Microsoft Intune Reviews

The solution affords data protection on mobile device management. It also provides functionality for data protection on one's laptop and desktop. But, this requires a different ecosystem for the provision of full data protection. A person can utilize this if he has a cloud proxy and something in his infrastructure.

MM and MDM are two useful features that we employ.

It would be great to see on-premises mailboxes and for the solution to have geofencing capabilities.

As it is a next generation product, the patching abilities should also be addressed. 

We have been using Microsoft Intune for the last three or four years.

As the solution is a software as a service, the scalability is unlimited. 

We are satisfied with the partner and community support of Microsoft.

The initial setup can be a bit complex, although this ultimately depends on the requirements of the business. If a proper framework is established then the solution is simpler to deploy. 

Moreover, the company culture impacts the complexity of the deployment. There are times when we must provide guides or that user training is required. When deploying in the developer community, in which the participants are tech savvy, the process will be easier. Conversely, when doing so in a non-developer community, this process can take awhile. 

The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another. This is because it depends on whether or not the customer will opt for an open license enterprise agreement. 

The solution is solely cloud-based.

We work with medium and enterprise businesses.

I rate Microsoft Intune as an eight out of ten.

It is used for mobile device management. We use it for mobile phones and even PCs. We have its latest version.

Its protection policies are most valuable. It protects mobile devices as well as individual apps.

It is pretty scalable, and its documentation is also pretty good. It is also pretty straightforward to deploy.

They need to add more group policies. I know that they are already working on it, but this is something that I would like them to do quicker. Intune currently does not have many group policies that you can deploy. It is quite limited in terms of group policies. For example, if I want to disable the password manager on my browser, I can get support in Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Edge, but not with Firefox. It would be ideal if they can add some of these things.

Its reporting, which is very limited at the moment, also needs improvement. I can see basic information, such as how many devices are enrolled, but I can't get customized information. It will be great if they can add report customization.

Its stability needs to be improved. Sometimes, when you register a device in Intune, it doesn't show up instantly on the engine portal on the admin side. There are sync issues between the admin side and the user side.

They need to provide better support for complicated issues. They also have a long turnaround time for resolution in regards to overall escalation.

I have been using this solution for three years.

It needs improvement in terms of stability. Sometimes, when you register a device in Intune, it doesn't show up instantly on the engine portal on the admin side. There are sync issues between the admin side and the user side. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it works instantly, and sometimes, something goes wrong, and you get stuck there. It is not consistent.

It is pretty scalable because you can also integrate on-premises stuff. You can also integrate it with SCCM.

When I contact technical support, I normally find the junior engineers to be not that good. They're just good with the basic issues. If there is something complex, you have to escalate the case, but they take a lot of time to escalate it. After the escalation, they are able to fix the issue, but the overall time they take to solve an issue is too much. Sometimes, the solution is very simple, but the process of escalation takes too long.

I find it pretty straightforward, which could be because I have been working on this solution for three years. It mostly involves clicking the Next button. It will also depend on your requirements and policies, but it is generally straightforward.

Microsoft documentation is a very good place to start. They have done a great job for beginners who want to deploy Intune in their organization. They have done a good job in describing different scenarios in the documentation. I would advise starting with the documentation and doing some certification as well.

I would rate Microsoft Intune a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for the deployment of the Windows 10 laptops and devices, and mobile device management of Android and iOS devices.

The most valuable features are the ones that make sure that the deployment is of a standard operating system and the Zero Touch deployment, which is very useful. This allows users to have an out of box experience.

There is improvement needed in integrating with the installed Office solutions versions, such as Office 2019. The Office 365 integrates fine. 

While using the solution, you have to test and validate a lot. This is not really a solution issue but more of a configuration issue but still worthy of noting.

We have experienced an issue while deploying a Windows 10 machine, once you get the user profile applications installed, it does not always integrate well with third-party multi-factor authentication solutions. This is something that can be improved in the future.

I have been using the solution for the last year.

The solution is reliable. However, it depends on the stability of your network and the internet connectivity.

I have not had the chance to fully test the scalability because, although it is an enterprise solution, the organizations that I am working for tend not to have a large-scale, full-blown deployment at once of all the Windows 10 or mobile devices.

We plan to increase the usage of the solution. We have a number of my customers that are just starting with the solution, one is only doing the Windows 10 devices, the other one is only doing mobile device management. We have some clients that have it installed but it is not being fully used yet.

The installation was straightforward.

There is a license needed for this solution and it is either included in one of the enterprise license agreements. Microsoft licensing is a mathematical institute, it could be quite complex. We tend to ask specialized organizations to research what the most profitable way it would be for us to use licenses in the organizations.

We did evaluate other solutions before we selected this one.

Those who want to implement this solution have to ask themselves a few questions.
How do you introduce an additional security layer within my organization? If it is concerning the devices that you are using? Think big, act small, start with the smaller issues that you are having and make sure that the bigger picture stays within reach. Start with either mobile device management, or either Windows 10 deployment on laptops and PCs.

Make sure that you also have security governance because otherwise, you can introduce millions and millions of features and options but it still has to be a good user experience for the people that have to use these devices. If you fully block and fully restrict the devices, then it will not be a good user experience for the people that are actually in the field. There are actions that have to be done due to security and also by means of user experience optimization and security.

I rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.

It has a useful device management feature.

I guess they have been working a lot on the current features, but the active directory core features like group policy management are still missing. It would be better if I could integrate it with my core group policy.

I would like to have a group policy in my current environment, which has strict control, but those things are still missing. Although it has maximum compliance and security, it's not available on-premise.

Integration with other products could also be better. If I want to integrate with AirWatch, I have to do a lot of manual stuff and a lot of middleware changes. Technical support could also be better.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for the last three years.

The support is not very good. It's very poor. At least at implementation time, Microsoft should support or should have a team who can support instantly or rapidly. But the process remains the same for the support, and I have to call, and I have to wait for four to eight hours, especially if I'm migrating from AirWatch, Mobility, or some other applications.

AirWatch is a bit complicated, especially during a disaster or when something happens. Their technical support is very poor, and Intune is far better.

The initial setup is easy. We can complete the Intune implementation in one hour, but for the base configuration, we require Microsoft support. Because at the end of the day, it's a cloud product, and we don't have many resources on it.

The price is reasonable, but they should lower it a bit to make it more competitive. It's cheaper than AirWatch and other products, but I still feel like Microsoft can make a base version or with Exchange online or a la carte only Intune version which will be useful. A customer who doesn't want to go full-fledged E3 or E5 can take out or consume an Intune solution only for their purpose, and we want to target that customer.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Microsoft Intune a nine.

It is mainly used as an endpoint management tool for MDM. We are using it for Windows devices, iPads, and Macintosh devices. 

We have its latest version. It is mostly cloud-based or SAS only, and we have a couple of clients that use hybrid.

The Autopilot feature is fantastic. It is a Microsoft product, so it deals best with Microsoft operating systems, but it can integrate with iOS, Mac OS, Linux, and Android.

It just doesn't handle software updates well at all by itself. You need to be a scripting wizard to make those happen properly, or you use third-party tools. The Windows feature updates are very difficult to implement.

I would like to see a proprietary built-in remote control tool. I know that they have Team Viewer integrated, but it is not seamless. It would be nice if they had a seamless remote desktop capability directly from the Intune console.

I have been using this solution for four years.

Outside of a couple of little hiccups, it is very stable.

It is scalable. 

Overall, they're pretty decent. Their response time is sometimes a little slow, but they do get back to you and offer assistance.

I have used Workspace ONE. Workspace ONE works really well for iPads and Androids. I haven't used it recently for Windows. They had just started to sort of delve into that arena, but I can't really say how well it works because I haven't really tried it on Windows 10. Workspace ONE is far superior when it comes to iOS and Android OS. If I remember correctly, they're comparable in price.

It is straightforward for somebody who has got experience. It is certainly not something that somebody who came off the street can do easily. There is a lot of documentation, but the documentation varies widely, and it can be difficult to set up. Microsoft does offer some good support and assistance with it. If you have a user base of 300 devices or more, they'll actually walk you through the entire setup and assist you.

Currently, I am solely providing support for eight different clients who probably have over a thousand devices in total. So, the maintenance isn't difficult.

Most of our clients come to us with licensing already in place. On average, it costs $6 per device per month to add Intune to an Office 365 subscription, but I am not sure.

If your clients have Office 365, and they're not using Intune, they should be.

I would rate Microsoft Intune a six out of ten.

The solution is used for managing all devices centrally and overall reducing administrative operations.

The solution is easy to use, simple to understand for those new to using it, and combined with the other Microsoft products it makes for an overall good package.

In an upcoming release, I would like to see some kind of analytics report.

I have been using the solution for approximately six years.

The solution is stable.

I have found the solution to be scalable.

This solution can help you reduce operational tasks which will save you money.

I recommend this solution to others. We have a lot of customers that enjoy the solution.

I rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.

We primarily implement the solution for our customers. It's mainly used by our clients for device management.

The product helps organizations have a model or place to allow users to access the corporate resources from any device that the user wants and in a highly secured way. That way, the data can be managed by the organization, whether the device is managed or not.

The mobile application management, MAM, is the most useful aspect of the solution.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

The solution is quite stable.

The product scales very, very well.

We've found the technical support to be excellent.

The legacy system management could use some improvement.

Reporting could be improved. It needs to be more expensive and robust.

Technical support could be a bit quicker to respond.

We've used the solution for two years. It hasn't been an extremely long amount of time.

The product is stable. Microsoft, obviously, is a stable platform. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable in terms of performance.

The solution is highly scalable. A company can expand the solution if it would like to.

I'd rate the solution at a four out of five. It's mostly quite good. They are helpful and knowledgeable. However, The response times could improve. In general, we are mostly satisfied with the level of service provided to us.

The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult. It is easy. The implementation is straightforward.

The deployment process is pretty quick. It takes a couple of days, and not quite a week.

We can implement the solution for our clients.

Being a deployment or being a technical resource, I'm not that good in the pricing. It's not an aspect o the solution I directly deal with. I can't speak to the specific costs to a company.

We are a global distributor for Microsoft. I am a consultant. I do deployment for my customers.

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

I would advise new users and organizations that they should follow the industry standard practices of configuring the policies and they can always highly rely on Microsoft for other security products as well.

It is very easy to use. It has a very easy interface.

They can improve their MAM policies a little bit more and make them more granular. They should include more granular group policies. They are there, but they need to be more granular.

Its stability should also be improved. It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants.

I have been using this solution for around five years. I am using its latest version.

It is not very stable. Sometimes, it shows some inconsistencies across tenants. There is still room for improvement there.

It is scalable.

I have interacted with them. Their first response was fast, but after that, they were not that helpful. I would rate them a three out of five.

Microsoft Intune is the only solution I have used.

It is pretty straightforward. There is good documentation for that.

I would recommend this product. I would also recommend using the cloud-only solution if possible. Don't go for on-premises because it is not very consistent. Just stay on the cloud.

I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.

The solution can be primarily used for mobile management. We're using the solution to enroll Windows 10 devices.

The policies on the solution are very good.

The process of enrolling devices is a useful aspect for us.

The features that allow us to control the devices are helpful.

The initial setup is not hard at all.

Technical support, in general, has been quite helpful.

We've found the configuration capabilities to be quite good.

So far, the solution is fast and has an intuitive interface.

The feature that allows us to import the business application from the configuration manager to Intune is not very good at this time. They should be getting better in the application input on that platforms. It's an aspect that could use some improvement.

Other than that, I can't recall the solution lacking any features. Overall, we've been happy with the offering.

I've used the solution in the last 12 months. We've been using it for one year, more or less. It hasn't been a very long time just yet.

The stability of the product is quite good. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. The performance is reliable. 

We do plan to increase the use of the solution over the coming year. Our intention is to scale a bit. We don't plan on switching products anytime soon.

I've dealt with technical support in the past, and I'm quite satisfied with them. They are knowledgeable and responsive. I have no complaints.

We did not previously use a different solution. We've only ever used Microsoft Intune for these current use cases.

We found the initial setup to be quite easy and straightforward. It's not complex. If a company wants to set it up themselves, they shouldn't have an issue doing so.

The deployment didn't take very long. It was a pretty quick process overall. 

I can't speak to any aspect of the pricing. It's not something I handle. I don't deal with licensing and therefore don't know if it is expensive or reasonably priced.

I've been testing the solution. I'm a customer and an end-user. My company does not have a business relationship with Microsoft.

In general, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've been happy with the capabilities overall.

We are partners with Microsoft Intune as well as customers. 

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

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.
