Microsoft Intune Reviews

We're using it for endpoints or mobile devices. We are mainly using it for endpoints. For mobile devices, we are mainly using Workspace ONE.

The key benefit of Intune is its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem. 

Onboarding of endpoint devices is not straightforward. The onboarding process was a little heavier than I thought it would be. That's the key improvement area. Obviously, the more control you have over the devices, the better it is. 

I have been using this solution for about three years. I use it on a weekly basis.

I didn't have any issues.

It is easy to scale. Getting used to using it instead of SCCM is an interesting shift because you don't manage policies the same way. There is a difference, so the scale of that is also interesting to address.

We probably have more than a hundred users.

Their tech support is decent. Sometimes, getting to your first contact can take a little bit longer, but after that, it's pretty good.

Previously, we were using Workspace ONE, but it was cost-prohibitive. We moved because of Microsoft's ecosystem. It was a business decision. The integration of the systems made it easier to stay with something like Intune.

It's not trivial, but it's okay. It's not too complicated. You do have to make sure you read your documentation, and you get an idea of what you're trying to do.

It's reasonable. They're not giving it away, but it's reasonable.

If you can get help from Microsoft or if you can use the fast-track process, it would definitely be worth your while.

I would rate it a seven out of 10.

My company requires control over the deployment process of new computers, and we have set up some profiles for specific applications to configure the access policies and define permissions for certain objects or documents. That's the most common use case.

It's not working perfectly, but Microsoft's Autopilot offers great visibility into automated deployment solutions.

The reports aren't complete, and it's not easy to build custom reports. For example, Windows Autopilot isn't working well in cases where the computers don't have a good internet connection. Then the option is not good enough. Microsoft could add an integration for managing Intel vPro chipsets. That would be nice.

I started working with Intune three years ago.

I wasn't involved in some of the biggest deployments, but I think the solution is capable of handling various complex scenarios and architectures. We'll probably increase usage, but we don't have any plans in the near future.

Microsoft support is very good. 

I previously used a different management solution called SOTI MobiControl, but I didn't switch because Microsoft Intune was better. I just changed companies. 

Implementing Microsoft Intune is easy. Total deployment takes about one to two weeks. You access the portal, buy the subscription, and configure everything. We have three administrators managing the solution.

I'm researching VMware Workspace ONE, a new VM solution. I think it's interesting, but I don't have enough experience to give specific feedback about that tool.

I rate Microsoft Intune nine out of 10. I think my company needs to define the use cases for each user type and organization type. For example, we have to consider if the client has policies configured with Active Directory and assess to identify which policies are required in the new management solution then configure only the settings that they require.

I work for a company as an administrator for Office 365, and I use Microsoft Intune in this capacity.

We implement this solution in conjunction with Microsoft IIS.

It is an enterprise mobility tool that is used for mobile application management and mobile device management.

This product allows us to restrict users who have access to the system, or to Office 365. We have to enroll the devices and give the users rights as directed by our management or security department.

The interface is friendly and well organized.

The security features should be improved.

I have been working with Microsoft Intune for two years.

We have more than 1,000 employees in the company, and there are about 500 users for this solution. Typically, it is used by managers and higher-ups.

We have not yet had to open a support case with Microsoft. To this point, we have solved any problems ourselves. As such, technical support has not been a concern.

We did not use another similar solution prior to Intune.

The initial setup is not complex.

The length of time required for deployment depends on the number of people in the environment. It also depends on how adopted people are with this type of technology. Six months is enough to complete a full deployment.

Some of our deployments are on-premises, whereas others are on the cloud.

Our in-house team was responsible for deployment. Based on our license, we have the option to engage with a partner but we haven't used them.

When it comes to security solutions, it is difficult to calculate the return on investment. This is because it is somewhat like car insurance, where car buyers are protected if something happens. If there are no incidents then you don't see it but you're still protected.

This cost is approximately $30 USD per user per month.

This product is included with our Microsoft 365 E3 subscription.

My advice for anybody who is looking into this product is to try it before they buy it. Microsoft offers a program that allows them to do this.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft Intune to secure our mobile access when you're assessing your data from your mobile. Additionally, we use the solution to limit people from transferring files to people that are not part of our domain, and secure company data from exposure.

The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types, we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager(MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company detail on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the  Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data.

We are always working with Microsoft on improvements. Improvement is not something that is static, we are always looking for a dynamic way of working with Microsoft. We have a support and enterprise agreement with Microsoft. Every quarter, we review the performance of all our solutions and then we ask for further improvement.

In the next release, I would like a feature to be able to properly lock down the device. For example, if an attacker or somebody steals the phone, you can be sure that the pin cannot be broken.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for approximately four years.

I have found Microsoft Intune to be stable.

Microsoft Intune is scalable.

The installation is not complex.

I would advise others to ensure that the technical people are well versatile and trained, especially the technical people that will implement Microsoft Intune.

I rate Microsoft Intune a nine out of ten.

The most important part is that they're fast in implementing and integrating with the Windows operating system, as well as how it integrates with other Office 365 products.

There is no option to do end-to-end macOS management. The second thing is that the actions or policies don't get applied immediately, so there should be much faster way of implementing the policies. If you wanted to implement some actions on the device, it doesn't happen very quickly. 

I'd also add more flexibility with the mobile device management part of it. At the moment, it's very limited compared to other MDM providers, so there should be more options.

I've been using it for four or five years.

Intune is quite stable.

Microsoft's technical support isn't very good. They're very slow in responding. You get a response, but the problem is if you have an issue with a feature or a critical bug, the response is very slow.

It is very easy to set up compared to other MDM products.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We are a system integrator who provides services to a variety of customers. I have provided this solution for a couple of my customers.

Microsoft Intune is primarily used to apply compliance requirements, install updates, and prevent users from sharing data because it is, part of the EMS, not just Intune.

For the price, the features included with Microsoft are appealing.

That is subjective because I haven't used anything other than Intune for MDM and MAM. We were fairly satisfied, I would say, but there are always a few things that our customers mention, such as this was simple.

Compatibility is another point raised by the customer. Microsoft is always a little behind when it comes to compatibility.  For example, Microsoft does not support Linux. or, any other platforms offered by other vendors.

The remote screen support and remote assistance were two features that we greatly missed in Intune. According to our customers who use Workspace ONE, it is available. For example, you can get remote assistance for an iPhone, which is somewhat reliant on a third-party solution, for Microsoft. We were not able to do that for testing purposes, we faced some challenges. We had to purchase an additional subscription from Teams Viewer.

Microsoft Intune lacks the ability to provide seamless remote assistance or remote control.

I have been familiar with Microsoft Intune for approximately three to four years.

Getting assistance from Microsoft is a difficult task, as we have noticed over the last few years that service is deteriorating. 

It's deteriorating in the sense that you don't get the proper resource the first time you call, message, or email. You should wait or inquire first. Normally, the person you are aligned with is usually someone who works on the front lines. On occasion, we may ask the support team to connect us with the appropriate individual or escalate the ticket.

This is my personal experience with Microsoft. I can't compare it to anything else.

Based on my conversation with my customer, they say that VMware Workspace ONE is easier to install.

While I have not tried to install VMware Workspace ONE myself, I don't find Microsoft Intune to be difficult to install.

No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering.

They bundle different things with EMS. 

EMS, which is a suite that includes Intune, along with some other products is still extremely competitive with other competitors. 

At the moment, I'm comparing it to VMware Workspace ONE.

I was comparing Microsoft Intune to VMware Workspace ONE, or EMS as it is more commonly known.

I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten, but when you add in the rest of the products, such as AIP and Azure Premium, I would say nine.

Generally, we use it with banking, finance, or government entities, usually medium to large customers. We also have smaller customers who are dealing with sensitive private data and therefore are interested in running Intune on top of their Office 365 licensing.

I like the fact that it's integrated with the rest of the Microsoft products, so customers can manage it from their Office 365 portal or Azure portal.

If you could replace SCCM completely with Intune, that would be fantastic so that you don't have to run SCCM with Intune as an extension.

They could also make it easier to use because there are some other products that may be easier to use in terms of the look and feel of the dashboard.

The stability is quite mature here in Australia.

The scalability is quite good.

The technical support is really good. First level support is just your normal desktop level, but the second or third level is much deeper. It's pretty good

Usually, if I log a call in the morning, I may get a call in the afternoon to sort it out through screen share. Sometimes, it's someone in Shanghai that takes the call, and I speak Chinese, and they speak Chinese, so I'm pretty happy with that.

If the customer is already operating on a cloud environment, then it's easy, but if a customer has a hybrid environment, then it can be complex.

If they've got people who are now working home that previously used to work in the office and they still want them to use their work laptops at home, it gets complex. You would need to start looking at registering the devices into Azure AD, which then leads to Azure AD premiums. Therefore, you would need to find out from Microsoft whether to add the device into Azure AD, to register it, that you would also need MDM or an Intune license added on top.

If you're ever going to buy an Office 365 environment, then pricing is reasonable given all that it does, but if you're not, then you might find the pricing expensive.

I would recommend that they check it out thoroughly because things are moving very quickly with Microsoft, and we get better support now, given Australia's a hero country of Microsoft.

A lot of companies are switching to hybrid environments because of COVID, and Microsoft Intune can be deployed in a hybrid environment.

However, because Microsoft Intune doesn't totally replace SCCM, I would rate it at seven on a scale from one to ten.

We use it for mobile device management. Android devices, iOS devices, Windows devices, computers, and so on are managed with the help of Microsoft Intune.

It's easy to manage and easy to configure.

We use it to completely manage the devices and access policies. We have app protection policies as well. So when it comes to any person who is outside my current organization, he won't be able to access anything if he's not authenticated. That's a really great feature because data security or data privacy will still be there.

I see room for improvement with respect to China and Android devices. If we get Intune for China for the Android devices, it would really be a win-win situation. The devices we are using to manage devices in China are partial MDM and not complete MDM.

China blocks Google and Google Play Store, which makes installation challenging. Microsoft Intune is a company software, which has to be installed to the app portal or Microsoft Software Center.

With barcoded scanners, it works really well in countries where Google is not blocked, but again, it's a challenge when we have to install Microsoft Intune where Google is blocked.

I've been working with Microsoft Intune for roughly three years.

It's deployed on the cloud itself, and we have 10,000 plus users.

Technical support is not great. If you open up a case, it may remain there for a long time. I believe that they may have a lot of customers and that's why we don't get the response immediately. Also, with these difficult times with COVID-19, they may be facing other challenges.

We used AirWatch and switched because we were facing a lot of issues with the product. Some things were really great, but some things were not.

Maintenance took a lot of time because it was on-premises. Every month, we had to do upgrades and patching of all the servers.

Too much information was provided regarding the initial setup, and it was too difficult to understand sometimes. You would have to read each and every article and try to understand exactly where and what you need to deploy. That's a bit challenging, but if you have seen the videos or attended Microsoft's training, then it's easier.

I attended the training and was able to configure and understand really well. However, if you give it to a layman, then it would really be a challenge.

Hardly any maintenance is required, so a few people will be able to handle the occasional issues and iOS upgrades.

Pricing depends on the features. Microsoft offers special packages if there are more than 10,000 users, and you may be able to get a reduced rate.

Microsoft Intune is a great product, and you should use it. You can do wonders with this particular product. So, on a scale from one to ten, I would rate it at eight.
