I use Microsoft Intune for daily operational tasks such as device and onboarding, enrollment, adding new devices or mobiles using Autopilot or manual enrollment, policy management, application deployment, and user access control. These are my main use cases for Microsoft Intune in my day-to-day work. The main advantage of Microsoft Intune is that it does not require much time to prepare a single device for a single user. It usually takes twenty to thirty minutes, and no IT touch is needed for it.

Automated onboarding has reduced setup time and provides centralized control for all devices
Pros and Cons
- "Microsoft Intune impacts my organization positively by saving significant time via faster onboarding; there is no requirement for manual imaging or setup."
- "It can improve for new users; in the starting phase, we found that the logs are too complex or scattered."
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
A few best features according to me are that Windows Autopilot's zero-touch deployment stands out because we do not require any IT person to configure anything for the user base, along with centralized device management and application deployment. These are my best features.
The zero-touch deployment with Autopilot makes my life easier by allowing us to ship laptops directly to the user, where the user logs in via their mail, and the device automatically configures. For example, we have created policies according to the group, so we create a user on that group, and there is no need for manual imaging or complete setup, so it is done via zero-touch deployment.
For application deployment, we can deploy an application on hundreds of devices without touching the device, which helps me with massive operational efficiency. Access control is also a good example because we have created users based on a tier group, which helps me a lot.
Microsoft Intune impacts my organization positively by saving significant time via faster onboarding; there is no requirement for manual imaging or setup. It takes two to three hours per device manually, but via Autopilot, it is zero-touch deployment and takes thirty minutes for onboarding. Another aspect is centralized management; we have a single console for all devices, whether mobile or Windows, which reduces the dependency on on-site IT support and provides faster issue resolution.
What needs improvement?
I have not faced any significant issues until now, and Microsoft Intune is good. It can improve for new users; in the starting phase, we found that the logs are too complex or scattered.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Microsoft Intune for the last three years.

Before, we were using Active Directory on our on-premises network, so according to that, the cost is a little bit high. We did not use any solution previously before adopting Microsoft Intune.
How was the initial setup?
If we go manually, it usually takes two to three hours, but via Microsoft Intune, it usually takes twenty to thirty minutes per user. The on-site IT team can focus on other tasks.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is a little bit high.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We did not evaluate other options before choosing Microsoft Intune.
What other advice do I have?
If we go manually, it usually takes two to three hours, but via Microsoft Intune, it usually takes twenty to thirty minutes per user. The on-site IT team can focus on other tasks. I strongly advise others looking into using Microsoft Intune because of its features.

Intuitive tools and analytics accelerate security management and client trust
Pros and Cons
- "I mainly use Microsoft Intune analytics for taking that data that exists and bringing it into Power BI dashboards to make it visible to our clients, showing them all the operating systems in their environment and where the latest patches are, and then from there creating plans."
- "The insights, even though we're talking about charts and graphs, are super valuable to customers who might not otherwise know what's in their ecosystem or the current state of things within their ecosystem."
- "Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."
- "Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune."
What is our primary use case?
My Microsoft Intune use case does not involve custom packaging or PKI. I have deployed Microsoft Intune cloud for all of our endpoints, which includes laptops as well as our corporate-issued cell phones.
It's great for device management. Using hte Micorosoft Defender suite using some Intune features allows us to deploy those security tools a lot quicker than we would otherwise. Without Intune, you'd be running from machine to machine, or you could be issuing individual policies. You may have to create a task sequence in SCCM. All those things delay where our clients wanna get to, which is a safer, happier future, and Intune allows them to get there a little bit quicker.
How has it helped my organization?
Time to live - how fast can we move a client from a higher-risk state to a lower one, and how can InTune facilitate that. It's a great roadmap for deploying policies.
We're able to deploy security policies through it, it's essential towards our hardening, not just internally as a company, but for our clients.
What is most valuable?
Using Copilot in Microsoft Intune allows me to quickly search for devices that are most out of date that have a security feature about to expire or need patching to prevent their OS from becoming stale. It allows me to search for unwanted apps that might be installed. I can do that naturally in the user interface, but having that chatbot in the top right, especially if I'm not in Intune every day, is really helpful. If I'm using Intune every day, I know where to go, but for that first time, Copilot is beneficial. When I need it to compute anything for me, Copilot is there.
I have been playing around with the analytics features of Microsoft Intune. I mainly use Microsoft Intune analytics for taking that data that exists and bringing it into Power BI dashboards to make it visible to our clients, showing them all the operating systems in their environment and where the latest patches are, and then from there creating plans. The insights, even though we're talking about charts and graphs, are super valuable to customers who might not otherwise know what's in their ecosystem or the current state of things within their ecosystem.
It allows you to also search for unwanted apps that might be installed. Now you can go do that naturally in the user interface. Having that little chat bot in the top right, especially if you're not in Intune every day, is really helpful. Obviously, if you're using Intune every day, you know where to go. However, for that first time, Copilot helps. And then if you needed to actually compute anything for you, obviously, Copilot helps as well.
We've used the advanced endpoint analytics to take existing data and bring it into our BI dashboards and from there, create plans. The insights are super valuable to customers who might otherwise know what's within their ecosystem.
Not having to reimage machines every summer is a huge, huge task that's gone. Limiting trips to a physical help desk has been saving us a lot of time.
What needs improvement?
Enrollment into the Microsoft Intune service can still get easier, especially for legacy-managed systems, such as how we get it from a GPO or an SCCM configuration into Intune. A lot has been done, but there can always be more. Regarding third-party migrations from other MDM solutions, customers want to get into Intune because they own it already as part of their Microsoft Suite, so helping with that crosswalk would be desperately needed and would make it faster for customer adoption, leading to greater satisfaction.
There was a steep learning curve when I did it; however, they've fixed a lot of the bugginess. It just works now. It's nice.
For how long have I used the solution?
I started using Microsoft Intune back in 2016. I was there for multiple generations of it where it started, and then watching it really take off in 2018, 2019, to it now being the de facto device management platform in the industry.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I assess Microsoft Intune's performance or reliability as being about 99.9% uptime.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I find Microsoft Intune to be unlimited in scalability. I'm not worried about it and I think the same applies for our customers too; I don't think they are worried either. Intune can handle a lot.
How are customer service and support?
Customer service and technical support for Microsoft Intune are very good. As a partner, I'm treated well. I already know the product, so the questions I ask tend to be more precise. I could see if someone is completely new, they would have to learn the questions to ask. For me, I have no issue. When something arises, I get a pretty good answer.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have considered and used some CrowdStrike security tools that we had on phones to try to do some of that. Fortunately, that's all gone and it's all Defender and Intune managed devices now.
Intune is part of the Microsoft suite. So if you're using parts of the Microsoft suite, it makes sense to use all of it versus having to go to, like, another thing. Right? There are too many things within Microsoft. There are a million other things that when you start mixing up, like, I'm gonna get this from here and that from there. And it's really hard to ask people to be professionals at multiple different product suites.
How was the initial setup?
We have the solution deployed to all of our devices.
What was our ROI?
The biggest improvement in my endpoint management since implementing Microsoft Intune is not having to re-image machines every summer, which is a huge task that's gone, along with whatever my re-image cycle was, and then limiting trips to a physical help desk.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing structure for Microsoft Intune is not complex. It's very simple because it comes with the Microsoft Suite whether it's E3 or E5, and it automatically includes Intune. I think there could be better documentation on what that actually means. We end up in many conversations about whether we are appropriately licensed for various features. I think the answer is always affirmative, but people want to confirm because they don't want to deploy things that they don't own for their own compliance.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We did not consider other options.
What other advice do I have?
I selected Microsoft Intune over other endpoint management products because it's part of the Microsoft Suite. If I'm using parts of the Microsoft Suite, it makes sense to use all of it versus having to use another solution. There are too many things within Microsoft; there are many other things when I start mixing up getting different components from different places, and it's really hard to ask people to be professionals at multiple different product suites.
I rate Microsoft Intune a nine out of ten, noting they could improve their Linux and open-source Android support.

Enables secure policy enforcement and application deployment
Pros and Cons
- "Microsoft Intune is the best solution available; we can connect with any device and handle all queries, which sets it apart from other tools available in the market."
- "However, due to access limitations, we are unable to deploy certain security features on end-user devices."
What is our primary use case?
We are using Microsoft Intune to check device compliance issues, enrolling, patching policies, and deploying applications in end-user devices. We check device status in our Microsoft Intune portal.
We are using managed policies through Microsoft Intune. We deploy applications through Microsoft Intune. We deploy Windows versions and patches through Microsoft Intune.
How has it helped my organization?
Microsoft Intune helps to maintain compliance, deploy applications in end-user devices, and patch Windows updates.
We are protecting our environment by implementing security policies through Microsoft Intune. We can create policies and manage them. We can block access in our users' profiles so they cannot access anything apart from the company site. We have also blocked sites. They cannot install any third-party applications. We have blocked that to secure the user's profile and the system.
What is most valuable?
The most important feature of Microsoft Intune is that you can patch or allow access to the end-user profile without opening the Active Directory in the jump server. You can access Microsoft Intune in a browser portal and access all functions. You can check all the details of the user's profile and system details. You can find out why a device is under non-compliance, check it, and find the root causes. You can also enroll devices at your own end.
What needs improvement?
We can do any updates in Windows through Microsoft Intune. However, due to access limitations, we are unable to deploy certain security features on end-user devices.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Microsoft Intune for the last one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is stable. I would rate it an eight out of ten for stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is scalable. I would rate it an eight out of ten for scalability.
We have a lot of clients with 800 to 900 users in multiple countries.
How are customer service and support?
I would rate their support a seven out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is easy.
Microsoft Intune does not require any maintenance from our end.

Enhances response time with scheduled updates while offering clients remote assistance
Pros and Cons
- "Microsoft Intune saves eight hours per day, and during my work hours, I use my time to study and run tests on configurations I'm curious about and try them out in my environment."
- "I have experienced downtime, bugs, and glitches. I rate it a seven because when we have bugs or instability in Microsoft Intune, we need to wait for the backend from Microsoft Intune to resolve issues and we can't deliver solutions to clients because we need to wait for action plans and related processes."
What is our primary use case?
My use case for Microsoft Intune involves working in the breaking fixed line. I receive tickets when customers encounter errors or have doubts about the tool. I can explain the tool to clients, or I'll analyze the error. For example, if someone tries to use BitLocker but their device doesn't encrypt, I start my analysis of the policy the client created and try to fix the error.
What is most valuable?
The best features of Microsoft Intune are Windows Update rings. This is superior because you can schedule updates for quality, security, or OS system updates. It is beneficial because we can schedule work hours or after work hours to implement the updates. It helps me better understand client issues and increase my response time to deliver solutions to problems.
What needs improvement?
The areas that have room for improvement in Microsoft Intune include the Autopilot process. The ESP profile could be easier to use as many clients complain about it because if we don't deploy the ESP, the Autopilot doesn't work properly. These two configurations should be together when you create the Autopilot profile rather than separated.
Another tool that needs modifications is script deployments. When trying to deliver PowerShell scripts in the organization to apply wallpapers, it's very complicated to see if they return errors or how they show in the devices. Changing that would help significantly.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used Microsoft Intune for a year and three months. I have been working for three years in the Microsoft line support. Before Microsoft Intune, I was the Exchange engineer from the support line too.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I have experienced downtime, bugs, and glitches. I rate it a seven because when we have bugs or instability in Microsoft Intune, we need to wait for the backend from Microsoft Intune to resolve issues and we can't deliver solutions to clients because we need to wait for action plans and related processes.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
In my organization, I am the only one who works with Microsoft Intune. When I need to use my environment to test, I create approximately 20 users and start to deploy. In my role, I receive tickets from organizations that have thousands of devices requiring issue resolution in Microsoft Intune.
How are customer service and support?
From one to ten, I would rate the technical support at a 10.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I cannot compare Microsoft Intune with other solutions or vendors on the market because the only time I saw Microsoft Intune work with another solution was when I received a ticket about Mac OS where the organization used MDM Jamf to manage devices and started using Microsoft Intune. They tried to migrate to Microsoft Intune. This is the only collaboration I have seen between Jamf and Microsoft Intune.
What was our ROI?
Microsoft Intune saves eight hours per day. During my work hours, I use my time to study and run tests on configurations I'm curious about and try them out in my environment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing for Microsoft Intune is very reasonable because organizations can pay without complaints. Microsoft Intune isn't sold standalone only. Organizations can buy Microsoft 365 Business Premium, which includes Microsoft Intune with the license. It's a reasonable price to use Microsoft Intune.
What other advice do I have?
I recommend Microsoft Intune to other users because it's a great tool to manage the environment. You can use it on one machine to deliver it to others. When you enroll these devices, the IT professional's life becomes easier to manage these machines because we can do everything remotely. I would rate Microsoft Intune overall as a nine out of ten.

Continuous implementation of new capabilities secures data and streamlines device management
Pros and Cons
- "The best features of Microsoft Intune include continuous implementation of new capabilities each year, covering almost everything."
What is our primary use case?
I used troubleshooting steps while working on enrollment, deployment, and policy configuration regarding Microsoft Intune.
What is most valuable?
The best features of Microsoft Intune include continuous implementation of new capabilities each year, covering almost everything. They recently added Linux operating system enrollment. Multiple options have been streamlined. Previously, configurations were split between Endpoint Security and configuration settings. Microsoft Intune has now merged these into unified configuration settings.
Microsoft Intune continues to implement numerous improvements. It effectively secures data and manages organizational devices.
What needs improvement?
Based on my experience with Microsoft Intune, most features are already implemented. However, Autopilot enrollment is not available for Mac devices yet, which would be a great addition if implemented.
Instead of using Win32 apps, having direct application support for MSI store and LOB apps would be beneficial. Currently, converting applications to Win32 format adds an extra layer of complexity. When problems occur with Win32 applications, it requires involvement from the application team. Having direct application support would simplify the deployment process.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used Microsoft Intune for almost three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
We experienced downtime, but it originated from organizational issues rather than the cloud infrastructure of Microsoft Intune.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Microsoft Intune scales effectively with the growing needs of the organization.
How are customer service and support?
The support is excellent for Indian organizations, with multiple levels of support teams. For critical cases, Microsoft engineers become directly involved to assist customers. In my previous role at Concentrix, we had two to three sessions weekly with the Microsoft team.
We had separate sessions for Windows, Android, Mac OS, application deployment, and enrollment. These sessions allowed us to discuss challenging cases and review logs with Microsoft engineers for solutions. When needed, direct engineer support from Microsoft was available.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not consider any other solutions before selecting Microsoft Intune.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
With nine years of experience in technical terms and Microsoft products, I have compared Microsoft Intune with other MDM solutions such as Jamf, which is also good. SCCM is reportedly being discontinued. Microsoft Intune has high demand in the market, with many organizations purchasing this plan.
What other advice do I have?
I recently joined Capgemini in a project role, transitioning from a support role. Microsoft Intune is a delivery mechanism for applications and configurations. In my technical support role, I handled app protection policy cases and Autopilot cases, troubleshooting various issues based on error messages.
On a scale of 1-10, I rate Microsoft Intune an 8 out of 10.
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Disclosure: PeerSpot contacted the reviewer to collect the review and to validate authenticity. The reviewer was referred by the vendor, but the review is not subject to editing or approval by the vendor.

Comprehensive management of devices enhances organizational efficiency
Pros and Cons
- "Microsoft Intune brings all our endpoint and security management tools into one place, acting as a comprehensive solution where we can manage numerous devices and configuration profiles, and block specific URLs, among many other capabilities."
- "Microsoft Intune could be improved by adding short video tutorials or direct links to Microsoft articles in the information button."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use Microsoft Intune for managing Windows devices, and we also work with Linux devices, though not with Mac. It's a significant help for Windows management, with excellent policies and report fetching systems compared to Jamf.
How has it helped my organization?
Microsoft Intune brings all our endpoint and security management tools into one place. It acts as a comprehensive solution where we can manage numerous devices and configuration profiles, and block specific URLs, among many other capabilities.
We use the Enterprise Application Management features. The automatic updating in Microsoft Intune is excellent. When a user comes up with an application package to update and deploy, we have to go through the UAT process, which can be hectic. However, the automatic updates are really helpful and decrease our workload.
Copilot is particularly useful as it helps analyze error logs and can even assist with writing emails, saving considerable time.
What is most valuable?
My favorite feature of Microsoft Intune is the device find and device applications options, where we can see which applications are installed on devices with accurate version information. This helps us troubleshoot systems effectively.
I also appreciate the report system that allows us to fetch clear reports. Previously, we used Workspace ONE, but its reports weren't as reliable as Microsoft Intune's.
The user interface of Microsoft Intune is good, though new members sometimes find it challenging to navigate due to the numerous options within categories such as devices, applications, Windows 365, enrollment, and configuration.
What needs improvement?
Microsoft Intune could be improved by adding short video tutorials or direct links to Microsoft articles in the information button. Currently, the descriptions in the information button aren't always clear about what certain options do. Having these additional resources would be particularly helpful for new users, eliminating the need to search extensively for information.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Microsoft Intune for about two years. I have hands-on experience with Microsoft Intune.
I started using Microsoft Intune in May 2023, and it took me two to three months to fully understand its capabilities. After this learning period, I gained a clear understanding of what Microsoft Intune does compared to Workspace ONE and Jamf. While every MDM tool has its own features, Microsoft Intune serves as a comprehensive solution.
How are customer service and support?
We have contacted technical support for various issues. They demonstrate extensive knowledge and consistently resolve our problems.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used Workspace ONE, but its reports were not as reliable as those from Microsoft Intune.
What other advice do I have?
While I don't know much about securing hybrid work and protecting data on bring-your-own devices, it is secure. Microsoft Intune has endpoint security options and all the necessary features. However, organizations are using different options for security purposes. Some use Defender as well, so I haven't seen much about that. We use the Endpoint Privilege Management.
I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten.
