Product Summary

Microsoft Intune offers cloud-based endpoint management with comprehensive support for Microsoft product integration. Intune allows managed service providers (MSPs) and IT teams to set up laptops and mobile devices, manage corporate and BYOD devices, and enforce security policies. It offers features such as app management, data protection, device configuration, and software updates, all from a single cloud-based platform. With Intune, customers can remotely secure their data and ensure device compliance with company security policies.

Use Cases

  • Centralized device management:
    Streamlines device onboarding, configuration, and administration for highly homogenous environments and device configurations.

  • Easy integration with Microsoft products:
    Built for seamless integration with Azure Active Directory and other Microsoft products such as Office and Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.

Shortcomings

  • Performance:
    Several user reviews have stated that Intune can slow down when performing multiple tasks simultaneously, such as deploying and assigning configuration profiles or showing the status of items.
  • Universal compatibility:
    Users have reported that configuring macOS and Apple mobile devices may be challenging, and fewer functionalities are available for non-Windows devices.
  • Learning curve: 
    According to G2 reviews, InTune’s interface can be complex, requiring new users to expend more time and resources to learn and understand how to use the platform fully.
