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

"The best features in Microsoft Intune that I appreciate the most are the strong security, encryption, and operating system version."
"The thing I appreciate most about Microsoft Intune is that the management of the devices was very simplified. We have all machines connected to it at all times, whether they are in the office or working from home."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"The feature I like the most is that we can perform remote tasks. If we want to retire or wipe out personal data or corporate data from a device, we can use Microsoft Intune remotely, and with the click of a button, data is removed automatically. Nothing needs to be done from the end-user side."
"It's a complete solution for us where we use the Defender on the machines, the Defender agent, and then Microsoft Intune to manage the updates and highlight any critical vulnerabilities."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend Microsoft Intune to organizations looking for management of a large number of devices and enterprise environments."
"I would advise others this solution is easy to implement in the organization."
"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."
"The best feature of Check Point Remote Access VPN is the control during the connectivity—whenever I connect to my organization's network, my PC is always connected to the private network, even whenever I connect to the internet."
"Organizations that already use the Check Point NGFW Solution do not require any additional hardware, which makes the implementation straightforward and reduces the time to go live."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted our organization by allowing easier management of remote users, and it also gives us better insight into logging behind the scenes."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless access."
"After deploying Check Point Remote Access VPN, productivity has really improved because previously some users were unable to come to the office and were sitting idly at home without access to any resources in our private network."
"Once we install and connect the VPN service, it keeps on running until we disconnect."
"The clients of the customers have a facility to access the enterprise network."
"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."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"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 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."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The solution is very fast."
"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."
"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."
 

Cons

"Manually syncing devices to enforce policies is cumbersome."
"Lacking ability to leverage more iOS device management internally."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"With Microsoft technical support, they only fix Teams and when they are open, they're mostly trying to close again at the quickest time."
"The solution does require maintenance, and it is complex to maintain, especially regarding updates, patching, and releases."
"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."
"For macOS devices, we use the Jamf portal. I understand that the Jamf portal and server are more secure than Microsoft Intune for macOS."
"It would be nice to have a location tracker for the mobile device management tool. I'm not sure if it exists but hasn't been configured or if it's missing, but we've been unable to utilize the location features."
"The product’s architecture is a bit distributed."
"I think Check Point Remote Access VPN can be improved as it's more of an annoyance for a good number of the clients because it doesn't save their credentials."
"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."
"The Linux version may have an app (similar to Windows) instead of a shell script."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN's enterprise support could be improved."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN can be improved in throughput, as when multiple users are connected through the Remote Access VPN, there can be an issue where only a single user can access our single servers, which needs to be resolved."
"Improvements for Check Point Remote Access VPN could include enhancing mobile connectivity for a smoother user experience."
"They need to increase their timeout. Right now, it will fail after ten seconds, however, it shouldn't fail until after 20 seconds."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"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 solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The integration features could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price could be better."
"Microsoft Intune's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution is cost-efficient."
"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."
"The cost is somewhat on the higher side, particularly when considering certain price points, especially in markets like India."
"There is a license required to use the solution. If you're core users in Office 365, for example, you have Outlook email and E3 license, this is only email. You have to buy an EMS license to have Microsoft Intune. It is expensive."
"It is reasonable for the features it has."
"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."
"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."
"I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
"The price of this product is good."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is not expensive and the cost is annual."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"I can say that the licensing costs are charged annually."
"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."
"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."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
"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."
