Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Administrator at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
An affordable solution to control BlackBerry applications but has latency issues
The solution is complicated for new users. There are a lot of buttons on the first page. It can be very confusing if you’re not aware of the terms they use. For example, a button labelled ‘edit device’ doesn't explain exactly what it does or how to use it. Setup is difficult, time-consuming, and a lot of procedures are involved. There are latency issues on the application.

Centralized mobile management has reduced manual work and now secures apps, data, and access
Ivanti Endpoint Manager offers excellent features, working well with both iOS and Android, positioning itself as a market leader and providing a range of deployment features, including quick deployment of business apps, configuration profiles, compliance profiles, password policies, iOS and Android upgrades, and jailbreak device detection. The speed at which Ivanti Endpoint Manager deploys apps and configurations significantly impacts my daily operations, saving my IT team time and allowing them to utilize their effort in other activities. Deploying an app to 100 devices only requires pushing it through Ivanti Endpoint Manager, and once the device is online, it auto-installs the configuration item. Ivanti Endpoint Manager provides features for Apple DEP devices including Apple auto enrollment and integrates well with Zero-Touch for Android, allowing new devices to be preconfigured for out-of-box experiences and OS level security to be controlled, enhancing my management capabilities. Ivanti Endpoint Manager has positively impacted my organization as it is my main tool for managing mobile devices, reducing IT effort, ensuring devices needing updates receive the proper updates, and blacklisting non-compliant devices. It deploys configuration items including Wi-Fi profiles, SCEP profiles, root certificates, app-related profiles, and DLP policies to safeguard my infrastructure from malicious access. I have seen a reduction in time spent on device management because Ivanti Endpoint Manager automates small tasks and supports scripts, saving my IT employees time and effort compared to manual management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Windows Autopatch is the most valuable because it removes the burden of patch management."
"My favorite feature of Microsoft Intune is the dashboard; the dashboard is very simple and user-friendly, and any person, even without prior knowledge, can understand it easily by seeing the interface dashboard."
"It meets the basic security needs and management needs for most organizations."
"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."
"Compliance and the policies that can be set are the most valuable features."
"This product offers an alternative solution to other UEM (Unified Endpoint Management) solutions."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"The ease of applying security policies to applications we deploy is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"The solution has a lot of features, such as adding different applications and devices to one platform. This allowed us to manage many devices and applications from a single platform."
"The main benefits of Ivanti Endpoint Manager include patch management and security benefits such as vulnerability management, and it is particularly useful for managing devices in a centralized console."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10."
"The product saves time and money."
"The license cost is lower than other products in the market."
"What I appreciate most about Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it's easy to enroll the device, the patch is very impressive, and the patching part of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is much easier compared to InTune, where in InTune, you have to create the app deployment, but Ivanti Endpoint Manager makes it much easier to update any patch, patch updates, and application updates."
"The Ivanti Endpoint Manager allows us to perform rollouts, starting small with a group of devices and expanding to a larger set of devices, and it provides the ability to download updates while pinpointing which updates we need and don't need."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager offers excellent features, working well with both iOS and Android, positioning itself as a market leader and providing a range of deployment features, including quick deployment of business apps, configuration profiles, compliance profiles, password policies, iOS and Android upgrades, and jailbreak device detection."
"The interface is intuitive for administrators to understand patching, package creation, deployment, troubleshooting, remote access, and PowerShell scripting automation."
 

Cons

"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"Currently, BitLocker does not support BYOD enrollment, which is a product limitation."
"The most important thing is reporting. They should improve their reporting. They should give a free hand to users. In SCCM, I can create my own reports. For example, in SCCM, I can create an inventory report for my PC or for all PCs, but in Intune, we don't have an option to create any report. Microsoft claims that Intune is a successor of SCCM, but SCCM is more powerful than Intune. So, they should develop Intune more and make it equivalent to SCCM. Then, their product will be great in the market."
"The most significant issue I encounter is troubleshooting when a policy is not applying or a device is showing non-compliant; the error messages can be pretty vague, which makes it necessary for me to dig around and piece things together myself."
"Logs and similar deployment/remediation detail for application delivery to Windows 10 computers should to be improved Additional application deployment options e.g. MSI deployment with more complex parameters or additional side-by-side files, and non-MSI deployment options."
"Microsoft Intune is a very strong platform, but there are still some areas where it could improve."
"It needs incorporation of Knox, ZeroTouch, etc."
"You can have a bad day where 80% of the enrollments failed. The next day it's running with the same devices without any changes, and you don't know why."
"The solution is complicated for new users. There are a lot of buttons on the first page. It can be very confusing if you’re not aware of the terms they use. For example, a button labelled ‘edit device’ doesn't explain exactly what it does or how to use it."
"The product's implementation process is in areas of concern where improvements are required."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager is not user-friendly and feels outdated, which affects usability."
"Setting up the solution on-premises is difficult and needs improvement."
"Despite the good features, I would suggest improvements in the console interface of the Ivanti Endpoint Manager as it appears outdated, reminiscent of the early 2000s."
"When it comes to the reporting part, it needs to be improved. The executive reports and the deployment reports can be more improvised."
"It is disappointing that Ivanti has removed these features from the on-prem version to encourage migration to the cloud feature."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager can improve support for Mac and Windows devices, as it currently excels with iOS and Android."
"The area that could be improved within Ivanti Endpoint Manager is integration, particularly with tools such as Splunk or potentially ServiceNow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"They have categorized the licenses according to the size of the business. So, if it's a smaller organization, we can choose the license accordingly. If it's a big organization, then we can choose accordingly. Everything is clearly mentioned, and we can decide. It's suitable for all kinds of infrastructure, and that's very goo"
"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"There are licenses required for this solution. We enable licenses on the devices we need to manage."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."
"Our enterprise agreement includes Microsoft Intune at no additional cost."
