For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for two years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It's a very stable solution. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have found the solution to be scalable. 

We have about 20 clients using the product. Typically, the users would be managers or assistant administrators. 

How are customer service and support?

We've used technical support in the past. They are very fast and they know what they are talking about. We're happy with the level of support we get.

How was the initial setup?

The implementation process is simple. It's very straightforward. 

I'd rate the overall initial setup process at a four out of five. 

Deployment times vary. It depends on the product. Our clients, for example, we're deploying it to all of their mobile devices. We use architects and engineers for the deployment process. How many we need depends on the project. We typically need, let's say, one architect and then, depending on the size of the project, one or more engineers.

What about the implementation team?

We can integrate the product for our clients if they need us to.

What was our ROI?

I can't speak to seeing any specific ROI.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Customers do have to pay a licensing fee. Our clients pay a monthly subscription cost.

I cannot speak to the exact price as the licensing is complex. 

It's decent, however. I would rate it at a four out of five.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did look at other solutions. The one we did look at closely was more for larger organizations in the manufacturing industry, which wouldn't have fit with our needs. 

What other advice do I have?

We are Microsoft partners.

We are integrating the solution for our clients. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. With Intune, many companies may already have the product if they are also already using Microsoft.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten.

Complete product allowing quick access
Pros and Cons
  • "Users can make screenshots, and devices only need the minimal version of iOS."
  • "There can be delays in the deployment of new policies."

What is our primary use case?

We use the policies and the features to quickly access devices and make policies for users working in another country, but their device is from Brazil.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are that users can make screenshots, and devices only need the minimal version of iOS.

What needs improvement?

The major problem with this product is that there can be delays in the deployment of new policies.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with Microsoft Intune for almost two years.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate this solution as nine out of ten.

Very easy to use but lacks network security and other features
Pros and Cons
  • "Easy to use."
  • "Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."

What is our primary use case?

We are partners with Microsoft Intune as well as customers. 

What is most valuable?

The valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use. 

What needs improvement?

I find the solution quite old school with not many features. Managing devices is a little complex when they are not Microsoft projects. Additional features I'd like to see would include Wi-Fi and network security.

Cloud Administration Is the Most Valuable Option

What is our primary use case?

Using Mobile Application Management for delivery apps to our users on a secure way to Windows and Apple devices.

How has it helped my organization?

We are able to deliver applications fast to our mobile workloads so that users can make use of it instantly.

What is most valuable?

Cloud administration is the most valuable option. No need to install any Management applications.

What needs improvement?

Management of Linux devices from Microsoft Intune would be great. Then we can any device and not only Windows and Apple.

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

Streamlined device management with integration benefits, but reporting capabilities need enhancement
Pros and Cons
  • "One valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is the enrollment process, which is user-based, making it easier to manage compared to AirWatch."
  • "There is room for improvement in the reporting capabilities, specifically app reporting. It is challenging to report which apps are installed on which device."

What is our primary use case?

I use Microsoft Intune for mobile device management. My team is specifically responsible for managing mobile devices. Recently, we migrated all our devices to Intune from AirWatch. At my company, we are also utilizing Intune to manage desktops, laptops, and MVD devices.

What is most valuable?

One valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is the enrollment process, which is user-based, making it easier to manage compared to AirWatch. Additionally, the integration with Azure and other Office 365 apps is seamless. Another beneficial aspect is that Intune brings all endpoint and security management tools into one place, allowing us to streamline management and have a single point of view. Mobile users have found the enrollment process seamless, and the Company Portal displays required apps effectively.

What needs improvement?

There is room for improvement in the reporting capabilities, specifically app reporting. It is challenging to report which apps are installed on which device. Also, there needs to be more granularity in pulling up stale records. I cannot control mobile devices separately or create separate policies, which Microsoft mentioned they are working on.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft Intune for a little more than two years now.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

The migration to Intune took some time to show benefits, as we started about two years ago and are finishing the migration now. Initially, there were challenges due to differences between Workspace ONE and Intune, requiring adjustments to internal policies.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

From an end-user perspective, mobile users have had a good experience, with enrollment being seamless. However, there are concerns with inconsistent device syncing, as there are times when synchronization with Intune takes longer than expected.

How are customer service and support?

My experience with customer service is that once I reach higher-level support, the service is good. However, intermediate levels of support haven't been very successful, so I often escalate to get higher-level engineers involved.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I used AirWatch, which is now called Workspace ONE from VMware, before switching to Microsoft Intune due to better pricing with Intune, as it is included with an E5 license.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup of Microsoft Intune was made easier as I had previously been using it on the desktop side. However, there were challenges due to differences with Workspace ONE, but after addressing those, everything went smoothly.

What about the implementation team?

My entire team was involved in the implementation, with at least three people working on it.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing was much better with Microsoft Intune, as it is included with an E5 license, requiring no additional hardware purchases, which was a deciding factor for us to switch.

What other advice do I have?

Overall, I would rate the solution a seven on a scale of one to 10. The more mature features of Workspace ONE mean it offers better functionality in some cases, but Microsoft Intune’s pricing and integration with our existing licenses make it more appealing financially.

I could not discuss all the areas that need improvement due to time constraints. However, there are definitely challenges that could be addressed.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft Intune for around five to six years.

How are customer service and support?

What was our ROI?

I rate the return on investment for Microsoft Intune as seven out of ten.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
