Microsoft Intune Reviews

We use the solution for endpoint management for about 15,000 devices. It helps us ensure compliance and security for our devices according to standards. We also use it for application management, security and compliance, and centralized management from a single point. So, it covers endpoint management, app management, and compliance management and provides centralized control.

We were trying to solve many issues, mainly the lack of centralized management. Before Microsoft Intune, we had to manually support devices one by one, installing applications and configuring policies individually. When we implemented the tool, it became much easier to manage our devices. We enroll them in Microsoft Intune and can manage all devices with a few clicks. For application management, it's the same process. If we want to deploy applications to hundreds or thousands of devices, we can do it easily with just a few clicks. This also applies to policies. 

I have been using Microsoft Intune and another solution for endpoint management. What I like the most about IT is that it's a cloud-based solution. We don't need any on-premises infrastructure to manage it. It's easy to access the portal from anywhere securely. This setup reduces our workload because Microsoft handles everything related to the infrastructure, including notifications about any downtime. This way, we can inform our customers in advance.

We are currently using different solutions, but all from Microsoft. We use Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Security. it also includes Microsoft Defender. In the future, we might use these tools for security purposes.

The solution's user experience is very good. Compared with on-premises solutions, it deploys applications and policies faster, resolving user queries in less time. Configuring anything is easier; users only need to follow a few basic steps, such as installing the company portal app and logging in with their ID and password, to integrate their device. Unlike on-premises solutions, which can be confusing, the solution allows us to manage various devices, including Linux, mobile devices, and Windows. 

It functions similarly to on-premises but offers additional features. For example, we can maintain applications downloaded from the Microsoft Store and onboard them as a solution for user-based deployment. This reduces the need to create manual packages, as most applications are available on the Microsoft resource.

The solution needs to improve reporting. Sometimes, it shows double or triple entries of the same thing, which affects the count's accuracy. Also, some applications onboarded in Microsoft Intune do not get updated. When we look for solutions online, there is often no clear answer.

Microsoft Intune has no automatic cleanup option for devices that haven't been used for over 90 days. It would be beneficial for Microsoft to add such a feature.

I have been using the product for two years and six months. 

The solution is stable, but there was one incident where we faced an issue with a security patch. We didn't receive any notification about this problem, which caused significant issues in our infrastructure. Regarding SLA, we now receive multiple notifications from Microsoft about planned downtimes. 

The tool is used by users in our environment across various locations, including RU, APAC, China, India, Pakistan, and Germany. It is scalable. 

Microsoft support takes time to respond. 

Neutral

The installation and implementation were very easy compared to on-premises solutions. We just needed one Azure account to create a tenant and log in to endpoint management. The setup required only a full subscription. On-premises setups, by contrast, need multiple servers, VPNs, and IP configurations, which is much more complicated. Configuring the tool took around 10-20 minutes, and only one person was needed.

The solution has reduced manual labor by approximately 15%. Many business applications, such as Google Chrome and VLC Media Player, are available in the Microsoft Store. We still need to manually create packages for a few custom applications used by our organization that aren't available in the Microsoft Store. However, we can onboard the majority of applications without creating manual packages. Being a cloud-based solution, it eliminates the need for multiple on-premises servers and the associated infrastructure. We only need a cloud subscription to manage everything. We can save around 40 percent on costs with Microsoft Intune. It has also helped us save money, time, and resources by 50-60 percent. 

We use the workbook to describe data on device compliance. It helps us generate reports and analytics about how many devices are compliant and how many are below the patch compliance deadline for updates. We do use some of the reporting features. For endpoint security, we can check how many devices have been affected by malware and how many have an updated Defender platform.

Microsoft Intune is a cloud solution, so there's no need to maintain servers, patch networks, or configure network info. It provides EDR capabilities. The solution also allows for mobility management, meaning we can manage mobile devices. Additionally, it can manage Chrome OS and Linux devices, though we aren't currently using that feature. The tool offers a centralized solution for deploying policies, compliance policies, application management, and patching servers and workstations.

The product has reduced our costs and centralized management. We can manage all our devices from a single console, which is very effective for reporting.

It simplifies deploying applications. We can push policies to ensure only certain users can access specific applications. Additionally, Intune allows us to create user and device groups.

Currently, we manage privileges through Azure AD. We have groups set up with specific group policies and restrictions. For example, we've assigned certain licenses, such as E5 and Office 365 Copilot licenses, to users through these groups, granting them the necessary privileges to access these features.

The solution supports logging, which helps us easily trace and identify issues. It also provides many reports on device compliance and configuration. This capability helps us reduce the time required to reach out to Azure. 

It centralizes the management of users, groups, and applications. In an on-premises setup, we would need multiple teams, such as an AD and application packaging team. With Microsoft Intune, we don't need to create packages for many applications, as they are already available in the line of business.

I would recommend it to other users because it's a cloud solution that centralizes the management of endpoint devices, security, and Azure products. However, I would mention that reporting is an area where the tool could improve, as it's crucial for some organizations. If reporting is a critical need, Microsoft Intune might not fully meet those requirements.

I rate it an eight out of ten. 

We use Microsoft Intune to manage our corporate devices such as mobile devices.

Microsoft Intune unifies all of our endpoints and security management tools.

Since Intune is part of Microsoft and managed under one umbrella, we don't need any third-party solutions and we can control everything from Intune which enhances our IT and security operations.

Microsoft Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms ensuring our data is secure.

The user experience for Intune is good.

Microsoft's security signals within Intune improve our security posture.

Endpoint Privilege Management enables us to enforce least privilege access. We can assign different types of access based on each user.

Our attack surface is minimized because if there are any threats or suspicious activity, the affected device is automatically blocked and it becomes non-compliant. The application and company data become inaccessible until the issue has been resolved. These actions also trigger email notifications to inform us of the situation.

Implementing Microsoft Intune has significantly improved the efficiency of our IT team. Previously, managing our devices involved juggling Active Directory and SCCM, requiring multiple tools and a scattered approach. Now, with everything centralized in the cloud, we have a single portal, a single point of control, and a single subscription. This eliminates the need for dedicated servers and complex hardware setups, reducing the need for manual monitoring and update triggers. With Intune, everything is under one umbrella, offering a wide range of options with just a click. No more complicated settings or fragmented workflows. We simply choose the desired policy, perform a few clicks, and our machines are enrolled and updated seamlessly. This streamlined approach has not only boosted our IT team's productivity but also enhanced our overall security posture.

Intune has helped reduce the risk of security breaches by up to 70 percent.

Microsoft Intune has helped our organization save costs.

The many policies available in Microsoft Intune for managing our devices are valuable.

The policies we had in SCCM and AD offered features that are missing from Microsoft Intune.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for one year.

I would rate Microsoft Intune's stability a seven out of ten because it needs more granular policies.

The first level of support is not good but the higher levels are knowledgeable and they are available 24/7.

Neutral

We previously used Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager and switched to Microsoft Intune so we could better secure our personal and corporate devices.

The initial deployment was straightforward. We need a license to join the machines to Azure and then apply the policies we create.

One person is required for deployment.

The implementation was done in-house.

I am satisfied with the pricing.

I would rate Microsoft Intune a seven out of ten.

Intune has helped us consolidate vendors. The consolidation has saved us on licensing costs.

We have 100 plus customers and a team of 20 people using Microsoft Intune.

It's important that Intune's suite is integrated with Microsoft 365, and Microsoft Security for both cloud and co-managed devices.

Intune does not require maintenance but we do need to monitor the status of our devices.

I recommend trying Microsoft Intune.

My company has over 7,000 devices, including mobile devices, Windows, and Mac. The tool is only used to manage my team's mobile devices.

The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and control of the MAM and MDM policies and configuration. The tool is straightforward and easy to use, while it also integrates with Azure. It has been a good product so far.

The tool has improved the way my team works as it is a cloud-based tool, so we don't have to manage on-prem servers. We also use apps on Microsoft Office 365, which is also one of the main reasons why we use Microsoft Intune.

I use the enterprise application management features of the tool, and my experience with it has been pretty good. Microsoft tells us that there are no bug issues with the updated versions or current versions, so there are no issues in the tool.

I use Microsoft Intune's Cloud PKI, and it helps manage the complexity of certificate management in infrastructure pretty well. There are no issues with certs or updating them.

Microsoft Intune has not affected my IT productivity, but it is not a very Android-friendly tool. We have had a lot of Android issues and compatibility problems with our VPN or tunnel. The tool is not very Android-friendly.

The maintenance of the tool is a lot less now for our company.

With the day to day device management tasks, the tool has been great, and there have rarely been any issues with it.

The mobile application management policies, specifically conditional access policies and app protection policies, are good features for managing diverse mobile environments. The DLP part is very strong.

The tool's tunnel gateway is not very good, making it an area where improvements are required. I wish it weren't so Azure's security group-based tool with which you can have local accounts. More personalization should be possible in the tool. One negative about Microsoft Intune is it acts too much as one of Azure's group-based products.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for half a year. I am just a customer of the solution.

I think the scalability is pretty easy and a lot easier to manage since we don't have to deal with the on-premises side. We use the cloud for extra storage, so it has been great.

My experience with the solution's technical support has been very good, but for other teams, it has not been very good. I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.

Positive

My company previously had some on-premises tools, but now it is cloud-based, so we save all the money on the network infrastructure and data centers. We don't need servers or storage, and it helps us save money.

When it comes to the product's deployment phase, I have taken part in the mobility side. In our company, we went through a migration, so there is always a lot of planning and testing and all that goes with it. Overall, it is fairly easy to use because it is deployed on a SaaS model.

The solution is deployed using a dedicated SaaS model. I think other teams have deployed it using an on-premises model.

The solution's deployment phase took a year and a half to test and set up everything. There was a lot of stuff involved.

In our company, prior to our migration, we already had Office 365 licenses, so it saved us around 4,00,000 for around a year.

I have seen a return on investment right from the start of the tool's usage.

I don't really know how much it costs, as my company pays for a bunch of licenses. The tool is cheaper than our company's other MDM tools.

My company has a few of Microsoft Intune's compliance policies that have helped us with some of the issues with sync interval with the compliance that we have noticed. The sync interval or the turnaround is not as quick as our company would like it to be currently. I understand that we can't control the sync interval.

I rate the tool a seven and a half out of ten.

We use Intune as the MDM platform, and we used to deploy some products connected to Intune. 

Intune has improved productivity somewhat by connecting the AD with Microsoft Defender and the MDM because we can identify the Internet server. That's the main application or port over which we can manage our infrastructure. It streamlines device management. 

I like how Intune deploys the policies and makes them customizable. You can deploy it through Intune and forget about it. 

You can connect Defender for Endpoint to Intune and assign the client to start porting detections and alerts, creating a little security operations center. The integration is easy but tricky for someone who doesn't know how to use it. Once you learn to use it, it's a powerful tool that can condense most of your administrative tasks into one place

Integration with Microsoft 365 and security is critical if you have a Microsoft infrastructure. You want all the tools to be connected and exchanging data so that when you make a change or deploy something, you can make an informed decision and log the errors. You can avoid having different types of configurations and strengthen your policies. 

We've been using what they call conditional access in which we set up policies and apply them based on certain conditions and attributes. For example, you can apply some policies to company-owned devices and a different set of policies to devices for personal use. 

Sometimes, it takes time to synchronize the policies between the portal and the devices, you don't have a way to estimate how long it will take to deploy. You have some kind of gray area, where it can deploy in 30 minutes or three days. 

I have two years of experience with Intune

I rate Microsoft support nine out of 10. When we raise a ticket, they respond with a solution or guidance on how to fix the problem within 24 hours. 

Positive

We used VMware Workspace ONE and one other MDM. Based on my experience, I think Intune is the most robust because of how easily it can integrate with the other Microsoft tools. You won't need to deal with the process of connecting the Active Directory to Intune. Once you have your account with a subscription and a license, it will connect automatically, and you won't have a big problem with it. 

Microsoft offers a license that lets you access all the tools. Purchasing that license will probably be the most cost-effective if you plan to implement a Microsoft-oriented infrastructure. It's cheaper than purchasing all the products separately. 

I rate Microsoft Intune eight out of 10. 

We use Intune for Windows computers, and we also have iOS phones.

Intune simplifies mobile application management. It is very good. Its console is perfect. I am satisfied with it.

Intune works well with Microsoft Defender. Intune brings all of our endpoint and security management tools into one place. It is very good. We can manage the firewall and other things. It is very good for the security of computers.

Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms, but we need to have RBAC for the IT. We have to assign appropriate roles and manage the scope based on, for example, the country and division.

We can use Intune for computers on the cloud, and we can also use it for a hybrid setup with on-premises and cloud computers. We can use Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager to manage all the hybrid devices.

We have a lot of reports for data. There are reports related to Windows where we can see whether all the computers have required updates or not. We can also do an inventory of all applications on the computers. We can also do application installation across the company.

Intune works with Log Analytics for Azure. It is a tool for monitoring and analyzing log data.

We can configure Intune for compliance settings. It provides a method to know if a computer is compliant or not. We can use conditional access to allow or block connections. For example, we can set a condition where if a computer is not hybrid, we do not allow the connection to Azure or we block the Office access for that computer. We can configure a compliance setting to know if a computer is compliant or not. We can also block access if a computer, for example, is not encrypted. There are many settings that we can configure, and we can generate reports to see the compliance.

For application deployment, there are a lot of methods that we can use. We can do it from the company portal from Microsoft. It is very easy for IT to configure. We can package, for example, an SAP application in three seconds. We have the possibility to use the automatic detection rules and package our internal application. We have a lot of possibilities. We can use the applications from the store, or we can package our internal applications. I find it very rich.

It is easy to use Intune. We do not have to work with agents. We do not have issues related to agents. With SCCM, we had to use an agent, and there were certain requirements. For example, we had to use a local administrator account, whereas, with Intune, we do not need to do all this. It is all cloud. It is very simple and easy to use.

It is very easy to configure deployment policies. For example, we can deploy something just for Windows 11 and not for Windows 10. It is very rich when it comes to deployment and configuration profiles. Intune is now much better than before.

Configuration profiles, remediation, scripts, and auto-pilot features are very good.

The user experience of Intune is very good for me. The user interface and navigation are very simple and clear. It is very easy to use for managing Windows, iOS, and other environments. People at IT level one and level two will find its console very simple to use. It is very useful.

There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements. I am very satisfied with it.

I have been using Intune for six years.

It is stable.

It is very scalable. I would rate it a ten out of ten for scalability. 

Our clients have a lot of users. We have 16 or 17 people working with this solution.

I opened a lot of tickets. Their team is responsive, and they respond quickly to help users. I would rate them a ten out of ten.

Positive

For remote access, we are not using Intune, but in my previous company, we used Intune for that. It worked very well. We did not have any problems with it. For managing remote devices, we are using Bomgar.

We have a lot of departments. We are using Intune only for the production computers. For others, we use SCCM. We have a hybrid environment.

It is a cloud solution. Its deployment took about 40 minutes.

It does require maintenance.

It is not expensive.

We trust Microsoft. They are a big and good company. Microsoft is working very hard on security. We do not have any problems with Microsoft.

I would recommend Intune for all companies. It is a very centralized and good solution.

I would rate Intune a ten out of ten.

We typically use Intune when we have workstations that we want to manage, but we do not want to connect to our legacy Active Directory. We use a combination of Intune and Azure Active Directory.

Intune is able to put together compliance and safety checks for our endpoint devices, but it is one of the protection or security solutions. We need to use other solutions as well to completely manage the security, such as Microsoft Defender or a third-party endpoint antivirus solution. Intune definitely helps with protection, but you need to make sure that you have your endpoint security software installed. Intune provides good visibility into which devices comply with your company standards and which ones do not.

Intune more or less provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms. It simplifies my work because it is easy to view which devices are compliant and which ones are not. All you have to do is establish or configure your company's device policies, and then from there, you make sure that you assign those policies to users. Intune is able to gather information about who is compliant and who is not. It saves time on security management and administration. The administrator does not have to go through all of the company devices deployed throughout the organization. It definitely saves time.

Users have a better experience because they do not have to do anything on their end. Everything is pretty much handled at the back. When they sign in to their computers, Intune kicks in, and they do not have to do anything for software deployment. It just takes a few minutes for the software on their devices to download. All the software is deployed by Intune based on their profile. It takes a few minutes. The users are happy with it because they are able to proceed to work without having to call the IT help desk to get assistance. For security and management, such as updating machines, they have control over when they can do the restart. They appreciate that their machine is being updated and looked after by the IT group. They see that policies are made personal, and they are able to seamlessly download the updates on computers.

Users' access to the company data through personal devices became more secure. It helps to segregate data from their personal devices or applications.

Intune has improved productivity. It has probably reduced the risk of security breaches by 20%. It cannot completely mitigate possible breaches in the company, but it improves the security posture for the devices being used by the users. A significant percentage of breaches rely on the users and user behavior. 

It helps us save costs, but I do not have any data. Security breaches cost a lot, and if it is able to mitigate a security breach, we have saved the cost of that breach.

The policy and compliance monitoring of devices and the software deployment are most valuable.

We have a bird's eye view of what is happening on the endpoint.

They should improve its compatibility with other operating systems such as iOS and Linux. It supports Linux but they still need to work on the iOS part.

I have been using Intune since 2019.

I have not worked with any other solution recently. 

It is easy.

We have seen an ROI.

It is reasonable for the features it has.

If you are just running Windows, it is very good. It is tightly integrated with Windows. Microsoft gives Windows users quite an experience. If you decide to deploy it for Windows, it allows you to take away the old Active Directory, and just rely on Azure AD. All of the policies and other configurable items are in there to manage security on your local machines. Of course, there are some caveats between the two, but security-wise and endpoint management-wise, it takes care of Windows from authentication and onboarding to software deployment and updates. I have very good experience using Intune with my Windows machines, but for other OS, it still needs to be improved.

I would rate Intune an eight out of ten. It lacks features for managing operating systems other than Windows.

One plan that we are currently testing for the near future is related to our BYOD fleet. Instead of opting for MDM, we have decided to use Microsoft Intune to manage access to our company through BYOD. Moreover, we plan to use Microsoft Intune to perform autopilot PC deployments in the near future.

We had two distinct issues we needed to resolve with Microsoft Intune for two different use cases. Firstly, for the BYOD scenario, we needed Intune to ensure a sufficient level of security while enabling users to bring their personal mobile devices. Secondly, we aimed to automate PC deployment, even when users are not connected to the network, due to the COVID pandemic and the increase in remote work. Currently, to reimage a machine, users must be on the network. Our goal is to enable them to reimage their machines from home, using autopilot.

We found that Microsoft Intune met our expectations for the BYOD section, and we are optimistic about its potential for PC deployment through autopilot. The main advantage is that Intune performs its intended functions effectively.

As a Microsoft 365 user, we found Microsoft Intune to be a practical choice since it was already included in the bundle. The solution was effective, so we didn't need to look for other options or invest in additional tools. Intune performed the necessary tasks efficiently, making our decision straightforward.

The UI is not user-friendly and has room for improvement.

I have been using the solution for four years.

We have not had a single outage in the last four years. Microsoft Intune is extremely stable.

Microsoft Intune is auto-scalable in the cloud.

The initial setup was straightforward. The deployment required two people from the third party and two of our architects, one for security and one for the network.

We used a third party and our architect for implementation.

We have seen a return on investment because we were able to quickly deploy and start using Intune.

Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have.

We assessed VMware and found its MDM to be promising. However, since we were already utilizing other Microsoft solutions, and Intune was capable of meeting our requirements, we did not require further evaluation of additional solutions.

I give the solution an eight out of ten.

We have around 10,000 people in over 20 different countries whose devices are managed by Microsoft Intune.

There is no maintenance required for the solution.

I highly recommend Microsoft Intune to others.

I primarily use Intune for troubleshooting user issues. For example, if a user raises a ticket stating that Teams is not working and they cannot connect to the corporate network, I check if they are in the appropriate group for certifications like Wi-Fi and PKI. If not, I add them to solve the issue. I am also involved in pushing apps like safety apps. My current project involves ensuring compliance with policies, BYOD, CYOD, Apple Business Manager, APNs, and Apple Push Notification certificates. Enrollment is another task I handle.

Having everything in one place is useful for our IT and security operations. We can remotely do anything in Intune. It protects data on managed devices. It is very effective.

Intune allows us to deploy managed apps directly from the Microsoft store by adding an additional layer of security, automatically reviewing apps before they are installed on end-user devices. For example, if a user needs an application and it is mandatory for them, it is silently and mandatorily downloaded from the company portal.

It is a cloud-based service. It is easy to use and offers privacy.

Intune helps the organization manage access to its internal apps, data, and resources. 

I am pretty new to this solution. At this time, I do not have any areas for improvement. I have heard about some downtime, but I am not in the local IT team.

I have one and a half months of experience in troubleshooting. Currently, I have two years of experience with Intune. I handle iOS and iPad tasks, including applications and small works.

I have not faced any issues. I have heard about downtime, but our local IT team manages downtime issues.

It is scalable and capable of growing with the business.

Microsoft has a portal with good resources. I have not interacted with their support.

Neutral

I have not used any other solution previously.

Its pricing seems reasonable.

I would rate Intune a nine out of ten.
