Endpoint Management with Microsoft Intune
We show you how to standardize the deployment and management of endpoints and applications
Set up comprehensive endpoint management with Intune
The digital workplace is transforming the way we work and continues to evolve. While work used to be limited to local computers, today we operate across a wide range of devices, operating systems, and applications—both on-premises and in the cloud.
Challenges for IT teams
This shift has also impacted endpoint management, moving from separate management of mobile devices and desktops to a unified approach that includes endpoint security, analytics, and AI-driven insights.
However, this increasing complexity in device management presents growing challenges for IT teams, resulting in significant recurring efforts. Additionally, there remains untapped potential for improving user experience and IT service efficiency.

The solution: Endpoint Management
The answer to these challenges: a standardized, comprehensive endpoint management solution. With the cloud-based Microsoft Intune (formerly Microsoft Endpoint Manager), you can centrally manage all devices, platforms, and applications in one place. This includes configuration, software deployment, security & compliance, and client support.
The goal is to strike a balance between secure, compliance-driven management while ensuring simplicity, flexibility, cost-efficiency, and reliability—even for mobile devices. The best part: Microsoft Intune is already included in many Microsoft licenses.
What capabilities does Microsoft Intune offer?
Device Management
Distinguish between personal and company-owned devices. For devices that are owned by the company, full control over the devices can be exercised if needed. The security policies, passwords, etc., that you set will apply from the moment the device is registered.
BYOD
With personal devices (Bring Your Own Device), personal and business data can still be kept separate. There are various options available, ranging from full control, different work profiles through Entra ID integration, to regular multi-factor authentication for various applications. We would be happy to advise you on this.
Managing Apps
Mobile Application Management (MAM) helps protect your company data at the application level, including custom and storage applications. Managing apps is possible on both company-owned devices and personal devices.
What are the benefits of Microsoft Intune?
Centralized EMM
With Microsoft Intune, you manage and configure all endpoints used in the company from a central location. This includes Mobile Device Management (including BYOD) as well as applications used by your employees.
Leverage existing Licenses
Microsoft Intune Standard is included in Microsoft 365 E3, E5, F1, F3, Business Premium, and EMS E3, and can be flexibly expanded. Intune integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft services, such as Microsoft Configuration Manager.
Flexible Applicability
Microsoft Intune is applicable to Windows, Linux, iOS, macOS, and Android, enabling seamless integration with the Windows operating system.
Security & Compliance
Mit Microsoft Intune stellen Sie sicher, dass Geräte und Apps den Sicherheitsanforderungen entsprechen, d.h. Sie schützen Unternehmensinformationen und erfüllen Compliance-Anforderungen durch u.a. Zugriffskontrollen und eingeschränktes Teilen.
What features does Microsoft Intune include?
Standardized updates & configuration
Is the latest Windows update causing problems again? Are important security updates missing on a laptop? With Microsoft Intune, you maintain control over when, where, and how updates are deployed. New features can be thoroughly tested and then distributed in a controlled manner, and configuration settings can be distributed centrally.
Software distribution & app management
Through the Company Portal (Self-Service App Store), you can provide your employees with the software and various apps they need to work productively. The applications can be defined as a standard repertoire or made available to users with a single click—always in the correct configuration. Microsoft Intune enables the installation and continuous updates of apps. Additionally, deployed software packages can be kept up to date—completely automated.
Zero Touch Provisioning
Whether in the office or at home – thanks to the "Zero Touch Provisioning" approach, new employees can have devices fully automated and provisioned. The operating system setup, software, as well as policies, settings, and security standards are configured according to the employee's account. It doesn't matter whether the first login occurs in the corporate network or at home – it's always Zero Touch for IT.
Proactive problem identification with Endpoint Analytics
A laptop that takes longer than five minutes to start? An app that keeps crashing? Microsoft Intune's integrated endpoint analytics ensures that client issues are identified early. These can be proactively addressed, preventing frustrations and downtime for your employees.
Integrated endpoint security
Viruses, ransomware, spyware, and data theft are serious threats to any business. A common entry point is inadequately secured devices. With Microsoft Intune, you not only protect your data but also know where threats arise in order to address them proactively. For this, you can implement a comprehensive conditional access strategy.
Client Support
In the Intune Admin Center, your IT staff can monitor everything across all clients—from client performance and software issues to crashes and threat management. Based on this and with the help of integrated Microsoft security solutions such as Defender, Purview, or Sentinel, you can then provide proactive, flexible, and diverse support.
Advanced features with Intune Suite
Intune Suite is the most comprehensive version of Microsoft's endpoint management solution, Intune, and offers even more capabilities to help you optimize your processes on various levels. We would be happy to review the different Intune plans with you and analyze, based on your individual needs and requirements, which option is the best solution for you!
Copilot for Security
Copilot for Security reduces complexity, provides a comprehensive overview, and supports security teams (e.g., in resolving device and app issues or in creating intelligent policies)
Cloud PKI
With Cloud PKI, you can manage cloud certificates where endpoints are managed – this not only saves time and money but also automates and simplifies the deployment and management of certificates
Enterprise App Management
Enterprise App Management offers a catalog for enterprise apps, preconfigured and ready-to-use apps, as well as controls for app updates, ensuring secure and up-to-date application management at all times
Remote Help
Remote Help is fully integrated into Intune and provides RBAC and conditional access support, alerts for non-compliant devices, and privileged access rights
Advanced Analytics
Advanced Analytics includes features such as querying a new device, real-time exploration, and easy and quick troubleshooting
Universal Printing & Security
Enables secure printing without a server from any location and any device
