Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Allows an ease of access to various systems and has a straightforward setup process
The product allows easy access to any system in case of any issues We cannot see the number of monitors working on the system simultaneously. It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows. The product's stability depends on the network's stability in our…

Secure, reliable, and great for remote access
It makes access very easy. If we have to work at night or after office hours, if customers report a problem, we can solve issues remotely, outside of office hours, from wherever. The initial setup is straightforward. The solution is stable. It is scalable. Technical support is easy to reach.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"A great solution for anyone wanting a modern endpoint device management solution."
"If I assess Intune's user experience, I would say it is perfect and simple."
"Windows Autopatch is the most valuable because it removes the burden of patch management."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the user-friendly portal for end users."
"It has a useful device management feature."
"The most valuable feature is that we can manage workstations or Android devices remotely without needing the device to be connected to our local network."
"The automatic patch management feature in the Intune Suite is helpful."
"I find the mouse control and the ability to click for them very effective. I can move the mouse and click on buttons as if sitting at their computer. These are the basic features I use most often in the solution. There are tricker features that I don't use much because I don't need them frequently. Overall, it's a great tool for helping others with their computer issues without traveling to their location or another building."
"The solution is scalable."
"This is a unique solution that is very easy to install."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"Our computers are spread amongst six physical locations. TeamViewer reduces the need to travel to those offices to help staff."
"The product is easy to install."
"The implementation is quite straightforward."
"We also use it a lot for remote site assistance. We've set up our internal authentication for unattended access to our remote sites. That makes it very easy and convenient to remotely connect with our users and our client machines whenever we need to. It's set as a direct, secure connection. As long as the station has internet access, we can see it and it makes remote support very simple."
"Screen monitoring and screen sharing, as well as screen remote control, are all very useful features."
"It is a scalable solution. "
"Technical support is easy to reach."
 

Cons

"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"The technical support could be improved."
"The solution requires Mac support."
"Microsoft Intune needs to improve the initial login process."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"More integration with monitoring tools is needed."
"For an existing customer who has an SCCM, it would need to be upgraded to an MECM first before I can introduce Microsoft Intune."
"The solution could have better scalability."
"TeamViewer can improve by making the interface more user-friendly. It looks very basic, they can make it more modern and easy to use."
"It would be useful if the solution could facilitate more than one remote user accessing my desktop at a time."
"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."
"If they could figure out a little better solution for the iOS stuff other than just a screen share, even though it's an Apple thing, and Apple doesn't like to give up control of their devices. If they ever got to that point, and I could manipulate an iPad or iPhone, that would be awesome. Since we have a bunch of iPad users who are struggling with doing different things, it would be nice to be able to just jump on and actually show them, "Here, do this, this, and this." Similar to what we do with the laptops, e.g. for training."
"The installation and the update agent could improve."
"The support could improve their speed."
"It needs to have proper authentication. I would like to see in-depth integration with Google and Microsoft products, for example. It would be nice to have a cell phone version as well."
"It could be integrated with IT management tools."
"They do have some glitches in the microphone and speaker, especially during remote access."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft licenses are costly."
"It is not expensive."
"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."
"The pricing is inherently reasonable, as Microsoft leverages market insights to maintain the total cost of ownership at around ninety to ninety-five percent of what would be incurred in an on-premise scenario."
"Microsoft Intune is available for individual purchase at a low per-device cost."
"I am not that aware of the pricing, but as compared to other MDM solutions, Microsoft is providing a lot of things at the organizational level. So, it is quite reasonable as compared to other MDM solutions."
"There is a cost benefit of using Microsoft Intune because of the packaging with other Microsoft products."
"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."
"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."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."
"The cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer has multiple licensing options."
"TeamViewer's price is cheaper than some other similar solutions. We have licenses for our users."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"Its scalability depends on the business model we purchase."
