Microsoft Intune Reviews

We use Microsoft Intune to enroll devices in our environment, install software, and monitor security patches.

In the past, our cumbersome OSD installation model using images made it difficult for IT to track installations and required users to visit the help desk for reinstallation. However, with Intune, employees can now conveniently manage installations themselves.

I have no complaints about the Intune user experience.

I appreciate Intune's Autopilot feature, which allows us to enroll devices and install applications to meet corporate requirements seamlessly.

I would like to see Intune improve its handling of hybrid domain joins. We continue to experience issues with machines losing their hybrid domain join status.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for several years now.

Intune's stability has been generally good, although recent issues caused devices to stop checking in and become unmanageable. We hope this is resolved before we begin redeployment.

Intune's scalability appears satisfactory, as we have not experienced any scaling issues.

Support has become more challenging to navigate over the past couple of years. It takes some effort to engage the right level of support, but once the right person is contacted, support works well.

Neutral

Before Intune, we used the OSD image approach. We switched to Intune for end-user ease of use and to lessen the burden on support teams.

The initial setup was fairly straightforward.

We did the implementation in-house ourselves.

We did not evaluate other solutions because Intune was included with our Microsoft 365 solution.

Overall, I like Intune as a solution and would rate it nine out of ten. The rating isn't a ten because we haven't enrolled our entire environment in it yet, but so far, it looks promising. It might reach a ten at some point.

We have over 50,000 employees and 75,000 machines.

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.

I used Microsoft Intune for compliance policies, configuration policies, and Intune enrollment.

We implemented Microsoft Intune to manage mobile devices in bulk and enforce management policies.

Intune was deployed in a hybrid environment. Devices were initially onboarded to Azure Active Directory and then enrolled in Intune. All devices originated from a local Active Directory.

Intune brought all of our endpoint and security management tools into one place. 

Having our endpoint and security management tools in one place saves time, and I have most of the information in one dashboard.

From an administrative and user standpoint, Intune offers a beneficial and secure user experience.

I have had a great experience with enterprise application management for app discovery, deployment, and automatic updating because it automates all the procedures.

Intune improved our data governance, security, central management, and policy application. I realized these benefits after two to three months of seeing how Intune works.

Intune effectively secures hybrid work environments and safeguards company data, especially on BYOD devices. Through Intune, we can monitor all devices accessing company data and manage them centrally, which is crucial.

Intune affected IT productivity in our organization by governing company data, securing global data, and saving time, all through central management.

It helped our organization save 50 percent of costs by integrating Office 365 and Intune into one license. We didn't have to use third-party software for mobile device management.

Intune helped consolidate vendors. This consolidation has dramatically improved our security posture.

The vendor consolidation helped reduce our licensing costs.

The integrated capabilities of Intune within the Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security suites are essential for managing cloud and co-managed devices. They provide a comprehensive solution under a single license, eliminating the need to install agents from third-party vendors and saving significant time and effort.

The compliance and configuration policies in Microsoft Intune are the most valuable features, saving significant time compared to manual implementation. The security integration with Microsoft Defender is also valuable.

Although Intune is from the same provider, its integration with other Microsoft products, like Microsoft Defender or Microsoft Purview, could be improved. Regarding synchronization, there are occasional delays in updating a device's status. Integrating Microsoft products, such as Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Defender, and Entra, requires enhanced synchronization capabilities.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for almost three years.

I would rate the stability of Microsoft Intune eight out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of Microsoft Intune eight out of ten.

Intune has too many capabilities. Deploying it is not straightforward, but it gets easier once you understand how it works.

For 200 devices, the deployment took us almost three months to complete.

In conjunction with Microsoft Defender, Intune has significantly reduced our spending on third-party endpoint security solutions. For instance, we previously used Check Point, but after implementing Intune and Defender, we discontinued using it, resulting in substantial cost savings.

Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value.

I would rate Microsoft Intune eight out of ten.

I would recommend Microsoft Intune to others.

Intune offers a wide array of capabilities, and even after extensive familiarity with the platform, it's difficult to fully grasp its potential. To effectively implement Intune, it's recommended to conduct thorough research, primarily through online resources, to understand specific requirements and capabilities in advance.

We use Intune to deploy and control applications on mobile devices and to remote patch and wipe endpoints. We also use it for various other endpoint- related operations.

Intune provides centralized access to the complete environment. It has helped us secure hybrid work and secure company data on hybrid devices. 

It has improved the productivity of our infrastructure and application teams as well as our end users. Intune has helped us quite a bit. I havent' calculated the ROI, so I'm not sure how much it has saved us, but it has streamlined our application process and improved application availability. 

Our main use is Intune's management of mobile devices, like Android or iPhone devices. The application performs quite well for both types. We successfully managed almost 3,000 endpoints. 

From a security perspective, we apply various password patches in application control, but we use a different product. Intune meets our expectations and requirements for device and application control, but it might not fulfill your needs for other purposes, such as security. 

It's quite a thorough solution that gives you a complete inventory of everything you have on your laptop or mobile device. It offers extensive visibility.

Intune could add more features that are relevant to the core application control functions. For example, it would be helpful if it had more control over the on-prem environment from the cloud platform. Greater Teams availability in the Saudi market would also be helpful. 

I have worked with Intune for three years.

I rate Intune nine out of 10 for stability. 

I rate Intune nine out of 10 for scalability.

I rate Microsoft support five out of 10. Unlike some other vendors, Microsoft support is not that efficient, but if you have implemented the solution correctly from the start, then you won't need support that much.

Neutral

Intune isn't an easy deployment.

We used a small Middle Eastern firm as a system integrator.

We evaluated Ivanti, but we decided to use Intune because it was available as a SaaS.ker 0

I rate Microsoft Intune eight out of 10. If you need endpoint management and control, Intune will be right for you, but I don't think It can meet your expectations if you need something else. For new users, I suggest having Intune implemented by a security or application architect. Otherwise, you may face problems later that you cannot troubleshoot.

We are mainly using Microsoft Intune for the security of people who are working from home. It is being used for BYOD.

We enforce and push policies and enforce security requirements through Microsoft Intune. We also use it for deploying applications and monitoring the devices remotely.

Microsoft Intune has simplified our mobile application management a lot. Managing devices that are in users' homes is very tough without Microsoft Intune. Remote management is very easy because of Microsoft Intune.

For maintaining our device security, the best feature is that it works with Azure Active Directory Premium One license. There is conditional access, which is something very unique, so if a machine is compliant and Microsoft Intune is installed on it, only then users can access our Office 365 data. It is not just a feature of Microsoft Intune but also of AD P1.

Microsoft Intune brings all of our endpoint and security management tools into one place. It has made our IT and security operations easy. With a single console, we can manage our devices.

Microsoft Intune provides full endpoint visibility and IT control across device platforms.

Microsoft Intune is simple, and it does not interfere at all with users. Users do not even know that Microsoft Intune is installed on the machine.

Application deployment through Microsoft Intune has affected the IT productivity in our organization. Previously, our IT department used to take remote control of the machine using some software. They used to manually do the installation, whereas now, they can simultaneously push an application on all the machines through Microsoft Intune. That saves us a lot of time and manpower.

Microsoft Intune has been helpful for securing hybrid work and protecting data on company and BYO devices. We have deployed BitLocker policies through Microsoft Intune to ensure that the data is encrypted on those devices. We have also disabled USB pen drives and other things on remote machines.

Microsoft Intune has improved our IT productivity a lot because we have remote users. If our users were local, it would not help much, but because we have remote users across the country, it helps a lot.

The improvement in IT productivity has also saved us costs. Previously, we needed more people to do the installations, remote monitoring, and all that, whereas now, with the single console of Microsoft Intune, all these tasks are much easier. A single person can manage hundreds of computers. We need three people less now.

Microsoft Intune has helped to reduce the risk of security breaches in our organization.

Microsoft Intune has helped us to consolidate vendors. With Microsoft Intune, security management is there and mobile device management is also there. Both these things could have been from a different vendor.

Microsoft Intune integrates well with other Microsoft products. It works well with other Microsoft products. There is a seamless integration.

Being able to manage the devices remotely is most valuable. We can push security requirements through Microsoft Intune. We previously used to do this through group policy for Active Directory, and now, we use Microsoft Intune for managing devices. This is the best thing about Microsoft Intune.

Apart from Microsoft Windows, we can do remote device management of Android and iOS devices. We can enforce security policies for Android and iOS devices.

The user interface of Microsoft Intune is good. It is easy to use.

Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best.

Their support can also be better.

I have been using Microsoft Intune for the last two years.

It is very stable. I have not had any issues. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for stability.

It is definitely scalable. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for scalability.

Their response time is poor, and the resolution capability is not good. Even after having a call with their customer care, there is a 50/50 chance of them solving the problem.

I would rate their support a 6 out of 10.

Neutral

We did not buy any similar solution previously.

For some customers, it is a hybrid deployment, and for some customers, it is a pure cloud deployment. Our customers are medium and large enterprises. They are not small businesses.

Its deployment is of medium complexity. If it is a hybrid environment, it is fairly complex. If it is a pure cloud environment, it is easy.

The deployment duration depends on the number of users we have or the number of computers we have. For a setup with 100 users or 100 computers, it takes about two weeks. It may require some troubleshooting and tweaking.

One person is required for its deployment.

It does not require much maintenance from our side. It is normally always up to date. Once it is set, we do not need to touch it.

I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a 7 out of 10 for pricing.

We evaluated a few solutions.

I would recommend Microsoft Intune to others. If somebody has a Microsoft environment, Microsoft Intune is definitely the best solution for managing people who are working from home or remotely. 

It is improving day by day. New features are coming up.

I would rate Microsoft Intune a 7 out of 10.

One prominent use case for Microsoft Intune revolves around the Active Directory, particularly focusing on user and device management, as well as mobile device enrollment. The primary objective in this scenario is to establish effective governance. This involves tasks such as pushing passwords and implementing policies seamlessly.

The most significant benefit lies in the ability to seamlessly handle personal devices, such as iPads, ensuring automatic compliance with comprehensive policies. The convenience of having robust support makes it easy for staff to manage device configurations independently, eliminating the need for external intervention.

It consolidates all endpoint and security management tools in a single location, significantly enhancing the employee experience. This is especially beneficial for executives or high-profile individuals who frequently change devices. The process is simplified – whether configuring a new iPad or downloading required applications, it's all streamlined. Executives and end-users can manage device enrollment independently without relying on support staff for tasks like setting up Outlook or other tools. The system allows for immediate enrollment and device tracking.

It offers comprehensive endpoint visibility and IT control across various device platforms. This proves highly beneficial for IT operation teams, providing details on the number of devices, their compliance status, and overall device status, including network access. The dedicated dashboard is a valuable tool, allowing users to proceed with applications and configure settings. Additionally, it assists in managing devices that may not have updated configurations promptly. For instance, in the case of a new iOS release, users receive reminders to update their devices, ensuring compliance with company policies and continued access to enterprise data.

Our experience with Intune in terms of user satisfaction is outstanding. If we were to quantify it on a scale from one to ten, I would confidently rate it around nine.

Intune plays a crucial role in securing hybrid work environments and safeguarding company data on both company-owned and BYOD devices. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate its effectiveness a nine.

The influence of Intune on our organization's security is substantial. Its impact is significant because I no longer need to be concerned about compliance or the enforcement of policies. With a single dashboard, I can efficiently handle all aspects related to compliance and security.

It has impacted IT productivity in our organization, and I would rate it around seven on a scale of one to ten. The flexibility of using Intune on multiple devices, including up to three or four, has been particularly beneficial. Whether I'm traveling or working remotely, I don't need to carry my laptop everywhere. I can efficiently manage emails and other tasks on my iPad, and if necessary, respond to emails, take calls, or update documents. Additionally, using my iPad for note-taking with OneNote is seamless – all notes captured on my iPad are automatically synchronized with my laptop. These features prove highly useful and convenient in various scenarios.

It has assisted our organization in cost savings, approximately ranging from twenty-five to thirty percent.

The system as a whole is immensely valuable, proving to be highly helpful and practical.

There has been a noticeable increase in productivity for both my organization and clients. The primary factor contributing to this enhancement is the user-friendly nature of the platform, coupled with effective technical support.

An area for improvement is the absence of seamless integration, particularly with external dashboards. Currently, to obtain an updated overview of devices not in compliance, we need to download the data, restricting visibility across other platforms like Power BI or third-party dashboards. This presents a challenge as we have to manually pull and manage the data, highlighting the need for enhanced integration with dashboard solutions.

I have been using it for three years.

I would rate its stability capabilities nine out of ten.

Its scalability is highly commendable, and I would give it a rating of nine out of ten.

The technical support is quite effective, and I would rate it at around nine out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup was quite straightforward.

It is deployed across various locations and departments.

Maintenance primarily involves administrative staff occasionally creating reports or extracting specific data. Apart from these tasks, there doesn't seem to be much ongoing maintenance required.

We have seen a return on investment by using it.

The cost is somewhat on the higher side, particularly when considering certain price points, especially in markets like India. It takes time for people to recognize and appreciate the features offered. Convincing customers to adopt this solution can be challenging initially, but as they explore its capabilities over time, they acknowledge the value of the investment. If the pricing were more competitive, it would be easier for me to recommend it to customers as their preferred choice over other endpoint management solutions.

The integration of Intune Suite capabilities with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Security is of utmost importance to us. This is the primary reason why I encourage both my customers and the IT department to leverage it. The combined benefits of Intune with Microsoft 365 are substantial.

I encourage my users to embrace new ways of working and explore how tools like Intune can enhance productivity. Instead of relying on traditional methods and seeking IT staff for assistance, it's essential to leverage technology for improved efficiency. Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.

The primary use case is endpoint management.

The biggest asset is the range of device management options available with Intune, whether it is a Windows device, a Linux device, a Mac device, or mobile devices. There are numerous options available. Within Windows devices, the depth of management is very nice.

The reporting dashboard is really limited. You have to use something like Power BI and Graph to get better reporting. I wish they would implement new dashboards and widgets for the dashboard in Intune. The report updating period is very slow, taking upwards of over an hour to confirm if a policy is deployed after check-in.

I have been using Intune for about three years now.

Very rarely have I seen it crash, maybe twice. However, if Intune is not available, the 365 environment might not be available, causing a major ordeal.

Customer service used to be better. In the last couple of years, support has not been very good, even with Premier and Premium support. It's been very hit-or-miss. However, when you get a knowledgeable support engineer, they are very good and helpful.

Neutral

I've used Jamf, JumpCloud, Mosyle 360, and Automate. I switched when I started to see the benefits of machine-level or cloud management through Intune.

Intune from zero has a learning curve, however, it's not overly difficult. It's important to have a basic understanding of what you're doing.

I've set up environments by myself. It's better to have a small team to verify policies and come up with solutions.

I know what's included in 365 Premium offering, and it's a good deal. On an enterprise level, they break out features I'd really want, which complicates access. It is a good value, especially for smaller organizations.

I've used Jamf, JumpCloud, Mosyle 360, and Automate in the past.

Make sure you have a test environment or test devices. Don't push a policy out to all devices unless you absolutely understand what it's going to do.

We use the solution for Autopilot. The company uses it for onboarding to Autopilot. We're using it mainly for mobile devices as SCCM cannot handle mobile devices. It works great for iOS, iPads and MacBooks. We do use it for Windows as well. 

If a user wants to purchase any application, they have to do it manually. However, we are now able to purchase the apps for the user and the user can access the apps without having to purchase themselves manually. When we use a VPN, we can utilize a protection policy where we can create rules around certain apps so that no data can be copied to an unmanaged device, for example. The device will be deactivated based on a threat to compliance. 

Intune allows us to deploy legacy policies and future policies for our devices. We can create policies for pushing Windows updates. 

The user experience is mainly for mobile devices, and it's very good for protecting personal devices. It helps us control company data, even on personal devices. Overall, the user experience is good. 

We are using Microsoft Copilot. We've very recently started using it. If you have a Copilot license, it can show policies for each device. It's a very useful feature. We're just starting to test it with our pilot groups. However, so far, it's given us the complete details of policies installed on individual devices. It will help us simplify our security operations. For now, we're working with our security and compliance teams to put it into place fully. 

If any user tries to access company data, it directly interacts with the conditional access policy. This helps us protect our data and set the criteria for how data can be accessed and shared. 

The enterprise application management feature for app discovery deployment and automatic updating is very useful. If you want to use a managed application in Intune, it needs to be authorized in Azure. This is an extra protection that ensures only proper applications are used. 

Intune can reduce the manpower needed on the IT side. By pushing customized policies, we can manage everything via the cloud or on-prem, and everything is seamless as it offers hybrid endpoint management capabilities for all devices.

With Intune, we can now manage both Windows and iOS devices under one solution. It's saving us a lot of costs by streamlining the management platforms needed.  We've been able to consolidate vendors. Since everything is now with Microsoft, the enterprise cost is different. The licensing is very easy.

From SCCM, you can control the complete patches of the Windows device. Either it's a future update or a critical update. Otherwise, it's just a security update. However, when it comes to Intune, we have no option to defer the policy. We can defer for 60 days; however, apart from that policy, everything needs to be deployed from Intune.

If you wish to block any App Store application, there is no way to do so. I have no app-blocking policies. If any user installs an application, the complaint policy will check it. Eventually, the device will remove any non-compliant devices. However, it will take time. There is no rapid, pre-emptive way to block the application directly from the App Store.

Intune doesn't bring all of our security management into one place. Windows patching isn't very visible in Intune. 

We need to manually add in serial numbers of the hardware. It would be ideal if the solution could offer a seamless enrollment option.

We'd like to have more visibility on endpoint security, specifically around antivirus and disk encryption. You can configure the firewall, however, it would be ideal if there was a single portal where we could manage all security efforts - from encryption to antivirus to firewalls - anything related to the network.

I've been using the solution for almost six years. 

The stability of Intune is very good. We don't need to take care of the network or anything since it's not on-prem. It's completely stable in the cloud. 

We have about 50,000 Windows devices and 25,000 iOS devices using Intune.

We haven't faced any limitations when it comes to scalability.

We've very rarely had to reach out for support. We had to in June for an update across iOS applications; however, beyond that, our need for them is very rare. You do need to be at an enterprise level in order to get complete support from Microsoft. 

Neutral

Previous to Intune, we were supposed to use only the WatchGuard devices with Citrix since we did not have any SCCM setup. Citrix completely managed the devices. And even if any user wanted to access something from home, the user had to log in first, sign in to VPN, then sign in to any virtual machine related to Citrix, and only then could they use OneDrive or whatever. There was the added cost of getting virtual machines and then having everyone utilize some more bandwidth. Using Intune helped the company streamline access and reduce bandwidth.

We also had a different process for iOS versus Windows products. For iOS, we had people accessing via AirWatch. Intune allows us to have one single type of license for all devices. Plus, Azure's Microsoft Defender offers security. 

The initial setup is not complex. If you are simply setting it up for a mobile device, it's very easy. It will redirect users for conditional access to ensure compliance. How many people you need to deploy is based on scale. However, even with thousands of devices, you only need two or three people as they would need to set up the groups. 

The tool is easy to maintain. 

We've witnessed a very good ROI by consolidating all of our platforms under Windows. A single license can cover five devices. You can sign in and gain access to all sorts of Windows applications from 365 to Excel. 

The licensing is very reasonable. With a single enterprise or EMS license, you can manage the Teams-certified device, and you can manage Windows as well as mobile devices. You can use Azure and get security. You get everything with a single vendor, which helps save costs by 30% to 50%. 

I'm working as an Intune engineer. I'm an end-user.

By moving to Intune, companies can control more DLP. The data loss protection is all right there. Users gain more visibility with Intune. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.
