Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Used to control mobile devices
Remote Wipe is one of the vital options everybody looks for in 42Gears SureMDM or any MDM product. We are trying to get the latest product updates as much as possible, and it is mostly automated. Two to three engineers are involved in the solution’s maintenance. I would recommend the solution to other users. Overall, I rate the solution an eight or nine out of ten.

Effortless policy management with built-in simplicity that enhances user experience
I work in kiosk delivery for my users' laptops and cellular phones It's very easy to use. It's very comfortable to work on Hexnode since its form and usage are very simple. The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for us is the security, including risk analysis and patch management."
"The solution is easy to use."
"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"Intune enables us to manage our devices from anywhere."
"Microsoft Intune is very stable due to its cloud-based infrastructure and its reliability in performance."
"It's very informative when there is an error. It allows us to backtrace where the error is and resolve that ourselves. It's a bit of a Swiss Army penknife. We find that it fixes most issues."
"There are no complaints about the stability. It works one hundred percent of the time."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Payloads, application publishing, and cataloging features are valuable to our customers."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"We use the solution primarily to control mobile devices."
"This solution is very dynamic. I can do what I need to do with it."
"The solution's customer support is good."
"Its dashboards are valuable. It is easy to access dashboards and implement policies."
"The most valuable features of 42Gears SureMDM include tracking location and pushing applications."
"The agility is impressive, and it's simple to manage."
"It's very easy to use."
 

Cons

"Additional application deployment options e.g. MSI deployment with more complex parameters or additional side-by-side files, and non-MSI deployment options."
"Lacking in features such as Wi-Fi and network security."
"The installation could be improved to be simplified."
"Regarding mobile devices, Intune is good, but there are other services that I would say are ahead of Intune from an administration and reporting point of view."
"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."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"The initial setup is a little bit complex."
"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"As a partner, we consider 42Gears to be a unified endpoint management (UEM) solution. So, we should be able to manage users with this particular solution. This is something that is currently not there. It is probably an area for improvement for 42Gears."
"42Gears SureMDM needs to improve support because it may take around one to two days to receive a revert."
"User creation on Mac must be improved."
"The dashboards could be improved."
"Online information regarding used cases specific to 42Gears SureMDM will help us do configuration changes more comfortably."
"The user interface and customization features are not the best and could be improved."
"The product is not so convenient to deploy or to configure."
"The solution’s pricing could be made cheaper."
"The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer Spanish support."
"The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer Spanish support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"The pricing is inherently reasonable, as Microsoft leverages market insights to maintain the total cost of ownership at around ninety to ninety-five percent of what would be incurred in an on-premise scenario."
"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."
"Existing E5 license holders for M365, Intune, and Azure, receive a free license."
"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."
"Generally, we get favorable discounts, so it's not too bad. Obviously, we're looking at decreasing those wherever we can to bring value back to the public purse because it's all charity based. It's all publicly funded."
"Their pricing structure is very good against the competition. Pricing is definitely not a challenge here."
"I rate the tool's pricing a four out of ten."
"There is an option to make yearly or monthly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. Price-wise, the product is okay."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for 42Gears SureMDM, which is comparatively expensive for an enterprise license."
"The tool is expensive and priced at 39 dollars yearly. The pricing is fixed and I would rate it a seven-point five out of ten."
"I am satisfied with the price of this solution."
"42Gears SureMDM is not an expensive solution."
