We performed a comparison between Microsoft Intune and Red Hat Satellite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Configuration Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."A great solution for anyone wanting a modern endpoint device management solution."
"The conditional access policies that we set up are very useful."
"The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"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."
"This product works very well for companies already using the full Microsoft suite."
"It's easy to deploy a configuration or policy to a system, especially when you don't have Azure AD. Now we are talking to all these small and medium-sized customers who don't necessarily have an on-premise Windows Active Directory. If they have invested in Office 365 Premium, this functionality becomes available to them."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the management of the distributed tool we use in the Red Hat Linux Servers."
"The most valuable features of Red Hat Satellite are its support, simplicity, and patch management."
"Previously, we were using one server to update from a different repository over the HTTP. We had to manually manage the updates on the repository server. Satellite made the process easier."
"Patch management is, for sure, most valuable. For license management and patch management, I would rate it a 10 out of 10."
"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to process patching and updates completely offline without an internet connection."
"Satellite gives administrators the ability to target deployments and only send out the updates or provision updates to certain groups."
"I like the integration with other tools."
"Technical support has been good."
"Intune does not provide real-time visibility."
"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"Deploying an app can be a complex process due to dependencies."
"Integrating certain group policies can be challenging and may necessitate using on-premises systems to integrate them with Microsoft Intune."
"I think there should be a better tracking of the cell phones used on the Intune."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"They need to add more group policies. Intune currently does not have many group policies that you can deploy. Its reporting, which is very limited at the moment, also needs improvement. 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. They need to provide better support for complicated issues. They also have a long turnaround time."
"The technical support could be improved."
"It has not been significantly updated in a while."
"The dashboard of Satellite is not encouraging. It does not adequately showcase all the functionality it offers."
"Improving integration could lead to a more unified management experience for multiple operating systems within our data center."
"It should basically include a complete slew of system management and monitoring tools such as Nagios. It should be a single pane of glass that gives us a complete solution. It is a good solution, but it is missing a few important things. We're using Capsule for DMVs on other secured zones. Capsule is a part of Satellite to be a proxy of sorts."
"The product's automation capabilities need enhancement."
"Automation can always be improved and refined to continue to make it better."
"I would like the direct integration with insights to be re-established."
"It wasn't easy in the beginning, and some effort was required to work it out. I already had the product documentation, but it was not well organized. It wasn't easy to follow. There were a lot of documents here and there."
