Easy setup and effective support
I am with the company that sells LogMeIn Rescue. So, we engage with end customers, enterprise customers, manufacturing customers, BFSI customers, and healthcare customers. We try to find their use cases and provision our solution accordingly. For instance, if someone is in manufacturing and wants…

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

"It is very straightforward to set up, use, install, and transfer sessions."
"The ability see iOS devices helps us out a lot because the majority of our users are iOS device users."
"The ability to run it as a console when I log in. It thinks I'm there. It allows me to do file transfers. It allows me to see event logs through the utility, as opposed to having to open them on the client machine, so I can help troubleshoot unobtrusively."
"Being able to reboot computers into safe mode, when needed. That has come in handy in regards to IT troubleshooting."
"It has a feature that, when you take over the machine, you can get into the system administrator level. We’re able to tweak things on the machine as if we’re sitting there."
"Instead of trying to walk-through a user on how to fix their computer, we just log in, do it, and move on to the next case."
"They've thought of everything in terms of features. It's got all the little drill-down details and capabilities to apply patches and other stuff like that. I don't use everything they offer but you can go wherever you want to take this tool. It's been around for a really long time. We try as much as possible to train our staff to take care of their own systems and train our customer staff to take care of their own systems. There's a little laser pointer feature that you can pull up on the screen and say, "No, over here, click on this." That's very educational. It's a simple thing but when you're trying to get people to take responsibility and learn to take care of their own infrastructure, being able to just point at something while you're viewing their screen, as well as, take over their screen, is very valuable."
"Customer satisfaction went up by 40 percent and productivity for my staff went up by 30 percent."
"The biggest asset is the range of device management options available with Intune, whether it is a Windows device, a Linux device, a Mac device, or mobile devices."
"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"Its price is reasonable. It is a part of our M365 suite."
"The solution is scalable. We currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."
"One of the main features of the solution is it allows the management of many devices in different ways."
"It provides control over all mobile devices that are being connected to the corporate network."
"The feature I find most valuable in Microsoft Intune is being able to configure policies and push them directly to mobile phones."
"Intune has automated the deployment of patches and applications, which is more efficient and easier."
 

Cons

"The billing team was poor when fixing their billing mistake and customer service was missing in action."
"They need to combine computer and mobile end-user support to be a more streamlined experience."
"You should be able to remote on an iPhone like you remote on an Android. It is not the same experience. Unless you are very savvy on iOS, you are pretty much lost.​"
"We are currently supporting Linux, but there are certain limitations. We are currently working on improving Linux support and addressing certain limitations in the roadmap."
"I would like to see a mobile client that would work on an iPad, so I do not always have to be on a PC or a full-blown Mac operating system."
"I occasionally need to reboot my computer after using LogMeIn, due to an issue with IE. It stops responding to keyboard input every once in a while, after disconnecting from a session. A reboot resolves it."
"it needs better iOS integration. It's still limited in its functionality when it comes to iOS. Currently, when you do something other than iOS, you're not able to take control of what's going on; instead of having to tell the user, "Click here, click there," I would like to have full control over an iOS device."
"I would like a single sign on for all of our (five) accounts so that I can immediately use an available seat. Right now, I have to try to log in with each account separately, in an attempt to find an available license that is not currently in use."
"Automations in Microsoft Intune can be more elaborated; KQL (Kusto Query Language) is available, but if multiple automation options were readily available, which would include PowerShell, KQL, JSON, and different interpreters like VS Code or Python readily available from Microsoft Intune, it would help administration and management much better."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"I have faced stability issues with Microsoft Intune plenty of times, but I think it's part of the process."
"It should be simplified. I've worked with many different mobile device management solutions, and Intune is one of the more complex ones. It could be more simplified, and some of it is related to the wording that is being used, such as a configuration profile versus a policy. They really should have had different names to make it less confusing."
"In Microsoft Intune, there is significant slowness, and there needs to be more logs when we deploy software, parameters, or scripts to troubleshoot problems and errors in the interface, workstations, and Android devices."
"Intune's server management could be better. If it could incorporate more features from System Center into Intune's Configuration Manager, it would be beneficial."
"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."
"The time we have to wait to deploy policies has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little on the higher side, though.​"
"Look at the different plans they have. Do not pay for a plan you do not need.​"
"The pricing is worth the value."
"The only downside is pricing. I think each technician license is somewhere around $100 or $120 a month now. So if you have a lot of technicians, it can get expensive, for a small business."
"It's definitely worth the value."
"The cost of LogMeIn is high... I went with another product that was going to give me savings of 50%. One technician tested it, he gave us the thumbs up. Then once we moved all my technicians to it, but it didn’t work... Trying to move from LogMeIn hindered our performance and productivity and it was not worth the savings."
"Pricing is reasonable and easily offsets other costs, while resolving issues in a much quicker timeframe."
"I did look into a couple of other products, TeamViewer in particular, at one point. The price point of Rescue, compared to some of the other things that are in the marketplace right now, is high. But it's what I would call the "Cadillac" of the industry."
"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."
"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."
"Intune's pricing is competitive. For example, the license of Blackberry's Enterprise Mobility Suite was costly, but Intune is affordable. It is included as an additional feature when you buy security enhancements for your organization. For example, let's say I have fifty users in my organization and all of them are using Microsoft cloud services, like Teams, Office 365, and OneDrive."
"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"The product is expensive."
"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."
"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."
