We can manage all aspects of our devices from a single console, easy to scale, and quick to deploy
Intune has many benefits from the Microsoft perspective. This solution can manage Windows 10 devices, app management, and provide security solutions. We don't need to worry about our network connection, and we'll be more secure with regular security patches and compliance. Since everything will be deployed through the internet and users will log in using the internet only, the risks have been mitigated. Security updates, security patching, and the application will be targeted from Intune. The location tracker will be available to track where the device is and the user's location. The user will be restricted from accessing certain applications using compliance policies. Conditional access policies will be based on the reason why the user needs access to the application. Microsoft Intune is one of the best products in the industry for managing Windows devices. The solution has more feature restrictions. The conditional access policies also eliminate the dependency on the on-prem network for the devices. The solution also manages our security settings and a lot of other beneficial features such as Microsoft Purview which gives us the compliance portion. We can manage all aspects of our device from a single console, including M365 services. This allows us to configure data classification types, such as public, private, internal, confidential, and highly confidential.

Accessing multiple PCs from remote locations is easy and reliable with this solution
The solution works very well, I do not have any problem with it at all. The only problem is they have more than tripled their price in the last three years over what they used to charge. A price reduction would probably be warranted as I am not getting three times the service. My husband uses it too and he agrees that a price reduction would be the only thing he would be looking for. The vendor more than tripled the price in the last three years — so it has doubled and then doubled again. They have just kind of gone through the roof when it comes to pricing and I think that they are justifying that because of the demand.

Easy to use and offers a good UI to users
In terms of the product's security features, the solution allows you to have team meetings, and you can also use it for remote access and screen-sharing capabilities. TeamViewer is typically like any other team collaboration software. I recommend the product to others since it is a good product for collaboration purposes. There are no connectivity challenges associated with the product. In terms of benefits, I would say that it is a good tool for collaboration, productivity, and virtual work as it saves a lot of commute time for the employees. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution."
"The reporting and analytics features in Microsoft Intune have been a lifesaver."
"...Intune itself integrates with that entire Microsoft ecosystem. As an individual product itself, it's okay. It holds up. But when you start saying "I've bought this as part of a wider solution, as a company we are going Microsoft throughout," then it makes more sense to have Microsoft Intune... so you have that single dashboard."
"Compliance and the policies that can be set are the most valuable features."
"Conditional access helps me control uncontrolled access."
"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."
"Intune has automated the deployment of patches and applications, which is more efficient and easier. It allows us to deploy applications, packages, Windows updates, and security updates like BitLocker encryption more efficiently and easily."
"The features I found most valuable in Intune are its user visibility and troubleshooting options."
"The installation is almost instant."
"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."
"The technical support is good."
"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."
"The solution is very quick to set up."
"It is quite simple to set up."
"The most valuable features of I use TeamViewer are the ease of access and frequent updates."
"TeamViewer is stable."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ability for administrators to lock the remote systems, simple connections, and easy login access."
"It's very easy to set up."
"This is a unique solution that is very easy to install."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is very fast. The file transfer from remote machines to my machine or from my machine to the remote machine works well."
 

Cons

"Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on."
"I would like to see micro VPN. I like the way that some of the other providers have done something similar where, as you open that app on an end-point device, it creates a micro VPN straight into your device, which is quite a nice little feature. Also, Microsoft Intune relies heavily on its fellow products in the suite. It would be nice if Microsoft Intune could stand on its own two feet."
"Integrating certain group policies can be challenging and may necessitate using on-premises systems to integrate them with Microsoft Intune."
"Customer service used to be better. In the last couple of years, support has not been very good, even with Premier and Premium support. It's been very hit-or-miss."
"Intune endpoint analytics can be challenging."
"I would like some integration with the Microsoft reporting platform Power BI."
"Onboarding of endpoint devices is not straightforward. The onboarding process was a little heavier than I thought it would be. That's the key improvement area. Obviously, the more control you have over the devices, the better it is."
"One issue that Inutune can improve is password integration with the BitLocker key option. Another issue is assigning licenses. We can assign the licenses for some users on the BPM side, and our BPS users work on Outlook 365 but cannot access it there. A BPS person can go to the company portal and download Outlook 2016. They could improve the NDIS part to assign a license directly to the BPS person that allows them to install the Intune device manager directly on our system."
"If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."
"The pricing has tripled in a small amount of time and there is not three times better service."
"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
"It would be useful if the solution could facilitate more than one remote user accessing my desktop at a time."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems."
"The support could improve their speed."
"I would like it if the trial version of TeamViewer allowed you to have a connection for much longer."
"There is a paid version of this solution with more features available. However, they should provide more free features to the user, such as factor authentication."
"Some of the additional features, like the meeting stuff, is making it too cluttered."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is quite okay. I wish they provide certain additional features with the same license."
"On a scale of one to ten with one being the cheapest, the cost of Microsoft Intune is a five."
"Intune comes with the licensing that is common for large organizations. However, Microsoft has recently released many add-ons that are very expensive, especially for large organizations or corporations."
"It is cheap, but as compared to Google, it is costly. Google is cheaper, but quality-wise, Microsoft Intune is better."
"Based on the features that it gives, it is cost-efficient. It is not necessarily on the expensive side of the scale. It provides a hefty number of features that any organization would want. It is in a good price range."
"The pricing is not cheap, especially with inflation. They've had to increase their prices. It's not excessive, but alright."
"Intune is available as an individual product, but it also comes with Office 365 Premium or an Enterprise license, and the price varies for each version."
"The purchase of the product was handled by someone else."
"We pay approximately 2,000 Euros a year for the solution. The licensing is all-inclusive; you don't have to pay for extra add-ons or services."
"It was cheap and now it is comparably expensive. It costs me $484 to use the solution with just two physical PCs."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
"TeamViewer has multiple licensing options."
"We have a permanent license and the price is reasonable."
"We use the free version of TeamViewer."
"It would be nice if it is cheaper."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."
