Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, VMware, ManageEngine and others in Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)."The best feature is that we don't need to worry about downtime. We don't need to worry about the network connections of our office or the virtual private network. Everything is being done through the internet. Using Intune Autopilot, we can configure and deploy everything to the devices."
"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows."
"It helps implement conditional access policies to restrict mobile users from accessing potentially dangerous emails."
"Easy to use."
"I haven't used other mobile device management solutions, but compared to SCCM, we eliminate a lot of on-premises infrastructure and maintenance by using Intune."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"Okta Workforce Identity is easy to use and has a lot of components."
"The solution can scale very well."
"First of all, the solution is very simple."
"Workforce Identity's best features include its user-friendliness and easy setup."
"The ease of deployment, ease of use, and speed of delivery is what I like about Okta Workforce Identity. It is very easy to use. For a lot of software, you need to be trained extensively and have a very technical background. Okta Workforce Identity is quite simple. You can integrate any software into Okta. They've got a network of 7,000 applications that easily integrate into it."
"The provisioning functionality has been the most valuable. This solution has good performance, fast integration and is very responsive."
"Having a single sign-on to all our applications."
"They have good push authentications."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"Intune's third-party patch management could be better. It should be easier for the average system admin to keep non-Microsoft applications updated."
"I would like to see easier pushdowns. Currently, we have to package our own software and then push it. Intune can make that way easier and integrate applications, such as Zoom and Adobe Acrobat, that are used by a lot of enterprise or corporate organizations."
"There are a couple of issues with stability."
"I would like to see micro VPN. I like the way that some of the other providers have done something similar where, as you open that app on an end-point device, it creates a micro VPN straight into your device, which is quite a nice little feature. Also, Microsoft Intune relies heavily on its fellow products in the suite. It would be nice if Microsoft Intune could stand on its own two feet."
"Intune doesn't provide much control over Windows servers. It's something we struggle with."
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We've not had any problems with Okta."
"This user integration with the Okta integration network could be simplified."
"There are some issues with the interface that can be improved."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow."
"The training is too costly."
"In some setup cases, there are issues with attributes not going in properly."
"The solution's user interface needs to be improved and made easy."
"In my country, there's a lot of stealing of mobile phones, and mobile phones are the authentication device through the Okta application. If someone should steal my mobile phone, which is very common in my country, he or she might have access to my company account. That's my concern."
