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.

Remote access has transformed my hybrid work and now provides secure, fast connections anywhere
The best feature of Check Point Remote Access VPN is the easy connectivity. I just have to enter the gateway and the username and password, then click on connect and it will be connected to my organization network. The process is very straightforward and the remote control is outstanding with great connectivity. The remote control feature makes my work easier because there is no latency I am experiencing while accessing from a remote site. I mainly access two to three servers at a time, and I have not seen any lag or latency through Check Point Remote Access VPN. That is outstanding about Check Point Remote Access VPN solution. Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted my organization because productivity has increased.

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

"Microsoft Intune helps secure hybrid work by allowing organizations to manage and secure devices remotely."
"Intune does consolidate all endpoint and security management tools into one place, making everything easier to manage."
"We are transforming our flat network by adopting different cloud solutions, and our own applications are hosted in the cloud. Intune ensures our security throughout our entire cloud-based system, improving our security posture."
"I would say that it is at the top of the list when it comes to the competition."
"The best feature of Microsoft Intune is that it managed the endpoints."
"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."
"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."
"Microsoft Intune does a great job of helping protect our environment."
"Previously, we had around 15 corporate clients; through the COVID-19 pandemic, we have managed to grow and now have around 35 new corporate clients and more than 6,000 people connected by VPN, which has forced us to increase our infrastructure to support all these connections and have a stable, reliable, and, above all, scalable solution that can interconnect more clients."
"The ability for our entire global organization to work more securely and to allow us to deploy private and dedicated networks in more than one location."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted my organization by making remote work much smoother because people can connect securely from anywhere, and we've had fewer access issues during busy periods."
"The headache of connecting has been removed."
"The differentiator for this solution is the management interface that we find very good and provides a single view for all endpoints."
"Remote Access VPN is one of those essential items for every organization in order to maintain seamless and highly secured connectivity between the end-user and the organization's local area network to access resources - including Jump server Databases, et cetera."
"I found the MEP feature the most valuable. This has improved users' latency allowing the users to connect to the nearest Azure Check Point VM."
"For a basic setup, implementation is quite easy."
"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 SOS Support is a most valuable feature, as we have remote access from our phone, there is no need to install the software, and we can do it on the cloud."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"The solution is very fast."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
 

Cons

"I have a lot of Apple products in my environment. It would be nice to have an improved integration of Apple products with Microsoft Intune without Jam."
"Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."
"Every day, we see a new feature that we want to apply, but what will be great for Intune is to be able to deploy apps in a simple fashion."
"If you're looking forward to deficiency, I'd say that the Endpoint Manager support at the lower levels is poor."
"The reporting and troubleshooting experience with Microsoft Intune could be improved because clearer and more detailed error reporting for failed policies or applications installed would make administration much easier, especially when diagnosing policy sync or device compliance issues across large environments."
"Reporting in Microsoft Intune presents challenges because the built-in reports are often too basic."
"The support from Microsoft was previously good, but now it is very poor."
"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."
"When you need to create something, you have to follow many steps and I think that should be simplified."
"I would like this service to be easier to manage when you integrate it with third parties."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"Compliance Check on Check Point should be improved by having more configurable conditions to support multi-platforms and adding more granularity."
"The scalability needs improvement."
"Our key technical supports come during hours that are not aligned with our working hours, which sometimes affects our access to support."
"The maximum it is giving us is only 5 licenses and if you need more, they must be purchased separately."
"A characteristic to improve is the communication service under the SMTP scheme."
"The integration features could be better."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"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."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."
"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."
"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"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."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"Intune's pricing is competitive. For example, the license of Blackberry's Enterprise Mobility Suite was costly, but Intune is affordable. It is included as an additional feature when you buy security enhancements for your organization. For example, let's say I have fifty users in my organization and all of them are using Microsoft cloud services, like Teams, Office 365, and OneDrive."
"Intune is inexpensive. It also comes bundled in some Office 365 licenses, so you can choose to purchase it separately or as a package."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is not expensive and the cost is annual."
"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."
"The price of this product is good."
"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."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"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."
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
