Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies
Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

Technique at Digitaltrack
Has improved security and enabled remote work flexibility across teams
The best features Check Point Remote Access VPN offers are its security features, which stand out to me. Whenever we are giving the remote access VPN to any employees or vendors, we can specify and control particular access. If we want to give access to a particular IP only, we can achieve that via this feature, and we also apply security features such as antivirus and anti-spyware while giving access to any employees or partners. The ability to control and specify access with Check Point Remote Access VPN, such as limiting to particular IPs or applying antivirus and anti-spyware, makes our environment safe from cyber threats and any types of malicious activities or accessing our private data. We control this through the feature by applying security policies that allow particular users. After deploying Check Point Remote Access VPN solution, I can say that our productivity has maximized. Users are working from home and even working 24/7. If they want, they can access our resources at any time, providing flexibility to work from anywhere. Employees say that sometimes they are not available during the working hour, but they can work from home at their flexible timing, needing access to our private network resources. They sit at home or any remote site and connect to our network to work, which is very good.

Remote design work has become smoother and adapts intelligently to changing bandwidth
The best features of Rocket Exceed TurboX are that it works reasonably well and is easy to set up. As the admin, I set up the server and tested it with different bandwidths. The solution performs better than VNC, though there is still lag in the one Mbps to four Mbps range. Rocket Exceed TurboX automatically adjusts the resolution according to the program that is running, which is their intellectual property. This intelligent adjustment is a significant advantage compared to VNC, where I had to set it to the lowest setting with poor resolution to achieve acceptable performance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is much easier to deploy software updates and Windows updates globally because of the cloud base, so I can manage from anywhere, making it quite convenient for me."
"The stability of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The best part of Intune is application deployment. We can deploy an application to several users with a single click. We can use conditional access, granting access to users based on certain conditions, such as location, platform, etc."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"What I like most about Microsoft Intune is that it's agile and easy to deploy, and it covers the maximum number of policies."
"We have used conditional access policies to prevent users from copying internal resources or internal data to external devices, which has helped protect our organizations from being compromised."
"Microsoft Intune is a cloud solution and we can manage everything, including Azure AD, Intune, and not only mobile hand devices, such as iOS or Android, but with the main focus on workstations, which is what makes the solution powerful."
"Microsoft Intune scales very effectively with our growing needs."
"The initial setup is not complex, and with the Kryon system it makes it easier for the user because we have known this product for a while, so it's not a problem to configure the system."
"Organizations that already use the Check Point NGFW Solution do not require any additional hardware, which makes the implementation straightforward and reduces the time to go live."
"The solution offers high scalability as far as adding more users."
"The biggest advantage of Check Point Remote Access VPN is that we already use the Check Point firewall. We only needed to enable the feature and do the configuration in order to enable the VPN feature. We didn't need to buy or manage new hardware."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted my organization by greatly increasing productivity because users are now working from anywhere, and even during leave, they can easily work at any time."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN provides good connectivity with an active-on feature that ensures all traffic flows through the firewall and is inspected according to our security posture checks, preventing unauthorized website access by employees and ensuring that any files they download are completely free from threats."
"One of the features that is very valuable to our agency is SSL VPN software blade which gives users the ability to work from home."
"The management of the solution is very simple. It allows for a single view of all the endpoints."
"The most helpful feature of OpenText Exceed TurboX (ETX) is that it allows you to consume heavy applications that usually have a lot of latency. I also like that the solution is fast and has a friendly UI."
"The best features of Rocket Exceed TurboX are that it works reasonably well and is easy to set up."
"The solution is perfect for Linux users."
"This product is great, it's easy to use and it can solve certain problems our remote users face, as employees in other cities and countries can easily access it and the solution is perfect for Linux users."
 

Cons

"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"Better reporting capabilities, stronger Mac OS management, faster policy synchronization, and easier troubleshooting are needed."
"My experience with them was very bad. They don't know about their own product."
"We are facing issues with Apple products. With macOS and iOS, there are some difficulties with the updates because we cannot get full control of Apple products. In the case of Windows, it is fine, but in the case of Apple, we have some difficulties. We cannot control everything through Intune."
"Microsoft's technical support isn't very good. They're very slow in responding."
"What I dislike about Microsoft Intune is the time it takes Microsoft to develop a feature."
"The current Intune reporting functionality could benefit from some improvements."
"Microsoft Intune can be improved in terms of reporting, customization, troubleshooting visibility, and policy deployment speed in large environments; some advanced configurations can also be complex during initial setup and management."
"My overall experience with customer support is not great; our typical first level of support that we receive is lackluster, usually involving someone that doesn't really understand our issue, and it takes multiple days to get the issue escalated to someone that can actually help."
"Some configurations, like idle timeout (the requirement came from multiple users), are not possible to configure directly from the Check Point management server."
"Knowledge base documentation can be upgraded."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN can be improved in throughput, as when multiple users are connected through the Remote Access VPN, there can be an issue where only a single user can access our single servers, which needs to be resolved."
"There is always room for innovation and the addition of new features."
"We would like to implement HTML5 (clientless access) in the product without installing any additional software."
"The cost of maintenance is high compared to most products in the market."
"Sometimes we have some small problems with Check Point Remote Access VPN. For example, problems with authentication."
"We have concerns about network speed and security settings."
"The performance of the graphical interface needs improvement. They should add some CPU to speed graphic acceleration."
"It seems to work better than the original solution, but it still does not meet the standards I wanted."
"An area for improvement in OpenText Exceed TurboX (ETX) is the installation process because you need some technical knowledge to install it. What's lacking in OpenText Exceed TurboX (ETX) is a help portal for users to ask questions and seek assistance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"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."
"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."
"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."
"Microsoft Intune's pricing is reasonable."
"Regarding pricing, as a global customer, we get a big discount. For us, it's a good return on investment. We need to pay for additional features we want to enable. It seems cheaper than other vendors, but I can't say what it would cost an average customer."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."
"The product is expensive. I rate its pricing a ten out of ten. For the cost of one product, we could purchase two or three Fortinet solutions with the same amount of money."
"I can say that the licensing costs are charged annually."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
"The price of this product is good."
"Pricing for OpenText Exceed TurboX (ETX) is five out of ten. It's not that expensive, and it's not that affordable."
