When Microsoft Intune is the right call (and when it is not)
Microsoft Intune is the endpoint management platform for businesses already in the Microsoft ecosystem. We deploy and manage Intune for NC small and mid-sized organizations that want unified control over Windows, Apple, and Android devices through a single cloud-based admin experience. If your situation is different, we will point you to the right service:
- For platform-agnostic mobile device management that works across non-Microsoft environments or mixed device fleets.
- For the productivity suite that Intune deploys and protects on those devices, with our Microsoft 365 services.
- For identity infrastructure underneath Intune (the directory Intune authenticates against), our Active Directory and Entra ID services cover that scope.
- For threat detection, response, and the broader endpoint security strategy that pairs with Intune device controls, our IT security services handle that layer.
Microsoft Intune is the right call when devices need consistent policies, deployments, and protection across a Microsoft-anchored environment.

Why North Carolina businesses choose Insight Tech Advisors for Microsoft Intune
As a managed services provider serving NC businesses, we have spent the past nine years building an endpoint management practice that small and mid-sized organizations can rely on. The differentiators are concrete:
- 17-minute average response time during business hours
- 24/7/365 Remote Monitoring and Maintenance for managed endpoints and Intune service health
- A dedicated point of contact for your Intune environment, not a rotating call center
- No restrictive contracts. Microsoft Intune engagements are paid for on terms you can walk away from
- Predictable, transparent pricing with no hidden charges
- 4.93 stars across 202 Google reviews between our Hillsborough headquarters and Raleigh office
- EOS-run organization with the operational accountability that brings
As an managed services provider serving North Carolina businesses since 2017, we know what NC operations actually need from an Intune partner: a clean rollout, sensible policies, and ongoing management that does not require your team to become Endpoint Manager experts.
Our Intune deployment process: discovery, pilot, rollout
Every Microsoft Intune engagement we run follows the same three-phase structure. The work inside each phase is tailored to your environment, but the framework keeps the project on time and on budget.
- Phase 1: Discovery
We start with a structured assessment of your current device estate, identity setup, and existing management tools. We inventory devices by operating system, document existing policies (if any), and confirm Entra ID and Microsoft 365 license coverage. By the end of discovery, you have a written deployment plan with timeline and cutover scope. - Phase 2: Pilot
We deploy Intune to a representative pilot group first, typically 10 to 25 users covering each device type and role pattern in your business. The pilot validates that policies behave as expected before they touch the rest of your team, with rollback plans ready for any policy that creates friction. - Phase 3: Rollout
Once the pilot is stable, we expand to the full device estate in waves. Each wave is monitored, documented, and reported on. By the end of rollout, every managed device is enrolled, compliant, and reporting cleanly. Ongoing management starts the next day.

Intune integration with Entra ID, Microsoft 365, and Defender
Microsoft Intune is most valuable when it integrates cleanly with the rest of your Microsoft stack. As a Microsoft Endpoint Management partner, we configure those integration points so signals, policies, and identities flow through the environment without duplication.
Intune authenticates against the identity infrastructure our Active Directory and Entra ID services team manages, with conditional access policies linking device compliance to corporate access. The Microsoft 365 productivity apps your team uses every day get deployed and protected through Intune app policies. For broader Azure-side advisory beyond device management, our Microsoft Azure consulting covers the platform-level strategy. Reference baselines align to Microsoft's Intune service description and the NIST SP 800-124 mobile device security guidelines where compliance matters.
Defender for Endpoint signals feed Intune compliance rules, which means a flagged device automatically loses access to sensitive resources until remediation. Threat response and the broader endpoint security work live in our cybersecurity practice, but the device-control surface that enforces those decisions lives in Intune.
What changes when Microsoft Intune is set up right
A well-configured Intune environment fades into the background. That is the goal.
- Device deployment becomes a non-event. Autopilot ships a new laptop directly from the vendor to a user, who powers it on and is productive in under an hour. No IT staging required.
- Compliance stays continuous, not annual. Compliance policies enforce baselines daily. Auditors get reports, not panic.
- BYOD stops being a security gamble. App protection policies separate corporate data from personal apps without intruding on the personal device.
- Updates and apps deploy predictably. Microsoft 365 apps, third-party software, and security patches roll out on schedules you can show your CFO.

Frequently asked questions about Microsoft Intune services
What is included in Microsoft Intune services?
Intune tenant setup, Autopilot configuration, compliance and Conditional Access policies, app protection policies, app deployment, Endpoint Privilege Management, Defender for Endpoint integration, and ongoing administration. We document your environment, manage policy changes, and report on compliance every month.
What is the difference between Microsoft Intune and traditional MDM?
Traditional mobile device management is platform-agnostic and often vendor-specific (AirWatch, MaaS360, Jamf). Microsoft Intune is Microsoft's cloud-based endpoint management platform, integrated with Entra ID, Microsoft 365, and Defender. Intune fits Microsoft-anchored businesses; generic MDM tools cover non-Microsoft or mixed environments.
How much does Microsoft Intune cost?
Intune licensing starts at $8 per user per month (Plan 1), with Plan 2 and Intune Suite add-ons available. Intune is often bundled into Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Enterprise plans. Our managed Intune fee is scoped separately based on your environment size and complexity.
What are the disadvantages of Microsoft Intune?
The admin interface is fragmented between legacy and new portals, the learning curve is steep, and some advanced features sit behind add-on licenses. We handle the complexity for you so your team uses Intune outcomes without becoming Endpoint Manager experts.
Does Microsoft Intune work with Entra ID and Microsoft 365?
Yes, deeply. Entra ID provides the identity layer that Intune authenticates against. Microsoft 365 apps get deployed and protected through Intune app policies. Conditional Access policies tie device compliance to corporate resource access across the Microsoft stack.
Can you migrate us from another MDM platform to Microsoft Intune?
Yes. We handle migrations from AirWatch, MaaS360, Jamf, Workspace ONE, and other MDM platforms to Intune. Each migration starts with discovery, runs through a pilot, and includes documented cutover and rollback plans.

Calloway & Associates
“I just wanted to say thank you to Insight and Joshua for having our backs Sunday. About 2:30 pm I received a call from Joshua who let me know that the server wasn’t showing up online anymore. So I ran out to the office and found our lights were out – service was down for about 300 people due to damaged equipment. I got in a report of our outage in to Duke. He stayed on it with me until they turned the lights back on about 6 pm (me checking status at the office and letting him know) and then he got us all set back up to be ready for Monday morning. It was just great teamwork and I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you guys. Thank you!”
