Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance
One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Technique at Digitaltrack
Has improved security and enabled remote work flexibility across teams
The best features Check Point Remote Access VPN offers are its security features, which stand out to me. Whenever we are giving the remote access VPN to any employees or vendors, we can specify and control particular access. If we want to give access to a particular IP only, we can achieve that via this feature, and we also apply security features such as antivirus and anti-spyware while giving access to any employees or partners. The ability to control and specify access with Check Point Remote Access VPN, such as limiting to particular IPs or applying antivirus and anti-spyware, makes our environment safe from cyber threats and any types of malicious activities or accessing our private data. We control this through the feature by applying security policies that allow particular users. After deploying Check Point Remote Access VPN solution, I can say that our productivity has maximized. Users are working from home and even working 24/7. If they want, they can access our resources at any time, providing flexibility to work from anywhere. Employees say that sometimes they are not available during the working hour, but they can work from home at their flexible timing, needing access to our private network resources. They sit at home or any remote site and connect to our network to work, which is very good.

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance
I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, I like Intune as a solution and would rate it nine out of ten."
"The features of Microsoft Intune that I appreciate the most are its user-friendly interface and robust security options."
"Intune can wipe devices. For example, if a disgruntled employee wants to leak the data on their company phone, Intune can terminate their access and wipe the entire device with a click."
"The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"Intune is a very good cloud solution for managing devices."
"The best part of Intune is application deployment. We can deploy an application to several users with a single click. We can use conditional access, granting access to users based on certain conditions, such as location, platform, etc."
"The ease of applying security policies to applications we deploy is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"Its complete ROI, as expected."
"The Check Point solution offered us an unlimited number of users and that made the solution very scalable."
"The initial setup of Check Point Remote Access VPN is simple."
"The security and reliability we are receiving are exceptional."
"It is a scalable solution...The technical support team of the solution is very good."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has made my job easier because I don't need to worry about reaching the organization office and connecting to servers, as I am now free to work from anywhere and able to access the server securely and seamlessly."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted our organization by enabling employees to securely access internal systems from anywhere, which has reduced downtime and made it easier to stay connected while traveling or working from home."
"After deploying Check Point Remote Access VPN solution, I can say that our productivity has maximized; users are working from home and even working 24/7, and if they want, they can access our resources at any time, providing flexibility to work from anywhere."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"The solution is very fast."
"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."
 

Cons

"If you could replace SCCM completely with Intune, that would be fantastic so that you don't have to run SCCM with Intune as an extension."
"One area where Microsoft Intune could be improved is troubleshooting and reporting."
"Its integration with Mac and Linux devices can be better. They should provide more features similar to Windows. We should be able to manage policies within Linux and Mac machines. If we can have more granular controls for these two operating systems, it will be really helpful."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"There is always a noise when you are going to manage any endpoint devices, and noise is definitely there with this solution."
"Integrating certain group policies can be challenging and may necessitate using on-premises systems to integrate them with Microsoft Intune."
"Yes, there are a couple of issues with stability."
"Reporting needs to be better. Sometimes, it is way too slow, and it is not even accurate."
"The remote workers were experiencing issues like disconections, no IP avaliables from the DHCP, or unable to connect because the server didnt responde to a ping, however this issue was fix after we instlalled the JHF 125 on each gateway and after the upgrade, everythig has been working OK, but before that Check Point didn´t have a fix for that manner."
"The SSL VPN needs a Java applet to be installed and it is also dependent on the latest version of Java."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN's connectivity and establishment takes time and needs to be faster."
"We would like to see support for a layer seven VPN over UDP.-- currently some VPN solution are working on Layer 7 Platform."
"You have no ability to reserve a total number of licenses. The VPN user licenses are assigned per gateway, and if you enable MEP function is not so easy to size the gateway licenses."
"Our key technical supports come during hours that are not aligned with our working hours, which sometimes affects our access to support."
"The Compliance software blade is available only for the Windows operating systems family, so no macOS security checks are implemented and performed."
"This is the best version we are using, however, if some changes can be made in the next release, I'd like to see adjustments to the time period and internet connectivity."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The integration features could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."
"Intune is inexpensive. It also comes bundled in some Office 365 licenses, so you can choose to purchase it separately or as a package."
"There is a cost benefit of using Microsoft Intune because of the packaging with other Microsoft products."
"Our enterprise agreement includes Microsoft Intune at no additional cost."
"Microsoft Intune costs about $7 per user per month, which is somewhat on the pricier end. That said, it's a reliable product, so it's fair."
"The pricing is not cheap, especially with inflation. They've had to increase their prices. It's not excessive, but alright."
"The pricing for Microsoft Intune is reasonable. Our clients are satisfied."
"My team members bundled it together with their Microsoft solutions, including Microsoft 365 and related products."
"Regarding pricing, as a global customer, we get a big discount. For us, it's a good return on investment. We need to pay for additional features we want to enable. It seems cheaper than other vendors, but I can't say what it would cost an average customer."
"My understanding is that the pricing and licensing are very competitive, and it's not one of their more expensive products. We buy licenses for the solution and have licenses for the endpoint servers."
"The product is expensive. I rate its pricing a ten out of ten. For the cost of one product, we could purchase two or three Fortinet solutions with the same amount of money."
"My company makes yearly payments only towards the licensing costs attached to Check Point Remote Access VPN, as there are no extra costs attached to the product."
"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"I can say that the licensing costs are charged annually."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
