Featured Reviews

Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Feature-rich, easy to use, and has responsive technical support
We are working on the proof of concept for both MobileIron and Workspace ONE. We are only testing MobileIron and Workspace ONE. After that, we will decide which device to use. Workspace ONE by VMware Similarly, we will use MobileIron as a mobile device management tool, allowing us to manage our endpoints remotely. So far, we have not had any issues with VMware, and we have resolved some, if not all, of the issues. I have been testing with VMware Workspace ONE for the same amount of time as MobileIron UEM, three weeks. We are using the latest version, and it is deployed on a public cloud. The cloud provider is VMware. I have also been working with Google Chrome. Google Workspace is an email production tool provided by Google. We don't have a firewall because we're in the cloud right now. We have no on-premises network and all of our systems are hosted in the cloud.

Offers reliability and efficiency to users
The real-time visibility offered by the product has impacted our company's IT operations, and I can say that it is a user-friendly or admin-friendly product. I recommend the product to others since it is a powerful solution. The product is reliable and efficient. The product vendors are helpful, and they try to engage with the customers and improve the product. In terms of the benefits offered by the product, it is a powerful tool where the vendor offers support to users. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Autopilot feature is fantastic. It is a Microsoft product, so it deals best with Microsoft operating systems, but it can integrate with iOS, Mac OS, Linux, and Android."
"As the solution is a software as a service, the scalability is unlimited."
"Once it is well integrated with the rest of the environment, it makes everything easy."
"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."
"The best part of Intune is device control. If we need to block a user from opening something in their organization's system, we can do it from Intune. If we want to restrict the movement of an organization's data to prevent users from copying the data into Outlook, WhatsApp, or their personal Gmail, we can limit that via Intune. It secures all corporate data."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"Intune has automated the deployment of patches and applications, which is more efficient and easier."
"Windows Autopatch is the most valuable because it removes the burden of patch management."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"The company provides great customer service."
"The products are quite good when they are operational."
"The solution's technical support is very responsive."
 

Cons

"There can be delays in the deployment of new policies."
"Not all technicians are knowledgeable of the Microsoft solution, so they have to work on that as well."
"There's a significant discrepancy in Intune pricing between tenants."
"The solution can have some compliance problems in general and the end-point user can bypass easily the company policies in Intune."
"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely be improved."
"Some enrollment features could be improved."
"I, as such, do not have any specific inputs or needs. However, there is always room for improvement when it comes to scalability."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with Apple."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti. The test team or the testing procedures are flawed because they release new versions with numerous basic issues."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
"There are some bugs in the product. The tool needs to improve in the area of reporting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft offers some licensing where it's included at no extra cost when customers are already using the licenses. In such a case, it's a really good value. If you have to buy the licensing for it, it's probably on par with other solutions. It isn't substantially more or less expensive. The great thing is that it is included in some of Microsoft's licensed packages. So, some customers don't have to spend additional money for it. Typically, most providers that support Intune do charge a management fee of some sort or some fee. Certainly, we're no exception."
"I liked the tool's pricing until P2 came into effect. I am unsure about the current value versus the cost of the new licensing model."
"Based on the features that it gives, it is cost-efficient. It is not necessarily on the expensive side of the scale. It provides a hefty number of features that any organization would want. It is in a good price range."
"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."
"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"I have no comment on pricing of the solution."
"Previously the price was $4 per month per user. Now it's $2.25 per user per month."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."
