Automation has improved uptime and manages hundreds of uplinked TV channels reliably

With the help of Teleport, we are managing many channels. I find it easy to manage how to uplink the channels, and we are automating many things in our setups. We have an MCR, an automatic NMS, and a data center. We have managed it well to make life easier for my employees and colleagues. Teleport has helped us minimize incidents and maintain our uplinking time and uptime. Our organization's uptime is 99.90%, which is almost 100%. With Teleport, we can achieve this uptime by using the best equipment and best automation systems, such as alarms. We have applied DataMiner, Barco systems for alarming, and DataMiner for managing the RF things. We have applied many systems in Teleport.

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

"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."

"Teleport has helped us minimize incidents and maintain our uplinking time and uptime, and our organization's uptime is 99.90%, which is almost 100%."

"I would definitely advise others looking into using Teleport to try it out if they are seeking a tunneling or proxying solution to streamline obtaining access without dealing with DNS or SSH, as it is straightforward to install, can be tested in various environments, and is a truly exceptional product that is easy to use."

"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."

"Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."

"App delivery and management platform that's user-friendly, with a good interface. Easy to scale, easy to set up, with good stability."

"We recently integrated Workspace ONE with our intelligence report, and this is a great tool from a reporting point of view. In our daily business, we get several requests from businesses to provide an Adobe request for monitoring, whether it is for Android or iOS devices. The main benefit of this tool is that we can exclude the report for applications."

"It is like any other mobile solution. It gives us the ability to control remotely, and that is what we like. We can wipe out and deploy remotely."

"VMware Workspace ONE is scalable."

"If an end-user has an issue with a device, the administration has the ability to remote access the device after approval from the end-user."

"It's all about securing data with the help of the email client called VMware Boxer. It enables the end-user to carry data in their mobile devices but there is containerization between the personal data and the organization's data. It helps enhance their security while still carrying their own BYOD."

"We've configured single sign-on for two or three enterprise customers, and it works very well."

More Workspace ONE UEM pros

Cons

"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."

"Managing 700 to 800 services is not easy."

"Teleport is simple to use, but sometimes it requires extra research for more unique tasks, which slightly detracts from its overall quality."

"This product makes use of SAML across the board, which has seven known security flaws. It would be good if the company created a way to protect against SAML flaws. One way would be to integrate a firewall server or an endpoint out in the cloud with which you could establish trust. If you knew nothing about SAML and you did some Google searches about what SAML is, what are the flaws, and what are the known vulnerabilities, eventually, you'll find that there are seven flaws. There are two methods that you can use to solve those seven problems. They essentially involve putting a firewall or putting rules, such as access controls, so that anybody in the world can't just come in, authenticate, and either be a good guy or be someone trying to knock on my door and get into my house. If I could eliminate that, it would be awesome."

"They need a more flexible pricing model."

"AirWatch doesn't seem to empower IT admins to try new things or get creative with implementations."

"I would like to see technology expense management integrated into the next release. This feature would allow us to manage expenses across various workloads and services, including cloud environments and computing resources."

"The initial setup should be simplified."

"Feature-wise, it is fine, but its pricing could be better, given that Microsoft is on a bundling spree. AirWatch would benefit from reducing the license pricing per user per month."

"When it comes to deployment and maintaining security, there should be an integrated console where you have a singular view of all of the products from the same OEM."

"There should be better compatibility with Linux devices."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Currently, the product is priced at around 50 USD."

"There is a licensing fee for the users, and we pay a low amount for our support costs."

"The tool is expensive."

"All licenses from VMware are only yearly. They start with a yearly license and look for a three-year commitment and yearly PO."

"Its pricing was okay for our company."

"A person should pay towards the licensing costs of VMware Identity Manager on a yearly or monthly basis, but government and public sector units cannot for a perpetual licensing model."

"While the platform offers comprehensive solutions, it can be expensive, especially if you only need it for occasional testing and deployment."

"It's an expensive tool."

Reviews from Real Users

Below is some feedback from our PeerSpot users who are currently using the solution:

PeerSpot user Patrick B., Cybersecurity Architect at a tech services company, says, "Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."

Roshan T., Partner Manager North America at a tech company, mentions how satisfied he is with the product, saying, "You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
