Quick to deploy, easy to set up, and offers good remote device management
Pros and Cons
- "The initial setup is easy and the deployment doesn't take too long."
- "The pricing could always be better."
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
We have been manually provisioning everything for end-users, however, with this tool, now we have more control over the items on the end-user side and we can regularly update them from one place. It makes everything much easier.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ability to remotely manage the devices. That's what it is meant to do. We can push applications to mobile devices from the portal.
Overall, we've been very happy with VMware.
The initial setup is easy and the deployment doesn't take too long.
What needs improvement?
I don't see any such areas where we are lacking. I was just doing the evaluation of other products to see if they have something else. However, this isn't missing anything, even when you look at the competition.
The pricing could always be better. It would be nicer if they were cheaper and more competitive.

Currently, we have about 250 users on the solution.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is not complex. It's very straightforward. A company shouldn't have any issues with the initial setup process.
The deployment took a few days to roll out. We did the implementation about two years ago now, and therefore it's hard to recall exactly what our deployment strategy was at that time.
What about the implementation team?
We had a systems integrator assist us with the initial deployment. We did not completely handle everything in-house by ourselves.
The experience was good. They were able to understand what we need and they deployed it very smoothly.

- "It is like any other mobile solution. It gives us the ability to control remotely, and that is what we like. We can wipe out and deploy remotely."
- "They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
What is our primary use case?
We use it for managing mobiles at a very elementary level. Basically, we want to control mobiles and allow a limited number of apps.
What is most valuable?
It is like any other mobile solution. It gives us the ability to control remotely, and that is what we like. We can wipe out and deploy remotely.
What needs improvement?
They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration.

Its pricing was okay for our company.
What other advice do I have?
I don't have any experience with other similar solutions, so I can't compare it with others. We decided to go with it and stick with it. It served the purpose in my previous organization. It is also serving the purpose in this organization. It is pretty good. VMware is one of the leaders.
I would rate VMware Workspace ONE a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Private Cloud

What is most valuable?
It has all of the features that we need to use and that we want to use.
What needs improvement?
I would like to see some integration with native Microsoft products such as anti-value.

Pricing is an area that could be improved.
They are much better than Microsoft but it is difficult to compete against them.
Microsoft has everything embedded and VMware is a different product.
What other advice do I have?

Head of IT at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Stable, scalable, good multi-platform capabilities, and good support
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature of this solution is the multi-platform support."
- "The initial setup should be simplified."
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of this solution is the multi-platform support.
All features are at all sites.
What needs improvement?
The initial setup should be simplified.
I would like to see further integration suites and user direct using IdPs such as Okta. I would also like proper integration in the field of endpoint security.
For how long have I used the solution?
I am planning to use this solution now. It's not up and running fully.
I implemented it at a previous company that is reworking it now, and have been using it for a year and a half, in a positive way.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability is superb.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's a scalable solution.
How are customer service and technical support?
I like the technical support a lot. It's really first hand, high-level support.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is pretty complicated. It can be a steep learning curve.
It can take between three to six months to deploy and get everything fully working.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Pricing is the correct price, it's normal pricing. I think that the price is reasonable.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We evaluated Intune by Microsoft, as well as and Jamf.
Intune is more Windows-focused, with limited capabilities for Mac OS.
Also, it is high maintenance.
Jamf is only focused on Macintosh, and the integration with Windows is limited.
What other advice do I have?
My advice is to find a good integrator to assist with the implementation.
I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Technical Specialist at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Stable and scales well but needs better training
Pros and Cons
- "We've found the solution to be easy to use."
- "Technical support needs to be more responsive to our requests."
What is our primary use case?
This solution is primarily used for mobility services. The solution has been mainly used for multiple platforms, including Android, Linux-based services, Windows, and MacBooks. If you want to access your organization data from anywhere, from any device, you do it via this solution.
What is most valuable?
The solution is very stable.
The solution scales well.
We've found the solution to be easy to use. Compared to other products, this is much better for MBM products.
What needs improvement?
The solution needs to offer better training. We need to understand items such as third-party integration capabilities or new features before we start to work on a new implementation. Sometimes, this isn't clear and it can affect our work. The training that is available is quite expensive for us. They need to make it much more reasonable so that we can afford to be properly trained and informed.
Technical support needs to be more responsive to our requests. If something happens on a weekend, we won't get any help until at least the next business day.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for the past two years at this point.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The product is very stable. We don't experience bugs or glitches per se. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is quite scalable. If a company wants to expand it, they can. It's not difficult.
Currently in my organization, we are using the solution for 300 people. However, I have done installations for approximately five to six clients. In the last one and a half years I have done installations for different types of devices and have handled anywhere from 5,000 devices, and users all the way up to 10,000 users. In the latest deployment I'm working on has 30,000 users.
How are customer service and technical support?
Technical support is pretty good. That said, if something happens on a weekend, we won't be able to get the support we need. It also sometimes takes a while to get everything resolved. We might have to email back and forth two or three times. It really should be faster.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I also have experience with Jamf Pro, however, that solution is specifically used for Apple products.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup can be straightforward, however, it depends on the installation requirements and the clients' requirements. It depends on if they want the DR setup or a DC or SA set up, and/or clustering. If the requirements increase, the time it takes will increase as well. If the prerequisite has been done clearly previous to the starting of the installation, then it will take much less time.
What about the implementation team?
I implement the solution on behalf of clients.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't handle licensing or billing. Therefore, I'm not sure what the total cost is to our organization. I don't know if it's overly expensive or fairly reasonable. I'm purely a technical team member.
What other advice do I have?
I'm using the latest version of the solution.
I'm not a client. I'm an architect of Workspace ONE. I implement the solution for clients, so I don't use it directly per se. I implement all deployment models, both cloud and on-premises.
I'd recommend the solution to other companies.
Overall, I've been pretty satisfied with the solution. I would rate it at a seven out of ten. It has all of the features I need. We just need to be better informed when there are new features or changes.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Pros and Cons
- "VMware Workspace ONE has been stable so far."
- "It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users."
What is our primary use case?
We mainly use VMware Workspace ONE for managing Macs and iOS devices.
What needs improvement?
Although it's supposed to be compatible with Chromebooks and Windows, we find that it's quite limited. I think it doesn't work properly with Chromebooks because you need a Google license to manage them. For this reason, we didn't end up using AirWatch with Chromebooks.
The overall accuracy could also be improved. It's not accurate enough when it comes to sending items to end-users.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using VMware Workspace ONE for three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
VMware Workspace ONE has been stable so far.
How are customer service and technical support?
My main concern with the support is that they don't have a team. You always get a freelancer — often there are difficulties relating to language barriers. Sometimes they are experts, sometimes they are not.
What about the implementation team?
I didn't do the initial setup by myself. I had to hire a consultant and some other specialists to do it for me.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
VMware Workspace ONE is not cheap; it's quite expensive. However, in the end, they gave us a reasonable price.
What other advice do I have?
If you have Mac or SNIS devices, it works fine and the price will be reasonable. If you have a lot of money to invest, there are better options out there.
Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give VMware Workspace ONE a rating of eight.
There should be more powerful features available for Mac, like what GEMS has already introduced — especially in regards to the level of system updates, and software updates. It should be easier to manage things, especially for Mac. If they improved this, I would give them a higher rating.

It's a costly product. It would help if they could offer it at a discount.
It would be ideal if the solution could enhance the user interface and make a modern dashboard.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for just one year. Previously, we used Horizon 7. I haven't been using this solution for very long.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable. It doesn't have bugs or glitches that affect its performance. It doesn't crash or freeze at all. It's pretty reliable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it should be able to do so without issue.
How are customer service and technical support?
Technical support for this solution is very good. They are knowledgeable and responsive. We're pretty happy with them so far and have been satisfied with the level of service we receive.
How was the initial setup?
The solution is not too complex to set up. We found the implementation fairly easy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution is quite expansive.
What other advice do I have?
We're a VMware partner.
Overall, I would rate the solution eight out of ten. It's quite good, however, it's also quite expensive.

IT Professional at a energy/utilities company with 51-200 employees
A stable product and the interface for SCAP is good
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature is the interface with SCAP, which is the Security Content Automation Protocol."
- "The reverse proxy is not intuitive and it takes time to get it right, so this is something that can be improved."
What is our primary use case?
We use Workspace ONE with our shared devices.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature is the interface with SCAP, which is the Security Content Automation Protocol.
What needs improvement?
The reverse proxy is not intuitive and it takes time to get it right, so this is something that can be improved.
The cost of this product is a little high and should be reduced.
There are a lot of interfaces and components, which makes the setup a little bit complex.
If you have a lot of shared devices and want to have a mass deployment, then it is time-consuming to do. They have a feature where you can send out a code for enrollment under VMware, to obtain a user ID, but even with that, it has to be done one by one. You have to go inside and dig out the code, one at a time, and record it. It would be helpful if it generated a report so that you could use it to talk with the team. As it is now, it is not difficult but it could have been done better.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using VMware Workstation ONE for a few months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
This product is quite stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I presume that it is scalable.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have used and are still using other similar solutions.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup for us was simplified because we started with implementing a PoC. There are too many interfaces involved, which makes it complex at the start of the deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost is a little bit high.
What other advice do I have?
As we have just begun using this product, we are still comparing some of the features that it has.
I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
