We performed a comparison between 42Gears SureMDM and Cisco Meraki Systems Manager (MDM+EMM) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"I like the group policy management feature, which performs application monitoring and device enrollment."
"The Asset Management and Auto Pilot are valuable features."
"The Microsoft Windows Autopilot and Defender policies are the most valuable features of this solution."
"By using Microsoft Intune we can control which websites the users can go to and it provides a secure environment for our employees using their laptops that are having access from home. We have installed Intune to control the user's environment minimizing the chances of any hacking."
"It's very informative when there is an error. It allows us to backtrace where the error is and resolve that ourselves. It's a bit of a Swiss Army penknife. We find that it fixes most issues."
"A valuable feature is user enrollment, where users can enroll their devices in their organizations themselves."
"The ability to push applications on devices is valuable. You do not have to manually install applications one by one. If you like to use ten different applications, you do not have to manually go and download them one by one. Intune can compile a package for you, and then you can just push them from the admin center."
"The solution's customer support is good."
"This solution is very dynamic. I can do what I need to do with it."
"Payloads, application publishing, and cataloging features are valuable to our customers."
"The tool's most valuable feature is a remote connection to the devices. You can also push and lock applications. It helps us lock devices for professional use to control which applications can be installed."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Its dashboards are valuable. It is easy to access dashboards and implement policies."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of 42Gears SureMDM include tracking location and pushing applications."
"I have found the location analytics feature that is built into the APs to be the most valuable. It allows you to compare data and to single out individuals who are repeatedly coming into your store. We can observe different trends. This is what separates it from a lot of the other solutions."
"The best features of Cisco Meraki Systems Manager include its simplicity and ease of use. It is straightforward to set up and manage devices compared to other products."
"It's very easy to just keep adding devices as needed."
"The solution is easy to use and support."
"Meraki Systems Manager's most valuable features are password management, device tracking, remote resetting and wiping, device management, inventory management, and easy policy deployment."
"The solution is simple."
"We can reconfigure a client’s setup remotely with minimal effort."
"Initial setup was easy."
"Integration with Mac devices requires some improvement."
"Enhancements for managing MacOS more comprehensively would be beneficial."
"The difficulty of the the roll out is surprisingly difficult considering this product is supposed to be an integrated part of the 365 suite."
"It would really be helpful to have the option to manage server operating systems as well, like Windows Server, at least. That way, we could scrap the use of SCCM, which requires a lot of on-premises infrastructure."
"Reporting in Microsoft solutions is pathetic. With Intune, I'm getting a free inventory tool, but I don't get a reporting tool. When I go to Intune, I can see one machine's entire data in terms of the hardware and the software running on it, but I cannot generate a report for all the machines in the organization. The reporting is the only feature holding back the functionality that is already there."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"There is room for improvement in integration and security as well."
"In terms of what can be improved, I am looking for better enhancements regarding Apple management, not only on the mobile device, but also on the laptop."
"42Gears SureMDM needs to improve support because it may take around one to two days to receive a revert."
"As a partner, we consider 42Gears to be a unified endpoint management (UEM) solution. So, we should be able to manage users with this particular solution. This is something that is currently not there. It is probably an area for improvement for 42Gears."
"The product is not so convenient to deploy or to configure."
"The user interface and customization features are not the best and could be improved."
"The dashboards could be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be made cheaper."
"User creation on Mac must be improved."
"The maintenance is average."
"It doesn't seem to be able to establish some VPN tunnels with other devices in a particular way that such as an ASA can do for us."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing."
"There are problems with the connection on the client side, and the app that was deployed could be better."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a four out of ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy. It is more difficult."
"They need to allocate more energy in terms of their offering to devices that are not Apple devices."
"In my opinion, the equipment availabilities and competitive pricings could be improved."
"Linux compatibility needs improvement."
