Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Solution elevates team collaboration and manages remote support efficiently
For me as a user in the service desk, there is already a lot of functionality in the product. I don't have any specific ideas for improvement on that side. Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management. For the end user, enhancements do not seem necessary at the moment. They could probably give the technician client a more modern interface, but the crucial factor is stable connectivity in a remote session. I see more potential for improvement on the administration side, like better transparency when a patch is installed. It would be useful for administrators to see the version and patch levels of the product easily. BeyondTrust could also enhance their quality control process before releasing a new build to ensure no new bugs are present. This is a common issue among software manufacturers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like the tool's integration with Apple. Anyone who creates an ID in Intune will get an Apple ID."
"When managing a large number of devices in an organization, it becomes easy to handle them on one platform using Microsoft Intune."
"The insights, even though we're talking about charts and graphs, are super valuable to customers who might not otherwise know what's in their ecosystem or the current state of things within their ecosystem."
"Microsoft integrated BitLocker and Active Directory into Intune, simplifying management."
"Our main use is Intune's management of mobile devices, like Android or iPhone devices. The application performs quite well for both types. We successfully managed almost 3,000 endpoints."
"I am easily able to manage devices and assets, especially laptops and desktops."
"Microsoft Intune is best for Windows devices and security in Office 365 and Microsoft-related enterprise environments. It's a nice platform for endpoint management."
"The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types, we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager(MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company detail on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."
"One of the largest values that we get from Bomgar Remote Support tool is the ability to assist our drivers with their mobile devices. We were unable to do this previously."
"Bomgar is used for connecting with our end users and helping them to resolve any issues that they have on their computer."
"I like Remote Support's ability to connect to a system without end-user interaction. A support engineer can log in to the system if a user is stuck and doesn't know where to go. This is helpful when conference room computers get locked down and the user can't access the guest OS."
"The seamless integration of chat, our ITSM management software, and remote viewing/control software makes for a valuable tool."
"The most valuable feature of the solution concerns our company's main use case, which is for connection to our remote clients."
"The remote reboot feature is particularly valuable for rebooting terminal servers that have power controls disabled."
"The solution has been very stable. We haven't had issues at all. It doesn't crash or freeze. There aren't bugs or glitches either."
"The time savings that we experience from being able to get hands on with a device experiencing trouble, and the time to resolve an issue is substantial."
"Remote desktop sharing is one valuable feature of the solution."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer Tensor is the remote access."
"This product is very simple to use and you can connect whether you are behind a firewall or not."
 

Cons

"I wanted to check if there is any provision at the Intune level to restrict certain things, such as a website, but unfortunately, that feature is available only in Microsoft Defender. Intune has web filtering capabilities, but they are only useful for protection from malicious websites, whereas we would like to be able to restrict a website. For example, YouTube is a clean website. No one would identify it as a malicious website, but if we want to stop the end-users from going to that website, we have to go for another product, such as Microsoft Defender or another third-party proxy solution. It would be great if this capability is included in Intune."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"Lacking ability to leverage more iOS device management internally."
"Intune could be improved by expanding its third-party patching capabilities for a more comprehensive solution."
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"The reporting functionality of Microsoft Intune is limited compared to Microsoft System Center, which offers many more reporting options."
"Reporting needs to be better. Sometimes, it is way too slow, and it is not even accurate."
"It would be interesting to integrate the server side of Intune. Some group policy updates we have on the Windows Server side and possibly some on the client side could also be included."
"I would like more insight into completed sessions. This would be nice, such as a historical log into the technician client application."
"Customer support was better in the past. About two years ago, the response times became longer."
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​"
"Static notes for hosts: If I could enter notes on a Jump Client and have them appear every time I connect to that Client, it would be a huge benefit."
"The Remote support solution based on Bomgar has physical appliances deployed and leveraged to serve our multiple customers. Aging appliances are going RMA now and then."
"Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management."
"I would have picked an internal team member who was going to stay on the team for more time. Shortly after we went live, we had a change of staff and lost the main implementer."
"The chat needs to improve. We need to enable set hours for chat support which are separate from the remote support assistance."
"The SSO feature of the solution may sometimes not function perfectly…Pricing might be improved for TeamViewer Tensor."
"The solution could include more AI (Artificial Intelligence)."
"Having the ability to create subgroups and delegate permissions to the group members would be a helpful addition."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are licenses required for this solution. We enable licenses on the devices we need to manage."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"Microsoft Intune is reasonably priced for large organizations that already have Microsoft Enterprise licenses, but it is less affordable for smaller businesses."
"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."
"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."
"The tool is cheaper than our company's other MDM tools."
"Every customer used to purchase licenses based on their needs."
"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
"It is expensive. Performance-wise, it is pretty good, but we're less happy with the cost. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. It is also on a per-technician basis. A certain number of concurrent technicians can log in and access all the features."
"It is not the most cost effective solution on the market."
"This product provides value for money."
"It is pretty pricey. It is not cheap. The licensing structure is not cheap. The tool is not cheap, but in the long run, it is well worth it. It is probably one of the best on the market because it is just so easy to use and easy to deploy. It gave us the ability to see what everybody was doing. It held people accountable. It gave us the accountability that we needed."
"Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
"The solution is subscription-based and depends on the number of admin users."
"I would prefer that it was more affordable."
"The pricing is a little bit on the higher side."
"I rate pricing a ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high. There are no additional costs attached to the licensing of the solution."
