Affordable, secures all devices, and helps users to access corporate resources from anywhere
The deployment model for Intune is cloud basically, but for other MDM solutions, it's on-prem because the government and healthcare sectors prefer to use the on-prem solution. The deployment duration depends on the project timeline and the complexity of the deployment. A fresh Intune deployment is straightforward. We just need to do the configuration and create configuration profiles. For example, for Windows OS, we can enroll 1,000 devices in a month or something like that depending on the availability of the machine. Everything is configured in the backend, so they just need to power on the device, and everything works as expected, and everything is pushed down. The number of people required depends on how many machines need to be deployed and users' availability. The model that we're having right now is that for a new device, it's straightaway delivered to the user. So, there is no involvement of IT because it's an autopilot deployment. When a user powers on a device, the configuration kicks in. The users just log in using their user accounts, and that's all. So, one IT person is enough to configure the backend.

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.

Secure and integrates well but needs better customization
The initial setup was not complicated. There may be a bit of difficulty in connecting all the components together. However, I have a year of experience, so, for me, it wasn't hard. It gets easier with time. Likely in five more years, it will be even simpler to deploy. I had some additional documentation as well that helped. The deployment itself took about one month. That is a typical timeframe. Our strategy was to mainly manage all tablets and mobile devices from a single platform. Our main strategy was to connect all devices and be able to track them in case they were stolen or they were losing data. With this solution, we are able to set up and manage everything centrally.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."
"The Microsoft Windows Autopilot and Defender policies are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"The one feature we find most useful is the Mobile Application Manager. There are two types, we have the complete MDM and the Mobile Application Manager(MAM). We don't give our users phones, it is their own personal phone, and we need to allow them to have access to the company detail on their phone. We need to create a balance between their own personal data and the company data. We deploy the Mobile Application Manager for them so that we won't be able to interfere with their own personal data."
"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."
"Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"The stability of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The company provides great customer service."
"The most valuable feature is that everything is in one place, which makes it easy to manage."
"The most valuable features of MobileIron UEM are tunneling and enterprise integration."
"The user interface is user-friendly."
"It's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is its reliability."
"We can impose cybersecurity requirements."
"Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."
"If an outside person tries to track or hack information, it is not possible without us being notified."
"It has good stability."
"Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue."
"The single sign-on feature, which integrates with the Identity Manager is one of the most vital features."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
 

Cons

"The reporting and cost have room for improvement."
"Once it's configured it is unobtrusive, but it does take some hands-on to configure and deploy it properly."
"I wanted to check if there is any provision at the Intune level to restrict certain things, such as a website, but unfortunately, that feature is available only in Microsoft Defender. Intune has web filtering capabilities, but they are only useful for protection from malicious websites, whereas we would like to be able to restrict a website. For example, YouTube is a clean website. No one would identify it as a malicious website, but if we want to stop the end-users from going to that website, we have to go for another product, such as Microsoft Defender or another third-party proxy solution. It would be great if this capability is included in Intune."
"It's the granularity: 'Is your firewall on? Is BitLocker on?' It's not amazing granularity. But I've looked into other products, like Duo, and they're all similar."
"In the past, I raised some tickets for the enhancement feature, which was missing in Intune."
"Since GMS is unavailable in China, we currently rely on device administrator enrollment for managing Android devices there."
"I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product."
"The closest Microsoft Intune can be to GPOs, the better. There needs to be more granularity on application deployments. However, they have done better recently with the application deployments."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"The integration between the MobileIron and Advanced Neurons isn't completely in sync, and we're still working on that."
"The interface is complicated and not very easy to use."
"UI needs an upgrade, feels very outdated."
"MobileIron UEM could improve the monitoring of devices."
"The portal is not user-friendly."
"We have a lot of problems when it comes to integrating with Active Directory."
"They need a more flexible pricing model."
"The solution's pre-stage enrollment could be improved."
"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."
"The technical support could be improved."
"There is a need for better user lifecycle management within VMware Identity Manager, along with better user governance...The scalability of the product needs to improve."
"I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses."
"There is a license required to use the solution. If you're core users in Office 365, for example, you have Outlook email and E3 license, this is only email. You have to buy an EMS license to have Microsoft Intune. It is expensive."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"It is not a cheap solution. The price for a device when you start using it at a large scale can be improved. It is covered under our enterprise agreement. We pay once a year. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"Intune is available as an individual product, but it also comes with Office 365 Premium or an Enterprise license, and the price varies for each version."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"We don't get Intune as a separate module. Most of the time, we use it within an enterprise agreement like E3 or E5. Those licenses are at a good price, but what is annoying is that every single year they go higher."
"Its price is quite okay. I wish they provide certain additional features with the same license."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."
"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."
"Our organization has stopped using the solution because it was expensive."
"I think the pricing of the product needs advisement. It would be great to bundle the VM products together. I think the actual box itself should be included in the license. At present, it is not paired with the mobile device."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"Pricing is an area that could be improved."
"For big users, it's around $500."
"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."
"The pricing and licensing are affordable. They are not too high."
