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.

Simple to set up, reasonable pricing, and useful remote control capabilities
I'm on the latest version of the solution. I just updated it yesterday. While we have the solution on-premises at this time, we'll likely move to the cloud later this year. They have a trial version that you can try. They have a free version that you can try as well. I use it myself to support my family. I would try the free version or the trial version depending on your business. They can set you up and you can get to see all the features. I would also advocate going to the cloud version. Don't bother with the on-prem. It's just easier to jump to the cloud. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Good tech support
The location markings can appear incorrectly. If the customer shows his location on camera, on our machinery, but then moves it to another location and, subsequently, back to the original one, the location markings will appear incorrectly. We are talking about the augmented reality features. While I recommend the solution, the customer may face difficulties with screen sharing, such as occurs with our customers when it comes to working in an infrastructured area like a factory. We regularly get confused, as we also provide remote technical support. The initial setup is complex.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"The ability to work from all over the planet is valuable. You just need a functioning and working Internet connection."
"The best feature of Microsoft Intune is that it managed the endpoints."
"The solution offers very good integration with broader enterprise systems and allows companies to capitalize on costs, especially if they are a Microsoft shop."
"I like Intune's ability to manage roles, maintenance tasks, compliance settings, and patch development for all endpoints."
"Intune's most valuable feature is its centralized management capability."
"My favorite feature about Microsoft Intune is that I have good logging capabilities; I can effectively troubleshoot, though I'm also missing some aspects."
"Valuable features include the responsiveness, ability to tune up and tune down the connection, and video."
"It's worth using over the others because it makes unattended remote access faster and simpler than the other products I tried."
"Their licensing model is good, their pricing model is good, their service is good, bandwidth is excellent."
"The product works very well and is easy for end users to install."
"I am overall satisfied with the product."
"Remote connect via webpage. I use it to support employees when I am not in the office or when they are at a remote location."
"The ConnectWise ScreenConnect tool is very good for remote access."
"In terms of pricing, this has been the most affordable, reliable and convenient remote assistance software/service that I have come across."
"Technical support has good responsiveness."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to do a virtual reality kind of presentation where you're able to annotate scenes to illustrate what you mean when you're talking to a customer."
"It's easy enough to use."
"Technical support has good responsiveness, although they have recently made modifications to their licensing model."
 

Cons

"There are differences in protecting the data on a mobile device and on iOS. When you protect the data on iOS, you protect the entire device."
"We would like to see support for Chrome and/or devices for Chromebooks."
"When somebody has a customized application or their own company's application, we cannot deploy that application."
"It is not very stable. Sometimes, it works instantly, and sometimes, something goes wrong, and you get stuck there."
"We need the capabilities of the Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) to be enhanced through Intune instead of Azure."
"I cannot think of any particular features which I consider to be most valuable."
"My experience with them was very bad. They don't know about their own product."
"From an end-user perspective of Microsoft Intune, I haven't experienced any challenges since installation. However, some customers have reported experiencing slowness when using lower versions of the Android system."
"My immediate supervisor said it was lacking in documentation and had too many words to describe how to use the product when crafting instructions to send to our third party consultant who was going to connect to our system behind our firewall."
"Something that I would like to see in the future is mobile video streaming."
"Speed is a major factor in Automate, and the control panel is horribly slow."
"If it had Chrome capability, that would be great; being able to use it on a Chrome device. Right now, I can't use it on my Chrome device."
"Setting up permissions and groups in the portal is NOT simple or intuitive by any stretch."
"I really didn't care for the onboarding process and it is something that should be improved."
"The solution is a little bit complicated when you want to implement it."
"The ability to autolock Windows desktop on remote computers after a remote session disconnects would be ideal."
"The location markings can appear incorrectly."
"It's quite power-hungry and some customers complain that it drains the batteries on their smartphones very quickly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is good because customers are not complaining about it."
"Microsoft's licensing is more flexible and adaptive than its competitors."
"We are partners, so we receive some discount. However, from the customer's perspective, Microsoft Intune's pricing is competitive with non-Microsoft technology, and the price is good compared to other market competitors."
"The price of Microsoft Intune is reasonable."
"While Microsoft Intune boasts a wide range of features, its user-friendliness and bundled licensing cost are key considerations for me."
"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"It is average. Some of the costs are quite high depending on what the customer currently uses, but overall, it is not bad. I would not say that I would not recommend Intune based on the cost. I definitely would, but they can definitely improve on the cost. So overall, its cost is not bad."
"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"For the price we pay, we definitely feel it's worth it, but there are some contenders in the market that are coming out now, whose products are as good; they are offering more features and the price is actually less than ConnectWise. All things considered, the biggest thing is the lack of patching in ConnectWise. If they could integrate that into the product, that would be a game changer, if offered at the same price point."
"It is priced fairly."
"I think the product's pricing is a good value. I paid $600 a year and that was fine for me. It was about $50 a month. Licensing is all very straightforward."
"Pricing is fair for Control and the licensing is simple."
"We pay an annual licensing fee."
"We pay $85 per month for each user for a ConnectWise package with multiple solutions."
"Good price and works well."
"Make sure you have enough licensing for all the techs that you have."
"It is not an expensive product."
"We pay for the licensing monthly."
