BMC TrueSight Server Automation and Spring Cloud both compete in the realm of IT management software, with BMC focusing on server management and automation, and Spring Cloud specializing in microservices framework. Spring Cloud seems to have the upper hand due to its flexibility and developer-friendly environment.
Features: BMC TrueSight Server Automation provides patch management, compliance, and security automation. Spring Cloud offers service registration, configuration management, and intelligent routing.
Room for Improvement: BMC TrueSight Server Automation needs to simplify its complexity, enhance performance, and address its learning curve. Spring Cloud requires better documentation, more extensive out-of-the-box integration options, and improved guidance and support.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: BMC TrueSight Server Automation demands a more intricate setup, significant resource allocation, and has a steeper learning curve. Spring Cloud enjoys simpler deployment, better cloud-native integration, but requires improved customer service responsiveness and assistance.
Pricing and ROI: BMC TrueSight Server Automation involves higher initial setup costs and slower ROI due to complexity and deployment time. Spring Cloud has a lower cost of entry and faster ROI due to ease of deployment and flexibility, but users note gaps in support and documentation.
In the last couple of years, support has not been very good, even with Premier and Premium support.
Microsoft's service and technical support for Intune have been good.
You have to use something like Power BI and Graph to get better reporting.
If my organization has sensitive data we don't want to leak, deploying the policies can present technical challenges and potential loopholes.
I know what's included in 365 Premium offering, and it's a good deal.
The pricing is integrated with Entra, making it better than paying for a separate platform.
If Intune is not available, the 365 environment might not be available, causing a major ordeal.

Reviews from Real Users
Microsoft Intune stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to secure all devices under its management and the flexibility that the solution offers its users.
A computing services manager notes, "Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."
The head of IT engineering at a financial services company writes, "The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types: we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager (MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company details on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."
