Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

User experience improves efficiency while awaiting improved application performance
The solution is meeting my requirements. I don't have any direct inputs here, except that stability of the application can be improved. Sometimes it gets hung or restarts multiple times in the background, which consumes battery life. If stability can be improved, it will generally help everyone. These solutions are usually a little expensive. If costs can come down, that will generally help the masses. A reduction of around 30-35% would make it more prompting for people to take that extra jump. Due to budget constraints, I have seen people not going for Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security because even if the commercials get discounted for the first year, subsequent years see significant price increases.

Identity workflows have delivered strong governance but remain complex to install and customize
I would describe the installation of Oracle Identity Governance on-premises as quite complex. Very complex. To install the product, it took us maybe three or four days to get it up and running just to go through the installation procedures. I repeated the same exercise in 2017 because I also migrated from 11c to 12c. That was the migration in 2017 that I managed. The migration took a long time. It took two to three years to be able to literally migrate all the code that I had. So it was quite complex. To summarize it quickly, I would describe the product as complete, very powerful, and very capable. However, it is extremely complex because Oracle relies on their own framework to customize and develop and fine-tune the functionalities. It is not Java, it is not some public framework. It is Java-based more or less, but it has their own Oracle framework for development and that makes the product quite complex to harness.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Mobile Device Management in Intune is a valuable feature."
"Microsoft Intune policies, remote wipe, and using corporate and private profiles are valuable features, but MFA is the most valuable feature as it ensures that the end user is authentic."
"After implementing Microsoft Intune, we have seen a 50 to 70% reduction in device provisioning time and a 30 to 40% reduction in routine endpoint management efforts, allowing our IT team to focus less on routine management and providing faster software deployment while experiencing a significant reduction in support tickets."
"Mobile device management is most valuable."
"We are a Microsoft 365 E5 customer and the product promises the capabilities that we need and is available without additional cost."
"There are many features in Microsoft Intune. For personal mobile devices, MDM is what I most prefer."
"Regarding Advanced Endpoint Analytics connected with Microsoft Intune, it is absolutely important to me because you just grab value; it is the way you take real value from your data."
"I would say right now that Microsoft Intune is one of the best solutions."
"The solution is scalable."
"Microsoft Mobility and EMS include Intune for Mobility, which provides mobile device management and mobile application management. With mobile device management, you can control the entire device in an organization."
"You can scale the solution up or down by department."
"Basically, the solution ensures that computers are safe and secure."
"The technical support is quite good, and as of now I have not faced anything that was neglected or unsolvable, and I always get a prompt response as well."
"The solution offers excellent documentation that is easily available online."
"Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security is a basic part of all of our projects because it's a very important basis for any customer wanting to set up Microsoft technology, as they need to manage all users and devices on a security basis."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The proactive controls which can be configured to a granular level allowing the organization the flexibility to meet the changing demands of the workforce."
"One thing for sure, is that it is the most comprehensive solution out there in the market."
"Its value for us comes from the fact that it allows us to manage the entire identity lifecycle, including the on-boarding (provisioning), off-boarding (de-provisioning), modifications to the identities, self-service, password management, and administration of identities."
"Once integrated, the administration console, integrated workflows (Entitlement requests) for approvals and self service features."
"Good features are the RBAC and UI customization."
"We decided to go with Oracle because, when we did those different types of tests, they scored better than the other provider in all aspects."
"The most valuable feature is the set of out-of-the-box connectors."
"The capability of writing a custom connector makes this product flexible enough to potentially reach all types of target systems."
 

Cons

"The security aspect could be more effective."
"The synchronization could be improved."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"Software or patch management solutions must be complemented with something beyond Microsoft Intune because it doesn't upgrade or manage a list of integrated packages and lacks the capacity to upgrade all kinds of software on computers."
"One thing that could be better in Microsoft Intune is the file size, as it is quite large at times."
"The reporting functionality of Microsoft Intune is limited compared to Microsoft System Center, which offers many more reporting options."
"A new Intune feature allows application packaging, but it incurs additional licensing costs for a significant number of applications."
"It's only good for a Microsoft environment. While it works very well for Microsoft users but if you have other kinds of operating systems, it's very painful to use."
"Its performance needs enhancement."
"There are certain shortcomings in the licensing model of the product where improvements are required."
"Microsoft's feature management is based on licenses. Microsoft follows ethical licensing and hence do not restrict the use of it."
"The licensing can be messy at times."
"The technical support from Microsoft could be better."
"Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security is expensive."
"They should improve dedicated solutions because they offer everything, but you always end up missing something."
"The auditing and reporting could be updated and upgraded. I would like to see light applications because they consume a lot of the device's memory at present."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult compared to other tools."
"Oracle Identity Governance, particularly version 12c, can handle multiple scenarios, but for a regular user, I found the use cases not that extensive, so this is an area for improvement. The implementation process for Oracle Identity Governance is also a bit more complex than how you implement competitor products, and this is another area for improvement in the solution. Technical support for Oracle Identity Governance also needs some improvement. Another area for improvement in Oracle Identity Governance is its documentation. Currently, it's lacking when compared to SailPoint. What I'd like to see in the next release of Oracle Identity Governance is a bit more scope for AI-based Identity governance. If the solution has built-in intelligence, that will give it more leverage. Another feature I'd like to see in Oracle Identity Governance in the future is the option for managers to provide access to others via mobile devices or phones."
"The cost of this product needs to be reduced."
"I am not currently recommending the product to clients because there are other good products on the market that can be implemented and used in their environments with minimal customization."
"Oracle's support is not as good as that of other vendors."
"It responds fast but because of the bugs, we have already had some major incidents and complete unavailability."
"The platform could be enhanced with additional features."
"The initial setup is complex. It's not easy to deploy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Intune is inexpensive. It also comes bundled in some Office 365 licenses, so you can choose to purchase it separately or as a package."
"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
"Intune is linked with Microsoft. We can deploy the Microsoft E365 license to users by Intune. There are different types of licenses, such as device administrator licenses, E5 licenses for device enrollment manually, and P1 and p2 licenses for device enrollment automatically. These are the licenses required for the administration."
"All security solutions worldwide are expensive. Microsoft has allowed a small scale of features within Microsoft Intune for cost-efficient solutions. If you want the full suite, you need to invest more to gain better security features."
"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"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."
"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"I would rate pricing at eight out of ten. It is a bit higher because of the security features that Microsoft provides."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"We have to pay 10 dollars per user. I would rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"The increase in the prices of the product might not be the actual problem, but things become complex with some new plans that were introduced by Microsoft recently."
"The licensing is expensive."
"I do not know specific pricing but the product is expensive when compared to other OIM products."
"The licensing cost for Oracle Identity Governance is very high, so I'd rate it two out of five."
"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."
"The price of the implementation of Oracle Identity Governance is more of a concern than the cost of the solution. The effort that you have to do to put the solution in place is higher than the license cost."
"I can't say much about the pricing for Oracle Identity Governance because it's different from one geography to another. In India, the license price costs less than in other geographies."
"The price is based on the number of users per year."
"Oracle licenses are expensive. I suggest making pricing and licensing decisions that align with architectural requirements and the project's budget."
