Senior Business Development Executive at Digitaltrack
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.

Easy to use and set up with easy mobile access to reports
The initial setup is quite straightforward and simple. It only takes one day to set up. At the time of SAP implementation, it's a part of the portfolio. It's a one-time activity that you have just implemented in your ERP boxes. After that, you have to install a mobile application on Android or iOS, and you can use your user ID and password credentials, and you can access your reports. Once it's installed, you only need one IT person to align things. It doesn't take a big team. They can generate and change reports as necessary. If you need to change certain things, you need an SAP developer. There is no admin team requirement, and you can access it from anywhere.

Trainer/Consultant at Koenig Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I appreciate how easy it is to deploy certificates to end users to get control over their device with Microsoft Intune; that's what Microsoft Intune is known for, and that's what we use them for."
"The best features include the management, which is quite good, and endpoints."
"Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."
"Microsoft Intune is the best solution available; we can connect with any device and handle all queries, which sets it apart from other tools available in the market."
"Turning the endpoint infrastructure into a highly efficient operation was the best thing that happened to our organization."
"I would say that Microsoft Intune is absolutely the right choice for any organization that is already invested in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem and wants a unified cloud-native endpoint management approach."
"The best feature is that we don't need to worry about downtime. We don't need to worry about the network connections of our office or the virtual private network. Everything is being done through the internet. Using Intune Autopilot, we can configure and deploy everything to the devices."
"The best features of Microsoft Intune include continuous implementation of new capabilities each year, covering almost everything."
"If you need to access company reports on the go, you can pull them up on your phone, which allows for immediate access without the need to carry around your laptop everywhere."
"Everything is available to you from your handset."
"Remote management is most valuable. It allows you to manage multiple types of devices. It is not just limited to laptops or desktops. You can also manage IoT devices. If a device is lost or stolen, you can easily take control of the device without letting any information get leaked."
"We can impose cybersecurity requirements."
"The feature that we find most valuable is the corporate email pushing."
"It is easy to start something and work from scratch."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the tracking of the devices, as we can track Android devices and cross-functional devices in Workspace ONE in a simplified platform for managing all of our devices."
"The product offers very good performance, we are able to use HTML for the web connection which is quite helpful, and the solution has proven to be very stable and rather scalable."
"We've found the solution to be easy to use."
"When compared to other products, AirWatch is highly scalable, redundant, reliable, and easily manageable."
 

Cons

"I would like Intune to natively support easier report generation. This improvement would enable less experienced staff to run reports more efficiently without relying on additional tools or functions."
"Microsoft Intune can be improved in terms of reporting, customization, troubleshooting visibility, and policy deployment speed in large environments; some advanced configurations can also be complex during initial setup and management."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"Intune's areas for improvement revolve around security and certificate management."
"At this time, I do not have any areas for improvement. I have heard about some downtime, but I am not in the local IT team."
"I want more secure, reliable, and efficient security policies."
"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"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."
"We would like it if SAP could integrate the transactional mode as well so that users can perform transactional jobs by mobile-only."
"It's a costly product. It would help if they could offer it at a discount."
"There could be improvements to Workspace ONE in terms of the pricing and some security aspects such as data loss prevention."
"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved."
"Customer Service: With Enterprise Service agreement it is a 5/10. Without Enterprise Service agreement it is a 3/10."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"I'd like to see more integration capabilities in future releases."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around. It required some API integration required because visitor integration was not there. For example, we are currently working on a tunnel issue, and VMware doesn't have this solution."
"The product's stability for certain instances needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is reasonable for the features it has."
"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"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 product is offered as part of a Microsoft standard bundle. The pricing can be competitive to Airwatch, and Maas360."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"We spend a lot of money on Intune licensing, and some of our users have to be double licensed just because of how our dev and corporate environments are segmented."
"With our standard E5 agreement with Microsoft, there have been no pricing concerns. Introductory professional services, like a fast-track service, were included with our E5 membership, and there have been no additional costs."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
Information not available
"The price of VMware Workspace ONE is expensive. However, for the features that are provided, the price is reasonable. There is a subscription to use the solution."
"While the platform offers comprehensive solutions, it can be expensive, especially if you only need it for occasional testing and deployment."
"While it is not inexpensive in terms of price, it is definitely worth it."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"You should take out a dedicated license agreement of your MDM fleet and invest heavily in innovating in this space."
"Pricing is an area that could be improved."
"Our customers are concerned about the costs. The solution is higher than they want it to be."
"The solution is more expensive than Intune."
