Delivers seamless remote access and excellent support
I don't have experience in ManageEngine. I have experience with GFI LANguard, Qualys Patch Management, and WatchGuard Firebox. I also have experience with GoTo Resolve. I don't know about the advanced security protocols in GoTo Resolve. The solution is very good. The vendor is good, the technical support is good, so there will be no complaint about it. I rate GoTo Resolve 9 out of 10.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I think that's the best solution I have ever checked; instead of AnyDesk or TeamViewer, you can use GoTo Resolve."
"The ability to change the way that the client works to a service so that we can get a little bit deeper into the operating system, as opposed to just an app running is the most valuable aspect. We also like the unattended sessions. Those are probably the two most important things to us. It's important because we can't do certain things when it is just an application running."
"I like Intune's ability to install software to a device remotely and push policy through the Azure portal."
"I rate Intune 10 out of 10."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is that it is more of a one-stop shop, providing an easier experience."
"When a user receives the machine, sets it up, and turns it on, it connects to the domain and begins installing software, becoming ready within approximately half an hour, which represents a significant time savings for IT departments."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the user-friendly portal for end users."
"The best features of Microsoft Intune include helping to know if computers are configured correctly and if users have access to apps or the platform."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"The feature of remotely wiping devices in Microsoft Intune is what I prefer the most."
 

Cons

"The pricing of GoTo Resolve is very high compared to other solutions."
"If they included some sort of monitoring system for managed services so we can have it all in one package, that would be helpful. There are managed services solutions that allow us to remote into the computers, but a lot of them have too much overhead. Usually, the remote connection is not as simple and as fast and cannot be run as a service."
"The solution does require maintenance, and it is complex to maintain, especially regarding updates, patching, and releases."
"The scalability could be improved, and like most other MDM products, Intune is good but not 100% there yet."
"There is room for improvement, particularly in terms of compatibility, extending beyond the well-known major brands."
"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."
"They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular. Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants."
"The UI is not user-friendly and has room for improvement."
"If you wish to block any App Store application, there is no way to do so."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's very inexpensive. The seats are $25 monthly apiece or something. There aren't additional costs that I'm aware of."
"Microsoft licenses are costly."
"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."
"It's a part of Microsoft 365 and E5 licenses. Microsoft's strategy of making every feature in Microsoft Intune paid needs optimization. Remote control is one of the basic features, not a luxury feature, yet we must pay for it. I"
"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."
"The Intune license model is costly."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"While I can't provide insights from a business perspective, it's worth noting that the pricing may differ significantly, and the discount we received might not be reflective of standard business rates."
