We performed a comparison between Ivanti Avalanche and SOTI MobiControl 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."Among the most valuable features are the Company Portal that is built into Intune, and the update rings so that we can manage what types of future updates the devices get."
"The stability is good."
"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."
"I believe that the solution is actually in Gartner's top quadrant at the moment for mobile device management."
"It is user-friendly, and the performance is also good. It is a convenient product"
"The overall user experience is quite nice. I have no complaints from end users regarding their devices enrolled in Intune."
"The solution appears to be stable and scalable."
"It works pretty well for us."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Avalanche are the remote control and the file transfer."
"The terminal remediation feature is valuable."
"The solution is easy to work with. I like its stability and flexibility."
"Installing the packages remotely and remote control are the most valuable features. There are around 100 pieces or devices, and the only way to send a package to a device is by connecting to the PC and then manually sending the package. By using Avalanche, we can send a package to all devices with one click. It is very stable and easy to use. Their technical support is also very good. We have implemented this solution for our clients, and they are satisfied with this solution. It does what it is meant to do."
"It is a very easy-to-manage and granular policy-based solution. Policies that you can create per device per user behavior are the most valuable feature."
"The most useful feature of Avalanche is remote control — especially the ability to remotely install packages to many devices all at once. When the client has, for example, 100 devices needing updates, it would take far too long to update each device individually. But with Avalanche, we just connect to all the devices through the PC and send the updates out with one click."
"One of the most valuable features is the remote control. If there are issues in the field, we can remote into those devices and see what kind of issues they are."
"It helps in enrolling, managing, and relocating the devices quickly."
"The most valuable features of SOTI MobiControl include location tracking, geofencing, remote device control, and SOTI self-service mobile browsers."
"The most valuable features are remote control and geo-fencing."
"We use the Lockdown Kiosk Mode feature on all of our devices. We use that so that the operators can't change any settings in the background, and so that the applications they run are immediately available to them. It's a good feature."
"The remote control we have helps us a lot."
"The admin part, where I'm adding users, is not too bad. It's easy enough to use."
"The most valuable features are visibility and remote access."
"I'd like some more reporting so that I don't have to delve into PowerShell and I can pull more of the local device information such as memory, apps installed, etc. It would be nice to be able to see the apps that are present there but might not be managed. For example, if they installed 7Zip, it could report that back via an installed program or feature to see what was currently installed."
"Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance."
"They should make it easier to order it, however, that's generally true for everything from Microsoft."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."
"I expect Microsoft Intune to have more features in the cloud because there are two major functionalities that we need to be added. This is software metering and license management. These functionalities, for now, must be on-premise. For this purpose, we have set up a SQL Server and I hope that in near future this option will be in the cloud in Microsoft Intune."
"Integrating certain group policies can be challenging and may necessitate using on-premises systems to integrate them with Microsoft Intune."
"I'm still playing around with it and haven't had any issues with the product yet, but support can definitely be improved."
"The pricing could be improved."
"In future releases, I would like to see more automation or bringing in AI into to understand device behavior."
"There is a lack of flexibility."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"Because our clients are all very satisfied with Ivanti from their side, there is little I can say about room for improvement. However, I think that to stay competitive with other solutions offering a similiar solution, Ivanti could look into making their products more affordable."
"Its price could be improved. It could be cheaper. I would like to see a better approach for Android and an easy way to send packages and manage devices."
"The solution can improve by adding a kiosk mode option to the devices."
"It would be helpful if the product offered more integration and more features around the iOS and macOS platforms."
"The pricing policy of SOTI is not stable. You buy it today at one price, and the following year, it becomes something like 5% or 7% higher. From my point of view, SOTI is a little bit weak in terms of implementation on the new Windows 10 devices, and they have to work on this. It can't compete with Intune and other solutions when it comes to Windows implementation. It almost doesn't work with iOS. It works well with Android."
"Its user interface needs to be improved."
"The scalability is horizontal, not vertical. One machine has to have all the accounts. That's one of the issues that we have found with scalability: You always have to keep the same machine. If you want to add a second machine, you need to split the account and that removes flexibility of management."
"SOTI MobiControl's user interface is very tough to handle and should be made more user-friendly."
"The main feature that we would like to have with Soti is the ability to push an iOS update without having people come to my office. That is the main reason why we went with Soti. And that feature is not working on my version."
"In future releases, I would like to see a better configuration of the dashboard."
"In the next release, they should make it easier to migrate."
