Product Summary

IBM Security MaaS360 is a unified endpoint management system designed to streamline and secure the management of diverse endpoints within an enterprise. This solution centralizes the monitoring and management of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and IoT endpoint devices. MaaS360 provides visibility of devices’ health and compliance status to maintain security policies and operational efficiency.

Use Cases

  • Mobile device management (MDM):
    MaaS360 enables IT professionals to manage, secure, and monitor mobile devices across various OSs with remote wiping and application deployment features.
  • IT automation:
    Users can utilize MaaS360’s automation to customize policies that automate routine tasks such as device configuration and update rollout.
  • Patch management:
    MaaS360 can detect when devices are missing critical patches and allow users to push out those missing updates to all devices or to a single device.

Shortcomings

  • Notifications:
    Some users have reported MaaS360’s inconsistencies in delivering critical notifications which can potentially lead to delays in receiving important updates.
  • Complex interface and set-up:
    Users have complained about the difficulty of setting up and managing MaaS360. This solution requires additional training and support so technicians can fully leverage all its capabilities.
  • Customer support:
    Reviewers have complained that MaaS360’s technical support needs more training and that customer support takes a while to respond.

With integrated RMM, PSA, and remote access tools, organizations can monitor, manage, and automate front-end and back-end operations. Syncro can also integrate with popular MSP business tools.

Use Cases

Shortcomings

  • User interface:

  • Customer support:
    Some users have stated that their support often gives generic answers and may take days or weeks to resolve a ticket fully.
