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

"We have found the solution is capable of scaling."
"What I like most about the tool is that it's now very easy to set up a device for someone to use. It also helps us tremendously in managing security. Before, we used on-premise management with a domain controller. It was difficult to manage security comprehensively. For example, it was hard to know which computers were updated. We weren't able to do that easily with our previous solution."
"The standout features of Intune are its excellent mobile device management and highly effective application management capabilities."
"One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Intune is not only the management itself, but also how well it integrates with other Microsoft technologies."
"The most reliable feature is the integration with Microsoft XDR, which grants administrators and solution architects like me the ability to bring value to a business."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."
"The Autopilot feature is fantastic. It is a Microsoft product, so it deals best with Microsoft operating systems, but it can integrate with iOS, Mac OS, Linux, and Android."
"The management of the solution is very simple. It allows for a single view of all the endpoints."
"For a basic setup, implementation is quite easy."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted my organization by greatly increasing productivity because users are now working from anywhere, and even during leave, they can easily work at any time."
"The ability to create your trigger data domains is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The headache of connecting has been removed."
"It is a scalable solution...The technical support team of the solution is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point Remote Access VPN is its ability to deploy. It follows the same process as their stateful inspection firewall or IPS. If you know how to enable one feature, you can enable and configure others. The learning curve isn't steep."
"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."
"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."
"The initial setup is simple."
"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 solution is very fast."
"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
 

Cons

"If your MDM has to be really specific, perhaps Intune is not the better option."
"When Microsoft Intune is used with different android devices it does not always work as it is supposed to."
"To make it a perfect ten, it would be helpful if there was a better way to troubleshoot user issues, as I've had a few users with corrupt files before and had to redeploy it without knowing the root cause."
"For migrations, sometimes we experience some issues with OS deployment and the user experience side."
"One area where Microsoft Intune could be improved is troubleshooting, as it sometimes takes time to identify the exact cause when application deployments or policy assignments do not work as expected."
"I rate Microsoft customer service six out of 10. While some technicians go above and beyond, there is inconsistency, and connecting with the most helpful representatives is occasionally challenging."
"I'd like some more reporting so that I don't have to delve into PowerShell and I can pull more of the local device information such as memory, apps installed, etc. It would be nice to be able to see the apps that are present there but might not be managed. For example, if they installed 7Zip, it could report that back via an installed program or feature to see what was currently installed."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"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."
"Bug Fixes and enhancement requests should be remediated earlier."
"We would like to see support for a layer seven VPN over UDP.-- currently some VPN solution are working on Layer 7 Platform."
"The Linux version may have an app (similar to Windows) instead of a shell script."
"Sometimes, we have noticed that owing to installation of various antivirus and running of inbuilt firewalls, the connection for VPN sporadically drops and tries to reconnect."
"In my organization, there aren't Linux users, however, I know it has difficulties offering secure access for customers who use this operating system."
"A characteristic to improve is the communication service under the SMTP scheme."
"We'd like to integrate Check Point into the Remote Access VPN solution and have the ability to integrate multiple devices as access points through the solution."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"The integration features could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't have any problem as far as cost is concerned. It is bundled with our license."
"The product is offered as part of a Microsoft standard bundle. The pricing can be competitive to Airwatch, and Maas360."
"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."
"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."
"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
"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."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is not expensive and the cost is annual."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."

"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
