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.

Accessing multiple PCs from remote locations is easy and reliable with this solution

The solution works very well, I do not have any problem with it at all. The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge. A price reduction would probably be warranted as I am not getting three times the service. My husband uses it too and he agrees that a price reduction would be the only thing he would be looking for. The vendor more than tripled the price in the last three years — so it has doubled and then doubled again. They have just kind of gone through the roof when it comes to pricing and I think that they are justifying that because of the demand.

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

"Microsoft Intune is brilliant for scalability and is excellent for scaling purposes."

"The feature that we can deploy policies and configuration settings and it will be applied to every user who is connected to it around the world just with an internet connection is very good."

"The automatic patching is the most valuable feature of Intune."

"The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types, we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager(MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company detail on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."

"The best feature of Microsoft Intune is that it managed the endpoints."

"We can manage and standardize security across your environment, identify problems, receive alerts, and so on. That's its purpose, and that's also why it's so good."

"The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable."

"I would say that it is at the top of the list when it comes to the competition."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"The installation is almost instant."

"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."

"The solution is very quick to set up."

"The technical support is good."

"One of the most convenient features is that I can print from it and do everything as I would if I were sitting at my own desktop."

"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."

"Technical support is very good and very fast; we find them to be very knowledgeable."

"It is very beneficial if you are unable to access a device physically."

"The most valuable features of I use TeamViewer are the ease of access and frequent updates."

"Saving users in the interface has helped our workflow and made things easier for our team because we use it every single day, and we would struggle to support our teams effectively without TeamViewer Business; it has made things much easier."

"Saves travel time, and wide support of platforms allows for a single solution."

"TeamViewer is very easy to set up, use, and instruct others to get running, which is great for support."

"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."

"Unattended access with single login."

"TeamViewer is a scalable solution."

More TeamViewer pros

Cons

"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."

"I would like to see the ability to deploy custom packages as a Windows 64-bit package, as opposed to the Windows 32-bit, which is the only one available now."

"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 security aspect could be more effective. We are using other applications to manage network devices and groups, so if Microsoft Intune could improve in this area, especially on a network level, it would be a real advantage."

"The support is not very good. It's very poor."

"For additional functionality, I suggest that Microsoft could expand on asset management. Since the platform is there, they could develop it into a full-fledged asset management system."

"There is still a gap between SCCM and Intune, especially in the reporting, inventory, and software deployment areas."

"I'm not able to scale because of the issues with macOS management."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge."

"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."

"This solution requires that the PC is "on" in order to reach it remotely. If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."

"The pricing has tripled in a small amount of time and there is not three times better service."

"The solution could have better scalability."

"The connection and reconnection sometimes lag and can cause problems."

"Wish it would support multiple support persons at the same time to assist a client for situations that need team collaboration."

"There have been a few times when TeamViewer has been down globally, so that’s definitely an issue for consideration."

"They really need an AMT client and/or iLO client for business use."

"One thing I have noticed is that TeamViewer does not work so well when the machine you are trying to connect to remotely is not running the same version as your machine."

"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."

"It does what I need it to do but I think it's expensive."

More TeamViewer cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."

"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."

"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."

"It's affordable. In comparison to the competitors, the price depends on what features you need from Intune, but it's affordable. There are no hidden costs, but there are some features that go for a premium price. Those are the add-ons for which you have to pay extra."

"I am satisfied with the pricing."

"Intune's pricing is reasonable considering its benefits and the high costs it helps avoid."

"We don't pay for Intune because it is bundled with the premium subscription to Office 365. It includes Intune and Defender. I don't have to buy two extra products to manage my enterprise."

"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"We pay approximately 2,000 Euros a year for the solution. The licensing is all-inclusive; you don't have to pay for extra add-ons or services."

"It was cheap and now it is comparably expensive. It costs me $484 to use the solution with just two physical PCs."

"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."

"We have a permanent license and the price is reasonable."

"It has probably saved us several thousands of dollars because we have quick access anywhere. We don't have to worry about finding people onsite or arranging conference calls. We also save time and money with it because we don't have to send somebody onsite to troubleshoot."

"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."

"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."

"The price of the license could be less expensive."

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."

"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
