Centralized device management has transformed security and streamlined remote provisioning
One area where Microsoft Intune can improve is the user interface. Sometimes the portal feels a bit complex and not very intuitive, especially for new users, and it can take time to find specific settings. Another point is troubleshooting. While logs are available, the diagnostic policies and sync issues can still be time-consuming and not very straightforward. I also feel that reporting could be more detailed and customizable. The built-in reports are helpful, but for deeper insights, I often need to rely on additional tools. Overall, it is a strong solution, but improving usability and troubleshooting experience would make it even better. While Microsoft Intune works very well within the Microsoft ecosystem, the integration of some third-party tools could be smoother and require less customization. Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected. In terms of features, I think more advanced automation and built-in remediation options would be helpful since common issues can be fixed automatically without manual intervention.

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.
Todd Blake - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior IT Specialist at COMMUNITY HEALTH CONNECTIONS INC
Simple to set up, reasonable pricing, and useful remote control capabilities
I'm on the latest version of the solution. I just updated it yesterday. While we have the solution on-premises at this time, we'll likely move to the cloud later this year. They have a trial version that you can try. They have a free version that you can try as well. I use it myself to support my family. I would try the free version or the trial version depending on your business. They can set you up and you can get to see all the features. I would also advocate going to the cloud version. Don't bother with the on-prem. It's just easier to jump to the cloud. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We already use a lot of Microsoft products in our company, and therefore, it made sense to also use this product."
"This improved control and visibility has helped my organization by reducing risks, saving time, and making compliance easier."
"Its most valuable aspect is it is very connected with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"Autopilot is a feature I really like."
"I would advise others this solution is easy to implement in the organization."
"One of our clients migrated the model workplace based on Intune, achieving a 78 percent cost reduction, which is quite a lot."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune for me is its fully cloud-based nature, allowing me to work from anywhere, whether I am using my mobile phone, Windows, or macOS devices, so I can access it from any place at my convenience."
"We wouldn't be able to offer the services that we offer without a product like this."
"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."
"The flexibility to manage bandwidth and organize connections, and the price, make ConnectWise a really good choice."
"The remote management piece is the most valuable aspect of the solution for us due to the fact that we can support our clients after hours."
"The product works very well and is easy for end users to install."
"ConnectWise Connect is very convenient as we can remote to a PC even when it is not within our LAN."
"At first, we switched because of the better price but now we are are using this product happily."
"It's much easier to use ProtectWise Control than to use, for instance, TightVNC or VNC Viewer."
"The product's two-factor authentication means we are not worried like before about the state of our security."
"Better than TeamViewer and useful for fixing problems remotely."
 

Cons

"There were several bugs with stability."
"Reporting could be improved. It needs to be more expensive and robust."
"The mobile management is good for iPhone and iPad, but the Apple Mac management needs improvement. That is probably because Microsoft does not have low-level access to Apple Mac hardware. If you are doing basic things, it is okay, but if you want to image Apple Macs and do things like that, then Jamf is much better."
"Intune could add more Linux security features and more integration with on-prem devices. The application deployments can also be improved."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see some kind of analytics report."
"In the next release, I would like a feature to be able to properly lock down the device. For example, if an attacker or somebody steals the phone, you can be sure that the pin cannot be broken."
"Microsoft's technical support isn't very good. They're very slow in responding."
"Microsoft Intune's support for Mac devices is lacking and could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"I would like ConnectWise Control to be more transparent on the real costs to renew their license."
"There is one back-end issue that I am running into at some of locations where I login to provide support, and sometimes port 443 is blocked. That is what it uses to connect. So, I am having to do workarounds to get a session started."
"Mobile interface."
"There needs to be a way to run the agent without installing, like GoToAssist."
"There is an issue which is pretty rare, but I find it at least when connecting from my mobile device. I am forced to refresh the screen by changing the screen quality to get screen updates. This only happens sometimes."
"Setting up permissions and groups in the portal is NOT simple or intuitive by any stretch."
"There needs to be a way to run the agent without installing, like GoToAssist."
"There can be some complexities when running patches or when building up all the profiles, making them areas where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."
"Most of our clients come to us with licensing already in place. On average, it costs $6 per device per month to add Intune to an Office 365 subscription, but I am not sure."
"The price of Microsoft Intune is reasonable."
"The pricing is not cheap, especially with inflation. They've had to increase their prices. It's not excessive, but alright."
"The pricing is good because customers are not complaining about it."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"The pricing is inherently reasonable, as Microsoft leverages market insights to maintain the total cost of ownership at around ninety to ninety-five percent of what would be incurred in an on-premise scenario."
"It's very inexpensive. The seats are $25 monthly apiece or something. There aren't additional costs that I'm aware of."
"For the price we pay, we definitely feel it's worth it, but there are some contenders in the market that are coming out now, whose products are as good; they are offering more features and the price is actually less than ConnectWise. All things considered, the biggest thing is the lack of patching in ConnectWise. If they could integrate that into the product, that would be a game changer, if offered at the same price point."
"We pay an annual licensing fee."
"We pay $3,000 USD for the service, yearly upfront."
"Good price and works well."
"Pricing is fair for Control and the licensing is simple."
"We pay $85 per month for each user for a ConnectWise package with multiple solutions."
"It is priced fairly."
"ConnectWise Control is not an overly expensive tool. Its pricing is reasonable."
