We don't pay for Intune because it is bundled with the premium subscription to Office 365. It includes Intune and Defender. I don't have to buy two extra products to manage my enterprise.
If you consider a Microsoft bundle in the operating system, it's pretty interesting in terms of pricing. If you're considering it as a standalone, it's difficult to sell, due to the price.

We renewed our contract with Microsoft about a few months ago. It's pretty simple to renew. We have various licenses for Microsoft including, for example, for Office, Defender, et cetera. I'd rate the pricing and ease of renewal at an eight out of ten.

We have a broader enterprise agreement which is set up as a four-year period. In terms of extra costs, there may be some infrastructure costs, especially for the on-premise part of the solution.

The pricing is reasonable. Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments. But for enterprises with more than 6,000 or 7,000 users, it can start to get a little expensive.

On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five.
I am satisfied with the pricing.
I liked the tool's pricing until P2 came into effect. I am unsure about the current value versus the cost of the new licensing model.

Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap.
Microsoft Intune is expensive.
The cost is handled through our Office 365 license, so I have yet to be able to compare it directly with other tools in its class.
I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall.
Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages. GMF can be more expensive.
It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there.
