Collaboration Support Engineer at a retailer with 11-50 employees
Centralized device management has transformed security and streamlined remote provisioning
One area where Microsoft Intune can improve is the user interface. Sometimes the portal feels a bit complex and not very intuitive, especially for new users, and it can take time to find specific settings. Another point is troubleshooting. While logs are available, the diagnostic policies and sync issues can still be time-consuming and not very straightforward. I also feel that reporting could be more detailed and customizable. The built-in reports are helpful, but for deeper insights, I often need to rely on additional tools. Overall, it is a strong solution, but improving usability and troubleshooting experience would make it even better. While Microsoft Intune works very well within the Microsoft ecosystem, the integration of some third-party tools could be smoother and require less customization. Support is another area that could improve, as sometimes response times can be slow, and resolving complex issues may take longer than expected. In terms of features, I think more advanced automation and built-in remediation options would be helpful since common issues can be fixed automatically without manual intervention.

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 helps us manage user certificates."
"The most valuable features are the ones that make sure that the deployment is of a standard operating system and the Zero Touch deployment, which is very useful, allowing users to have an out of box experience."
"I like the tool's integration with Apple. Anyone who creates an ID in Intune will get an Apple ID."
"Microsoft Intune is a good solution and it is purely based on Azure cloud, so I can use all the benefits of Azure cloud in Microsoft Intune and several good features in Microsoft Intune to manage devices."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager's patch management has been the most helpful to us."
"It is more efficient to have one solution rather than having security parts spread across three, four, or five solutions."
"Implementing Microsoft Intune is easy."
"The automatic patching is the most valuable feature of Intune."
"It's very easy to use."
"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."
"The solution has a lot of capabilities, and it is easy to manage and customize."
"For me, the integration of AirWatch with various enterprise components is something I like. The way they are partnering with various services, like security services, or some of the big guys like Google, Android, Apple, and including Microsoft; that's really awesome. And the way they look at providing functionality to create self-service and automation, that's really usefully and beneficial. That's where I see they differentiate themselves."
"The platform makes the mobile device management process straightforward to handle."
"The solution's single plane of glass approach is beneficial. The endpoint management is very good and specific. One of their competitors is Intune, and you have leaks from other services within the Microsoft ecosystem."
"The most valuable feature is the security policies."
"The contained browser is a good feature."
"I would rate the stability as eight out of ten."
"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 interface can be a bit complex to set up initially, so a simpler interface would really help."
"Microsoft Intune is not user-friendly to manage and has room for improvement."
"I would like to see Intune improve its handling of hybrid domain joins. We continue to experience issues with machines losing their hybrid domain join status."
"We've faced significant pushback with Copilot as our clients aren't seeing a favorable cost-benefit analysis."
"One thing that could be better in Microsoft Intune is the file size, as it is quite large at times."
"There is improvement needed in integrating with the installed Office solutions versions, such as Office 2019. The Office 365 integrates without a problem."
"There needs to be more support for Mac operating systems."
"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 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."
"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."
"Another concern is that support is getting reduced by Workspace ONE; some customers are saying there are support issues on Workspace ONE right now."
"Customer Service: With Enterprise Service agreement it is a 5/10. Without Enterprise Service agreement it is a 3/10."
"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."
"The length of time it takes to deploy an application could improve."
"There should be better compatibility with Linux devices."
"Pricing is the only challenge right now. The licensing fee should be simplified a little bit."
"The Content Locker cannot inherit permissions for the Windows Public Folder. If they could integrate with Microsoft on this point, it would be the perfect functionality."
"One of the things that I want them to improve on, if possible, is the management of Mac devices, MacBook Pro, for example."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's affordable. In comparison to the competitors, the price depends on what features you need from Intune, but it's affordable. There are no hidden costs, but there are some features that go for a premium price. Those are the add-ons for which you have to pay extra."
"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"I rate Intune five out of 10 for pricing. It's expensive."
"Even if they charge a premium, they aim to provide equal value."
"I have no comment on pricing of the solution."
"The pricing is competitive, but it is not cheap."
Information not available
"The pricing and licensing are affordable. They are not too high."
"The pricing currently is higher than the competition."
"For big users, it's around $500."
"The price of the solution is costly for the number of users I am using it for."
"The price of VMware Workspace ONE is expensive. However, for the features that are provided, the price is reasonable. There is a subscription to use the solution."
"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis."
"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."
"While it is not inexpensive in terms of price, it is definitely worth it."
