A cost-effective solution that ensures compliance and security
Pros and Cons
  • "I have seen a return on investment with Microsoft Intune, as it has saved me resources; previously, I managed my infrastructure with a team of around six to seven members, but after transitioning to the Microsoft Intune hybrid model, I am able to manage it with just one resource, allowing me to cut costs significantly, around 50-60 lakhs."
  • "Unfortunately, Intune’s management extension does not provide the same level of logging, and I lack the visibility in Intune that I had with SCCM."

What is our primary use case?

I'm responsible for the end-user computing. I'm responsible for packaging the applications, deploying it to all the end-user devices in my organization via Intune, and also creating the monthly patching through update rings and deploying all the patches to the workstations across the entire organization. 

We have also created an Autopilot profile, deployment profile, and enrollment status page to ensure all the new devices are compliant with company policies and compliance policies as per our organization rules.

How has it helped my organization?

It significantly reduces the need for manual human efforts and is very cost-effective. This makes it particularly advantageous for large enterprises, especially in the financial sector, as it is secure and reliable. Microsoft Intune helps protect against vulnerabilities and third-party attacks by providing timely patches and update rings, ensuring compliance with security standards.

What is most valuable?

The best features of Microsoft Intune are creating the package in very simple terms using the Content Preparation Master tool, which I find easy. I'm able to pull reports and get device status very easily, which has been very helpful. 

Regarding the compliance policy settings and configuration profile, I can check on each device to see where it failed. However, I struggle to troubleshoot the exact root cause of these failures, which I want to highlight. 

What needs improvement?

I have observed that while I can generate reports, I am unable to address the log files from end-user devices effectively. For instance, when an application is deployed on a user device and it shows an error indicating failure, I can't pinpoint the exact reason for the failure. In Microsoft SCCM, we can access log files in the "C:\Windows\SCCM\Logs" directory. From there, we can check the "AppEnforce.log" and "AppIntentEval.log" files. Unfortunately, Intune’s management extension does not provide the same level of logging. When I try to review the "Windows IMEI" logs, I cannot determine where the application is failing.

Moreover, I lack the visibility in Intune that I had with SCCM. Looking ahead, with Windows 11 on the horizon and Windows 10 support ending on October 14th, I am currently involved in a Windows land migration project. I plan to image the new devices using Autopilot. Once the hardware hash is added to Intune, we are able to assign the group tag, which allows for the deployment profile to be assigned, enabling both device enrollment and user enrollment. This approach helps minimize the overall experience issues.

Maintaining Microsoft Intune is not very complex; we generally export the entire list of applications we've created once every three months, and we make sure to update or remove any old policies that are no longer required in our organization. However, this is a time-consuming and tedious process. I suggest that Microsoft include an option, similar to SCCM, for every three months or 90 days to automatically remove devices from the console. This suggestion could apply not just to device management but also to application management and compliance policies or configurations.

Because Microsoft Intune is cloud-based, we would like to gain a better technical understanding of how Microsoft develops the tool from the backend. For instance, with SCCM, we learned how it operates—creating distribution points, performing system discovery, and identifying machines present in Active Directory. We understood how to create boundaries and assign boundary groups for distribution points to access content. However, in Intune, we struggle to determine where content is stored. For example, when I create a .IntuneWin file or a package application, I want to know where it is stored and how to retrieve the raw files or the source media if needed. These are some of the challenges we face with Microsoft Intune. We lack a lot of visibility in Microsoft Intune.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft Intune for the past eight years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I find that Microsoft Intune is stable, but it would be beneficial for support infrastructure engineers to receive presentations about new features and how earlier issues were overcome, as this information is not readily available to them, which affects the perceived stability. On a scale of one to ten, I would rate it a seven out of ten for stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

For scalability, I would rate it a six out of ten.

Currently, I'm managing around 6,000 devices at Alter Domus, and once I deploy an application, profile, or policy, it takes around two weeks to achieve 92% to 94% compliance. We have around 13,000 users.

How are customer service and support?

For technical support, I previously received direct calls from escalation engineers at Microsoft, and I found that very supportive. However, now Microsoft has changed their process, and L1 and L2 tickets are often assigned to third-party companies where the personnel may lack the necessary knowledge, resulting in lengthy resolution processes. In my organization, management suggests we handle issues ourselves until a solution is provided.

When an escalation support engineer at the L3 or L4 level assists me, I would give them a rating of 10 out of 10. However, for L1 or L2 engineers from third parties, I would rate them a four out of ten due to the lengthy resolution times. 

Overall, I would rate vendor support very poorly, at three or four out of ten. However, when I talk to engineers directly working for Microsoft, especially those familiar with SCCM and Intune, I would give them a 10 out of 10 due to their proper understanding of the tools.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

What was our ROI?

I have seen a return on investment with Microsoft Intune, as it has saved me resources. Previously, I managed my infrastructure with a team of around six to seven members, but after transitioning to the Microsoft Intune hybrid model, I am able to manage it with just one resource, allowing me to cut costs significantly, around 50-60 lakhs.

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

It's expensive.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

When comparing Microsoft Intune with other solutions or vendors, I find that it is a very fast and safe procedure technology. While I believe it is good technology, there are minor issues that could be resolved by Microsoft. We want transparency for engineers to understand where issues arise so we can troubleshoot effectively.

I don’t want to constantly disturb the service support engineers by raising cases. As technical engineers, we want to solve problems on our own. We aim to become subject matter experts for Microsoft Intune within our organization.

What other advice do I have?

In my organization, we use Copilot whenever we don't understand a particular feature, and it provides the answers we need. For example, when I need to create a BitLocker encryption policy, Copilot assists me and guides me through the steps and necessary settings required before creating that policy.

We have a certificate infrastructure, and we generally embed machine certificates and handle the PKI certificates via SCCM. 

The cloud distribution point that we have already configured in SCCM is particularly useful when an end-user device is not connected to the VPN (Virtual Private Network). During this time, the cloud distribution point allows content, such as application patches, to be distributed and successfully installed on end-user devices. This is why we have been able to achieve good compliance.

I would recommend Microsoft Intune to other users because it offers many benefits. Overall, I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.

What is our primary use case?

The main use case for Microsoft Intune is device management and security policy enforcement. We use it to manage company laptops and mobile devices, deploy security policies, and ensure devices remain compliant with organizational requirements.

A day-to-day example would be onboarding a new employee. Instead of manually configuring the device, we can enroll it in Microsoft Intune to automatically deploy required applications, apply security policies, and configure settings. This saves time and provides a consistent and secure setup process.

What is most valuable?

Microsoft Intune has helped us simplify device management and improve security. Having everything managed from a central platform has saved time and made administration much easier.

The standout feature for me is centralized device management. It makes it easy to manage devices, deploy applications, enforce security policies, and monitor compliance from a single console. It saves a lot of time.

Another thing I appreciate is the automation and integration with the Microsoft ecosystem. Since we already use Microsoft 365 services, Microsoft Intune works well with tools like Azure AD, Defender, and Conditional Access. This makes it easier to automate device onboarding, policy deployment, and compliance checks. It reduces manual work and helps maintain a consistent security posture across managed devices.

The biggest benefits have been easier device management, improved security, and reduced manual work. Device onboarding is faster, and policies are applied consistently. Managing remote users has become much more efficient.

We do not track exact metrics, but we have definitely seen improvement. Before Microsoft Intune, setting up a new device involved a lot of manual configuration. Now, most of the applications, policies, and settings are deployed automatically. This has reduced setup time and helped minimize configuration errors. It has also made ongoing device management much easier for the IT team.

The integration with the Microsoft ecosystem is one of its strengths, and we have been satisfied with the overall experience.

What needs improvement?

One of the areas for improvement would be troubleshooting and reporting. Sometimes, it takes time to identify the exact cause of a policy or compliance issue. More detailed diagnostics and customizable reporting would make the platform even better.

The platform works well overall, but I think the user interface could be a little more intuitive in some areas, especially when troubleshooting compliance or policy-related issues. I would also like to see more detailed reporting and diagnostics to make problem resolution faster.

Unified endpoint security has improved device management and protects data across platforms
Pros and Cons
  • "The most reliable feature is the integration with Microsoft XDR, which grants administrators and solution architects like me the ability to bring value to a business."
  • "Those are the two features that did not impress me much, and currently with other customers I am improving them with Microsoft directly."

What is our primary use case?

I work with Microsoft Intune on 365 Modern Workplace technologies. I have dealt with different Microsoft Intune-related projects because they fall within the security and compliance scope. I migrate customers to Microsoft Intune for endpoint management. I either onboard customers directly to Microsoft Intune or, as in my current employer experience, I detached their endpoints from SCCM and then fully managed those endpoints using Microsoft Intune.

The main purpose of Microsoft Intune is to fully manage corporate or enterprise devices, mainly Windows. From time to time, I make decisions and take action for macOS. I also commonly secure data for non-managed devices, very likely smartphones, using policies to secure data such as Outlook, emails, and Teams.

How has it helped my organization?

There is not much measurable improvement in fairness to Microsoft Intune because I typically try to set KPIs, but eventually I cannot. Customers are not focused on that part for KPIs because it would not be easy for them to define clear KPIs such as the number of incidents to be minimized across a semester, quarter, or yearly basis. Another example would be to define an SLA whereby endpoint disruption must be minimized in terms of recognition and response. I always try to establish KPIs, but customers often do not have that mindset.

What is most valuable?

The integration with different kinds of endpoints is the most valuable feature in Microsoft Intune: Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android, and anything else. The most reliable feature is the integration with Microsoft XDR, which grants administrators and solution architects like me the ability to bring value to a business. Microsoft Intune integrates deeply with Windows and with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, which is the antivirus. This integration grants comprehensive security from an endpoint perspective.

What needs improvement?

I am part of the private preview with Microsoft, which is a program for very few customers working with Microsoft to improve features in the future. I am currently working with Microsoft to improve Microsoft Intune RBAC, which is role-based access control because I came across a limitation. I worked with Microsoft for approximately four months, and I and other few customers participated in that program to give our inputs to improve that feature. They have made improvements, and I think later this year Microsoft will release the new RBAC feature in general availability, either in two or three months.

The other area needing improvement is Autopilot because there are currently other limitations. Microsoft opened another private preview for Autopilot and we have been working on that as of middle of February. Those are the two features that did not impress me much, and currently with other customers I am improving them with Microsoft directly.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used the solution since 2020.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Regarding the overall stability of Microsoft Intune, I would rate it a seven. Generally speaking regarding scalability, it works quite well. The problems I came across were the ones I already mentioned and led me to join the Microsoft preview program. Generally speaking, I am quite happy with the product, and I would have said even eight, but generally speaking it works quite well.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The problems I came across were the ones I already mentioned and led me to join the Microsoft preview program. Generally speaking, it works quite well.

How are customer service and support?

Regarding customer service and technical support, I would rate it a seven on a scale from one to ten. I would say it is fair enough.

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

Prior to adopting Microsoft Intune, I was focused on Microsoft solutions, so I try to be consistent with Microsoft Intune. I saw a demo from another vendor, but I have not really worked with other solutions or other vendors.

How was the initial setup?

In relation to the deployment regarding Microsoft Intune, the first difficulty I had to cope with was the decision to make between continuing with co-management or stopping and going to a full Microsoft Intune management. The difficulty there was co-management because there are some decisions to make and also some technical constraints to address. When I decided to go with full Microsoft Intune management, it meant I had to unlink those devices from SCCM and then uninstall the SCCM agent on endpoints and also fix some gaps. There were some difficulties in fully onboarding and unlinking those devices from SCCM and then fully onboarding those devices to Microsoft Intune. Those are the most difficulties I came across in my current Microsoft Intune project experience.

What about the implementation team?

Regarding where I bought Microsoft Intune, that is a difficult question to answer because it depends. When talking about Azure, you are talking about a tenant. When you open a tenant, you open it by yourself. When you need licenses, you may either have a direct relationship with Microsoft, as is the case where I am currently working, or if I used to work as a consultant, I provided help for customers to open a tenant or to buy licenses.

What was our ROI?

Regarding ROI with Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Intune provides value for customers and they are happy. There is definitely a return on investment for customers when they adopt Microsoft Intune. For larger companies that can manage a large fleet of endpoints, there is definitely a return of investment.

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

Regarding the quotation for customers, which is something I did in the past, generally speaking from a sysadmin perspective, the pricing for what they offer is in line.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I will answer this question broadly because I work with 365 modern workplace projects and also Azure. I will not answer this question just from a Microsoft Intune perspective. Generally speaking, I try to leverage and maximize the value of a customer's license baseline. For instance, a customer has purchased E5 licenses, which grants the customer very different parts of the 365 ecosystem. There is a lot for a customer to improve. Every time I try to ask questions in relation to what they have now regarding awareness and understand what might be the gap from what they currently have. I am not talking about just in relation to licenses but their awareness for data protection, endpoint management, endpoint protection, identity protection, VM protection, and some workloads protections in the cloud.

What other advice do I have?

There are constraints due to the technology of Microsoft Intune, but this applies to almost any technology. I have not had the chance to integrate with any third-party software. I was able to comply fully with Microsoft Intune solely.

The integration with different kinds of endpoints is the most valuable feature in Microsoft Intune: Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android, and anything else. The most reliable feature is the integration with Microsoft XDR, which grants administrators and solution architects like me the ability to bring value to a business. Microsoft Intune integrates deeply with Windows and with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, which is the antivirus. This integration grants comprehensive security from an endpoint perspective.

Regarding missing features in Microsoft Intune, I was part of the private preview with Microsoft, which is a program for very few customers working with Microsoft to improve features in the future. I am currently working with Microsoft to improve Microsoft Intune RBAC, which is role-based access control because I came across a limitation. I worked with Microsoft for approximately four months, and I and other few customers participated in that program to give our inputs to improve that feature. They have made improvements, and I think later this year Microsoft will release the new RBAC feature in general availability, either in two or three months. The other area needing improvement is Autopilot because there are currently other limitations. Microsoft opened another private preview for Autopilot and we have been working on that as of middle of February. Those are the two features that did not impress me much, and currently with other customers I am improving them with Microsoft directly.

I would rate this product an eight overall.

Cloud management has streamlined zero touch onboarding and simplifies automated policy control
Pros and Cons
  • "The best feature in Microsoft Intune is zero touch deployment, which allows me to automate many tasks compared to manually installing Windows and applications one by one, making it easier to enroll devices with Autopilot and pre-deploy applications."
  • "Issues such as Windows 32 app failures occur frequently, and detailed manual detection rules are often necessary."

What is our primary use case?

I can describe the use case as working from scratch with the deployment profile, device restrictions, and application deployment since the company is totally on cloud, making it easy to use Microsoft Intune and apply everything needed effectively.

What is most valuable?

The best feature in Microsoft Intune is zero touch deployment, which allows me to automate many tasks compared to manually installing Windows and applications one by one, making it easier to enroll devices with Autopilot and pre-deploy applications. There are also self-assessments based on location and risk that improve conditional access and endpoint security. Moreover, I can utilize compliance policies and configuration profiles effectively by clearly defining what I need, testing them on a few devices, and then implementing them across the board, contributing to a smooth experience.

I assess the overall user experience as a mix. Specifically, for the Windows platform, it is totally fine and very easy to handle using features such as Autopilot, zero touch deployment, and IT management, allowing users to onboard smoothly in Microsoft Intune with pre-applications installed through Autopilot. However, for non-Windows platforms, there are many areas that still need improvement, such as on macOS. For Windows, it works well with compliance policies, conditional policies, and integration with multiple platforms such as Azure AD and Windows Defender.

What needs improvement?

Areas with room for improvement in Microsoft Intune include the policy sync process; reducing the time it takes for changes to be applied would help facilitate testing. Faster feedback on whether policies fail or pass would minimize wasted time while also improving the handling of Windows 32 application failures, which often depend on manual intervention to diagnose and initiate processes again.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft Intune for the last four to five years.

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

Prior to using Microsoft Intune, I experienced a hybrid model, and the switch to a cloud-only solution enhances manageability due to ease of backing up processes. Using Microsoft Intune or similar cloud-based tools simplifies management significantly compared to hybrid methods.

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

My thoughts on the pricing for Microsoft Intune are that while it might seem costly for a single service, if an organization operates completely on the cloud without a hybrid model, it is quite reasonable. The integration with other Microsoft services such as Entra ID and Defender adds substantial value and features, making the cost manageable.

On a scale of one to ten, with one being cheap and ten being expensive, I would place Microsoft Intune at a 7.5.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Comparing Microsoft Intune with other solutions, I find it excels for Windows management, but for non-Windows systems such as macOS or Linux, there is substantial room for improvement. Other tools, such as Addigy and Kandji, have made strides in enhancing macOS management; they apply policies immediately upon clicking, something Microsoft Intune struggles with.

What other advice do I have?

I have not initiated the use of Copilot in Microsoft Intune yet, but I am testing it; it has not been deployed to everyone. My experience has been that manually performing tasks may take more time, but having an AI tool to prompt actions can save time, and so far, testing Copilot has been good.

The deployment process in Microsoft Intune is a mix; for normal applications that do not require custom versions, it can be complex. Issues such as Windows 32 app failures occur frequently, and detailed manual detection rules are often necessary. I find that deployment failures require extensive troubleshooting, as I must dig through Microsoft Intune logs, refresh and sometimes start over with the same devices.

The deployment in our environment is primarily cloud and on-premises; however, we are not using a hybrid model. I am using about four hundred physical laptops in total, and while some devices are purchased directly from OEMs with hardware already deployed and onboarded smoothly, I am still working on onboarding other devices which are not yet on Autopilot individually.

Our organization currently has more than four hundred fifty users working with Microsoft Intune. The scenario is predominantly a mix of devices, with ninety percent being Windows, while the remaining are macOS. I have previously mentioned that our work with macOS is limited as I continue to test its capabilities; the policy syncing and application management are not as smooth as one would expect compared to third-party systems.

The solution does require maintenance; I use update rings with Windows for feature and normal updates, which are relatively easy. I create policies for updates that I test on a limited number of devices in IT; once I confirm that the policies have been successfully applied, I then roll them out to broader groups. There are instances where some systems fail to update, which requires troubleshooting and running a resync to resolve.

I would rate this review an eight out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Centralized management has reduced device provisioning time and simplifies endpoint security
Pros and Cons
  • "With Microsoft Intune, we set up the device within 20 to 30 minutes, reducing the provisioning time by 70 to 80%, and it has also reduced the IT workload by 40 to 60%."

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use case for Microsoft Intune is to secure, manage, and monitor all the endpoint devices from a central platform. I use Microsoft Intune to secure and manage endpoint devices by enrolling a new laptop automatically when a user signs in with corporate credentials, providing security settings and applications without any manual intervention for the IT team.

    How has it helped my organization?

    Microsoft Intune has positively impacted my organization in many ways, enabling us to perform remote actions and have device lifecycle control, such as remote wipe, reset device, and lock the device, along with role-based access control.

    These positive impacts translate into real results for my team by saving a good amount of time. With Microsoft Intune, we set up the device within 20 to 30 minutes, reducing the provisioning time by 70 to 80%, and it has also reduced the IT workload by 40 to 60%.

    What is most valuable?

    The best features Microsoft Intune offers include centralized device management and automating provisioning, which is really helpful with this device.

    Out of centralized device management and automated provisioning, I find centralized device management most valuable because it gives us good visibility from a single place, allowing me to see all the devices, whether their compliance is okay or not, and their security posture from a single console for real-time control and response.

    Unified endpoint management has streamlined global app deployment and strengthened security
    Pros and Cons
    • "Microsoft Intune is extremely important from a security perspective to ensure devices are compliant and gives us the efficiency to deploy apps automatically to a large number of users without the need for interaction from a client side, which is always helpful."
    • "In my opinion, Microsoft Intune has room for improvement. The pricing could be a little better, and the reporting could be a little better as well."

    What is our primary use case?

    My use case with Microsoft Intune is for device management, app deployment, configuration profiles, and conditional access.

    What is most valuable?

    The nice, clear interface when managing devices in Microsoft Intune is what I appreciate about the solution. It is quite intuitive and easy to navigate around.

    The app deployment is another feature I value.

    Microsoft Intune does help bring all of my endpoint and security management tools into one single place or into one single solution. I can clearly see if the device is compliant or not in there as well.

    Microsoft Intune is extremely important from a security perspective to ensure devices are compliant and gives us the efficiency to deploy apps automatically to a large number of users without the need for interaction from a client side, which is always helpful.

    Microsoft Intune works well for securing hybrid work. I have a variety of customers who do BYOD as well, so giving that flexibility of how much control we have over data is helpful.

    App deployment in Microsoft Intune definitely helps when it comes to managing app discovery, deployment, and automatic updating.

    Being able to deploy apps to multiple devices at once in Microsoft Intune is very helpful. I do not have to manually install, require admin rights, or anything else. Behind the scenes, silent deployment is very helpful from a disruptive point of view.

    Microsoft Intune does provide seamless integration with third-party solutions.

    Microsoft Intune is very helpful in terms of integration with the rest of the Microsoft ecosystem because it is already in the Microsoft ecosystem. Typically, all of my clients are under that Microsoft ecosystem, so that is always helpful. The UI is very clear and precise.

    Microsoft Intune is easy to maintain.

    What needs improvement?

    In my opinion, Microsoft Intune has room for improvement.

    The pricing could be a little better, and the reporting could be a little better as well.

    More granular reporting and aesthetically a little better improvement would be beneficial.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Microsoft Intune personally for probably six or seven years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I would give stability in Microsoft Intune a nine. It is up quite a lot.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    I would give scalability an eight.

    How are customer service and support?

    I would give technical support a seven for Microsoft Intune.

    Response times at Microsoft are sometimes not the best, which is why I rate it a seven.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

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

    I do use Jamf for Mac equipment. Jamf Connect is the product from Jamf I am using.

    How was the initial setup?

    I am satisfied with my partner.

    What about the implementation team?

    The purchase would have been through a partner, not through the AWS Marketplace.

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

    I would say Microsoft Intune falls around a six from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Potentially, I might use the advanced Endpoint Analytics in Microsoft Intune. It is not something I have been exposed to, but I might.

    I think I use third-party solutions for detecting and remediating anomalies in my endpoints, so potentially.

    What other advice do I have?

    Microsoft Intune allows me to grant the permissions as of when they need it for that particular role. On-demand access is quite helpful. I can also have it time-limited as well, so if a particular task has to be actioned just in a specific time, I can grant the level of access and then obviously revoke that as well. The monitoring and auditing on that is good as well.

    Using Microsoft Intune reduces the attack surface for my organization. I can revoke access if needed, so there is less risk.

    I do use Copilot in Microsoft Intune. I am not sure how it protects, but I know I enroll it for more client use with Microsoft Intune. Having it tie into Microsoft apps already is helpful, and from a security perspective, it is probably more intuitive if it is using AI and the Copilot model. Copilot in Microsoft Intune helps simplify my security operations by about fifty percent.

    Microsoft Intune saves me probably a couple of hours a week in terms of app deployment and other tasks.

    My user base is global. My clients are small to medium businesses. Fintech is the specific industry I take clients from.

    I would definitely consider Microsoft Intune if someone is already using Microsoft products. If someone is already in the Office 365 environment, that is my advice.
