Workspace ONE

Reliable virtualized PC workspace

Comments: Remote user access, application/desktop virtualization.

Pros:

I usually Workspace One to log in to work remotely. It starts and performs very quickly compared to previous solutions.

Cons:

I seem to get disconnected more than I should. It will automatically try to reconnect, and usually does so successfully and resumes my session, but sometimes I cannot reconnect until my previous session times out. This has happened on multiple home devices.

WS1 UEM for deciem

Comments: Its working great the way it was setup but don't have much options to upgrade the tenant if its a very bog organization.
Support is good but not very quick.

Pros:

Easy to manage the devices, application version control, live location of device etc.

Cons:

Architect of the tool is difficult i.e. organization group vs assignment/smart group. Difficult for IT admins to setup regions, departments vide devices and link them.

Good for Mac and Windows if you go with one tool for all endpoints.

Comments: IT implemented it and I was tasked with enforcing security controls and policies. Integrating it with our SIEM has been a huge pain so we ended up going with something else. Forcing HD encryption to all endpoints was nice.

Pros:

Fairly intuitive. Easy deployment across our enterprise. Can install various applications, enforce encryption, etc.

Cons:

Little bit of a learning curve, but not bad at all. REST API doesn't have Event Data, so you have to leverage the Syslog data, but it needs work. Expand the REST API and it'll fix this.

One of the leaders in the MDM circle

Comments: The implementation took some time but all of our end-users are extremely happy to be off the legacy MDM platform.

Pros:

Coming from a legacy platform, Workspace ONE allowed us to use native email clients on our mobile devices.

Cons:

We are heavily regulated and require extreme security. In order to make this as secure as possible we had to jump through a lot of hoops that seemed unnecessary.

Modern, easy to use mobile device management

Comments: It's been positive. The devices are all secure. We have reporting on uncompliant devices. I can easily disable/wipe missing phones etc. So really has done everything we wanted

Pros:

This is an easy product to administer and configure. There is copious documentation on how to set it up. We can easily manage and secure our mobile devices and push out updates/software/wireless access very easily. The enrollment porcess has improved a lto recently so our users can easily self service.

Cons:

It was realtively easy for me to configure to connect to our ad system and other functionality. It may be a bit daunting for a novice.

Best Mobile Device Management Portal

Pros:

Easy to enroll the end-points. Inhouse and Googleplay/AppStore application(s) can be deployed to the device from remotely . Best cloud portal for MAM/MDM

Cons:

1. Portal performance can be improved still. 2.Frequency of Maintenance can be reduced 3. Focus on the reporting feature 4.iOS communications requires APN certificate which needs to be renewed yearly

Best Digital workspace platform

Pros:

Accessing all the company apps through workspace one. It is really good to have all the application that the company provides and use them more securely through the browser. Since the pandemic, we are using workspace for almost all services like Slack, Workday, EY and other apps through workspace one.

Cons:

I have been using workspace for almost 4 years and I'm happy with all the features they provide.

Where would we be today...

Comments: Great experience in a horrible situation. Responsive support staff, and knowledge technicians.

Pros:

Luckily we had an existing relationship with VMWare when Covid shutdowns started. This allowed us to move over 3000 employees to work from home in less than 45 days

Cons:

The cost. You get what you pay for, and VMWare delivers performance and ease of use, but it still send like there should be a win/win solution somewhere.

Suite of MDM products

Pros:

The Workspace One suite of products helps resolve many of the issues we had with only using the AirWatch product. Having the suite of products helps users when transitioning between the applications as they appear seamless.

Cons:

In order for the mobile devices to sync with the Workspace server, the Hub application needs to be opened semi-regularly and users do not always realize the application is not opened and fall out of compliance.

Workspace ONE UEM

Comments: console was user friendly and easily can deploy application and other profiles

Pros:

It is used to handle UEM and MDM Device, We can manage multiple platform like windows mac os android and IOS

Cons:

License cost is high compare intune, we need here separate license but in intune if user have E3 E5 license is enough

Best VDI product out there

Comments: we have a full virtual desktop environment with Workspace ONe and are able to deliver desktops and application to any device, anywhere using a relatively simple infrastructure

Pros:

workspace ONE has included Vmware Horizon and Vmware Airwatch together in a new product family. The Vmware VDI is hands down the best and easiest product on the market and is full with additional products and features, from the entry edition to the enterprise one where all business needs are covered. it is fairly easy to use and generally well documented. the support team is also very knowledgeable and keen to assist.

Cons:

there are not really major points which I can list here

It allows the improvement in experiences and tasks that were once costly, complicated.

Pros:

It allows to incorporate new applications and devices in less than an hour without complication, it establishes and applies data and access policies in all applications, devices and locations from the same place, in addition you can also complete business processes from a mobile device, Just as a laptop can be provisioned immediately from the company anywhere in the world from the cloud in minutes, Workspace ONE is the business platform that provides a digital work area that enables employees to safely incorporate the technology that choose, either devices or applications at the cost and pace that the company needs, also includes components of email, calendar, contacts documents, chat and business social networks of the employees' taste, as well as invisible security measures that protect the organization of possible data leaks through restrictions s when modifying or sharing attachments, allows employees to work collaboratively in real time, Workspace ONE automates the traditional tasks of incorporation and configuration of laptops and mobile devices and offers real-time application lifecycle management features that allow bridging the client-server applications inherited business and the era of the mobile cloud.

Cons:

the integration with Active Directory or LDAP requires the configuration of several layers, the reporting tools are basic and may not meet the minimum requirements of some companies.

Not Worth The Money.

Comments: It was not good. I was forced to implement the App completely on my own, then when the free trial ended they wanted to charge me thousands for implementation.

Pros:

The functionality was as advertised: you could track iPhones locations, lock or unlock remotely and manage what iPhone features were available to users.

Cons:

The technical support was absolutely non-existent.

The best solution for MDM

Comments: Manage mobile devices easily and push apps and policies.

Pros:

We having been using AirWatch/Workspace One for a long time. Works very well. Lets you setup policies and manage mobile devices, push apps and email and wipe lost devices.

Cons:

Nothing so far. Workspace one is rock solid. Went down the path of mobile iron which was a mistake.

VM Ware

Comments: This has been a great tool for our company. Easy to work with.

Pros:

Super handy tool to create virtual machines. I use use these to test software installs on Windows 10 OS before deploying company wide.

Cons:

Licensing can get expensive over the free Windows Hyper V.

Multi platform and it's VMware technology native

Comments: Because it's native to VMWare, it's not a shot in the dark. You can't be wrong if you have VMWare technology. Integration is native.

Pros:

Since it's integrated to AirWatch enterprise mobility management, unifies the management of every endpoint, regardless of platform or ownership model. I like the fact that supports ANdroid, iOS, macOS, Windows 10 and Chrome. Basically only Amazon is missing... Pricing is also interesting and there are multiple options. Standard, advanced and Enterprise. Also Perpetual On Premises for those who need only internal functionality. Specially useful if your infrastructure counts with Virtual Desktops.

Cons:

Nothing bad to say. I like the VMware family of products. Loyal clients and excellent support. Not cheap of course but not the highest.

a very useful application

Pros:

The thing I like most when using the application is that it is both easy to use and very easy to use.

Cons:

Never had a bad experience with the application.

Manage your mobile end points!

Comments: We needed an UEM that allowed us to secure our WIndows end points. Workspace One allows us to geolocate, as well as remote wipe our Windows end points. It also supports our other devices as well which includes Mac, IOS, and Android.

Pros:

Workspace one allows us to manage our endpoints with ease. Having a UEM that can manage all device types (ie Windows, Mac, IOS, Android) under one portal has simplified our support. Workspace One even allows geolocation and remote wiping of WIndows and Mac platforms.

Cons:

The option for remote control of a windows endpoint is being phased out. We have another solution in place, however for that task.

Life Saver

Comments: Great experience. Simple to use and has saved me a few times.

Pros:

It has saved my life a few times. Thank goodness for this program. It's simple to use and clean looking. Love the features of this too.

Cons:

Not much not to like. When this works. It's amazing. Sometimes connections are frustrating but can't blame the app.

too many features for our needs

Pros:

standard deployment of devices makes easy the task for IT

Cons:

too many unuseful features, so the overall price is higher for our need

Great for monitoring tablets

Comments: We can work remotely on devices while in our office and the devices are out in the field. This software is great and I am very happy that we decided to use WorkSpace. Thanks!

Pros:

Very user friendly! We use this software to help with security, so we are able to ping to a tablet remotely. It's great for sending updates to your devices across the United States.

Cons:

I love this software. Everything is organized and well put together.

MDM to a new level!

Comments: VMware has a very competitive product for MDM and will definitely give other companies a run for their money.

Pros:

This product has great customization for MDM and can get pretty granular. Does everything you want in terms of MDM

Cons:

It actually has more than enough capabilities of what we want from an MDM. We just need the basic app management and security features.

Workspace ONE

Pros:

Deliver complete virtualized managed desktops and internal web apps through a secured browser and VPN tunnel.

Cons:

AirWatch device management it great but self-service requires improvement and extension in new version.

It has been a pleasant experience.

Pros:

We have had little interaction with the infrastructure with the exception of upgrades to the application.

Cons:

Tier 1 support lacks the ability to adequately troubleshoot without escalation or WebEx session. Can do better in this part.
