Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Easy to deploy, but scalability needs improvement
There are no specific challenges I faced while using the product. I haven't used the solution to support any AI-driven projects. In our company, we need to have remote access to our labs because if not, people have to move to the laboratory, and we will spend a lot of time working. I don't know the features of VNC Connect that improved our company's support capabilities. I rate the tool a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"It helps us manage user certificates."
"Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms. You can individualize it for your company with the Intune Company Portal app."
"Stable solution at a good price."
"From my perspective, I appreciate the scalability in Microsoft Intune and the portal management, which is extremely intuitive and very simple to use."
"The automatic patch management feature in the Intune Suite is helpful."
"Easy to use."
"TeamViewer has been one of the easiest, right off the bat products, that we have employed at the college. We have had no issues. It's been one of the easiest solutions to pick up."
"Using TeamViewer for my personal clients has made things much better for me and my clients because my clients are happy to resolve a problem within seconds via TeamViewer."
"Ever since we have been using TeamViewer Business, because of how quick it is to connect to a user across the globe, we have been able to close tickets rapidly."
"I am satisfied with TeamViewer, and its performance."
"Nothing else compares to it at the same level."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ability for administrators to lock the remote systems, simple connections, and easy login access."
"This product is very simple to use and you can connect whether you are behind a firewall or not."
"The implementation process is simple."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"The product’s ease of use and security are valuable."
 

Cons

"The configuration could be better by consolidating options and making it simpler."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"Microsoft Intune has potential for improvement; I would like to see a lot more customization in the reporting tools."
"The solution's app deployment needs to be improved."
"The support is not very good. It's very poor."
"The add-ons must be integrated into the solution."
"Reliability is something that I feel there is a tad bit of concern. The only point is that we need to sync multiple times to get something pushed through."
"We are not satisfied with technical support. Some improvements might be required."
"They could give more information about using certain kinds of applications for secure transactions, such as secure file transfers."
"TeamViewer could work on performance latency in slower internet connections by optimizing screen refresh rates during remote sessions, especially when transferring large files or using graphics-heavy applications."
"It's not the program itself that's an issue, but there is a need for some better documentation on how to use the web portal Management Console."
"TeamViewer can improve connectivity. I had some problems connecting to my clients and now I use AnyDesk."
"We access the solution through a VPN, which improves our security. However, earlier this year, around the beginning of March, a CVE in the TeamViewer client allowed remote connections to other network systems, which was concerning. You could have unintentionally gained admin rights if you didn't update TeamViewer promptly. It's crucial to always keep it updated to prevent such issues. The tool should consider implementing two-factor authentication to improve such security holes. It should also integrate good security updates, which should be implemented automatically."
"There is a paid version of this solution with more features available. However, they should provide more free features to the user, such as factor authentication."
"I believe the graphical resolutions can be improved on the product, as apart from this, the product is very easy to use and easy on the eye."
"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
"Improvements are required in the area of scalability since it is an aspect of the tool where there are shortcomings."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
"Ease of access is a bit of a challenge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While I can't provide insights from a business perspective, it's worth noting that the pricing may differ significantly, and the discount we received might not be reflective of standard business rates."
"The price is very reasonable."
"Intune is linked with Microsoft. We can deploy the Microsoft E365 license to users by Intune. There are different types of licenses, such as device administrator licenses, E5 licenses for device enrollment manually, and P1 and p2 licenses for device enrollment automatically. These are the licenses required for the administration."
"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."
"The product is relatively pricey, but considering its benefits, I'd say it's fair. The benefits outweigh the expensive licensing fees, especially for large organizations, but medium-sized and smaller businesses may be unable to afford it."
"The price for Intune is fair."
"Microsoft licenses are costly."
"The cost is somewhat on the higher side, particularly when considering certain price points, especially in markets like India."
"The cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."
"TeamViewer has multiple licensing options."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"...it will cost you $1,500 to $1,600 a year, but when I think of how much work I do through TeamViewer..."
"It would be nice if it is cheaper."
"The solution has a pilot feature that is expensive. The overall price of the solution can be cheaper."
"The price was cheaper than what we were previously paying. At the time that we went with TeamViewer, we were using ShareConnect. The TeamViewer package was about half the cost and able to have a bigger number of users."
"I use the tool's free version."
"The tool is not cheap."
