Microsoft Intune Reviews

We use Intune for endpoint management to ensure they are updated with the latest patches. We also leverage Intune to oversee our applications and keep them current. Lastly, we employ Intune's remote tools for endpoint administration.

We implemented Intune to ensure our endpoints were updated.

Intune brings all our endpoints and security management tools into one place.

Intune is integrated with Defender to manage our security policies.

The user experience is good. Intune is easy to use and deploy.

Intune has significantly improved our IT productivity by automating the updates for Windows and third-party applications. This automation reduces costs and improves efficiency, allowing us to adopt a set-and-forget approach to software maintenance.

The automatic patching is the most valuable feature of Intune.

Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on. For instance, I currently use PatchMyPC to package new applications for Intune and then deploy them to endpoints. If Intune offered this functionality natively, we wouldn't need to rely so heavily on third-party applications.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for almost four years.

The technical support by Microsoft is terrible. 

Negative

The initial deployment was complex, requiring an expert for setup. It took one week to complete and involved one system administrator and me.

The implementation was completed in-house.

We have seen a return on investment from Intune through time saved, which correlates to around $20,000 per year.

I would rate Microsoft Intune seven out of ten. Intune is a valuable tool, but following the screen prompts can sometimes be challenging.

Two of us are responsible for the maintenance of Intune.

I am an Operations and Infrastructure manager. I do not use it directly. My team is the implementer, and I oversee it. I know the product, and I know what I can do and what it can do. I just do not push the buttons.

We are still launching it. We have about 85% of our PCs in Intune. We have only got two or three conditional access policies and compliance policies in place.

We are using it for endpoint management for basically getting control. Our next step will be to launch Autopilot. We will use Intune Autopilot and then also security policy management and group policy management. We will also use it for updates and patching compliance.

At this stage, we have not fully utilized its capability for securing hybrid work and protecting data on company and BYO devices. We are still growing. We have been managing our security manually through the security portal and through Azure Security. Intune can provide an additional level of management capability by bringing all of the external services into one management console. It is going to make managing our security posture a little bit easier.

Intune has not yet affected IT productivity in our organization, but it will. Once we start bringing on the remote support capabilities and we are fully compliant in terms of touch management and minimum touch levels, it is going to ease up a lot more. There will be more time and resources for us to look at the other features and capabilities.

Intune has helped to reduce the risk of security breaches in our organization, and that is purely due to its patch management at this stage.

Intune has saved us costs. As it is bundled with our enterprise agreement or enterprise subscription, we have not had to look at additional products. I am still hoping to convince our business that maybe Absolute is not needed if we can manage things with Intune. As we are still relatively young and immature in that area, we might need to look at alternate products to bolt onto it, so we have not yet had any direct savings. We have possibly had indirect savings.

Based on the bit of work or research that I have done, it seems to fit our needs. When you are looking at some of its tracking and management capabilities versus Absolute, it just does not go that one step further where Absolute would go with the recovery service for Precision laptops. My users or asset management are asking for the recovery capability on laptops. If they were not asking for that, I would just settle for Intune and provide the lost location and submit those details to enforcement, but they want the recovery service.

Intune has not helped us consolidate vendors because we are pretty much a single vendor. We have only got the Microsoft ecosystem. We are busy decommissioning our on-prem System Center setup, and we are moving to Intune on the cloud. It is integrated fully with AAD. We do not want to run infrastructure in South Africa. Because of the load shedding and electricity problems that we have here, we would rather use the cloud.

In the context of our journey to the cloud, it is important for us that the capabilities of the Intune Suite are integrated with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security for both cloud and co-managed devices. It would not have been attractive if it was not.

It is quite easy to manage. From what I have seen, it is very easy to check through. It is very basic. I do not need to be a rocket scientist to manage it. It takes a little bit of experience to set it up if you have never done it before. From a manageability point of view and ease of use, I would give it an eight out of ten rating.

It is quite policy-enabled, so you can build pretty much any policy to manage remote endpoints.

There could be more wizard-driven policy development or creation. Some of the policies can get quite complex. If they have a wizard that assists the administrators in creating the policy, that will be a great job.

Microsoft South Africa should improve their support for Intune in terms of turnaround time.

We started using it in about October 2022. It has been about a year and four months.

Microsoft South Africa could certainly improve on their support of it in terms of the implementation experience and completion of the project. This project has been going on for a year and four months already, but it should have been completed in six months. There are just too many clients looking at it, and there are not enough Microsoft support engineers for Intune.

We have one assigned Microsoft resource. We have got a unified support contract. They have only one support person to deal with multiple clients within our area, and if he is not available, we just wait.

If we had confident and good support from Microsoft, we probably could have cut the project time by 50%. We probably would already be finished and have 100% PCs fully compliant with Intune. 

I would rate their support a four out of ten.

Neutral

We are busy migrating from Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager and Endpoint Manager because of the infrastructure requirements. We want to be on the cloud.

We are a key government department that looks after and advises 13 other departments. They are rolling up Intune to those 13 departments.

It comes as a bundle, so you do not really know what the prices are. Microsoft does not break it down to the user cost for us. It is just bundled with our E5 license.

We did not evaluate other solutions because Intune was a part of our subscription.

My advice would be to make certain that you have the relevant in-house capability so that if you are working with Microsoft, you are able to cross-skill with Microsoft. If you do not have that and you are going to fully rely on Microsoft to assist you with deploying it, then make certain that you go into your project with your eyes wide open in terms of timing. The product is good. The scoping of the project is good, but the turnaround time is an issue. There is a lot of improvement required at Microsoft's end. The easier they make the policy creation within Intune with the wizard-driven process, the easier it will be for the internal administrators to implement it. If you remove your reliance on Microsoft, you can run a good product.

We do not use the feature called Tunnel for MAM to provide remote access to corporate resources on mobile devices. We do use Teams as a support or email support tool. We have a very small department, so that is sufficient. We would not migrate it to Intune.

We are not using Intune's Endpoint Privilege Management feature. At this stage, we are using Azure privileged management as the primary means of control. If it makes sense, we will get to it. It is not the first one on the list of things that we have got to do at the moment. We are on a zero-trust journey. If it is going to be one of the tick boxes, we will get to that.

Based on what I have seen of the product and its capabilities, I would rate Intune a seven out of ten. There are some issues that need to be dealt with, especially with the integration with Microsoft Defender Endpoint. Most definitely, the level of support and Microsoft resource capability is where I would mark it down.

Microsoft Intune serves as a crucial tool to safeguard against unauthorized access and protect sensitive data. By implementing Intune, we can control and monitor device usage, acting as a gateway to enterprise services. Access to corporate resources, including email and sensitive information, is restricted to devices enrolled in Intune. It is a comprehensive security solution that not only controls access to enterprise resources but also tracks and prevents unauthorized access, ensuring the protection of sensitive data and preventing potential data loss scenarios.

It acts as a central integration point for endpoint and security management tools, simplifying the connection process. However, considerations such as privacy laws may impact the integration of certain devices, like partner devices, emphasizing the flexibility of Intune in adapting to various organizational needs. Given that Microsoft Intune operates on a policy-driven model, connecting all staff devices becomes a matter of duty. This is because the platform excels in efficiently managing endpoints by enforcing policies that govern device security, access, and compliance.

When it comes to the user experience, integrating and onboarding with Microsoft Intune is a seamless process for the majority of devices, such as those from well-known brands like Android and iOS, where compatibility stands at a high success rate of around ninety-four percent. However, it's important to acknowledge that there might be challenges with certain lesser-known or non-mainstream brands, where compatibility may not reach a hundred percent.

The implementation of Intune hasn't significantly impacted IT productivity within our organization. Instead, its primary function is to enhance security for remote connections.

Intune has played a vital role in minimizing the risk of security breaches. Its effectiveness lies in restricting unauthorized access, particularly in scenarios such as conferences where secure connectivity is crucial. This reinforces the overall security posture, especially concerning mobile devices.

Implementing this product has resulted in cost savings for our organization. In the event of data loss, the expenses associated with investigations and remediation are significantly reduced. The product adds value by mitigating the financial impacts related to security incidents.

Intune plays a crucial role in ensuring the security of hybrid work environments and safeguarding data on both company-owned and BYO devices. While it functions seamlessly for mainstream devices, including Dimensional and others, there might be some challenges with certain brands of personal devices. However, overall, Intune provides a comprehensive platform where both corporate and partner devices can coexist securely.

The utilization of Microsoft security signals, coupled with the impact of Intune on our organization's security, is a pivotal aspect of our strategy. While there may be some limitations in the user interface when dealing with BYOD scenarios, the synergy with Microsoft Defender solutions is noteworthy. The seamless integration within the Microsoft suite ensures a cohesive security approach. Additionally, the incorporation of phishing information and tracking numbers further enhances our security posture, especially when dealing with partner devices atop the Microsoft Defender platform.

The integration of Intune suite capabilities with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security for both cloud and on-premises managed devices is highly valuable. The suitability depends on the specific requirements and the number of users in a given scenario.

There is room for improvement, particularly in terms of compatibility, extending beyond the well-known major brands.

I have been working with it for approximately a year.

It provides good stability.

We never faced any issue with scalability.

Thus far, we have not encountered any issues with the support provided, and their responsiveness has been satisfactory.

The deployment process is straightforward; we simply configure the necessary settings within the server, initiate the enrollment, and push it out. This streamlined approach facilitates staff onboarding efficiently.

When it comes to licensing, the decision to include Intune may vary based on the volume of users and the specific modules needed.

Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.

Essentially, we use it to manage devices. We are looking at potentially moving away from VMware and bringing mobile devices and tablets into Intune along with desktops and laptops, which we currently manage, so that it serves as an all-in-one active asset list where we can look at the health of the entire technical estate. We can manage against threats. We can roll out apps, policies, et cetera. We can also manage logins, reset logins, et cetera, and it's an all-in-one, 24/7 solution.

Microsoft Intune has absolutely improved the way our organization functions. We're currently going through the AAD migration, so we are transitioning away from the old on-premise domain to Azure. The ability to take devices that were locally managed via AD but weren't managed via Intune is brilliant. We can see who last logged in, who it's managed by, which OS is there when it was last updated, etc. It gives us a micro overview of what's happening there.

Generally, we find it quite useful. We don't use it to the full extent. We've only got a P1 license, but generally, the application health and the ability to create and manage policies are valuable. We can split them very quickly into groups, multiple policies, etc. So, it's those core basics that we use, but they work very well.

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.

I'd like some more reporting so that I don't have to delve into PowerShell and I can pull more of the local device information such as memory, apps installed, etc. It would be nice to be able to see the apps that are present there but might not be managed. For example, if they installed 7Zip, it could report that back via an installed program or feature to see what was currently installed. Generally, it works, and nobody complains about it.

I've been using this solution for a couple of years.

Sometimes, they can take a little while to come back in showing that they are compliant. Typically, they may show us as not compliant even when we are. Typically, we find that it takes a couple of hours or a couple of days at worst for the machines to show as being compliant for them to settle down, but generally, it does what it says on the tin. We can set the policy, and we can put a machine or put a device into a group. That policy gets defined or pushed out, and it works. We can then move on to the next job. From my perspective, it works well, and that's why I'm just looking forward to using more Azure technologies moving forward.

It's deployed across multiple locations, departments, teams, and endpoints.

I haven't had any experience with them.

At the moment, we're using VMware AirWatch, which isn't my first choice purely because it's a super segmented platform. We are predominantly, about 95%, Microsoft. It feels a bit of an oversight not having a solution on a Microsoft platform where we've got full transparency and can make live changes. Currently, we have to go through our outsourced IT to make the changes and then we have to wait to see those changes rather than me or a colleague being able to make those changes in a live environment, so it would be my personal preference to get that moved over, which we're looking at. 

I wasn't a party to why they used AirWatch. I presume it was bundled in with the Microsoft service partner's offering originally. The IT team here is quite new. I've only been in the post for about a month, and my IT manager has only been in the post for about two months. We're just making sure that everything is easy to use and easy to manage, and it's cost-efficient for the charity moving forward.

Essentially, the way it was set up, it wasn't set up as a hybrid model. At the moment, we have got on-premises, and we have a cloud, but they're not joined. There is no passthrough, which is interesting. A lot of the on-premise has been copied over to the cloud. We are now taking the cloud to default, and the overall plan is to mothball the servers and reuse those as very high-powered desktops wherever possible. I just predominantly use the cloud.

I was not involved in its deployment, but in terms of maintenance, typically, our MSP makes the changes, but I've got GA rights to make anything that is critical. Generally, there are about 20 people at the Microsoft solution partner, and there are four of us on the IT team. There are less than 30 people in total.

I'm not sure. Certainly, it has been at least three years since the software has been rolled out, but it's not particularly well maintained by the solution partner. So, it's hard to measure the ROI. It does have merit, but in our particular sector, it's just overkill. We just need to make small and light changes whilst having effective security. We don't need corporate class, biometric/conditional access level security. Whilst we have multiple offices, they're very small. They're all under 20 users, and there's a lot of work from home. So, as long as we've got encryption, a form of AV, an anti-spam, and good account security, it certainly staves off a lot of the threats.

Personally, I feel that we haven't had the ROI purely because we're paying about £13,000 for under 300 users a year, which is a little bit top-sized. My personal feeling is to make a business case to switch to Microsoft Defender. Obviously, we've got P1 in our business premium licensing, so we've got a very basic protection at the moment that we don't use. We've got a large number of credits, and we could use those credits to switch over for a year to a higher project and see where we go from there.

Generally, it's not too bad. Obviously, a cheaper price would be great. Typically, we are in touch with the partner to provide non-profit discounts wherever possible. Generally, we get favorable discounts, so it's not too bad. Obviously, we're looking at decreasing those wherever we can to bring value back to the public purse because it's all charity based. It's all publicly funded.

Create a test group and create test policies, and then just test, test, and test before anything is rolled. It's the usual IT gambit. Test everything, and then just test it again before you roll it out.

I worked for a couple of MSPs before. I've seen it in very remote areas. I'm very impressed with it. Whilst it seems almost fashionable to criticize Microsoft, Intune is pretty much a well-laid-out product. It does what it says it's going to do. There is a lot of dependence on Microsoft products being pushed to it, and that's probably my only criticism. It would be good if Intune was a bit more open-source, but that would lead to more complications. It's a bit of a complicated beast, but generally, I like it.

I'd rate Microsoft Intune a nine out of ten. I'm happy with it.

We use the solution for BYOD, MDM, and to access Microsoft applications like Teams. Microsoft Intune helps us access Microsoft applications on the road and mobile.

The solution’s most valuable feature is its ease of use.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for about three years.

Microsoft Intune is a very scalable solution. Around 4,000 users use the solution in our organization.

A third-party vendor helped us set up the solution in six months.

We have a large amount of our population using the applications on their phones. Microsoft Intune definitely helps with productivity and efficiency. The solution brings value to the money we pay for it.

Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses. The pricing is very good, as it is not an additional cost to what we already need for our organization as a whole.

Microsoft Intune brings all our endpoint and security management tools into one place for mobile. We work closely with security, which mostly implements the overall rules on what users should be able to do, how the new data is encrypted, and how secure data can't leave the Intune environment. It's easy to go into Intune and apply all of those policies and have them work for you.

I would assess Microsoft Intune very highly for securing hybrid work and protecting company data via BYOD devices. I think it's very secure. Everyone in IT has to be available during off hours to make sure that everyone can see what's going on if there's an emergency.

Since Microsoft Intune has been incorporated into our Microsoft E5 licenses, our organization has saved costs compared to using other EMM providers. Microsoft Intune is a comprehensive solution that has a lot of features and manages all your endpoints.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We support other companies in managing their devices. Right now, we have multiple projects wherein we are only utilizing the Windows aspect of Intune, but for some of the other organizations, we are utilizing Android and iOS features. For most of the projects that I am working on, the use case is autopilot enrollment, and for iOS, it is through ABM.

One of the most common requests that we get is that most of the users are still on-prem. They need to be moved to the cloud, but they do not want to lose the data on-prem. The basic request that we get is to get co-management enabled for on-prem and the cloud for managing devices. The basic request from every organization I have worked with so far is to get a hybrid or the same management scenario. This is what we utilize Intune for.

All the device information is available in one place. We can see which profiles are being used and other things. If I want to get any information about a device, I just have to select it, and it shows me everything that I want about the device.

As an admin, we have different privileges to a user. In terms of user experience, it is quite easy. It is easy to understand. They have been making a lot of changes to the layout and the categorization. It is much easier and user-friendly. Overall, it has been a pleasant experience to use the portal. Everything is categorized in such a manner that it is easy to understand and navigate.

Advanced endpoint analytics are certainly used in almost all the projects that I have worked on because the security baseline is a very crucial part of configuring all those things in one single place. Apart from that, other profiles are also configured.

It is quite handy. For the general device configuration, we might have to create multiple profiles for different things. When it comes to the security baseline, multiple components are configured into a single policy. That makes configurations easier to handle and easier to change in the future if required. One thing about endpoint analysis that can be an issue is that there is an imprinting policy. Sometimes for some of the components, even if I change the policy, it would not make the change in the device. The policy gets tattooed on the device.

The Cloud PKI helps manage the complexity of certificate infrastructure. It makes work much simpler. The configuration that needs to be done is much simpler.

It makes application deployment and management easy on a device. It is easy to get them packaged and pushed out. Applications are available in the first sync itself. It is pretty easy to do that with Intune.

In terms of integration, so far, we have set up co-management features with SAPM, and it has been going well. The settings are pretty easily understandable. We can do them easily. The setup is smooth. In case of any issues, the logs and troubleshooting are very simplified. It gives pretty accurate information. The APM portal can also be very easily configured. The steps about what to do next are available in the Intune portal itself. It works well with other consoles.

I would assess Intune highly for securing hybrid work and protecting data on company and BYO devices. I would rate it a nine out of ten for this.

As an admin, Intune has made life much easier. Any information about a device is available in one console. We do not have to navigate to multiple portals to see what is going on. The console gives us the answer. Intune gives us information about the error and the possible reason for it to happen. We can see the device status and whether it is syncing. Everything is available in one single source. As an admin, it makes my life easier.

Intune has made the transition from on-prem to the cloud a smoother and simpler experience. We do not even have to make a complete transition. If we want to set up co-management where both of them are in the picture, Intune does a great job in helping out the admins to manage those devices.

In the recent upgrade, I feel the portal has become much more user-friendly. The navigation, the keys, and the settings are easy to find. It is easy to understand. As compared to the previous versions or SCCM, it is very handy. Apart from that, we have many configuration profiles. They have been introduced over the course of time. We had put in the request for them. Some aspects that were not available previously are available now. It keeps improving over time, which is beneficial.

Reporting needs to be better. Sometimes, it is way too slow, and it is not even accurate. Reporting is one aspect about which we have received a lot of complaints. As an admin, I cannot rely on its reporting.

Another feature that can be improved is audit logs. There should be more details in the audit logs.

We have been using it for almost four years.

I would rate it an eight out of ten for stability. I do not believe that any product is completely stable given the fact there is always something new that comes into the market, so it has to go through changes. You never know what those changes might be and whether a release is compatible with certain devices, etc.

We have more than 100 users. Our clients are large enterprises.

We have had a mixed experience. Sometimes we get an engineer who is extremely aware of what is going on and is very quick with the resolution. We get an answer quickly, and the ticket gets closed quickly. However, sometimes we get an engineer who prolongs the case to an unnecessary time frame. We might get an email in six to seven days. We need to keep chasing them about the update. Their support can be improved.

Neutral

I have worked with SCCM which is a Microsoft product. I have not worked on any other similar solution.

We have a combination of cloud and on-prem. We do have GPOs in the picture. We also have cloud users. We have Windows 365 devices. It is a combination of both so far.

Its deployment is pretty straightforward. They provide the details or info in the portal itself, so it is not very difficult. You do not have to go searching for the information.

The initial setup does not take time. Setting up an account for the organization rarely takes five minutes or so, but the time taken for doing the setup for the entire organization, which includes setting up policies and other things, would vary. It depends on the number of activities that need to be performed.

It does not require much maintenance from our side. Over time, they provide new releases that fix the issues that have been stated in our health control section.

Based on the features that it gives, it is cost-efficient. It is not necessarily on the expensive side of the scale. It provides a hefty number of features that any organization would want. It is in a good price range.

Intune does not necessarily bring all of the endpoint and security management tools into one place because there is a role of connectors in Intune that need to be enabled in order to get other accesses. Things like Defender, Compliance, and Purview need to be managed in the device in itself. I do not necessarily see it bringing everything into the same picture, but it does act like a mediator with those connector options.

With the projects in hand, we are mainly focusing on applications and Windows. I have not had an opportunity to explore it much when it comes to iOS and Linux. We are not using the Enterprise Application Management features of Intune Suite. We have done the configuration via Azure.

We are testing out Microsoft Copilot in Intune. We have not had many opportunities to use it.

To a colleague at another company who wants to know what I think about Microsoft Intune Suite, I would say to definitely go for it. I have seen multiple portals, and Intune goes way far. In terms of features and interface, Intune is much superior to any other console that I have seen so far. It is easy. It has many configurations. It is easily understandable. Everything is good about it, and it is growing with time. Within a span of a few months or weeks, you might see a new update, a new configuration profile, or a new system that could be managed. Some kind of new feature is always coming up.

I would recommend Intune to others. If anyone comes to me with any questions or concerns, the first thing I ask is how they are managing their devices. If they are using anything apart from Intune, my suggestion is to use Intune.

Overall, I would rate Intune a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft Intune to manage our computers and users and enforce organizational policies on the computers. We wanted to remove our in-house service and move device management from on-premise to the tool. This helped us manage devices for staff who don't come to the office across locations. Before, when we had policy changes, they weren't always applied or enforced for remote staff in time. We needed a better solution, and Microsoft Intune worked well for our needs.

What I like most about the tool is that it's now very easy to set up a device for someone to use. It also helps us tremendously in managing security.

Before, we used on-premise management with a domain controller. It was difficult to manage security comprehensively. For example, it was hard to know which computers were updated. We weren't able to do that easily with our previous solution.

Having all our endpoint and security management tools in one place with the product has made things very easy and efficient for us. Before, it was sometimes difficult to know what problems a device had. But now, we can see any issues or vulnerabilities on a device. We can also easily apply any needed updates.

I find the tool's user experience very good for the admin side. It's easy to use—you only need a browser and can work from anywhere. This makes it very convenient for us admins to provide support from any location.

It's now much easier for end users to provision a device. Wherever the person is, we can get them to sign in to their account for the first time. This is a big improvement because previously, the person would have had to be physically in the office to use the organization's domain for the first time. Now, it's become much simpler for them to get set up.

The main benefit of using Microsoft Intune is that we can now provide support from anywhere. One major problem we had before was when we needed to give someone an admin password. Now, we can give the password to the person and then change it immediately. This has been very helpful, especially since we have many people working remotely. 

We have situations where people have to use their devices to access organizational resources. One of our issues was when someone had to use a personal device to access organizational resources. How are we sure that the right person is using it? How can we control the resource? Now, if you want to use your device, we don't have any issues. We enroll it, and if we need to wipe our resources, we can do it. So it helps us in that area.

The solution's impact on productivity has been tremendous because now we can manage everything. Before, with the old solution, sometimes our server would give us problems. Now, Microsoft handles all that, so we don't have to spend time fixing server issues. This allows us to focus on specific issues for individual users.

Maintaining servers, backups, and related costs was a huge cost for a small organization. Now, with Microsoft Intune, you scale as needed. We don't need to spend too much on servers and their associated costs, which has been very good for us.

Applying security recommendations can be difficult in Microsoft Intune. Sometimes, they give you recommendations, but you need a different server to manage the pieces, or you have to go to each device individually. However, it has been improving. Before, there were certain policies you could not implement directly in Intune, but now I see progress. I would like to see more improvement in policy management, similar to how we used group policies on-premises.

I have been using the product for five to seven years. 

I rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten. 

The solution is used in two regions. In Ghana, we have about 100 users; in the second location, we have another 70. It is scalable. 

The solution's support is not straightforward. They do not provide the solutions that we expect them to provide. 

Neutral

Before using Microsoft Intune, we used Google for Business. We switched because Microsoft provided us with almost everything in one place, making it easier to manage everything centrally. Using Microsoft alone was more efficient than bringing in Microsoft at some points while using Google.

The tool's deployment is straightforward. We conducted a two-month pilot and then completed the device migration in two weeks with the help of three resources. 

One person came with the license, and two resources were in-house. 

The solution helps to save costs by 20 percent. Implementing Microsoft Intune has made us use less IT software for security. Before, we had to rely on expensive third-party security solutions that didn't consider our size. With the product, we can manage everything at a fraction of the cost, focusing on user licenses. We've seen a return on investment with it, especially during the COVID period, as we could get everything done without issues. Overall, Intune has saved us about 50% in time and resources.

The solution is cost-efficient. 

We're not using Microsoft Intune Suite's enterprise application management feature. We're using the business line version, which doesn't have all the features of the enterprise version. However, it provides us with updates on vulnerabilities and recommendations on the security side. 

For anyone considering the product, I would tell them to consider it if they want to have peace of mind and be able to give their best. Microsoft Copilot is on our roadmap for next year. 

Microsoft 365 and Microsoft security must be integrated for cloud and co-managed devices. This integration makes it easy to apply solutions from one point and have them work across the system. If we were using different systems, we would need to grant permission for them to communicate, which could cause issues. It helps to spend less time getting the work done. As for maintenance, I haven't noticed anything required on my part.

I would recommend Intune, especially if you're not a large enterprise that can afford various tools from various vendors. Microsoft products make it very easy to run your business and have control and visibility. Sometimes, you don't know what's happening in your environment, and Microsoft Intune helps you understand what is happening. Overall, I would rate it a seven out of ten.

We manage all our client devices, including Windows laptops, MacBooks, iPhones, iPads, and Android devices, using Microsoft Intune.

We regularly survey our users to gather feedback on their experience with device enrollment and app installation. The feedback we have received so far has been positive.

Intune is good at securing hybrid work and BYOD. There are a few gaps but we can manage those with other tools.

Microsoft Security Signals within Intune is an effective tool. It allows us to restrict access to specific systems or resources for certain devices based on their risk score. We can also prevent access for other devices that don't meet a specific risk threshold until their score improves.

It has enabled our IT team to use their tools more effectively.

Intune streamlines our endpoint management by consolidating multiple vendors into a single platform. With Intune, we can now manage features like the Windows Defender firewall and disk encryption directly, eliminating the need for separate third-party products. This simplifies our management process and potentially reduces costs.

The vendor consolidation has helped to reduce our licensing costs.

It is extremely important to us that the Microsoft Intune suite is integrated with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security. We're looking at consolidating more systems and solutions into our Microsoft licensing because of how easily it integrates. 

While Microsoft Intune boasts a wide range of features, its user-friendliness and bundled licensing cost are key considerations for me.

The licensing has room for improvement.

It would be great if Intune offered better data protection controls for BYOD Windows PCs.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for four years.

While Microsoft Intune is generally stable, there are recurring issues with deploying Microsoft 365 apps through Intune. These outages occur around the same time each month.

I would rate the scalability of Intune a nine out of ten.

While the technical support team is generally good, there have been instances where feedback sent to the product group has resulted in delayed or absent responses. This can be frustrating, especially when requesting new features or clarifying existing ones. It would be beneficial to establish a clearer communication channel with the product group to ensure timely responses and address customer concerns efficiently.

Previously, we used Workspace ONE. While I find Intune to be generally better, there are still some specific areas where Workspace ONE offers functionalities that Intune currently lacks. Additionally, Workspace ONE was significantly faster for generating reports. However, I acknowledge that Intune has undergone significant improvements over the past year and a half, and it's steadily approaching the level it needs to be. Nevertheless, there's still room for further improvement.

The implementation was completed in-house.

The current licensing model separates essential features into higher-tier subscriptions, requiring additional purchases. Ideally, all functionalities should be included in a single bundled license.

I would rate Microsoft Intune eight out of ten.

We rely on Intune for device management and leverage other tools for security.

Additional maintenance is required to deal with the monthly outages.

I recommend using Intune for endpoint management. It's important to familiarize yourself with the product beforehand. Researching endpoint management via Intune and reviewing Microsoft's online recommendations is crucial for successful implementation within your organization.
