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.

Easy to use and set up with easy mobile access to reports
The initial setup is quite straightforward and simple. It only takes one day to set up. At the time of SAP implementation, it's a part of the portfolio. It's a one-time activity that you have just implemented in your ERP boxes. After that, you have to install a mobile application on Android or iOS, and you can use your user ID and password credentials, and you can access your reports. Once it's installed, you only need one IT person to align things. It doesn't take a big team. They can generate and change reports as necessary. If you need to change certain things, you need an SAP developer. There is no admin team requirement, and you can access it from anywhere.

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

"It's very informative when there is an error. It allows us to backtrace where the error is and resolve that ourselves. It's a bit of a Swiss Army penknife. We find that it fixes most issues."
"The Autopilot feature is the most valuable because it saves significant time on managing devices. We can ship devices globally, and users can set them up on their own. It's convenient."
"We have found the solution is capable of scaling."
"I rate Intune 10 out of 10."
"Intune's most valuable features are its device management capabilities, particularly its centralized integration with other Microsoft stack components."
"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."
"The most valuable feature for us is the security, including risk analysis and patch management."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"Everything is available to you from your handset."
"Remote management is most valuable. It allows you to manage multiple types of devices. It is not just limited to laptops or desktops. You can also manage IoT devices. If a device is lost or stolen, you can easily take control of the device without letting any information get leaked."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"A very easy to use solution."
"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."
"The remote management and location capabilities are good."
"If an end-user has an issue with a device, the administration has the ability to remote access the device after approval from the end-user."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Workspace ONE is its reliability."
"It is a stable solution. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The solution requires Mac support."
"We need the capabilities of the Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) to be enhanced through Intune instead of Azure."
"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"
"Could benefit from user having more control over devices."
"I would like Intune to natively support easier report generation. This improvement would enable less experienced staff to run reports more efficiently without relying on additional tools or functions."
"One issue that Inutune can improve is password integration with the BitLocker key option. Another issue is assigning licenses. We can assign the licenses for some users on the BPM side, and our BPS users work on Outlook 365 but cannot access it there. A BPS person can go to the company portal and download Outlook 2016. They could improve the NDIS part to assign a license directly to the BPS person that allows them to install the Intune device manager directly on our system."
"Intune lags all of its competitors in terms of report generation."
"The worst aspect is the reporting."
"We would like it if SAP could integrate the transactional mode as well so that users can perform transactional jobs by mobile-only."
"There are other solutions that might be better for certain use cases. This is not an all-purpose solution."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need for discounts to be offered by the solution since it is something that any organization can expect from the product."
"I'd like to see more integration capabilities in future releases."
"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."
"In terms of the inventory management side, as in the invoice management, the stock management and the entire inventory of an organization is lagging a bit in comparison to Blackberry or other EMM solutions."
"The product's stability for certain instances needs improvement."
"There are some bugs that our team needs to work around. It required some API integration required because visitor integration was not there. For example, we are currently working on a tunnel issue, and VMware doesn't have this solution."
"Many of the features that exist in Active Directory do not exist in Identity Manager, which means that people depend on Active Directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."
"It is reasonable for the features it has."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"Even if they charge a premium, they aim to provide equal value."
"If you ask the accountant or the finance department, they'll tell you that it is way too expensive, but when I look at the cost and compare it with the value you actually get, it's more than fair."
"The product is offered as part of a Microsoft standard bundle. The pricing can be competitive to Airwatch, and Maas360."
"I have no comment on pricing of the solution."
"The solution is cost-efficient."
Information not available
"The pricing and licensing are affordable. They are not too high."
"For the moment, we have a multi-year contract, meaning that we cannot go with a different solution at this time even if the price should prove more favorable."
"For big users, it's around $500."
"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."
"VMware Workspace ONE has a yearly license. You have to buy the license for one year at a time."
"It's definitely a bit on the expensive side. It is more for smaller organizations and not large, massive enterprises. I am not sure about any additional costs. As far as we could tell, the billing was what the billing was."
"The price of VMware Workspace ONE is reasonable."
"The solution can be costly when the customer is dealing with multiple platforms. If a customer is only dealing with iOS, Windows, and Android then Intune is the better choice because there are free licenses."
