Collaborations engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees

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.

Great features with very good function management

Our customers are pretty happy with the product. It uploads files, creates a secure virtual compartment for corporate applications. If it's on-prem, you can use it with mobile phones or tablets that don't have access to the internet using intranet with wireless access points. That's a big plus for government institutions as it enables the management of a large fleet of devices without any outside interference. That is the most significant advantage.

The solution is stable, scalable, and offers single sign-on

I give the solution a nine out of ten. I suggest if a person wants to start using Workspace ONE, they should make use of the cloud instance instead of the on-premise instance. There is an on-premise instance available, but the cloud instance is a better option now. I advise them to make use of the cloud instance. This is because management-wise, there is no need to manage a server. For example, we don't need to buy a server, and we don't need to buy network switches, which are required for the on-premise. At the same time, I can advise setting up all the functionalities or whatever functionalities are available for the trial version. We need to check if the Workspace ONE integration includes Azure AD or other identity providers. A lot of applications are using these providers for authentication, such as Ping, Okta, and others. If the Workspace ONE integration doesn't include these providers, the company might have to find a different solution. Security projects should also be considered. Specifically, if the solution can integrate with local security solutions to secure mobile devices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Users can make screenshots, and devices only need the minimal version of iOS."

"Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune."

"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."

"We are a remote company, and the product helps us manage the global endpoints. It helps us natively manage the endpoints in the cloud from anywhere."

"The security-related tools are excellent; these features allow us to secure devices, lock them down, and ensure compliance."

"Intune's most valuable features are the device, compliance, and configuration policies."

"Autopilot is a great feature. Most users are looking for a zero-touch deployment."

"Maturity makes it a stable product."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"Can manage a large fleet of devices without any outside interference."

"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"

"It seems highly stable and scalable."

"The most valuable feature is the interface with SCAP, which is the Security Content Automation Protocol."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it enables us to remotely manage the devices, which is its purpose, and to push applications to the mobile devices from the portal."

"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."

"Sometimes, we face an issue and raise a ticket. The technical support team is fantastic and resolves the issue."

"The remote management and location capabilities are good."

"The feature that we find most valuable is the corporate email pushing."

More Workspace ONE UEM pros

Cons

"The security features should be improved."

"Intune should improve its software inventory to provide better metering of which software is used throughout the company. This is especially needed for reporting third-party software solutions."

"A major challenge is making all the products work within device management solutions like Intune. It would be beneficial if Microsoft removed support for older products much earlier in the process."

"The reporting dashboard is really limited."

"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely be improved."

"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"

"Intune's third-party patch management could be better. It should be easier for the average system admin to keep non-Microsoft applications updated."

"Intune should be much more granular in terms of supporting more Android cellular devices."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"Lacks a factory reset feature."

"I'd like to see expanded device support, particularly for IoT things like SCADA devices."

"I prefer to work with Jamf Pro because it is more specific to working with the iPad features."

"When it comes to deployment and maintaining security, there should be an integrated console where you have a singular view of all of the products from the same OEM."

"VMware Workspace ONE platform offers support for Mac Books and we see that there is some room for improvement in that area versus all the products out there."

"We're unhappy with the quality of support we get for it. We're unhappy with how upgrades occur, so we are migrating away from it. We have an on-premise AirWatch solution and for us to do upgrades we have to call AirWatch to be able to perform the upgrades. They're busy, and scheduling it is not timely enough for us."

"The reverse proxy is not intuitive and it takes time to get it right, so this is something that can be improved."

"We have a lot of problems when it comes to integrating with Active Directory."

"The solution needs to adapt to the cloud based reality of the current world model. Some customers may have reluctance to this, but it is the next level for all of the big providers. Azure, AWS and Google are all on the forefront of cloud-based solutions."

More Workspace ONE UEM cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the license and the features are justified for myself as a technical person."

"While Microsoft Intune boasts a wide range of features, its user-friendliness and bundled licensing cost are key considerations for me."

"The price of Intune is often included as part of a bundle with other Microsoft licenses, which makes it somewhat cheaper."

"For organizations that are a Microsoft shop, the pricing is compelling."

"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."

"The product is expensive."

"Licensing depends on how you are providing support to your enterprise, whether it's device-based or user-based."

"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

Information not available

"The license is paid annually."

"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."

"Depending on the requirements of users, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product."

"Our organization has stopped using the solution because it was expensive."

"It is quite expensive, but I think large companies have agreements with these organizations that provide remote monitoring for phones, and they get massive discounts. The public price does not reflect what they pay. You won't get the same pricing if you're buying for 10 employees versus 1,000 employees. On the public price, you get perhaps a 10% discount, but if you're buying 1,000, the discount could be really massive, especially if you signed a contract for a number of years."

"My guess is that its licensing was yearly. There was probably no fee in addition to the standard licensing fee."

"VMware Workspace ONE is expensive."

"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."

Reviews from Real Users

Below is some feedback from our PeerSpot users who are currently using the solution:

PeerSpot user Patrick B., Cybersecurity Architect at a tech services company, says, "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."

Roshan T., Partner Manager North America at a tech company, mentions how satisfied he is with the product, saying, "You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
