Microsoft Intune Reviews

We use it to a small extent for approximately 1,100 devices. The biggest portion of it is used in the Aviation department, which is one of our departments. They have invested heavily in some customized software that they've developed in-house. It is put on the devices, and the devices are primarily used by field staff. It's basically a mixture of work order assignment and work order management, as well as record keeping. For example, I could have a technician who is assigned to go and do a preventive maintenance inspection on an HVAC component in one of the terminals. That request or work order is submitted to his device. When he gets there, he scans barcodes for the room he is in and for the piece of equipment that he is working on. So, they track their actual work order, work order status, workloads, and equipment life cycle, and that's all done through Intune.

It helps us in securing devices. It has eliminated a lot of paperwork. It has simplified record-keeping and maintenance of equipment, life cycle management, staff workload, work hours, et cetera. That's the biggest impact on us, and that's also where most of the devices are used.

Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly.

It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution.

It has been years since it was implemented.

Its stability has been fine. We've had no issues at all.

I don't see any issues with it. We currently have only about 1,100 users and licenses for the Intune product. The largest portion or over 50% of usage is by our Aviation department for tracking and managing their work order, workload,  equipment life cycle, etc. Other users are scattered in small numbers throughout a number of departments. 

Our Parts department also uses it. One thing that's a little bit unique is that they also have these assigned to temporary workers. So, we provide the licenses for a number of temporary workers for the summer or for the winter, and then we take them back and reassign them to somebody else. 

The other departments mostly use it for educational or small use cases where they think this will be a good fit, and it is the product that is available to them. I've heard nothing bad about it, and I have no problem at all with Intune.

In terms of future growth, we're currently looking at another product, but that doesn't mean we're going to go with that other product. We're working with a vendor on another solution, and that vendor also has a mobile device management product, but we're not yet ready to go there.

I've no direct input on it. Right now, we're on unified support, but we've always had their premier support. If we ever have a problem with any of our Microsoft products, including Intune, we do have a way to reach out and get additional assistance.

I'm not aware of any other solution being used. I know there were one or possibly two failed mobile device management project implementations. I was not a member of the department then, so I don't know the details. I only know that both of the deployments failed. In other words, either the vendor promises were not met, or we found a function that was supposed to exist but did not exist. 

It was pretty straightforward. It was not a very long, complex, and involved process. It was fairly easy to set up.

It was done in-house. For its maintenance, we have no one dedicated to it. Our client computing side takes care of that.

I've never tried to quantify an ROI for the program. We have just a small number of devices. At some point, we will look at implementing large-scale mobile device management, and that'll be a different case where we may look at Intune, Workspace ONE, or another product.

It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved.

It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs.

It meets the basic security needs and management needs for most organizations. It allows you to monitor the security of devices and manage those devices if they're organization-owned. It is fairly easy and straightforward to manage. It is not difficult. Some of the other solutions are a little bit more difficult.

I would rate it an eight out of 10. It meets all the basic needs that most organizations will have for device management and device security. I am not sure if it can provide the required level of security for different business scenarios that require additional security, which means you'd have to run two systems in tandem.

We primarily use the solution for device management. 

There are a lot of use cases, however, the base is the mobile security for our corporate devices and deployment of applications. We are a worldwide organization and in many countries. There are also country-based use cases, or areas that incorporate these use cases for some specific business units such as healthcare and similar SAP solutions. We have a lot of small areas where we use this, however, the main driver is improving the security of the devices and providing some automation configuration for the users including VPN solutions and corporate WiFi connections, applications, et cetera.

If I compared this product to XenMobile, except the conditional access, which was also partially possible to integrate with Citrix XenMobile, then there is not much difference between the two. The functionality s very good. However, the main way this has improved our organization is that there is support for conditional access and native integration with Office 365 services which we migrated to. 

The integration with conditional access is great. That's maybe the most important aspect of the solution.

The pricing is very good.

We already use a lot of Microsoft products in our company, and therefore, it made sense to also use this product.

For the most part, the solution is stable.

As a cloud solution, the scalability on offer is great.

There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations.

We would like, for example, integrated remote control or a remote session tool or something like this. You must have TeamViewer and the integration with this is limited and it's extra money. Nothing is built-in. Some functionalities are really limited to fully managed devices and so on. It took a long time for them to integrate the big ECS infrastructure into the corporate devices. This is now done, however, it took a longer time than expected.

Technical support could be h=better.

We've used the solution for the last three years, starting with the integration. 

The solution is pretty stable. As it is in the cloud, there are not many issues in terms of a service outage or things like this. Maybe when there are new patches integrated every month, which sometimes happens, some functionality may be influenced or affected. It's more or less a small issue, however, issues are possible. I don't recall a situation where downtime happened or users were really affected, however. It's just an occasional issue we may have with a patch that we would need to address.

The solution is quite scalable. As a cloud product, there are no issues surrounding expanding if you need to. 

We have maybe 27,000 people using the solution at this time. There is a plan to have all mobile users in this solution, so we are talking about 70,000 users at some point. However, it's a question also of the licenses, as you have to have a license for that product.

Technical support is hit and miss. Sometimes it's really good and other times it's not so great.

We used Citrix Endpoint Management in the past. We used it about two years ago. It was a good product. They are comparable, really, Citrix and Microsoft. 

I was not involved from the beginning of the project. However, from what I remember, we did the implementation directly with the help of a support engineer from Microsoft. Their involvement ensured the setup was not such a big deal.

Deployment took maybe one year in our environment, however, this was because we had a lot of time to tune it up and to test it, to have a pilot for a few months and then add more people to the pilot before we started migrations for mobile, for example. We took our time to really prepare the product as best as possible and then deployed it to the users and migrated them over.

We have two levels of people at a global level that handle deployment and maintenance. They mostly focus on improving the environment, not troubleshooting WiFi issues. 

We had direct assistance from Microsoft. Their assistance made the process seamless and it was a positive experience.

The solution offers reasonable pricing.

It's my understanding that we have the licensing set up for monthly payments, however, it's not an aspect of the solution I'm directly involved with. I don't know enough about it.

That said, I am aware that, in order to have mobile involved, you need the EMS solution or EMS license, and that's an extra cost to the standard Office license.

We're just a customer and an end-user.

As we are on the cloud version of the solution, we are more or less on the latest version of the solution.

The product was chosen for political reasons, as the company is mostly using Microsoft products and also the prices were maybe better than other options. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. If they are already using Microsoft or 365, it's a good product for companies sot have. 

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

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. 

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.  

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 use Microsoft Intune for our internal security policy and team management. 

The synchronization of Intune with other Microsoft solutions is a valuable feature.

The reporting and cost have room for improvement.

I have been using the solution for two years.

Microsoft Intune is stable.

The technical support is good.

Positive

The initial setup is straightforward. We used our own certified people for the deployment.

The implementation was completed in-house and we implement it for our clients.

Microsoft Intune is a bit expensive compared to the competition.

I give the solution a seven out of ten.

Most of our clients prefer Microsoft Intune over other solutions because of the seamless integration with other Microsoft solutions which most organizations use.

The solution is easy to maintain. 

I suggest using the demo of Microsoft Intune before making a decision.

We use Microsoft Intune to deploy the software to Windows and iOS for the campus and to isolate any intrusion.

We can centrally control the software and the settings of the devices on the multi-platform using Microsoft Intune.

The most valuable feature of the solution is compliance. We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android.

Microsoft Intune has a latency response time issue. The latency has room for improvement.

iOS devices have certain features that are not supported, which is not beneficial for end customers in terms of open deployment and device control.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for around three years.

Microsoft Intune remains stable if it is deployed correctly.

Microsoft Intune is scalable.

The initial setup is not complex. We started by setting up the environment on the cloud, then configured the devices and profiles. However, certain aspects of the deployment required the assistance of engineers.

The implementation was completed in-house.

I give the solution a seven out of ten.

We used Microsoft Intune because it is the only solution that can also support iOS.

In cases where a device encounters compatibility issues or technical problems preventing it from receiving the MDM profile, maintenance may be required. The maintenance is acceptable.

I recommend the solution to others.
