Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies

Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting

Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Journey orchestration has improved fraud prevention but still needs shared rules and better usability

The main improvement needed is that with the tool, you have to build rules for each and every application. There is no common place where you can write the rules and use that rule for all your applications, which is missing. This is a big feature that is missing compared to the other products in the market. Additionally, the SDKs, Journey Player, and other components are not business-friendly, so you really have to be technical to get into it and do those things. A non-technical person would find it really hard to implement and learn things inside Transmit Security. Even though it requires less coding, you still have to have some technical people in your team to really write the rules and integrate those rules into your application.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."

"The solution is easy to use, simple to understand for those new to using it, and combined with the other Microsoft products it makes for an overall good package."

"The technical support of Microsoft Intune is good."

"It is a cloud solution, and you can easily scale as your needs grow."

"The solution is scalable, and we currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."

"If you are looking for endpoint protection and compliance, Microsoft Intune is definitely a go-to product."

"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."

"The main benefit for us with Microsoft Intune is centralized management of all devices, allowing us to apply one policy across the company from one location."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"Quicker and easier to connect to our customers’ PCs to resolve software issues."

"I use TeamViewer to connect to other workstations, Mac, or PC without a VPN connection."

"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."

"TeamViewer is very easy to set up, use, and instruct others to get running, which is great for support."

"Quite literally, without TeamViewer's capabilities, we wouldn't be able to run our business."

"Previously we spent around three hours to troubleshoot or resolve P1 issues, but now it takes around 45 minutes."

"I would happily recommend this product for both personal and commercial reasons because of its price and also because of its ease of use."

"It’s so great for when you need to provide remote support, allowing us to troubleshoot in real-time, with good configuration and structure, easy installation, strong stability, good scalability, and it isn’t expensive at all."

More TeamViewer pros

"Transmit Security has played a major role for our organization, especially in the authentication areas."

"Transmit Security has impacted my organization positively because it is reassuring to know that we are building on top of a trusted tool, and we do not rely on developers that could make mistakes, and because it is an authentication platform, that could be detrimental."

"Transmit interface is flexible and user-friendly, which is important for our workload. Switching from one authentication code to multiple exposure or two-factor authentication (MFA) is seamless."

"Transmit Security has positively impacted my organization by improving the development of workflows in order to help the user experience."

Cons

"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."

"Microsoft support was not very responsive, and it took approximately one and a half months to get on a call to clear what the problem was."

"The downsides of Microsoft Intune include the fact that the interface can sometimes be complex for new administrators."

"The solution could be improved by the opportunity to connect third-party application databases, such as Chocolatey or another setup store, to Intune."

"Sometimes, the process is unsuccessful when we attempt to reset a device and wipe the data using Intune."

"The UI is not user-friendly and has room for improvement."

"It would be awesome if Microsoft opened their API so we could filter more properties. If we have to do anything outside of Intune that requires a third-party solution to talk back to it, we're very limited in what we can do. Trust your people. We promise not to break your stuff. Open it up just a tiny bit wider."

"In the past, I raised some tickets for the enhancement feature, which was missing in Intune."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"The connection and reconnection sometimes lag and can cause problems."

"Unfortunately, the software is hit or miss when it comes to iOS devices, especially Macs."

"Sometimes it lags. They need to optimize it a bit."

"This solution could be improved by offering more flexibility in terms of usage."

"ITBrain should be embedded in the product and not an expensive add-on."

"On occasion, when remote connection process can't connect to a machine, the error messages aren't always helpful to tell you why you can't connect, as the message doesn't help troubleshoot whether it is too slow, too much interference, etc. I usually have to run to another computer and figure out what is going on, then restart it. The diagnostics could be improved."

"The performance could always be better."

"The voice chat could be better."

More TeamViewer cons

"The customer support varies, but overall, we are satisfied."

"The scalability of Transmit Security is a little bit tricky. It is not easy to scale and depends on the complexity of my workflows and how many users I am going to support."

"Pricing is an area where Transmit Security could improve. The pricing needs to be more competitive."

"The main improvement needed is that with the tool, you have to build rules for each and every application."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."

"The cost is handled through our Office 365 license, so I have yet to be able to compare it directly with other tools in its class."

"Intune is moderately expensive. You can get the license bundled with Office 365 E3 or E5 licenses. The E5s are a bit expensive, but you get some cheaper solutions with Intune."

"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."

"Any bundle package, such as Security E3, covers multiple things, such as AAP, BitLocker, etc. If you go for them individually, they would be more expensive. Bundling makes the price more attractive and competitive."

"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."

"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."

"Its price is in the medium range. It is acceptable because you're paying for the features. I am not aware of any additional costs."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."

"TeamViewer pricing is reasonable... The simultaneous controller licensing model of TeamViewer - compared to LogMeIn’s controlled Host licensing model - seems to benefit us so far. We’re currently saving about 30 percent on licensing cost... The savings from licensing have been eaten up by the soft costs involved in dealing with and working around TeamViewer’s deficiencies in allowing granular control by multiple controllers, and the issues with the various settings that are missing on the macOS Host."

"It would be nice if it is cheaper."

"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."

"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."

"TeamViewer was willing to give us a one-year package. Whereas, a lot of the other companies that we explored were paid by the month or quarter. It's just easier for our finance people at the college if we can make a one-time yearly payment."

"TeamViewer has multiple licensing options."

"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
