Centralized endpoint security has improved and supports hybrid work and BYOD policies
Regarding what I dislike about Microsoft Intune and its downsides, I would say that more Mac controls are needed because we have limited Mac and Linux control. When comparing controls and policies between Windows, Mac, and Linux, Windows has almost everything you can think of, while Mac and Linux have limited types of control. You cannot implement certain things on Mac and Linux that you can on Windows. The limited controls are a major issue. Additionally, if Microsoft could find a way to embed servers into Microsoft Intune, that would be beneficial. Microsoft Intune is not really designed for servers or Windows servers. It is more tailored towards Windows 11 and Windows 10 operating systems. Windows servers are not fully supported. Enterprise organizations usually have both servers and endpoints, which are users' workstations. For servers, most people look for other solutions such as SCCM, which is Configuration Manager. However, SCCM is what Microsoft Intune is trying to replace. Both SCCM and Microsoft Intune belong to Microsoft. Microsoft is trying to transition organizations into Microsoft Intune, the native cloud solution. However, because this update is still in process, servers are not fully compatible with Microsoft Intune and cannot be managed by it. The current policy that has emerged from issues with clients is what they call co-management, which is relatively new, and I do not know if adoption is significant. Many legacy or older customers who have been using these products for decades still have SCCM. When it is time for them to manage their Windows devices, they use what is called cloud attach. Cloud attach is a term whereby your SCCM is connected to your Microsoft Intune. Most people do not know about it, but I have deployed it for several organizations. Cloud attach and co-management work together so that your device is in SCCM, but some policies are pushed from Microsoft Intune. It is like two different solutions working hand in hand. That is what they call co-management. Microsoft Intune does not bring all of your endpoint and security management tools into one place, which is the goal and how it should be. However, as I mentioned, servers are not included. If we talk about end users, Microsoft Intune does bring all your devices together. In a typical enterprise environment, you have end users with workstations, laptops, company-issued phones, and bring your own devices. You can create policies for all of these. However, for the backend, your servers do not have much coverage. Servers are not really covered by Microsoft Intune in that way.

Easy setup and effective support
I am with the company that sells LogMeIn Rescue. So, we engage with end customers, enterprise customers, manufacturing customers, BFSI customers, and healthcare customers. We try to find their use cases and provision our solution accordingly. For instance, if someone is in manufacturing and wants…

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance
I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Intune makes our organization more secure and flexible. We can onboard new employees faster and more securely. We are a governmental organization with strict regulations, and Intune helps us comply with those requirements."
"I have no issues with the scalability and ability to expand Microsoft Intune."
"We saw a strong return on investment with Microsoft Intune, as it reduced the time spent on device provisioning, software deployment, and security policy management through automation and centralized control while also enabling faster onboarding for new devices, improved compliance management, and lower operational overhead for the IT team by reducing the need for manual device configuration and support."
"The core management feature in Intune is invaluable to us, especially considering the challenges we often face with System Center when pushing external updates."
"We are transforming our flat network by adopting different cloud solutions, and our own applications are hosted in the cloud. Intune ensures our security throughout our entire cloud-based system, improving our security posture."
"The cloud base is perfect for me."
"For our office workers who are not based in Norway, when we order the PC, we can do some of the settings for them. These are standardized settings. We can set them up exactly as they are in Norway so that they're the same."
"The feature of remotely wiping devices in Microsoft Intune is what I prefer the most."
"​Our favorite feature is being able to diagnose customers' problems by seeing them on the screen, rather than just over the phone."
"Before we were using this, everything either had to be in-person, or one computer at a time, and this has allowed us to access multiple computers, share between technicians, and support everybody inside and outside our company simultaneously."
"It will save them a ton of man-hours and downtime if they invest in this software, because again, it's very easy to use, it's very efficient."
"The desktop sharing allows our clients to demonstrate the issue they are having, and then allows us to provide remediation directly."
"I tried different software out there and LogMeIn Rescue has the best compatibility. Something else might work, but you have conflict with so many networks. LogMeIn has the best ratio of almost 99% connection. Whereas, with some other software, you are lucky if you get 80%."
"It has a feature that, when you take over the machine, you can get into the system administrator level. We’re able to tweak things on the machine as if we’re sitting there."
"It is very straightforward to set up, use, install, and transfer sessions."
"LogMeIn is a remote tool that I use for remote solutions."
"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The SOS Support is a most valuable feature, as we have remote access from our phone, there is no need to install the software, and we can do it on the cloud."
"With the extended license, it's easy to be remote."
"In contrast, Splashtop is a really good product and it's not so expensive."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"The solution is very fast."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
 

Cons

"However, there are some areas that need improvement, such as the troubleshooting part, which could be simpler."
"Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation."
"In the future, I would like to see improvements in Microsoft Intune, especially related to policies and GPU."
"Customer service used to be better, but as we are nearing the end of the contract, the focus on investing in us as a customer has diminished. It is what one would expect in such a situation."
"Sometimes I am able to see latency or something which cannot be justified, but overall, since it is a cloud solution, maybe there is latency."
"The interface is easy, but it is not user-friendly when evaluating the overall user experience of Microsoft Intune."
"We are facing issues with Apple products. With macOS and iOS, there are some difficulties with the updates because we cannot get full control of Apple products. In the case of Windows, it is fine, but in the case of Apple, we have some difficulties. We cannot control everything through Intune."
"Microsoft Copilot in Microsoft Intune is absolutely useless for protecting my environment."
"You should be able to remote on an iPhone like you remote on an Android. It is not the same experience. Unless you are very savvy on iOS, you are pretty much lost.​"
"They need to improve their technical support."
"Nothing's perfect but I think it's really a great tool just the way it is. The suggestion that I made to them at their user advisory board is that they combine the two products, Rescue and Central, into one because you really should have both. A bunch of the other people in that meeting very much liked that."
"Support to remotely control more mobile devices' screens is desperately needed. It is sad to see how long this product has been out and how many phones are still not supported for, specifically, remote screen control."
"The billing team was poor when fixing their billing mistake and customer service was missing in action."
"I do wish there was an application to manage all of the admin properties of the subscription, rather than having to use the web portal."
"As a whole, I am still a little disappointed with the mobile side of it."
"For our company, great features, but too expensive."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The integration features could be better."
"I'm not sure if I can recommend the solution as I'm not sure if it's a fit for me."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is pretty reasonable. We have difficulty with Azure, which is probably why we have not put many assets in Azure. Everything we put there is very expensive."
"We have a limited budget for security investments, so Microsoft should consider reducing pricing in our region. This would make investment more viable, especially since larger businesses in other countries can afford it easily."
"I would rate the price a four out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"The E5 license is expensive."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."
"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."
"The clients pay for a license and each can have a different type of license, such as an E3 or E5."
"It is ​on the medium to high side. For us, it is worth it. For the amount of time they save us, it pretty much pays for itself.​"
"Pricing is reasonable and easily offsets other costs, while resolving issues in a much quicker timeframe."
"The pricing is worth the value."
"I did look into a couple of other products, TeamViewer in particular, at one point. The price point of Rescue, compared to some of the other things that are in the marketplace right now, is high. But it's what I would call the "Cadillac" of the industry."
"While LogMeIn Rescue is a great product and a leader in the industry, it's way pricey. Price is the most negative thing about LogMeIn Rescue."
"The pricing is a little on the higher side, though.​"
"The only downside is pricing. I think each technician license is somewhere around $100 or $120 a month now. So if you have a lot of technicians, it can get expensive, for a small business."
"Look at the different plans they have. Do not pay for a plan you do not need.​"
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
