Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

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.

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

"This product allows us to restrict users who have access to the system, or to Office 365."
"It supports end-users who tend to lock their devices quite frequently. Its conditional access policy helps us keep the users logged into their devices."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that we are able to send application deployments and certifications for conditional access."
"Easy to use."
"Intune makes our organization more secure and flexible. We can onboard new employees faster and more securely. We are a governmental organization with strict regulations, and Intune helps us comply with those requirements."
"Microsoft Intune is brilliant for scalability and is excellent for scaling purposes."
"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"The Autopilot feature is the most valuable because it saves significant time on managing devices. We can ship devices globally, and users can set them up on their own. It's convenient."
"Hexnode UEM has in-depth support of device operating systems, which is one of the most common requirements."
"The agility is impressive, and it's simple to manage."
"It's very easy to use."
"Zero Trust implementation is a great feature."
"The solution has proven to be very stable."
"From a remote management perspective, I like the management and the inventory."
"I would recommend this solution because it's simple for end-users."
"Its value is when you use it with a Workspace ONE UEM solution as it is part of the ecosystem for VMware Workspace ONE."
"If a customer requires a true solution then I would say VMware is the right choice."
"The most valuable feature is that it will use my credentials to access various parts of the infrastructure or other solutions, such as vRealize."
"The product offers very good performance, we are able to use HTML for the web connection which is quite helpful, and the solution has proven to be very stable and rather scalable."
 

Cons

"The most significant challenge is reporting and monitoring. The reporting accuracy for deploying applications and all aspects of Intune needs to be improved."
"I switched away from Microsoft Intune because it cannot manage the MacBook very well."
"The security aspect could be more effective."
"I've dealt with Microsoft way too many times, and needless to say, I'm not too fond of Microsoft support most of the time."
"There are a lot of small use cases where we realized that some technical solution was missing in Microsoft in comparison to other products. For example, it lacks something similar to sensing or location-based rules and configurations."
"If we can not seem to get even half a dozen users working with the product in a way we consider stable, the scalability is in question."
"Automatic updating is pretty rough. It doesn't give me as much control as I had in the past."
"We are not satisfied with technical support. Some improvements might be required."
"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."
"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."
"VMware Workspace ONE can improve in virtual reality. Customers are now looking toward virtual reality devices. Though it supports virtual reality, it's treated as an Android device. Customers want to deal with VR devices, they want a specific VR tool. Not an Android device VR tool."
"Setup is not too complex."
"We have experienced some connectivity issues in that the application in VMware is very slow compared to SecureX."
"I think the product could be improved by making it more independent; for now, it's very dependent on an active directory so that you could basically tie into us for A, B or some other IDP that they provide."
"In terms of pricing, this solution is definitely much more expensive compared to other solutions, like MobileIron or MaaS360 or any other product in the market."
"vIDM could be improved with the multi-tenant capabilities that VMware tends to offer—features like customization branding and the integration of the app catalog based on the branding. Since the integration has been at top-level OGs, you were not able to then do rebranding if you were required to use specific user groups to highlight specific applications. At the time, I was personally opening feature requests for these things. I haven't worked with the latest release, so I don't know if these features were already deployed or not."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"I would like to see some integration with native Microsoft products such as Anti-value."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are partners, so we receive some discount. However, from the customer's perspective, Microsoft Intune's pricing is competitive with non-Microsoft technology, and the price is good compared to other market competitors."
"The pricing is competitive, but it is not cheap."
"The price is very reasonable."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."
"Microsoft Intune's pricing is reasonable."
"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"Every customer used to purchase licenses based on their needs."
Information not available
"If you have a host of custom requirements (including licensing), make sure to set aside enough time for the initial setup because it can take up to a few weeks depending on how complex your environment is."
"Depending on the requirements of users, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product."
"The cost is a little bit high."
"I have no opinion about the pricing of the product."
"It's an expensive tool."
"VMware Workspace ONE is not cheap; it's quite expensive. However, in the end, they gave us a reasonable price."
"You should take out a dedicated license agreement of your MDM fleet and invest heavily in innovating in this space."
"Currently, the product is priced at around 50 USD."
