It allowed you to <strong>manage and protect endpoints<\/strong>, such as laptops, desktops, tablets, smartphones, servers, and virtual machines, <strong>across different operating systems<\/strong>, such as Windows, iOS, Android, macOS, and Linux. It also enabled you to <strong>deploy and manage applications, policies, updates, and compliance on<\/strong> your <strong>endpoints,<\/strong> as well as <strong>control access and data<\/strong> <strong>on both organization-owned and personal devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft Endpoint Manager consists of several <strong>components,<\/strong> including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Microsoft Intune<\/strong>: a cloud-based service that provides mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM) for your organization\u2019s devices and apps. Intune works with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/lu\/microsoft-azure-ad-becomes-microsoft-entra-id\/\">Azure Active Directory<\/a> (AD) and Conditional Access to control access and data on organization-owned and personal devices. Intune is part of the Microsoft 365 license and has advanced capabilities for different types of endpoints.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Configuration Manager<\/strong>: an on-premises management solution that can manage desktops, Windows servers, and laptops that are on your network or are internet-based. You can use Configuration Manager to manage data centers, apps, software updates, and operating systems. Configuration Manager is also known as System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) or Endpoint Configuration Manager.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Co-management<\/strong>: a feature that allows you to concurrently manage Windows devices by using both Configuration Manager and Intune. Co-management lets you cloud-attach your existing on-premises Configuration Manager investment with some of the cloud-based features in Intune, such as using the web-based Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Endpoint Analytics<\/strong>: a feature that provides insights into the performance, health, and user experience of your endpoints. Endpoint Analytics helps you identify and fix issues, optimize device configurations, and improve productivity and user satisfaction.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Windows Autopilot:<\/strong> a feature that simplifies the deployment and setup of new Windows devices without IT help. Windows Autopilot uses cloud-based services to configure devices based on predefined profiles and policies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Intune admin center:<\/strong> a web-based console that lets you manage your endpoints, apps, policies, and reports from anywhere. The Intune admin center is also known as the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center or the MEMAC.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-36234\" src=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager-1024x683.png\" alt=\"microsoft endpoint manager\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager-150x100.png 150w, https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/media\/2022\/10\/SCHNEIDER-IT-MANAGEMENT-2023-11-01-Website-Microsoft-Endpoint-Manager.png 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>What are the benefits of Microsoft Endpoint Manager?<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft Endpoint Manager offers several benefits for organizations that want to manage and secure their endpoints, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Simplified and unified management:<\/strong> Microsoft Endpoint Manager provides a single platform to manage and protect your endpoints across different operating systems and environments. You can use the Intune admin center to manage your endpoints from anywhere, or use the Configuration Manager console for more granular control. You can also leverage co-management to take advantage of both cloud and on-premises features and transition to the cloud at your own pace.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enhanced security and compliance:<\/strong> Microsoft Endpoint Manager integrates with other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/lu\/microsoft-security-solutions-network-and-information-security-directive-nis2\/\">Microsoft security<\/a> solutions, such as Microsoft <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/lu\/microsoft-defender-for-endpoint-mixed-licensing-scenarios\/\">Defender for Endpoint<\/a>, Microsoft <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneider.im\/lu\/microsofts-new-frontline-worker-licenses\/\">Defender for Identity<\/a>, Microsoft Cloud App Security, and Azure AD, to provide comprehensive protection and visibility for your endpoints. You can also use Microsoft Endpoint Manager to enforce compliance policies, such as encryption, password, firewall, and antivirus settings, and remediate non-compliant devices automatically or manually.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Improved productivity and user experience:<\/strong> Microsoft Endpoint Manager helps you deliver a consistent and seamless user experience across your endpoints, regardless of the device type, ownership, or location. You can use Microsoft Endpoint Manager to deploy and update applications, configure device settings, and provide self-service options for your users. You can also use Endpoint Analytics to monitor and optimize the performance, health, and user satisfaction of your endpoints.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ac-textBlock\">\n<h2>How does Microsoft Endpoint Manager compare to Intune and SCCM?<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Microsoft Endpoint Manager<\/strong> is <strong>not a replacement for Intune or SCCM<\/strong>, but rather a <strong>platform<\/strong> that <strong>brings them together<\/strong>. <strong>Intune and SCCM are still standalone products<\/strong> that have their own features, licenses, and use cases.
