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 management simplifies software distribution and patch management
From the features perspective, distribution packages is the best feature in the Ivanti Endpoint Manager. We create tasks for patching or distributing software, appliances, or MSA files and schedule them. We create repair groups, push appliances, create drives, and map shared drives to distribution packages. It distributes the groups included in those packages across our entire network. It is easy to deploy appliances or applications, including OS to workstations within a single click. We can see any missing patches or vulnerabilities. It is very useful for troubleshooting and identifying patches, whether missing or installed. I would suggest including an option to manage multiple clients in future releases. For example, as a managed service provider, if I use Ivanti Endpoint Manager for one client, can I deploy or use the same server to manage other clients or multiple sites or region clients? That feature would be beneficial for managing multiple domains within a single appliance.

Streamline enrollment with seamless security and integration while technical support improves
Integration is required first. Samsung Knox needs to be configured initially. Once configured for the first time, the process becomes simplified. For example, in our client's case, they ship Samsung Galaxy devices directly to employees. When the end user receives the device, they simply open the box and attempt to enroll by entering their username and password. No additional steps are required beyond that. There are very few questions asked. Once authentication is completed, the user can proceed without selecting many options. The system directly logs in, and the user receives apps pushed by the console. It is also integrated from the MDM. Certain apps are pushed to employees for their use. This ensures the work profile remains secure.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Remote control is the feature I like the most, as I can take control of devices so that we can work hands-on and create access with access restrictions."
"The most valuable features in Microsoft Intune for me are application deployment, Defender deployment, and asset management."
"I particularly appreciate the administration and security features, which can be deployed easily."
"I like how Intune brings everything into one place. For example, you can set up conditional access to applications and devices inside Intune. I also like the segregation inside the Intune devices. You can segregate them by Windows, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Android. You can sort it by platform, so you don't need to go into the devices section."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"It is a helpful tool to manage BYOD policies."
"The overall user experience is quite nice. I have no complaints from end users regarding their devices enrolled in Intune."
"The interface is intuitive for administrators to understand patching, package creation, deployment, troubleshooting, remote access, and PowerShell scripting automation."
"Ivanti is a great product from a security perspective."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10."
"The product saves time and money."
"The most beneficial aspect of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it is cost-friendly."
"The most beneficial aspect of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it is cost-friendly."
"The best feature that Ivanti Endpoint Manager offers is remote desktop management, which allows viewing a user's screen."
"What I appreciate most about Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it's easy to enroll the device, the patch is very impressive, and the patching part of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is much easier compared to InTune, where in InTune, you have to create the app deployment, but Ivanti Endpoint Manager makes it much easier to update any patch, patch updates, and application updates."
"Based on my experience and understanding, Samsung Knox is quite good, user-friendly, and top-notch."
"One portal for all the features and the remote support capability in Samsung Knox is highly valued. The enterprise editions and the free Knox Suite licenses for one year are also beneficial."
"Samsung Knox functions as a UEM (User Endpoint Management); for IT professionals, certain features help save time, and we enable IT professionals and technical teams of organizations by training them, handling deployments, and assisting with troubleshooting when needed."
"Samsung Knox is doing excellent work with its current offerings."
"Samsung Knox has good support for data protection, especially when using devices for profile installations, firmware updates, or configuration suites, as they are all data protected with a double layer of protection using our own MDM server alongside Samsung Knox services."
"It's a very good product that any organization can use to help manage their devices."
"It's a very good product that any organization can use to help manage their devices."
"Overall, I would rate the solution as a 10."
 

Cons

"Certificate management within Microsoft Intune's Suite is still under development. It's not very reliable compared to other certificate tools, though it has made good progress within a couple of years."
"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."
"Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation."
"In terms of the admin experience, it is straightforward, but the Windows enrollment experience could be improved. Sometimes, for enrollment, we have to reset devices and re-enroll them."
"One big problem with Microsoft is that they're changing the names of the products quite often, or they're quite consistently doing so. Constantly switching the user interface or the administrative interface makes it quite hard to keep pace."
"From my level of analysis, the feature I would prefer to see added to Microsoft Intune is extensive support. Anything that helps to diagnose the problem and solve it would be useful."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business."
"From a new user's perspective, it may be a little overwhelming because there are quite a few things to look at in the console, however, once you are sort of acclimated and are familiar with your core functions, it's fairly simple and straightforward."
"The product's implementation process is in areas of concern where improvements are required."
"Setting up the solution on-premises is difficult and needs improvement."
"Ivanti Endpoint Manager is not user-friendly and feels outdated, which affects usability."
"Despite the good features, I would suggest improvements in the console interface of the Ivanti Endpoint Manager as it appears outdated, reminiscent of the early 2000s."
"Improvements could be made in creating collections and enhancing patch packaging."
"When it comes to the reporting part, it needs to be improved. The executive reports and the deployment reports can be more improvised."
"They should create instructional videos for every feature such as software management and patch management to help beginners who are new to Ivanti Endpoint Manager."
"The reporting functionality and user interface could be improved. The options to generate reports should be more dynamic rather than static."
"The main drawback is that they need to expand this product beyond Samsung devices to include every device."
"The main drawback is that they need to expand this product beyond Samsung devices to include every device."
"We faced multiple issues when pushing configuration profiles and policies through Samsung Knox. The students were cracking the entire system."
"Features like private DNS would be very useful if pushed through Knox Manage."
"Samsung Knox needs to expand customer features across all devices, not just Samsung devices."
 

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."
"Intune is included with our F3 and E5 licenses."
"Every customer used to purchase licenses based on their needs."
"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."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"Generally, we get favorable discounts, so it's not too bad. Obviously, we're looking at decreasing those wherever we can to bring value back to the public purse because it's all charity based. It's all publicly funded."
"I don't have any problem as far as cost is concerned. It is bundled with our license."
"Microsoft Intune's pricing is reasonable."
