We are using Intune for managing endpoint devices with zero-trust principles. The devices are not domain-connected because most people work from home. We do not trust these computers, so we use Intune to deploy and enforce policies related to updates, software installation, and management of admin users. When we are using Microsoft products on mobile devices, we are using Intune to enforce policies on them. Our usage is very simple. We are using Intune to manage devices that we do not trust. We are using Windows 365, and we install all applications only on these virtual PCs in the cloud. We do not have anything on endpoint devices. Not even a simple document can be downloaded there. We just have an access point to Windows 365 machines in the cloud. We are a financial company. There are not too many enterprise applications that we can use. We prefer to use zero trust. This means no there is no data on company devices at all. It is only on the cloud machines. It is easier to control one perimeter than 10,000 or 20,000 machines. We can reduce the attack surface in this way.

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.
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.
We use Intune to manage more than 5,000 endpoints. It has many powerful tools that enable an organization to manage its devices and applications securely. The main capability is mobile device management (MDM), which allows you to manage hardware and mobile applications. I'm also working with application management. That lets you manage deployments, protections, renewals, identities, and device integration.
We use Intune to manage devices and configurations on all platforms, including Windows, iOS, iPad, and Android. It also provides conditional access from the Azure portal. We have also used Intune to bifurcate data and data transfers. We have an Intune entry list that shows the device count and bandwidth of each, so we can manage the data flow from every device based on whether it's corporate or personal.
You can use Intune to manage devices for any size project, from a small business to an enterprise-level project. You can manage hundreds of thousands of devices. Intune can manage on-prem and cloud services. We are working with large enterprises mostly.
I am using Microsoft Intune for a trading company, Where I need to establish a secure administrative role for this product. We utilize Intune to manage Android, iOS, and Windows devices. We use it primarily to secure devices, deploy applications, and enforce security policies. Additionally, when employees leave the company, we can remotely wipe devices or applications, especially if personal devices are used for business purposes.

We use Microsoft Intune to manage mobile devices across almost all platforms, including Android, Windows, and Linux, which was recently added just a few months ago. Previously, we relied on on-premises infrastructure using SCCM to manage mobile devices alongside other tools. Intune is a cloud-based solution that empowers administrators to manage cloud devices, implement policies, and deploy applications. While other MDM platforms exist, Intune is a top choice due to its feature set.

Around 90 percent of our platforms are in the cloud, and our company uses them to manage access to various platforms. In our company, what we used to do when we were on an on-premises setup was to use group policy to basically manage access and authorizations to various services, which can be quite challenging because not everything you want to do on GPO even though it is available in it. You can use or manage VBScript and PowerShell, but it was a bit challenging. With Microsoft Intune, you already have specific processes and platforms that have several things you can do with it in terms of security and in terms of making everything standardized, sort of a standard desktop, or even a customized one based on the user's job title, ranging from executive management to basic back-end staff. Microsoft Intune allows you to customize everything, like security, the availability of some features, and even updating particular systems or where and which system can access which service from a geographical location, which we couldn't do with GPO. Microsoft Intune allows us to be very flexible.

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.

Intune enforces settings like requiring a screen lock and allows us to remotely wipe lost devices to protect sensitive company information.
Nowadays, we've seen more evolution towards Autopilot for Windows 10 and then in a hybrid or cloud-only setup. After the Windows devices, we use it with Android, the most frequent mobile, and then iOS. I have five or six projects regarding Microsoft. It helps deal with conflicting policies. We do a lot of graph API calls toward Microsoft for reporting, et cetera.

We control the endpoints and push the software. We also manage the patch schedule, quality updates, and feature updates. We use pretty much everything that is offered within Intune.
Our primary use of Microsoft Intune is for device management and improve security. Initially, it focused on management for Windows devices. However, over time, its capabilities have expanded to encompass mobile device management in general, as well as management for other platforms like iPO, Android and Mac OS devices. To ensure our devices are manageable regardless of location, we transitioned from an on-premises device management solution to Microsoft Intune. This cloud-based approach allows us to manage devices from anywhere, eliminating the need for them to be on our company network or VPN. Intune empowers us to remotely take actions on devices, including software installation, user identification, performance checks, and even triggering a remote lock if a device is compromised.
We are using Microsoft Intune for personal devices, specifically for mobile devices with Android, iOS, and Windows. We have applied the policies over there for device restriction and compliance. We also have a few policies related to Microsoft Defender.
I worked with Microsoft Intune in my level two support role. My tasks included license assignment and assisting users with configuration issues, especially in mobile device management for iOS and Android devices.
We use Intune to manage endpoints as a centralized enterprise solution. Instead of relying on Active Directory or an on-premise system, we directly manage employee devices using Microsoft Intune. Intune, a cloud-based SaaS product, simplifies endpoint management. From a user perspective, it's an improvement. Users no longer need to be on the office network. They can set up their devices anywhere with an internet connection, whether at home or another location. Security is also enhanced. By using Intune as a mobile device management solution, we can implement security controls and restrictions on endpoints. Intune helps us achieve a balance between user experience and security.
Microsoft Intune serves as our central platform for device management, ensuring timely patching and secure access through conditional controls. We leverage Intune to automate device onboarding, ensure patch deployment and device compliance, and generate compliance reports. We prioritize patching devices identified as non-compliant through these reports.

We are replacing AirWatch MDM with the product so that we can manage our devices. Eventually, we plan to migrate from SCCM, Windows, and Mac to the Microsoft Intune environment. It will help different departments to manage devices from one place.
When we develop, it's used for multiple different solutions. It could be anything, such as a portal, field services, web development, web apps, and lots of other different things.
We primarily use Microsoft Intune for device management and application management. It allows us to control and restrict user access, preventing data sharing and leakage. Additionally, we utilize it for endpoint management of Windows and Mac devices, ensuring their security and compliance.

The primary use case of Microsoft Intune is for patch management and app deployment. Microsoft Intune is deployed in a hybrid environment and we use Atel cloud.
We are currently using Intune, and we are also deploying it for customers. We use Intune to manage our mobile devices. We manage our Android and iOS devices with it, and at the same time, we also use Intune to manage our macOS and Windows devices. During the pandemic, there were devices that we couldn't control. For example, we wanted to manage BYOD and make sure that they are secured so that when they access our corporate resources, our data, computers, users, and mobile devices are protected. We use Intune to publish some of our company applications and at the same time push down our restriction policy and configuration profiles, such as VPN.
Microsoft Intune is used for Mobile Device Management. We enrolled our mobile devices as well as the mobile device solution for corporate devices. We have a lot of policies such as the compliance policy, and the conditional access-based policies for the corporate mobile user and we use the solution to assign their Outlook Teams and other configurations for the organization. We use Intune to design compliance policies that apply to corporate devices and to wipe data from devices when users are terminated. Intune is also used for mobile-based solutions, but we have recently explored its capabilities by using the Autopilot feature. With Autopilot, Windows 10 devices can be reset and new versions of Windows 10 can be deployed from Intune.
We are going to use Intune for registration and then we're going to use some kind of condition policies for resource access for unmanaged devices. With on-prem AD-based access, when the users are working from home or somewhere else, they need to connect to the VPN or something to access the corporate network, whereas, with Azure and Intune, we are going to provide the resources for application access. We can directly provide them access by using conditional policies. It has been only three months since we took the Azure subscription and migrated all the users to it. We are running it in the production environment. We are not running it in the testing environment. We are not implementing everything in one go because if any issues happen, it's not easy to roll everything back in minutes. For this reason, we're implementing them one by one.
Intune is being used by our organization for managing end-point security for our employees and customers. We are in the financial domain where financial transactions are done. It is quite challenging to secure all the devices and systems. We have more than five banking and financial services-based applications running from the cloud. So it is a priority to protect those applications.
I'm an IT manager contracting with a European company. We had to onboard Windows machines to the Azure AD, but they did not have an on-prem AD. I prepped the Azure AD on the cloud, and I started to migrate the laptops to Azure AD. Once that is done, we need to apply policies, but group policies will not run from Azure AD because there's no on-prem AD to derive the policy from. Intune comes in handy there. It has multiple capabilities. You can create your configuration profiles in Intune that apply to Windows and Mac. You can create security profiles and configuration profiles, and you can apply browser settings to some extent. It isn't a small tool in terms of size or breadth of capabilities. It's very capable. Anybody who has used SCCM will see a lot of similarities.

Microsoft Endpoint Manager is simply a desktop, a laptop, a smartphone, or a tablet. An endpoint is exactly what it sounds like. Microsoft, on the other hand, makes use of that tool. Endpoint allows you to deploy the operating system level. It enables the packaging and deployment of applications. It enables you to secure systems with BitLocker and incorporate things with Active Directory. We are a consulting firm. Our clients use it to simplify desktop builds and to maintain the patch management on their servers and desktops, as well as to have an easy mechanism for both rolling out BitLocker, which is a Microsoft tool and publishing new updates for their various software packages.

Once that is done, we need to apply policies, but group policies will not run from Azure AD because there's no on-prem AD to derive the policy from. Intune comes in handy there. It has multiple capabilities. You can create your configuration profiles in Intune that apply to Windows and Mac. You can create security profiles and configuration profiles, and you can apply browser settings to some extent. It isn't a small tool in terms of size or breadth of capabilities. It's very capable. Anybody who has used SCCM will see a lot of similarities.
I use Intune for endpoint management. We manage our workstations via Intune because we have remote users on and off the corporate network. It's deployed across over 500 Windows workstations. We're also trying to incorporate cell phones, but we haven't reached that point as yet.
Generally, the top three uses are operating system deployments, software updates and patching, and software deployments to endpoints.
Microsoft Endpoint Manager is simply a desktop, a laptop, a smartphone, or a tablet. An endpoint is exactly what it sounds like. Microsoft, on the other hand, makes use of that tool. Endpoint allows you to deploy the operating system level. It enables the packaging and deployment of applications. It enables you to secure systems with BitLocker and incorporate things with Active Directory. We are a consulting firm. Our clients use it to simplify desktop builds and to maintain the patch management on their servers and desktops, as well as to have an easy mechanism for both rolling out BitLocker, which is a Microsoft tool and publishing new updates for their various software packages.
We primarily use the solution for both deployment and operating system deployment, and also as security for patching.
We are deploying and rolling all kinds of devices - our laptops, our tablets, our smartphones. We are using it locally here in Holland, in the Netherlands, and we are expanding the use to all business units abroad.
Effectively, we are using Microsoft Endpoint Manager, which is a mix of Intune and CCM. I'm not sure if there's a specific category for that. We are using it mainly for the office workers, for the regular laptops. On top of that, we got our fairly specialized devices on our factories, such as the tag down Zebra Scanners, the RealWear glasses - the augmented reality ones and the kiosks as well. Those are the main use cases.
We use Microsoft Endpoint Manager for patch management and software and application deployment. We also use it to engage with the user to be flexible and encourage them to use our organizational tool in their home or country, along with Microsoft 365 features and VDI.
