Microsoft Intune Reviews

Intune is our primary tool for managing our devices, including security profiles, confirmation profiles, applications, deployment, updates, etc. It manages all of our workstations but not the servers. It helps us manage and monitor devices, but we use Microsoft Defender for threat discovery and things like that. It's all within the E5 license. We also manage Android and iOS devices. 

Previously, they were using SCCM. It's an on-prem server, so you must maintain, update, and secure it. With Intune, you don't have to manage anything. Everything is available through a console on the web, so I think it's way better.  Enrollment and deployment are easy. 

Intune helps us protect data on the end-user computers, but we need another solution for the servers that Intune does not cover. However, we group computers and the endpoints with the security panel and connect them to Microsoft Defender. Everything reported in Defender can be customized in the Intune security section, like the security rules, local rules, firewall rules, exclusions, etc. 

Intune reduces the risk of security breaches because we follow some well-known security baselines that we translate into configuration and security profiles and apply at large. It's helpful for pushing out security stuff.

Intune is effective because of the configuration management and endpoint security it provides. The graphical interface makes it easier to configure and deploy devices. 

Intune has some limitations when it comes to application updates for third-party applications. You can schedule an update, but when it's a package setup, you need to supercede and replace it each time.  

I have used Intune for three years.

I rate Intune nine out of ten for stability. 

I rate Intune eight out of ten for scalability.

I previously used Microsoft SCCM. 

Intune is all on the cloud. I wasn't there when they migrated. 

I would say Intune is totally worth what we pay for it because you can customize and do everything related to the configuration, security policies, monitoring, etc. 

 Intune is included in the Microsoft E5 license.

I rate Microsoft Intune eight out of ten. 

We primarily use Microsoft Intune for device management and application management. It allows us to control and restrict user access, preventing data sharing and leakage. 

Additionally, we utilize it for endpoint management of Windows and Mac devices, ensuring their security and compliance.

The benefits include that it's very easy to deploy and integrate. Users actually feel satisfied and have a great experience with it.

The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console.

Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement.

I have been working with Microsoft Intune for eight years. I currently use the latest version.

It is a stable solution. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. Sometimes we get some alerts from Microsoft Intune, but our team is responsible for managing that internally.

It is a scalable solution. Around 3,000 endpoints are being utilized in our organization. 

 Customer service and support are good.

Positive

We used VMware AirWatch. We switched because of the ease of use that we get from Intune. It's much simpler to work with.

The initial setup was very easy, not at all complex.

We have our own team that handles the deployment. Three to four people were included in the process. 

The deployment process was simple. We just enrolled devices and created the necessary policies, and that's it. It took approximately twenty to forty minutes, depending upon the use case.

Moreover, it is easy to create policies with Intune. It's not difficult at all to maintain. We have the same team taking care of the maintenance.

Just go with it. It's very simple to use. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

We're an MSP, and our primary use case is for fleet management; our entire fleet is handled through Intune, so all our mobile devices are logged in through the Azure portal, and we can manage our apps that way. We've been able to lock down our devices and control our field of frontline workers.

The solution allows us to keep track of an extensive device fleet so we know where they are and whether they're secure and compliant. Those that aren't compliant enter a pool, and our tech staff work to rectify that. Intune improved our organization by helping keep our data secure.

The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance.

Due to the abundance of features, there's a lot to organize, which makes managing and setting up the solution challenging. The setup is immense, and it would be good to see improvement in this area.

The stability could be improved. 

We've been using Intune for around six years. 

Intune is a stable platform for the most part, though Microsoft can still make some improvements in this area. 

The solution is very scalable. 

Microsoft has slow technical support; getting through to anyone typically takes a day or two. Once we get through, then the support is good.

Neutral

The deployment is relatively straightforward; we send out an email, and our users click the link; it downloads the tool to their phones, and they can log in using their credentials. If it's set up correctly, then the deployment is easy.

The solution requires a small amount of maintenance; I have one full-time member of staff to maintain 420 total devices split between two of our clients. 

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.

I rate the solution seven out of ten. 

My advice to those evaluating Intune is that you need to know Azure. This isn't a product you can jump into without prior Azure knowledge.

Mostly the pricing can be improved. If you are using the solution with EMS E3, then it's very expensive, but if you are using it in combination with a lot of products, then it can be cheap. Microsoft doesn't sell Intune separately. That's another consideration. The third thing would be how to view the use case because Microsoft doesn't release any documentation on how to view it when you adopt Microsoft EMS. 

Their technical support could also be improved.

It is very stable.

It's scalable because this is a cloud solution only. They don't have it on-premises.

With Microsoft technical support, they only fix Teams and when they are open, they're mostly trying to close again at the quickest time. Sometimes, the solutions given are not very good.

It depends on the use case. If you only focus on Mobile Device Management, then it is very easy to setup. You just have to define the use case in the context you want to protect. If you are talking about how to integrate with the lock analytics and how to classify data in context, then this is another thing.

The main difference between Intune and Workspace ONE is the quality integration between Microsoft products and Office 365, which means that Intune is part of a solution; you are not only using Intune, but you have to think about its ecosystem. For example, with EMS, it will have at least three products. The first is Azure ID Premium, which is the IAM solution (Identity and Access Management), so there are use cases where you might need to use IAM. The one difference between EMS and Workspace ONE, since Workspace ONE doesn't focus on identity management, is that it only has the access part. It can leverage all identity management, like with the directory or any of the identity solutions. 

The second difference is in the integration with Office 365 because in the Office 365 ecosystem, you have a lot of products, like Azure Information Protection, which is focused on the labeling and classifying of data. Microsoft also has Defender DLP and Defender for Endpoint. These make up a total solution. Based on that, if you have a long-term roadmap, you can actually integrate it with other Microsoft security solutions, like Sentinel, which is a SIEM solution. When choosing Intune, the main difference is the ecosystem and the roadmap.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

For advice, it depends on the use case you are trying to solve here. If we have a look at the use case for security, how would you control the mobile? How would you deploy? How would you protect them based on that? The lesson depends on the answers to those questions.

The solution has a holistic approach. The device management, application management, identity management, and cybersecurity features are valuable. It brings all of the endpoint and security management tools into one place. It provides complete integration with Microsoft products. It provides full endpoint visibility and IT controls across device platforms.

It makes the security measurements easier to maintain. The user experience is sufficiently good. It helps secure hybrid work and protect data. The tool provides an add-on that integrates artificial intelligence and Microsoft Graph. It is a good development. The product has affected IT productivity in our organization.

It's a good platform for management and security for all kinds of devices. There is less trouble for the users so they can do more. For the IT team, the product provides a guarantee of security. The solution has reduced the risk of security breaches by 30%. It has helped us save on direct and indirect costs. We are a global organization. We need fewer resources and are more secure due to the solution. There are much less incidents based on security.

The tool helps consolidate vendors. There is much more functionality that we can leverage. It has positively affected the security posture of the organization and licensing costs. The capabilities of Intune that are integrated with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security are very important. I work in environments that are completely Microsoft-dominated. The more we use Microsoft, the better the integration. It is easier to connect the different parts. I am satisfied with the product’s performance.

The add-ons must be integrated into the solution. They should not be separate add-ons. The add-ons have artificial intelligence and must be part of the base product.

I have been using the solution for very long.

I am satisfied with the product’s scalability.

The technical support is quite reasonable.

Neutral

The pricing is competitive, but it is not cheap. All the licenses are not cheap nowadays.

I have used AirWatch in my previous organization. The integration provided by Microsoft Intune is its biggest advantage over its competitors. Most of the integration with third-party tools is good.

I'm familiar with Microsoft Intune from the beginning. I have heard that the solution’s Tunnel for MAM feature enables users to use their private phones to make a secure connection to the company's network to access company resources. I haven’t used it yet. We are partners and customers. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for endpoint management, which includes security and compliance. 

We are a remote company, and the product helps us manage the global endpoints. It helps us natively manage the endpoints in the cloud from anywhere. 

Microsoft Intune's most valuable feature is Autopilot. 

We faced issues with macOS support. The product should have better inventory and asset management. 

I have been using the product for four to five years. 

Microsoft Intune is stable. 

My company has 200 users. 

Microsoft Intune's deployment is straightforward. 

We did the deployment in-house. 

I liked the tool's pricing until P2 came into effect. I am unsure about the current value versus the cost of the new licensing model. 

Microsoft Intune has improved access to devices for remote wipes. We can act quickly whenever someone leaves a company or a device gets stolen. It offers more visibility into our IT group. 

The tool's cloud-focused availability has improved the organizational security posture. It has helped to save time. We can do a lot more with a smaller team.

I rate the product a nine out of ten.  

Intune provides a platform for managing all our devices, including mobile iOS devices and PC workstations. It can also control some aspects of servers.

We can automatically enroll our devices with Intune. It helps us implement company-wide policies and ensure regulatory compliance because we can restrict how company devices are used. Intune improves security by enabling us to set conditional access policies for each device. 

Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click. Conditional access is another essential feature. 

You can set up two profiles on every device to keep personal data separate from company data, and the employee cannot copy data between them. This is a critical requirement for most companies to avoid the loss of sensitive data.  

Intune doesn't provide much control over Windows servers. It's something we struggle with.

I have worked with Intune for six years.

Intune is mostly stable. Microsoft guarantees 97 percent availability throughout the year, so it's pretty stable. 

Intune is scalable. 

I have used multiple endpoint management solutions in the past nine years. I also work with Jamf, a solution that focuses on iOS devices. Compared to Jamf, Intune also has some limitations when working with iOS. For example, Jamf can create specific policies for each iOS device, whereas Intune can't go that far. It also has role-based and device-based features. You can do more customization on iOS devices with Jamf. 

The initial installation isn't too difficult, but it can be complex if you have a large number of devices and need to do lots of customization. It is more complicated to onboard Windows PCs versus mobile devices, which are pretty easy.

The number of staff members required also varies according to the job and the timeline for deployment. For example, I would probably need additional resources if I'm enrolling 20,000 devices in under a month. However, we don't need too many resources if we have enough time

Intune is a cloud-based solution, so Microsoft is responsible for maintaining the infrastructure. We only need to handle the administrative and configuration adjustments on our side. 

Most clients get the ROI they expect, with the exception of those organizations that primarily use Mac and iOS. Jamf is more appropriate for iOS users. You may need to buy two solutions if you have a mixture.

Intune is reasonably priced. When we design a solution, we always compare costs for the client, but I don't know the price of Intune off the top of my head right now. It varies depending on the size of your organization, the market, and the reseller. You can buy a stand-alone license for Intune, or it may be included in a 365 license. 

I rate Microsoft Intune nine out of 10. 

Before implementing Intune or any endpoint management solution, I recommend looking at your internal requirements. Are most of your devices iOS or Android? Do you need automated enrollment? Go for Intune if you're using mostly Android mobile devices and Windows PCs.

When using Microsoft Intune our main focus was on Office 365. Our Azure Active Directory was only held up for users. When we had implemented the endpoint user management in our workstations in a cloud environment, then we started to use Microsoft Intune on an everyday basis, such as remote connection, deploying workstations, Autopilot, and deploying applications. It is a great tool.

Microsoft Intune is a cloud solution. For an on-premise solution, you have SCCM from Microsoft. However, it is old and it will be an obsolete tool soon. There are other solutions such as ManageEngine. Microsoft Intune tool is in the cloud and we can manage everything. You can manage Azure AD, Intune, and not only mobile hand devices, such as iOS or Android, the main focus is on workstations. This is what makes the solution powerful.

I expect Microsoft Intune to have more features in the cloud because there are two major functionalities that we need to be added. This is software metering and license management. These functionalities, for now, must be on-premise. For this purpose, we have set up a SQL Server and I hope that in near future this option will be in the cloud in Microsoft Intune.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for approximately two years.

The stability of Microsoft Intune is great.

Microsoft Intune is highly scalable. When you configure your network connection, there are a lot of firewalls and you can optimize your internet speed. Everything works great. You can tune up some repository sizes with Microsoft because if you have large applications, such as AutoCAD, when you upload the images to the cloud it takes some time and it needs more space.

We had four people in my company that used Microsoft Intune on approximately 100 systems.

The technical support of Microsoft Intune is good.

I previously used BEAM for client management from an American company and SCCM from Microsoft. Additionally, I used ManageEngine and Lansweeper. Lansweeper was a light tool with similar functionality. We use it in combination with TeamViewer.

We have projects all over the world. It took us four months to implement Intune Microsoft Intune for approximately 100 clients in three countries. We implemented it in many locations, such as Germany in three cities, Croatia, and Bosnia, there is a total of 50 locations. Microsoft Intune is easy to work with.

The initial setup is not simple, you need a specialist to be involved that has the appropriate experience. This is not a solution where out of the box you run the executable file on your system and hit next, next, to finish the installation.

Microsoft Intune requires specialists to implement the solution. We used an external team of two engineer specialists that was dedicated to the project. I helped too because I have experience in plant management.

There is a license required to use the solution. If you're core users in Office 365, for example, you have Outlook email and E3 license, this is only email. You have to buy an EMS license to have Microsoft Intune. It is expensive.

I would recommend the solution to others.

I rate Microsoft Intune a nine out of ten.
