Key notes

It seems that Microsoft is addressing a lot of issues with Intune on macOS because there are users who are praising Microsoft Intune on Apple devices. As you might know, Intune is a platform developed by Microsoft that allows for the efficient management of an organization’s IT infrastructure.

Of course,it usually goes hand in hand with Windows devices, but it can be used on macOS devices as well.

And it seems Microsoft has been spending resources on making sure the platform works well on macOS devices. It seems the Redmond-based tech giant has improved macOS management.

I’m seeing more and more of my Macbook devices being marked as complaint, automatically. They are being automatically remediated due to my policies configurations. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had this configuration for like 8 months now, but just a month ago things started to move along, out of the blue. I had macbooks that were not picking up policies, or having issues with lockouts, not getting synced, etc. Everyday I’m seeing more and more devices pro-actively applying fixes to be complaint. Has this been happening to anybody else? Windows devices work like a charm, it’s extremely easy to manage them via Intune. MacOS seems to be going that direction now.

According to the IT manager, it seems that now Intune no longer has issues with Mac devices. If in the past, they were having trouble getting synced or enabling policies, it seems that now Intune does everything automatically. Without any issue.

The truth is Microsoft has been focusing on bringing Mac devices to the table. Just recently, the Redmond-based tech giant announcedMicrosoft Mac Admins.

It is a platform that aims to bring Microsoft 365 Mac users together. Professional and personal accounts are welcomed on the platform as well.

This could easily be seen as a step for Microsoft to offer and facilitate its services to and for Mac users, and based on the feedback, it seems it works.

So, it’s no wonder Microsoft Intune is already improving macOS management.

What do you think about this? Are you an IT admin on Mac devices using Intune? Have you noticed it? Let us know in the comments section below.
