Anumula Hitesh

Senior Business Development Executive at Digitaltrack

Centralized device management has automated onboarding and improves remote security compliance

One thing I feel Microsoft Intune could improve is troubleshooting visibility. In many cases, when a policy or application deployment fails, the error messages are a bit generic. So, admins still spend time checking logs manually or testing on devices one by one. Compared to the simplicity of deployment, troubleshooting sometimes feels less mature. I also think reporting and real-time monitoring could be stronger. The dashboard gives useful information, but in large environments, many teams still depend on additional tools or scripts for deeper reporting and analytics. If I had to focus on one area first, I would probably choose troubleshooting and reporting. Deployment through Microsoft Intune is generally straightforward, but when something fails, identifying the exact root cause can still take more time than expected. Error messages are sometimes too generic, and admins often have to dig through logs, sync status, or multiple portals to understand what actually happened. I think user experience and policy management could also improve further. Microsoft Intune has become much better over the years, but sometimes the admin portal still feels fragmented because certain configurations open in different sections or redirect to older interfaces. For new admins, especially, it can take time to understand where everything is located. Another thing is policy conflict handling. In larger organizations, multiple device policies, compliance rules, and configuration profiles can overlap. When conflicts happen, the visibility is not always very clear, so admins spend time figuring out which policy actually won or caused the issue.

Centralized mobile management has reduced manual work and now secures apps, data, and access

Ivanti Endpoint Manager offers excellent features, working well with both iOS and Android, positioning itself as a market leader and providing a range of deployment features, including quick deployment of business apps, configuration profiles, compliance profiles, password policies, iOS and Android upgrades, and jailbreak device detection. The speed at which Ivanti Endpoint Manager deploys apps and configurations significantly impacts my daily operations, saving my IT team time and allowing them to utilize their effort in other activities. Deploying an app to 100 devices only requires pushing it through Ivanti Endpoint Manager, and once the device is online, it auto-installs the configuration item. Ivanti Endpoint Manager provides features for Apple DEP devices including Apple auto enrollment and integrates well with Zero-Touch for Android, allowing new devices to be preconfigured for out-of-box experiences and OS level security to be controlled, enhancing my management capabilities. Ivanti Endpoint Manager has positively impacted my organization as it is my main tool for managing mobile devices, reducing IT effort, ensuring devices needing updates receive the proper updates, and blacklisting non-compliant devices. It deploys configuration items including Wi-Fi profiles, SCEP profiles, root certificates, app-related profiles, and DLP policies to safeguard my infrastructure from malicious access. I have seen a reduction in time spent on device management because Ivanti Endpoint Manager automates small tasks and supports scripts, saving my IT employees time and effort compared to manual management.

An MDM solution for controlling and restricting data on devices

Everyone is using high-end devices, such as mobile devices. If they lose their devices, how about the data copied to other devices? Once the device is lost, you can remotely delete all of the data and block the device, preventing anyone from using or reusing it. This will keep your devices secure.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Based on my experience, I find Intune very flexible for managing Windows devices. We can use scripting, and we can make use of the self-service portal or the company portal to publish some of the applications for Windows."

"The most valuable feature is probably mobile device management. Small businesses are coming under greater scrutiny and requirements for compliance as time goes on. We don't have to worry about a VPN because we can manage these devices, control company data, and lock users out. If needed, we can remotely wipe devices and deadman-switch them."

"It saves time, money, and resources; when there was a local liaison, managing everything was a significant challenge, but with Microsoft Intune, it has become much easier—around 60% to 70% easier—and in terms of reliability and ease of use, it excels."

"What I appreciate most about Microsoft Intune is that we can manage multiple devices simultaneously in a single frame of time, and I can manage everything remotely from anywhere."

"Cloud-based device management is the best feature for me as it impacts my company the most; it is much easier than the previous Configuration Manager or SCCM."

"It is very stable and scalable because this is a cloud-only solution."

"I rate Intune 10 out of 10."

"The aspects I find most valuable are the managing the data and applications. I can also restrict the users to install any applications. I can also wipe the data if the phone was missplaced or stolen. These are the basics for me."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"The main benefits of Ivanti Endpoint Manager include patch management and security benefits such as vulnerability management, and it is particularly useful for managing devices in a centralized console."

"Ivanti is a great product from a security perspective."

"The product saves time and money."

"The best features of Ivanti Endpoint Manager are that the agents are very light, and the deployment monitoring is very good."

"What I appreciate most about Ivanti Endpoint Manager is that it's easy to enroll the device, the patch is very impressive, and the patching part of Ivanti Endpoint Manager is much easier compared to InTune, where in InTune, you have to create the app deployment, but Ivanti Endpoint Manager makes it much easier to update any patch, patch updates, and application updates."

"Ivanti Endpoint Manager offers excellent features, working well with both iOS and Android, positioning itself as a market leader and providing a range of deployment features, including quick deployment of business apps, configuration profiles, compliance profiles, password policies, iOS and Android upgrades, and jailbreak device detection."

"The interface is intuitive for administrators to understand patching, package creation, deployment, troubleshooting, remote access, and PowerShell scripting automation."

"Ivanti Endpoint Manager has served us well over the years, supporting operating systems from Windows XP to Windows 10."

More Ivanti Endpoint Manager [EOL] pros

"Scalefusion is easy to use, and they have a broad knowledge base, so you can quickly find answers if you're unsure how to do something. The articles on the knowledge base are well-written, with clear steps on what to do for a specific scenario. That part is well documented."

"Scalefusion has significantly increased the amount of work we can perform and has made it much easier to achieve our goals efficiently by eliminating tedious work and cumbersome processes."

"Its enhanced support for iOS and Windows devices has been particularly beneficial, expanding our service offerings to customers with diverse device environments."

Cons

"Its configuration is fairly complicated. You have to do quite a bit of discovery to be able to deploy it for a customer. You have to ask them a lot of questions. So, its initial deployment is the biggest challenge. They should make it easier to deploy with the use of Wizards or something else. During the deployment stage, there could be profiles for the customers who are particularly wanting to use certain feature sets of Intune."

"There are a few security features that are not available in Microsoft Intune, when compared to other products."

"What would make this product better is adding more security policies and features in the next upgrade."

"The reporting part needs improvement, and it would be beneficial if it could integrate with third-party tools instead of just Power BI."

"I've dealt with Microsoft way too many times, and needless to say, I'm not too fond of Microsoft support most of the time."

"There is room for improvement in the reporting capabilities, specifically app reporting. It is challenging to report which apps are installed on which device."

"I assess the stability of the product as low. I have faced downtime crashes and performance issues with Microsoft Intune."

"The mobile management is good for iPhone and iPad, but the Apple Mac management needs improvement. That is probably because Microsoft does not have low-level access to Apple Mac hardware. If you are doing basic things, it is okay, but if you want to image Apple Macs and do things like that, then Jamf is much better."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"When we offboard a user, sending the wipe command or lock command is slightly slower than Workspace ONE, as Workspace ONE automatically processes the lock or device wipe command instantly, while InTune is similar too."

"The area that could be improved within Ivanti Endpoint Manager is integration, particularly with tools such as Splunk or potentially ServiceNow."

"The product's implementation process is in areas of concern where improvements are required."

"They should create instructional videos for every feature such as software management and patch management to help beginners who are new to Ivanti Endpoint Manager."

"Setting up the solution on-premises is difficult and needs improvement."

"When it comes to the reporting part, it needs to be improved. The executive reports and the deployment reports can be more improvised."

"Improvements could be made in creating collections and enhancing patch packaging."

"For larger environments such as ours, the pricing for the Ivanti Endpoint Manager should be more competitive considering how much we pay every year, making it a constant challenge to get the product and license renewed."

More Ivanti Endpoint Manager [EOL] cons

"One area for improvement could be streamlining permissions during initial device setup, especially for corporate-owned devices, to reduce manual user interaction and expedite deployment."

"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough."

"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Intune is pretty reasonable. We have difficulty with Azure, which is probably why we have not put many assets in Azure. Everything we put there is very expensive."

"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."

"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."

"Cost is not my department, but the product is included in the E5 license that we already pay for every user, so no additional cost is incurred."

"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."

"Pricing can be improved."

"There is a cost benefit of using Microsoft Intune because of the packaging with other Microsoft products."

"Microsoft Intune is included in the E5 license at no additional cost."
