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.

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 thing I appreciate most about Microsoft Intune is that the management of the devices was very simplified."
"It is user-friendly, and the performance is also good. It is a convenient product"
"The Microsoft Windows Autopilot and Defender policies are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The best features in Microsoft Intune that I appreciate most are its centralized features."
"One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Intune is that it brings the management of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and even Linux under a single pane of glass."
"The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."
"If I assess Intune's user experience, I would say it is perfect and simple."
"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."
"It has improved the way our organization functions; it provides security, and if an employee loses his or her phone or someone steals it, the data on the phone itself is secured because you can just centrally disable everything, so you only lose the device but not the data."
"The standard features and securities are packed with flexibilities to enable and disable in accordance with the customer’s business operational process and IT Helpdesk process."
"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."
"Cloud-based VMware Workspace ONE is very good; it is easy to deploy and manage, and maintenance is also quite simple."
"The most valuable feature is the security policies."
"VMware is the better solution versus other things that are out there."
"The initial setup is easy and the deployment doesn't take too long."
"The antivirus and the ability to push security policies down to the device are key features."
 

Cons

"The feature that allows us to import the business application from the configuration manager to Intune is not very good at this time."
"The most significant challenge is reporting and monitoring. The reporting accuracy for deploying applications and all aspects of Intune needs to be improved."
"I rate Microsoft support four out of 10. Support is one area where Microsoft needs to improve a lot. I recently raised a ticket for a Microsoft Azure issue, and it took two and a half weeks for support to reply. They need to improve support across their entire catalog of products."
"Installing software in Microsoft Intune can be challenging if it is not already prepackaged."
"Sometimes, it takes time to synchronize the policies between the portal and the devices, you don't have a way to estimate how long it will take to deploy. You have some kind of gray area, where it can deploy in 30 minutes or three days."
"Microsoft Intune could improve in reporting data for endpoints and fleets. Enhanced capabilities to run queries and gather specific device data to identify trends or issues would be beneficial. The feature parity for MacOS and handling devices from an MDM perspective is not comprehensive. Consolidation of these functionalities within Intune would simplify processes and finances."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Intune could be enhanced by automating application upgrades, similar to how it automates operating system upgrades."
"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."
"The packaging of the solution or the offering of Hexnode UEM could be improved or enhanced, because one package does not fit all."
"We'd like the customization to be better."
"The console comes bunched together as a package and inbuilt. Its called Workspace ONE. Whenever we have an issue, we contact the service provider, and instead of a fix, we are just getting the next version of Workspace ONE."
"They do have a good integration, but there is a long way to go as far as integration is concerned. They need to integrate with the cloud solutions a little bit more. We are looking for Azure integration."
"Technical support needs to be more responsive to our requests."
"The location service could improve and more integration with other devices, such as Android enterprise and Apple devices."
"The portal is not user-friendly."
"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."
"I would like to see some integration with native Microsoft products such as anti-value."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is quite okay. I wish they provide certain additional features with the same license."
"There is a license required to use this solution. However, it was part of a bundle package. Microsoft Intune is far less expensive than other solutions, such as Workspace ONE."
"We work with the subscription rather than a server license. I think it's economical this way because we don't have to have a server license for that, and I think that works in our favor."
"Cost is not my department, but the product is included in the E5 license that we already pay for every user, so no additional cost is incurred."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"The pricing is competitive, but it is not cheap."
"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."
"Microsoft Intune costs about $7 per user per month, which is somewhat on the pricier end. That said, it's a reliable product, so it's fair."
Information not available
"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 big users, it's around $500."
"It's a highly affordable solution"
"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."
"In some cases, a customer may feel the solution is expensive."
"We pay approximately $6.50 per user for the standard version. If you are paying for an enterprise license that includes VDI then it will cost approximately $25 per user on a monthly basis."
"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."
"Currently, the product is priced at around 50 USD."
