Key Points
NinjaOne’s Intune integration extends Microsoft Intune with full operational endpoint management, enabling IT teams to manage identity, governance, and daily device operations in one unified workflow.
- It adds comprehensive lifecycle management by handling patching, maintenance, monitoring, and automation to create a seamless lifecycle from enrollment through retirement.
- It expands fleet coverage by enabling unified management of both workstations and servers, including true server management, which Intune alone cannot provide..
- It improves technician efficiency with one-click remote access, deep linking, and automated documentation that reduces manual data entry, eliminates human error, and returns time to the team..
- It strengthens IT asset management and identity coherence through SCIM-based user-to-device mapping and full-lifecycle visibility that goes beyond compliance inventory to true ITAM
- Deep linking ensures technicians only switch to Intune when identity or compliance work is needed, keeping operational tasks inside NinjaOne where tooling is stronger.
- The integration also positions organizations for Microsoft’s evolving Conditional Access standards by delivering real operational telemetry that will fuel richer device health signals.
Most IT teams already use Intune as the governance and enrollment layer for their device fleets. What’s often missing is the operational capability to manage those devices on a day-to-day basis once they’re deployed. The NinjaOne integration fills that gap by extending real endpoint management into the Intune ecosystem without disrupting the identity architecture customers have already standardized on.
The goal isn’t to replace Intune. It’s to help you get more from it.
Expand Intune governance with a powerful endpoint management tool.
A smarter, stronger stack
Together, NinjaOne and Intune create a modern, identity-first management stack that actually scales. The integration delivers:
| Category | What the NinjaOne integration adds |
| Governance | Intune remains the source of truth for identity enrollment |
| Lifecycle | NinjaOne handles patching, maintenance, and automation |
| Fleet coverage | Manage both workstations and servers in one platform |
| Support | One-click Remote Access for live troubleshooting |
| ITAM | Real asset lifecycle visibility, not just compliance inventory |
| Identity context | SCIM user-to-device cohesion |
| Documentation | Automatic enrichment, no manual entry |
| Future-proofing | Positioned for Conditional Access evolution |
Expanding endpoint management capabilities
Intune handles compliance, provisioning, policy, and identity. NinjaOne streamlines everyday operations, including monitoring, automation, troubleshooting, and fleet hygiene. Together, they create a unified lifecycle, from enrollment to retirement.
Managing everything, everywhere
Intune is not built to manage servers. NinjaOne is. This integration enables IT teams to manage workstations and servers through a single operational tool – eliminating the need to split infrastructure coverage across multiple systems.
Patching and software management that scales
Intune sets the policy and guardrails. NinjaOne ensures patching occurs reliably, safely, and at scale, with orchestration, rollout logic, rollback protection, and comprehensive reporting.
Remote support, real time
Fleet visibility is excellent. However, when an incident occurs, technicians require immediate action. The integration enables them to jump straight from a device record into NinjaOne Remote Access for instant troubleshooting and live support, closing the loop between identity and operations.
Real IT asset management across all devices
A device catalog is the cornerstone of governance. NinjaOne provides true ITAM across both Intune-enrolled and non-Intune devices, offering IT a comprehensive lifecycle view rather than partial inventory snapshot.
User-to-Device mapping through SCIM
With SCIM, user identities are linked cleanly to their assigned devices, improving troubleshooting, HR offboarding, asset tracking, and audit readiness, and eliminating the need to guess which endpoint belongs to which user.
Automation that removes the busywork
Device details are collected automatically and synced into documentation. NinjaOne pushes intelligence into native documentation, so teams don’t need to manually maintain asset notes or configuration records. No human error. Just cleaner data and more time for real work.
Deep linking back to Intune
The integration doesn’t eliminate context switching entirely. It makes it intentional. Deep links enable technicians to jump into Intune only when identity or compliance work is required, while keeping maintenance within NinjaOne, where operational tooling is stronger.
Positioned for Conditional Access evolution
This integration also positions IT teams for Microsoft’s expanding Conditional Access capabilities. As richer device health signals become available, NinjaOne will be ready to surface real operational telemetry, giving organizations deeper visibility and control.

The bottom line
The NinjaOne + Intune integration provides IT teams with what they’ve been missing: true operational control within an identity-first world. It unites governance, automation, and support into a seamless workflow spanning enrollment to retirement.
The result: less friction, fewer blind spots, and a stack that works the way modern IT does.
