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.

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.

Manager - Projects at Cognizant
Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting
Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is that it is more of a one-stop shop, providing an easier experience."
"Microsoft Intune has never crashed for me; it always works without fail."
"We have definitely seen a good return on investment, as it has saved a good amount of time in device setup and support, reducing manual effort by around forty to fifty percent and also fewer on-site interventions since most issues are handled remotely."
"Autopilot is a feature I really like."
"Since implementing this solution, our company has grown substantially, and our talent pool has significantly expanded."
"Microsoft Intune is a very strong and modern endpoint management solution, especially for organizations moving towards cloud and hybrid environments."
"Microsoft Intune reduces the time of our engineers, cuts down costs for the deployment of our endpoints managed by Microsoft Intune, and helps to improve compliance and the security policies we wanted to apply on endpoints, which was not happening earlier."
"The best feature of Microsoft Intune is that it managed the endpoints."
"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 think that's the best solution I have ever checked; instead of AnyDesk or TeamViewer, you can use GoTo Resolve."
"We wouldn't be able to offer the services that we offer without a product like this."
"I find the mouse control and the ability to click for them very effective. I can move the mouse and click on buttons as if sitting at their computer. These are the basic features I use most often in the solution. There are tricker features that I don't use much because I don't need them frequently. Overall, it's a great tool for helping others with their computer issues without traveling to their location or another building."
"TeamViewer is stable."
"It's a user-friendly product."
"It has been useful and it has increased our productivity by some 400 percent."
"The quality of the call and the quality of the sharing have been excellent."
"TeamViewer allows us to do multiple controllers on a Host, which is great. We have a lot of Macs in our organization, and TeamViewer being cross-platform is a good thing."
"I like that it helped a lot, even with low bandwidth network connectivity. For example, while I was traveling, sometimes there were requirements for me to join a TeamViewer session and provide technical support. I was able to do that without much of an issue. It is also a secure solution."
"Getting started with TeamViewer was easy, with a very straightforward usage"
 

Cons

"Microsoft Copilot in Microsoft Intune is absolutely useless for protecting my environment."
"No option to do end-to-en macOS management. Slow implementation of policies."
"The reports aren't complete, and it's not easy to build custom reports."
"It would be beneficial to have a more straightforward understanding of Intune's capabilities, presented in a simplified manner."
"I'm not able to scale because of the issues with macOS management."
"Microsoft Intune lags market leaders, such as Apperian, in its MAM capabilities."
"The main disadvantage seen today is regarding Linux clients. We have a lot of development resources that have Linux on their clients, and we can't manage them on the same platform, as we do with other clients such as macOS and Windows. So, it should have support for Linux clients. It should also have better support for macOS."
"Enhancements for managing MacOS more comprehensively would be beneficial."
"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."
"I believe latency can be optimized, and security control sometimes goes over the top and feels excessive."
"I believe the graphical resolutions can be improved on the product, as apart from this, the product is very easy to use and easy on the eye."
"One thing that would really help with TeamViewer Business is if they were able to provide an easier way to deploy TeamViewer Business on all devices using group policy, as the current solution is quite clunky and very technical to set up; I have struggled and spent many days trying to get TeamViewer Business pushed out via group policy, and it has never worked as we would prefer, so we end up doing it manually, which is a drain on resources."
"It would be nice to see TeamViewer load screens faster."
"Only the paid version allows for file transfer. Also, it is annoying that I have to upgrade every time they release a new version because I can't use an older version to access a new one even if my version is paid and their version is a trial."
"The performance could always be better."
"The one area which needs improvement for both the standalone and enterprise versions would be inter-operability between versions."
"I didn't like the fact that you had to install a client for remote support. If you didn't install the client, you were very limited in terms of what you could do. For a whole enterprise, it is just not an easy task to install a client on everything. Even if you're using SCCM, it is an undertaking. For transient clients that you don't necessarily support a hundred percent of the time, it would be nice to be able to connect to them and support their issues without having to install something on their machines. In my previous company, we were looking at this solution as being a collaborative tool for the enterprise in terms of video conferencing, calling, and scheduling. They were working on bringing a bunch of products together to make their suite a little more integrated, but it really wasn't at the point where we wanted it to be in terms of integration. We looked at it, reviewed it, and tested it out a bit. We then decided to go with Microsoft Teams. It has the clunkiness of having separate modules that aren't totally integrated. There are different methods for doing different things, which makes it a little bit more complicated. There should be the same way whether you are doing remote support or just calls."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive. The cost depends on the license that we choose."
"Our enterprise agreement includes Microsoft Intune at no additional cost."
"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"
"It is reasonable for the features it has."
"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."
"The pricing is competitive, but it is not cheap."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
"It's very inexpensive. The seats are $25 monthly apiece or something. There aren't additional costs that I'm aware of."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"We are not using the solution for commercial use therefore it is free to use."
"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
"I am using the free version of TeamViewer. There is a subscription fee to use the premium features."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"I rate pricing a ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high. There are no additional costs attached to the licensing of the solution."
