Microsoft Intune Reviews

It depends on the use case and what the client is looking for in terms of requirements. They will share the requirements with us, and we will check the feasibility of the solutions and then propose which MDM will be best suited for the client. If they only ask for managing their barcode devices or POS devices, we can go with SOTI.

When managing smartphones or applications, Microsoft Intune is a good solution.

We are combining Microsoft Intune with SOTI, Workspace ONE, and Microsoft Intune.

Microsoft Intune is a tool designed for enterprise customers to protect enterprise data from leakage or sharing.

The app protection policies and the application management part of Microsoft Intune are powerful.

The main benefits Microsoft Intune provides to users are access to their corporate world. They can access their emails, applications, and content through OneDrive. These are the core functionalities. They can publish line of business applications with Microsoft Intune. If they have developed their in-house application, they can publish it. They can use additional features such as tunnels and other capabilities from Microsoft Intune.

We use enterprise application management in Microsoft Intune. The security part of the application can be managed through enterprise application management. We can block cut, copy, paste, and sharing data from one app to any third-party application.

Using Microsoft Intune Suite Cloud makes the management process much easier.

A potential area of improvement for Microsoft Intune is that the content management part needs enhancement. We have OneDrive, and the OneDrive integration is present, but other tools such as Workspace ONE have better features available, such as publishing internal repositories.

Content management is one of the additional functions I would suggest Microsoft add to Microsoft Intune. The smart group feature would be beneficial because if you have only Microsoft Intune related access or Microsoft Intune admin access, you cannot create groups or users. Having functionality to create smart groups or virtual groups and adding users to those groups would be much better than the functionality available in Workspace ONE.

We have been working with Microsoft Intune for around six years.

The stability of Microsoft Intune rates around 8.

The ability of scaling or expanding the Microsoft Intune solution is very high. Being cloud-based, we can expand it at any moment.

The support from Microsoft was previously good, but now it is very poor. I would give a rating around four, not more than that.

The main issue with the support is the quality of work. They spend a week of time to resolve small issues, which is not acceptable.

Currently, when we discuss competitors, Workspace ONE is one of them and a good competitor for Microsoft Intune.

Setting up Microsoft Intune is easy, but if enterprise customers ask for additional functionality related to certificate publishing or line of business application publishing, then we need to deploy different connectors as well, which becomes more complex.

The choice of solution depends on client requirements. If they ask for an on-premise solution, then Microsoft Intune would not be suitable, and we would recommend another solution such as Workspace ONE or SOTI MobiControl. If the client is comfortable with a cloud solution, then we will recommend Microsoft Intune after understanding their requirements, management needs, and policy requirements.

Microsoft Intune is a cloud-based solution with no on-premise option, available only on Azure cloud.

We use Microsoft Intune Suite Cloud PKI as it is a cloud-based platform.

We have Copilot integrated with Microsoft Intune, though I am not an SME for Copilot as there are different teams. I take care of Microsoft Intune and MDM related tasks.

I am not using analytics in Microsoft Intune currently. I am using the Graph APIs for fetching data from the backend of Microsoft Intune.

On a scale of 1-10, I rate Microsoft Intune a nine.

We separate users on mobile phones from users on other spaces. 

I really appreciate the features in Microsoft Intune, including the Intune Suite Cloud PKI. 

The main benefits that Microsoft Intune provides for me include data safety.

My main pain point for Microsoft Intune is the contact part. Not all Android or iOS applications have access to integration, for example, contacts. 

Another area I would want to improve in Microsoft Intune is the pricing. 

I have been working with Microsoft Intune for four to five months as a new user.

I would rate the stability of Microsoft Intune as fairly stable.

I have no issues with the scalability and ability to expand Microsoft Intune.

I have never contacted technical support from Microsoft.

Positive

We solely work within the Microsoft environment. 

The setup of Intune is easy; however, getting used to it is not.

We purchased the solution directly from Microsoft. I find the price for Microsoft Intune too high, which represents an area for improvement in Microsoft's pricing model.

We did not compare the solution to any other vendor.

We are using SharePoint as object storage, and for file storage, we are using Azure for verification and authentication services. I would not be able to tell you more about what we are using on the back side, however, Microsoft Intune is being used.

I personally am not working with the integration of Copilot with Microsoft Intune.

I can recommend Microsoft Intune for everyone, whether they are small, mid-size, or enterprise-level companies.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight.

Intune is suitable for everyone. It's good for companies of all sizes. I'd recommend Intune to other users.

We use Microsoft Intune to manage all devices, including Windows devices, Android, and iOS. We have fully managed Android devices or dedicated Android devices, and RealWear glasses. 

Everything that we used to do with Microsoft System Center as an on-premise solution, we migrated to a cloud solution with Microsoft Intune. We are using Autopilot for device management, and for iOS, we use the ABM to include our devices in Microsoft Intune. We are using Microsoft Intune as our standard solution for managing devices.

We utilize Microsoft Copilot in Microsoft Intune and use autopilot to provide user flexibility in device provisioning without requiring IT team involvement. Users can install needed applications from the Company Portal independently. Our machine distributors perform pre-provisioning at the factory, which expedites the process for users.

Microsoft Intune effectively secures hybrid work environments. For data protection, we implement BitLocker.

Microsoft Intune has impacted IT productivity in our organization. The physical team has mixed feelings because they traditionally handled device provisioning, and now fewer people are needed for this task. However, enabling users to perform tasks independently without IT team intervention has improved overall productivity.

Microsoft Intune saves us time, though I cannot provide exact metrics since I don't track this specifically. It is more efficient to have one solution rather than having security parts spread across three, four, or five solutions. 

The user experience with Microsoft Intune is excellent because we can manage users and maintain security and policies anywhere they are. If users have a problem, they can factory reset and start the provisioning again without needing to return to the office. This provides flexibility and improves the experience for users.

The reporting functionality of Microsoft Intune is limited compared to Microsoft System Center, which offers many more reporting options. We also encounter some information inaccuracies that require verification using PowerShell scripts and other tools. We maintain close communication with Microsoft through our support contract and consistently provide feedback to improve the solution.

I have used Microsoft Intune since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. It has been five years.

We would rate Microsoft's support an eight out of ten.

Positive

While I don't have access to high-level financial information, I believe we have achieved lower costs with this implementation.

We migrated some devices from Soti MobiControl to Microsoft Intune. My manager has requested a comparison between these two tools. We currently use Microsoft Intune and plan to discontinue Soti Mobicontrol use, but we are conducting a final comparative analysis before making this transition.

Overall, I would rate Microsoft Intune as eight out of ten. While I greatly appreciate the solution, some information inconsistencies and issues still need to be addressed by Microsoft.

My main use cases for Microsoft Intune are to manage devices, remotely wipe lost devices, and enforce device security.

Microsoft Intune has definitely reduced management burdens. It has helped us significantly. 

Microsoft Intune has changed my customers' abilities regarding app discovery, deployment, and automatic updating. They use it extensively.

The feature of remotely wiping devices in Microsoft Intune is what I prefer the most. When employees come and go, we can remotely wipe devices. This is what we primarily use it for.

In terms of the admin experience, it is straightforward, but the Windows enrollment experience could be improved. Sometimes, for enrollment, we have to reset devices and re-enroll them. Just configuring Windows, Azure, or Active Directory doesn't enroll the devices. We need easy enrollment for Windows.

Microsoft Intune can be improved by integrating Lighthouse and making it easier for partners to manage customer devices. They have remote help in Microsoft Intune, but they charge a license for it. For partners who manage thousands of devices, they should not charge, as it could be integrated with Lighthouse to provide remote support and better help customers.

It is at times slow. It takes time in the backend whenever we push out enterprise apps or reset devices.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for approximately five years.

Microsoft Intune meets my needs for scaling and is scalable.

It's good. We pay for premium support, so we receive good support.

Positive

We also experimented with Google's solution before choosing Microsoft Intune. The main difference was that Google only supports Chromebook and doesn't handle Windows, so we use Microsoft Intune for Windows.

The return on investment when using Microsoft Intune is good. It has been helpful for us and our customers. 

It's bundled with Business Premium and an E3 license, which is beneficial. If you have to pay extra, it's pricey, but with the bundled package, it's acceptable. They recently increased the Business Premium pricing, which we don't appreciate. The price increase and yearly commitment are causing some problems for us.

We considered TeamViewer. We went for Intune because it is included with our Business Premium licensing, so we don't have to pay extra for it.

I would rate Microsoft Intune an eight out of ten. To make Microsoft Intune a perfect ten, they could provide remote help for partners with Lighthouse, make it easier to enroll all devices, and make it faster.

Our primary use case for Intune has been securing our desktops. We now also use it to secure our servers, which started about a year ago.

Before, we used to reactively track down issues and fix security holes. Now, we're more proactive, stopping threats before they occur rather than reactively removing them afterward. This change helps stop the spreading of security issues.

Intune's integration with Defender and other security solutions is valuable because it offers a view into different security vulnerabilities and enables us to secure them more effectively. It's easy to use. There isn't a huge learning curve. It doesn't take long to get in and figure out where everything is. 

The application management feature's automatic updates help a lot, especially when we need to push updated scripts and apps to our desktops. We can update quickly instead of getting everybody to download and install it. 

Intune's server management could be better. If it could incorporate more features from System Center into Intune's Configuration Manager, it would be beneficial.

I've been using Microsoft Intune for about seven years.

There are no problems with Intune's stability. 

Scalability is great. We've had no issues scaling it across different environments, managing multiple Office 365 tenants and servers with no problems.

We used System Center Configuration Manager before moving to Intune. It's essentially an upgrade that allows us to manage both desktops and servers.

The initial setup had some issues, primarily with understanding scattered documentation, but it was resolved without much difficulty.

We deployed Intune in-house with our internal IT staff.

We are saving at least two or three hours a day since implementing Intune.

I don't have any information on pricing, setup costs, or licensing.

We did not evaluate other options before choosing Intune.

I rate Intune 10 out of 10.

Our company has consistently used Microsoft products. As the mobile device administrator, I oversaw the transition from Workspace ONE to Microsoft Intune. This decision stemmed from a desire to reduce licensing costs by leveraging existing Microsoft licenses held by all employees, ultimately leading to significant financial savings.

Intune consolidates endpoint and security management tools into a single platform. This centralized approach allows for specialized roles while maintaining a shared understanding of the complete security solution.

Intune's overall user experience is good.

Intune's most valuable feature is its centralized management capability.

The enterprise application management system for mobile devices is effective for app discovery, deployment, and automatic updates. The automatic update feature functions well, eliminating the need for manual updates and individual prompts, which is convenient for both administrators and users.

Intune has made things easier for us because we are using Autopilot to build our laptops.

We've saved a lot of money by moving from Workspace ONE to Microsoft Intune for mobiles.

I've recently started using Microsoft Intune, specifically its mobile device management features. While both Intune and Workspace ONE offer similar functionality, I've noticed that Workspace ONE operates in real-time, whereas Intune has a noticeable delay when deploying policies or apps. The time we have to wait to deploy policies has room for improvement.

People using Intune for Windows deployment, etcetera, can get annoyed because of the Windows updates.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for three months because we've just moved over.

From a mobile perspective, Microsoft Intune has been stable.

From a mobile perspective, Microsoft Intune is easily scalable.

I have contacted technical support only once, and it was very helpful.

Positive

We used VMware Workspace ONE previously. The decision to switch and save on costs was made by the higher-ups.

I would rate Microsoft Intune nine out of ten.

I would definitely recommend Intune to a colleague. It provides a centralized platform for managing various devices, including laptops, desktops, and mobile devices, and seamlessly integrates with other Microsoft solutions like Azure and Active Directory.

We have a team that continuously works on solutions to make workflows smooth, like building laptops and ensuring deployments work smoothly.

Microsoft Intune is deployed across various departments and locations within our local government council. We have different physical sites and departments, and Intune is managed and implemented at the departmental level.

Our team is continuously developing solutions to streamline the laptop production workflow, including assembly, traffic management, and deployment. We also have a separate team dedicated to ensuring the process runs smoothly.

We use endpoint management, both SCCM and Intune, so it is a hybrid model that we use in order to manage applications, patching, updates, and operating system deployment with Intune. We also use Autopilot for deployment.

Intune has been effective in managing various mobile devices. It would be Apple Business Manager for Apple devices, the iOS tray. It's easier to manage from Intune compared to Android. I've recently heard that Android devices will no longer be managed from Intune. The MDM part is moving away.

Intune's app management feature for supporting business operations is very easy and seamless for an admin to package applications on Intune. It's also very easy to track logs on the end-user device to understand deployment or push failures. Application management works really seamlessly with Intune.

Moreover, Intune has made it very easy to package and deploy LOB apps like MSI and MSI X applications available on the Microsoft Store. This is very helpful.

Intune brings all of the endpoint and security management tools into one place. Microsoft has integrated all its cloud platforms, like Defender for Endpoint and Intune for endpoint management. We can easily manage the Defender part from the Defender portal for endpoints, and it's very easy to track vulnerabilities on the Defender portal as well. 

It's just a matter of installing the Defender client on a device, and we can easily see all the scan results from that device on the portal. So it's very easy and simple, and the security information is all on the dashboard, ready to be presented to the client.

Automatic updating can be challenging for apps not available on the Microsoft Store. We need to package and download those apps, and it's not just pushing them; we need to create scripts to uninstall previous versions. That's a caveat compared to SCCM, where we can integrate third-party tools to manage third-party applications. I hope they will soon integrate something like Patch My PC. Apart from that, it's good.

We don't use the advanced endpoint analytics but, we use the basic features available on the dashboard. We have various data sources and get a lot of reports from there.

We also don't use Intune PKI as of now because we manage PKI from our on-prem environment. But we have seen that BYO CA (Bring Your Own CA) is now available on Intune. We can bring our own CA to reduce the load on the on-prem infrastructure. That's one of the features we need to test.

Overall, Intune provides a more secure and easily monitored environment, with live and native support, unlike other tools. For example, we might get data that is seven days old with other tools, but with Intune, we get data that's only eight hours old. This helps us understand what applications run on a particular machine and which operating system is installed. Intune has saved us time and provides valuable features.

The best features are application and update management. In the context of updates, it's very easy to manage device updates through Intune because they pull updates directly from the internet. We don't have to select and push updates as we do with SCCM. 

For application management, we have many options for packaging applications. 

The overall user experience of Microsoft Intune a ten out of ten. There are certain limitations, but I would still rate it ten out of ten compared to Jamf, Tanium, and BigFix. I find Intune far better and easier to use.

I also tested the enterprise application management feature. The way we are packaging using Windows 32 apps and LOB apps. These are pretty simple to manage.

We recently introduced Copilot on Microsoft 365 portal to help draft emails. We were highly dependent on Grammarly before, but Copilot has replaced it and saved us the licensing cost. That's one way we use Copilot.

Copilot won't protect our environment. It's just an AI tool. Defender is responsible for protecting our environment. Copilot can answer our questions quickly, without needing to browse through Google or a browser. It's integrated into almost every application. We can click on it and ask our questions.

Copilot has reduced the load of typing. We can just give it a brief instruction, like "draft an email to my manager regarding a new joiner," and it generates a draft. This saves us time and typing effort. We just need to proofread it.

We've only seen Copilot so far. We haven't tested any other AI tools in Intune yet. Copilot is very useful, and it's a Microsoft product.

The challenge we experience is with Mac management. We find Intune not capable enough to handle Mac devices, configurations, or operating system deployments. However, it's easy to manage Windows devices. Mac itself has a lot of restrictions. Linux and Mac operating system compatibility need improvement. Also, they need to work on making GPO (Group Policy Objects) compatible.

Microsoft needs to work on Autopilot and make it simpler at the end-user level.

We also face challenges managing group policy. Many group policy objects that we can manage from on-prem Active Directory can't be managed through Intune. That's something Microsoft needs to work on, and I'm sure they will.

I have been using it for more than four years. 

It is a stable solution. I would rate it a nine out of ten.

Everyone in our organization uses this solution. But, for the project I am involved in, just 15 people use it. 

We have medium to enterprise businesses as our clients. 

I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten.

The customer service and support are average. Sometimes I feel they don't even know about their product. 

Neutral

I can compare it to Tanium. When I was doing a POC in place of Intune, we needed to compare other tools as well. Tanium is a good tool, but I can't find any other tool that can replace Intune with so many features.

I like the user-friendliness of Intune's GUI and the fact that we get so many features under one roof has attracted our attention.

The deployment of Intune depends on the environment in which it is being deployed. In our case, it was pretty simple because we didn't have much insight. However, depending on the requirements of a different environment, it can become complex.

The deployment takes a couple of months would be a good estimate. You need to plan everything and then execute, and migration is involved.

Intune works seamlessly with Microsoft Defender. With other security solutions, we see a lot of challenges. It depends on the complexity and scale of the environment. But it's really compatible with Defender and Intune integrates well with other security solutions.

Intune requires maintenance. It requires internet access because we need to manage certificates, check on the DMF file, and clean up stale devices.

It has helped admins immensely in order to manage those endpoint devices. With other tools, the device needs to be on the office network or VPN. Intune removes this dependency. 

We can manage devices through the internet, and we won't miss any devices that are offline.

It has saved 60% of our time. I can't put an estimate on cost savings, but it has saved a huge cost because we don't have to manage infrastructure anymore.

It's a little expensive, but it's worth having.

Compared to other tools in the market, Intune is a good tool to go with. It's a little expensive, but it's really good because we have almost everything under the same umbrella. The features that Microsoft offers are not available in BigFix, Tanium, or Canvas. But it also depends on your budget.

I would definitely recommend it. We get promoted features, and it's easy to use. The ease of use is really attractive for admins, especially compared to other tools.

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

I work for a company that deploys all of its iOS and Android devices on Intune. It can manage company and personal mobile devices. We have 150,000 users.

It helps us secure hybrid work. Some users work on company devices at the company, and some use personal devices. We have set app configuration and protection policies in Intune.

When customers travel, they carry their tablets or cell phones, so they need to access corporate resources, such as emails, chats, and files. Instead of carrying their laptops, they can easily access corporate services from their tablets or mobile phones. 

Intune increases productivity by 80 to 85 percent. Since adding Intune, our budget has increased. We are trying a few new things, and corporate is doing data testing. We've also had to purchase more licenses. The budget has increased, but it's worth it. 

We can implement a MAM policy in this Intune and protect the device through mobile application development without touching it. The interface is easy to use and understand. 

Microsoft brings all my endpoint and security tools into one place. Intune and endpoint manager are there. We can control our devices at the maximum level. I'm fully satisfied with Intune. 

With the application management feature, we can manage Google Play and publish applications from there. Per user requirements, we can deploy applications to Intune and to the user machines.

We had an APNS certificate set to expire last week. We tried to renew it two days before it expired. We logged in to the APNS portal but could not find that certificate.

We didn't know where it went. All the iOS devices stopped working. We contacted the Apple and Microsoft teams, and each blamed the other. This is something that Microsoft should take care of. Last week, we had so many escalations from high-profile users who couldn't access corporate data on their devices.

I have used Intune for more than two years.

I rate Intune 10 out of 10 for stability. We've had no issues.

I rate Intune 10 out of 10 for scalability.

I rate Microsoft support seven out of 10. When Microsoft support engineers can't resolve an issue, they refer it to the technical department, which will come back in a month. Then, you have to explain the entire issue from the start. 

Neutral

Before Intune, we used IBM MaaS360. Intune is more flexible. With the IBM product, we had to contact their product team to make any changes. Intune is more customizable. 

The deployment is a little complex. We previously had an on-premises data center, but we have migrated everything to the cloud in the past six months. Implementing Intune took months. We have two data centers: Bangalore and Kolkata. Migrating a lot of data was a lot of work. After deployment, it requires no maintenance.

Intune isn't cheap, but it's fairly priced.

I tried the AWS but the user interface is not as good as Intune's.

I rate Microsoft Intune eight out of 10.
