Featured Reviews

Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

System supports legacy OS and manages endpoints efficiently but requires a more user-friendly interface and improved technical support
Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10 ( /products/windows-10-reviews ). It provided essential features needed for our operations, including endpoint management and remote control. The licensing was quite affordable when it was an on-premises model. Despite being an older tool, it met our requirements until recent advancements.
Mahadi Ma - PeerSpot reviewer
Useful tunneling, beneficial enterprise integration, and priced well
The scalability of MobileIron UEM is good for on-premise and cloud deployments. MobileIron UEM has given the customer the ability to manage how many devices they have. If they have more than 10,000 devices, they need to upgrade the server. For example, they might need to upgrade the CPU or memory, et cetera. We have approximately 5,000 to 10,000 users using this solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Intune helps us avoid issuing everyone company-owned devices. We provide a stipend, allowing users to bring their own devices. This approach gives us leverage against other MSPs. It also enhances collaboration because clients already covered by specific licensing can optimize their usage of Microsoft Intune."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"As the solution is a software as a service, the scalability is unlimited."
"Its price is reasonable. It is a part of our M365 suite."
"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."
"The best features include the management, which is quite good, and endpoints."
"We have not experienced any bugs or glitches with this solution."
"If I assess Intune's user experience, I would say it is perfect and simple."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10."
"The product saves time and money."
"Ivanti is a great product from a security perspective."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The company provides great customer service."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be improved."
"While no specific feature requires immediate improvement, the ongoing expansion of reporting and inventory capabilities promises to enhance its utility."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"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."
"It would be better if they can reduce the cost of the license."
"Microsoft needs to strategize its licensing structure. When using Microsoft Intune, we bought a small scale of controls, only controlling part of the devices, though Microsoft Intune can do much more. The Intune Suite offers more features, allowing extensive integration with either internal or cloud environments without requiring third-party licensing. However, each feature has a separate license, making logistics and cost management difficult if not strategically bundled together."
"Its integration with Mac and Linux devices can be better. They should provide more features similar to Windows. We should be able to manage policies within Linux and Mac machines. If we can have more granular controls for these two operating systems, it will be really helpful."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"Setting up the solution on-premises is difficult and needs improvement."
"The product's implementation process is in areas of concern where improvements are required."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager is not user-friendly and feels outdated, which affects usability."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti. The test team or the testing procedures are flawed because they release new versions with numerous basic issues."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing seems reasonable."
"If you're ever going to buy an Office 365 environment, then pricing is reasonable given all that it does, but if you're not, then you might find the pricing expensive."
"The Intune license model is costly."
"Previously the price was $4 per month per user. Now it's $2.25 per user per month."
"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 liked the tool's pricing until P2 came into effect. I am unsure about the current value versus the cost of the new licensing model."
"Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license."
"Microsoft licenses are costly."
