Switching from System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) to Microsoft Intune for cloud-based device management offers significant benefits, especially in today's remote and hybrid work environments. Intune enables IT teams to manage devices over the cloud, eliminating the need for on-premises infrastructure and reducing maintenance costs. This is a shift from SCCM's traditional on-premises setup, offering organizations greater flexibility and scalability by allowing IT to oversee devices from virtually anywhere.
One of Intune’s standout features is its integration with Microsoft 365 and Azure Active Directory, allowing seamless management of devices and apps within a single ecosystem. This integration supports conditional access policies, making it easier to secure data by allowing access only to compliant devices. Intune also streamlines device enrollment with Windows Autopilot, facilitating quicker setup and deployment of devices, especially useful for remote teams.
Moreover, Intune simplifies application and update management, pushing policies and software updates automatically, without relying on local servers. It also provides advanced mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM), empowering organizations to secure devices across various operating systems. Apps4Rent offers expert guidance in migrating from SCCM to Intune, ensuring a smooth transition that maximizes the benefits of Intune’s cloud-based management capabilities for modern workplaces.
