Senior Business Development Executive at Digitaltrack
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.

Consistent automation has improved deployments and supports efficient client-facing workflows
Deployment and other processes are feasible for me, making this a smooth process. The integration part is good. We can use multiple things by integrating with CI/CD pipelines, and this is very feasible for us. This allows us to do our work easily. The productivity is very good. CloudBees is a good and efficient tool. We can work in client-facing scenarios, and since clients have provided these types of tools, we are able to work on them effectively.

Highly scalable development of cloud-native applications that offers an extensive range of tools and features, with significant learning curve and complex configurations
We use it for building cloud-native applications and APIs and it helps us effectively manage various aspects of our application It enables you to create applications that can start up more quickly than a standard Spring Boot application. It would be beneficial for the framework to become more…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution’s most valuable feature is its ease of use."
"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."
"The ability to (somewhat) manage full Windows 10 computers including EXE-based or MSI-based application deployments using Azure Active Directory as Identity."
"The Autopilot feature is the most valuable because it saves significant time on managing devices. We can ship devices globally, and users can set them up on their own. It's convenient."
"In terms of technical support, you will get an immediate response."
"Microsoft Intune scales very effectively with our growing needs."
"The ability to switch between Affinity and non-Affinity enrollment is great."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"I find the automation feature most valuable. CloudBees is highly scalable and supports both small and large teams. The deployment process is also faster when compared to on-premise."
"Scalability largely depends on how the tool is set up within your infrastructure"
"CloudBees's user interface is very simple and user-friendly."
"The most valuable features are Java features, microservice communication, payment validation, Jenkins Sonar, management master to CloudBees, Blue Ocean, JobConfig, and support."
"CloudBees is the Jenkins tool for building and deploying. There's open-source Jenkins, which is free and can be used by any organization, but it offers a different architecture for Jenkins. If your organization is larger, you might choose the architecture. This way, you can have different masters for different applications, and different teams can manage their masters separately. However, a single person can still control all the masters, whoever manages it for the organization."
"The security audit product offered by CloudBees is particularly beneficial in automating audit processes, which reduces the time developers spend on audits."
"It can manage multiple Jenkins instances."
"The most beneficial aspect is that CloudBees integrates with everything, like version one, GitHub, and PDM."
"It offers excellent scalability."
"Spring Cloud integrates well."
"The solution's initial setup is straightforward. The deployment process took me around ten minutes to fifteen minutes."
"Spring Cloud integrates well, and as it's code-based, you can do more customization, so with the way you configure or code, you can have your custom implementations, making it the best integration option if you have Java Spring Web Services."
 

Cons

"There is improvement needed in integrating with the installed Office solutions versions, such as Office 2019. The Office 365 integrates without a problem."
"The reports aren't complete, and it's not easy to build custom reports."
"One thing I would suggest is that servers are not getting managed through Microsoft Intune."
"A feature I would want to see added in Microsoft Intune is the ability to manage other non-Microsoft devices."
"Microsoft Intune is a very strong platform, but there are still some areas where it could improve."
"The reports that are generated aren't so great. They don't give a lot of meaning so far, but that could be down to user knowledge than the actual reporting side of things. I'm not a big user of it, but I was a bigger user of MaaS360, and we used to be able to run weekly and monthly reports. In the case of any deviations. we'd get a warning immediately. That's not so easy to do or to get in place for Intune. This could be just a user issue, but when I compare both, that's the only thing that's lacking for me."
"It just doesn't handle software updates well at all by itself. You need to be a scripting wizard to make those happen properly, or you use third-party tools. The Windows feature updates are very difficult to implement. I would like to see a proprietary built-in remote control tool. I know that they have Team Viewer integrated, but it is not seamless. It would be nice if they had a seamless remote desktop capability directly from the Intune console."
"I would like the ability to install the agent on devices from suppliers, which would enable us to implement a zero-trust strategy for guest devices."
"A lot of stability issues are there with CloudBees."
"If you're logged in and working for about thirty minutes and then go idle for five to ten minutes, Jenkins will prompt you to re-authenticate."
"We've noticed occasional issues with folder permissions changing unexpectedly. Specifically, permissions sometimes shift from the CloudBees user to the root user. This can cause pipeline failures, as pipelines require the correct CloudBees user permissions to execute properly."
"The setup is somewhat complicated. You need a cloud architect and engineer to set it up properly. The initial setup will take time, so you need a good engineer and architect to handle it."
"There could be improvements in the ease of use."
"We did face some challenges, particularly with the infrastructure."
"It could improve the document upload process."
"The user interface of CloudBees is good but could be even more intuitive. Improving the user-friendliness of the interface and having simpler setup configurations would greatly benefit new users."
"If there's a dashboard like the ones provided by Apigee or Kong, that will be useful."
"Stability is one area in the solution that needs to improve."
"It would be beneficial for the framework to become more lightweight and efficient when transitioning to the cloud."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"We spend a lot of money on Intune licensing, and some of our users have to be double licensed just because of how our dev and corporate environments are segmented."
"Intune is inexpensive. It also comes bundled in some Office 365 licenses, so you can choose to purchase it separately or as a package."
"Microsoft Intune is moderately priced. There is a monthly license required to use the solution and it is approximately eight dollars per month."
"We have the business premium licenses for the solution."
"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."
"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
Information not available
"Spring Cloud is an open-source solution."
"It is an open-source or free version solution. It also has a paid version, but we have used the open-source version for now."
"Currently, we are not required to pay for licenses."
