Likelihood to Recommend This product has helped me find lost mobile devices and has helped protect our corporate intellectual property as well as making it easier to support our 700 users in our Canada manufacturing facilities. We are better able to manage our fleet of devices and manage the apps that are being used on these devices as well as which apps are being used. We can easily wipe out a device if someone resigns and to better protect information. It makes it easier to deploy a completely configured mobile device to remote users and supports Apple, Android or BYOD. Once configured correctly this product integrates seamlessly with Apple to better manage off the shelf apps or custom applications. This product has made my life working with managing two different corporate entities and their divisions all across Canada with relative ease and leaves me more time to work on other issues. And reports are simple and customizable making it simple to see and understand and utilize the information to make better informed decisions.

This solution have the best compatibility with every type of endpoints and the functionalities and features are incredible. The dashboard gives the overall visibility and details needed for a endpoint. We can see what applications are running as well as services which are running. It supports multi OS. It is not well suited for environment where only laptop and desktop needs to be managed as we can have other solution in less price. For just managing the workstations like laptops it may be not the best tool as the functionalities will be limited as compared to other vendors in this price.

Read full review Cons MaaS360 with Watson has a lot of features and capabilities, which can sometimes make it difficult for us to navigate. Improving the user interface and making it friendly could help make the platform easier to use. Expanding integrations with other systems to provide better support for a wider range of systems and platforms. Read full review The deployment and implementation process took very long as we encountered some bugs in the OS and every time installation got failed due that. It took so long to understand that which delayed the process so we moved to n-2 version. Hence, in new OS bug should be removed for smooth configuration and installation. The reporting part need to be improved as it is very basic and do not carry much information which is needed for auditing purpose. It should be made customizable and more type of reporting format should be introduced. So this the area of improvement. Third Party integration is not possible. This feature is lacking. For proper visibility and control management it should have functionality of third party integration so that we can take control action for non complaint system.

We do not want to interact with MaaS360 on a daily basis but when an issue occurs we are always able to find resolution due to the various support resources we have access to
Read full review Usability Having years of experience with MDM and experiencing the evolution of the granularity of the functionality MDM's have had to evolve, no MDM is ever "easy" to use. MaaS360 rises to the top however, because zero day changes are always ahead of the competition. A huge benefit with MaaS360 and IBM's approach to supporting these changes is that they seldom change configuration work flows. Competing Vendors always arbitrarily change workflows which requires a significnat ongoing learning curve in order to maintain technical competence

Read full review Support Rating MaaS360's phone support has been decent the few times I have used it. In addition the person who on-boarded us has been available for additional questions after the process was over. However IBM could do a much better job in creating a user-friendly search engine and white-paper database to help people find topics. Right now finding info is more based on searching through white papers themselves.

Read full review Return on Investment We were able to reduce our monthly bill for iPad data usage by well over 60%. Simply by limiting the applications available to what was absolutely necessary to do their jobs. We have never had an iPad lost that couldn’t be recovered. We were able to reassign iPads when we discovered techs were not using them. Some techs preferred to use their company phones. Read full review The product helped to achieve good profit as is it helps in managing the endpoints from remote which lowers the on site engineer cost. The ROI for this product is 75-80 percent as it is a agent based solution and deploying agent in a large environment is painful hence to achieve the full ROI will take lot of time. The solution is proven to be best for our organization as it helped to maintain the compliance of our organization be verifying the necessary application needed for the organization to make it secure.
