Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Secure remote access has transformed global support and simplified cross-platform collaboration
BeyondTrust Remote Support has good features that are not available in other apps, including rebooting without disconnection and the ALT + CTRL + deletion function. It's easier for data transfer, and multiple people can join a session easily. I think BeyondTrust Remote Support could be improved by being a bit more user-friendly in terms of connecting for a user. I would add that the zoom function allows us to zoom, but you can't particularly move around once you have zoomed in. Additionally, sometimes a remote connection cannot be established for unknown reasons, even if the host machine is clearly online. I have noticed that BeyondTrust ABS can sometimes be challenging to navigate, but it's no more challenging than other competitors.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very easy to use. It has a very easy interface."
"The insights, even though we're talking about charts and graphs, are super valuable to customers who might not otherwise know what's in their ecosystem or the current state of things within their ecosystem."
"The compliance and configuration policies in Microsoft Intune are the most valuable features, saving significant time compared to manual implementation."
"There are so many features, but Windows Autopilot is one of the features that are very valuable for most customers."
"These capabilities have made a significant impact in my work, providing a comprehensive view of all devices and features in a single platform."
"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."
"Conditional access helps me control uncontrolled access."
"Intune's feature that I have found most valuable is its auto-pilot feature."
"The solution has been very stable. We haven't had issues at all. It doesn't crash or freeze. There aren't bugs or glitches either."
"It has a straightforward setup. Bomgar has created a simple, lightweight deployment process."
"The jump to feature function is the most valuable to us as it allows us to directly remote control customers."
"The remote reboot feature is particularly valuable for rebooting terminal servers that have power controls disabled."
"I would rate the technical support as a nine out of 10. They are polite, quick, and good with follow-ups."
"Offers a secure method of access without having to install agents everywhere."
"This is a very secure product."
"We have not encountered any issues with stability. Updates leave us with less than 30 minutes of downtime."
"This product is very simple to use and you can connect whether you are behind a firewall or not."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer Tensor is the remote access."
"Remote desktop sharing is one valuable feature of the solution."
 

Cons

"Automatic updating is pretty rough. It doesn't give me as much control as I had in the past."
"My whole team is saying that they would rate technical support a three or four out of ten."
"There can be some added features, such as an improved dashboard. Any new feature that could be a benefit to our customers would be good."
"There is room for improvement in server patch management and allowing direct uploads of EXE applications instead of needing to convert them to Intune format, which would save time."
"I heard some pain points. The main thing is the learning curve. It took time to implement. It was not the best product starting out of the gate."
"Microsoft Intune lags market leaders, such as Apperian, in its MAM capabilities."
"Sometimes, the process is unsuccessful when we attempt to reset a device and wipe the data using Intune."
"There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations."
"I would like more insight into completed sessions. This would be nice, such as a historical log into the technician client application."
"Technical support for this region can be improved."
"There were a few employee devices that failed during the initial deployment, which required a second deployment."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"Customer support was better in the past. About two years ago, the response times became longer."
"The ability to connect mobile devices could be improved. Smartphones and tablets are becoming more prevalent throughout corporate environments. From time to time, we have problems connecting to those devices. You can't stage the application to connect without a user's input. You had to guide them through enabling permissions for the app. Then they need to enter the URL and session key. It would be great if they could streamline that process."
"The screen annotation tools could be expanded. I would like to see a text/typing annotation tool."
"In the next release, I would like remote access to Chrome included."
"The solution could include more AI (Artificial Intelligence)."
"Having the ability to create subgroups and delegate permissions to the group members would be a helpful addition."
"The SSO feature of the solution may sometimes not function perfectly…Pricing might be improved for TeamViewer Tensor."
 

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."
"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."
"We have a limited budget for security investments, so Microsoft should consider reducing pricing in our region. This would make investment more viable, especially since larger businesses in other countries can afford it easily."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"The price could be better."
"It comes as a bundle, so you do not really know what the prices are. Microsoft does not break it down to the user cost for us. It is just bundled with our E5 license."
"Based on the features that it gives, it is cost-efficient. It is not necessarily on the expensive side of the scale. It provides a hefty number of features that any organization would want. It is in a good price range."
"With our standard E5 agreement with Microsoft, there have been no pricing concerns. Introductory professional services, like a fast-track service, were included with our E5 membership, and there have been no additional costs."
"The licensing is concurrent and we spend about $10,000. It's my understanding that there aren't any extra costs beyond just the straight licensing."
"The solution is subscription-based and depends on the number of admin users."
"Bomgar has a very fair pricing structure."
"The cost currently according to the client is a bit high for them."
"I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
"Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
"We believe for the money, it is worth what you pay."
"Their pricing is a little bit high but it's negotiable depending on the type of client. It is approximately R6,000 per year for a user. I would rate the pricing a four out of five."
"I rate pricing a ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high. There are no additional costs attached to the licensing of the solution."
"The pricing is a little bit on the higher side."
