Modern endpoint management has transformed onboarding and strengthened remote security controls
The features of Microsoft Intune are straightforward, including Windows Autopilot, zero-touch deployment, centralized device management, and conditional access security controls. Using zero-touch deployment and Windows Autopilot in Microsoft Intune has significantly improved my workflow and organization. New laptops are shipped directly to users with no IT handling needed, and there is no manual imaging or configuration required. These features have a real impact. They save hours of manual setup per device, reduce dependency on the IT team for basic provisioning, and ensure every system is configured consistently and securely. Microsoft Intune has positively impacted my organization by improving device management. Devices are managed from a single cloud console. It has reduced manual work for provisioning and configuration. It has faster onboarding using Autopilot. It has enhanced security posture through enforced compliance policies, encryption, antivirus, and password rules. Conditional access ensures only trusted devices can access resources. I have better support for remote users, as devices can be managed from anywhere with no dependency on office network or VPN for basic management. It has easy troubleshooting and policy updates.

Centralized device control has strengthened compliance and continuously improves risk visibility
The packaging of the solution or the offering of Hexnode UEM could be improved or enhanced, because one package does not fit all. Hexnode UEM should be flexible in its solution offering. Currently, they only have around three types of licenses or packages, and whether you use the solution or the features or not, they are already included in the suite. Some products offer an a la carte solution, so in order to compete with those products, Hexnode UEM should consider repackaging the solution with respect to the region where it is being offered. The solution offered to India might not be optimal if it is offered to the Philippines or a different country, so the offering should be on a country-by-country basis or a regional basis.
Vishal Bhatia - PeerSpot reviewer
Trainer/Consultant at Koenig Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
Effective product tracking and monitoring enhances daily operations despite needing documentation improvement
The documentation part of Workspace ONE UEM can be confusing. The documentation is not comprehensive compared to other VMware solutions or Microsoft documentation. Most people struggle to connect the dots when looking at the documentation. Even the training material and PowerPoint slide decks that trainers use are sometimes too confusing or overwhelming, with too much content but not enough clarity. The support side has recently become weaker compared to what it used to be with VMware. This is another area that needs improvement. Since working with Workspace ONE UEM from when it was AirWatch, it has improved significantly over the last five years. However, there are still some gray areas and scope for improvement, especially in documentation and workflow between different aspects of the solution.

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 cloud-based service. It is easy to use and offers privacy."
"Microsoft Intune is a core product, and it's very stable"
"Microsoft Intune is a great product, and you should use it."

"Workspace One is a product that I strongly recommend."
"The feature with the highest rating for me is its employee management, and I can also praise how versatile it is in terms of operating systems, with good support for multiple operating systems that it can easily manage while supporting any kind of tool that can be run on all these operating systems."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is it provides the ability to find out the location of devices and manage end-point solutions when they are deployed, and keep them secure."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"The feature that we find most valuable is the corporate email pushing."
"The solution's Self-Service feature is valuable because it gives a single managed application that users can download and use based on their preferences and productivity."
"This product is effective and simple to manage."
 

Cons

"I assess the stability of the product as low. I have faced downtime crashes and performance issues with Microsoft Intune."
"In the future, I would like to see improvements in Microsoft Intune, especially related to policies and GPU."
"The solution can have some compliance problems in general and the end-point user can bypass easily the company policies in Intune."
"Intune should improve its software inventory to provide better metering of which software is used throughout the company. This is especially needed for reporting third-party software solutions."
"I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product."
"Due to the abundance of features, there's a lot to organize, which makes managing and setting up the solution challenging. The setup is immense, and it would be good to see improvement in this area."
"I want more secure, reliable, and efficient security policies."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer Spanish support."

"The packaging of the solution or the offering of Hexnode UEM could be improved or enhanced, because one package does not fit all."
"We have not had good experiences with technical support. We have many tickets remaining that are unresolved."
"We have had a need to move the database, and that was fairly difficult as documentation was sparse, and the first support technican said AirWatch would need re-installed."
"Using the solution on Android requires a special setup, the mobile SSO doesn't work as well."
"VMware should develop an integrated platform for their security products to give a singular integrated and holistic view of the devices covered by different security products whether Workspace One or Carbon Black."
"For the purpose that this solution is designed for it works great, but it doesn't compare well with other solutions."
"There are other solutions that might be better for certain use cases."
"There are other solutions that might be better for certain use cases. This is not an all-purpose solution."
"VMware Workspace ONE is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Intune is linked with Microsoft. We can deploy the Microsoft E365 license to users by Intune. There are different types of licenses, such as device administrator licenses, E5 licenses for device enrollment manually, and P1 and p2 licenses for device enrollment automatically. These are the licenses required for the administration."
"The product is relatively pricey, but considering its benefits, I'd say it's fair. The benefits outweigh the expensive licensing fees, especially for large organizations, but medium-sized and smaller businesses may be unable to afford it."
"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"Intune's pricing is reasonable considering its benefits and the high costs it helps avoid."
"We don't get Intune as a separate module. Most of the time, we use it within an enterprise agreement like E3 or E5. Those licenses are at a good price, but what is annoying is that every single year they go higher."
"It is not expensive."
"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."
Information not available
"For big users, it's around $500."
"The pricing and licensing are affordable. They are not too high."
"The pricing currently is higher than the competition."
"While the platform offers comprehensive solutions, it can be expensive, especially if you only need it for occasional testing and deployment."
"We pay approximately thirty to thirty-five euros per device per month for the complete suite, and this is a fixed cost with one, three, or five-year licensing in advance. I would rate the pricing a four out of ten, making it affordable."
"Pricing is an area that could be improved."
"The solution is about $45 per device for a 12 month subscription. The price is standard across the world."
"VMware Workspace ONE has a yearly license. You have to buy the license for one year at a time."
