Microsoft Windows Intune




Have you heard of Windows Intune?
Microsoft Windows Intune was introduced in mid of 2011, it is cloud-based subscription desktop management solution where it allows to manage your desktop via browser anywhere, anytime.


Personally, I feel that Windows Intune is good to start with the below situation as these are the computers where IT Administrator face challenges:
  • branches with limited IT resources
  • branches with limited bandwidth
  • non-domained joined computers
  • on the road (roaming) computers
And since it is based on subscription basis with an monthly payment at approximately US$11 per PC per month, so you can forecast expenditures more accurately.  :)
