We can manage all aspects of our devices from a single console, easy to scale, and quick to deploy
Intune has many benefits from the Microsoft perspective. This solution can manage Windows 10 devices, app management, and provide security solutions. We don't need to worry about our network connection, and we'll be more secure with regular security patches and compliance. Since everything will be deployed through the internet and users will log in using the internet only, the risks have been mitigated. Security updates, security patching, and the application will be targeted from Intune. The location tracker will be available to track where the device is and the user's location. The user will be restricted from accessing certain applications using compliance policies. Conditional access policies will be based on the reason why the user needs access to the application. Microsoft Intune is one of the best products in the industry for managing Windows devices. The solution has more feature restrictions. The conditional access policies also eliminate the dependency on the on-prem network for the devices. The solution also manages our security settings and a lot of other beneficial features such as Microsoft Purview which gives us the compliance portion. We can manage all aspects of our device from a single console, including M365 services. This allows us to configure data classification types, such as public, private, internal, confidential, and highly confidential.

Offers reliability and efficiency to users
I use the solution in my company for reporting, software delivery, and patching. The tool is similar to SCCM The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it works like SCCM. The fact that it doesn't require on-premises infrastructure is one thing I like about Tanium XEM.…

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 most valuable feature is the UEM capabilities."
"It is a very helpful solution."
"Conditional access has helped us tailor and enforce our security policies in the mobile space."
"The most valuable feature is probably mobile device management. Small businesses are coming under greater scrutiny and requirements for compliance as time goes on. We don't have to worry about a VPN because we can manage these devices, control company data, and lock users out. If needed, we can remotely wipe devices and deadman-switch them."
"We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program."
"As an IT administrator, I appreciate Intune's ability to implement granular device-level policies for our organization's employees."
"The main advantage is that Intune performs its intended functions effectively."
"The solution's technical support is very responsive."
"The most valuable feature is the security policies."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the tracking of the devices."
"It was easy to use."
"It's a tool that can be managed in various departments."
"Workspace ONE has something like an orchestrator model that allows me to configure a set of steps to onboard new PCs, laptops, or tablets. So, it makes my work easy."
"The solution has very good documentation."
"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."
"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."
 

Cons

"In terms of what can be improved, I am looking for better enhancements regarding Apple management, not only on the mobile device, but also on the laptop."
"We need the capabilities of the Cloud Management Gateway (CMG) to be enhanced through Intune instead of Azure."
"There could be more competent processes and improvements in the policy space."
"Its configuration is fairly complicated. You have to do quite a bit of discovery to be able to deploy it for a customer. You have to ask them a lot of questions. So, its initial deployment is the biggest challenge. They should make it easier to deploy with the use of Wizards or something else. During the deployment stage, there could be profiles for the customers who are particularly wanting to use certain feature sets of Intune."
"Having a dedicated configuration server that assists in modifying the configuration service, and creating personalized structures, interfaces, and web services could enhance usability."
"Intune could add more Linux security features and more integration with on-prem devices. The application deployments can also be improved."
"We had an APNS certificate set to expire last week. We tried to renew it two days before it expired. We logged in to the APNS portal but could not find that certificate. We didn't know where it went. All the iOS devices stopped working. We contacted the Apple and Microsoft teams, and each blamed the other. This is something that Microsoft should take care of. Last week, we had so many escalations from high-profile users who couldn't access corporate data on their devices."
"There's a significant discrepancy in Intune pricing between tenants."
"There are some bugs in the product. The tool needs to improve in the area of reporting."
"The technical support could be improved."
"One thing VMware needs to improve is compatibility with different operating systems."
"Many of the features that exist in Active Directory do not exist in Identity Manager, which means that people depend on Active Directory."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite complex."
"They need a more flexible pricing model."
"We'd like more useful support."
"One of the things that I want them to improve on, if possible, is the management of Mac devices, MacBook Pro, for example. They do it, but they have scope for improvement, in my opinion. It's not that it's that bad, it just a small need."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing can be improved."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"The licensing costs we leave up to the customer and these vary from one to another."
"I rate Intune an eight out of ten for affordability. It's bundled with the 365 licensing, which is competitive overall."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"The cost is somewhat on the higher side, particularly when considering certain price points, especially in markets like India."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"There is a license needed for this solution and it is either included in one of the enterprise license agreements. Microsoft licensing is a mathematical institute, it could be quite complex. We tend to ask specialized organizations to research what the most profitable way it would be for us to use licenses in the organizations."
Information not available
"The license is paid annually."
"You should take out a dedicated license agreement of your MDM fleet and invest heavily in innovating in this space."
"Workspace ONE is on the higher end of the pricing band when compared to other players in the market."
"The solution is more expensive than Intune."
"Its pricing was okay for our company."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"We pay approximately $6.50 per user for the standard version. If you are paying for an enterprise license that includes VDI then it will cost approximately $25 per user on a monthly basis."
"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."
