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.
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

"The solution offers very good integration with broader enterprise systems and allows companies to capitalize on costs, especially if they are a Microsoft shop."
"Intune's unified endpoint management platform is invaluable."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"Autopilot is a feature I really like."
"Microsoft Tech Support is good, providing solid support."
"Previously, SCCM was used as an on-premise solution for clients, but now they are moving to Microsoft Intune as a cloud solution with better security and functions."
"If a client is using a lot of Microsoft, it's a great product to have."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that we are able to send application deployments and certifications for conditional access."
"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."
"The performance is good, and it is easy to configure."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is the support for multiple devices. Not only iOS, and Android, but all kinds of platforms, including VR device management. Additionally, it has a tunneling feature, which no other solution provides. Other solutions have to integrate with other tools to have this functionality, whereas VMware Workspace ONE has its own application gateway tunnel."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is the User Experience Designer, which has been very helpful for our project."
"The contained browser is a good feature."
"Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"Customer Service: Excellent customer service. Technical Support: Excellent technical support."
 

Cons

"Microsoft Intune could enhance its patch management for various devices, ensuring regular updates and tracking of device privileges."
"I would like to see better integration with Microsoft. There are a few things I can still do with Jamf that I am unable to do with Intune yet."
"Intune should improve the management of non-Microsoft devices. It would be better to manage Mac, Android, and other non-Microsoft operating system devices within the same Intune interface."
"Almost every day during the initial deployment, I would chat with technical support for solutions. They did not give me a suitable solution to solve the false positive alarms."
"I, as such, do not have any specific inputs or needs. However, there is always room for improvement when it comes to scalability."
"Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"Automatic updating is pretty rough. It doesn't give me as much control as I had in the past."
"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."
"The length of time it takes to deploy an application could improve."
"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."
"I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features."
"We used tech support but they have room for improvement."
"We'd like to see a better connection to Microsoft Azure and a better connection with Check Point."
"Support is absolutely horrible. If I was not escalating through the account team that I've got, I would have practically no support on it whatsoever."
"The only downside to the solution is that the dashboard is very confusing."
"The database gets corrupted when used in the cluster. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The E5 license is expensive."
"If you're subscribing to Premium or E3, there are no additional costs for Intune, it's included."
"We have the business premium licenses for the solution."
"With our standard E5 agreement with Microsoft, there have been no pricing concerns. Introductory professional services, like a fast-track service, were included with our E5 membership, and there have been no additional costs."
"Microsoft Intune's costliness stems from licensing fees and the overhead associated with its management, user experience, and device remediation."
"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"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."
Information not available
"Our organization has stopped using the solution because it was expensive."
"Pricing is an area that could be improved."
"The solution is more expensive than Intune."
"VMware Workspace ONE has a yearly license. You have to buy the license for one year at a time."
"If you purchase it for one year, it is very expensive. If you get it for three years or up to five years, then you can bargain a better price."
"For the moment, we have a multi-year contract, meaning that we cannot go with a different solution at this time even if the price should prove more favorable."
"The solution runs at roughly around $36/user for a year."
"The license is paid annually."
