Intune Company Portal Reviews

by Rg;lagnae

Edit: even with today's release I cannot enroll my device!!! Please rectify this immediately.

It takes you in an endless circle. You try to sign into your company teams account, it directs you to download IntuneCompanyPortal, upon downloading IntuneCompanyPortal and signing in it it AGAIN directs you to download IntuneCompanyPortal (now you get taken to IntuneCompanyPortal store page for IntuneCompanyPortal and can see it's already downloaded so it just gives you the option to open IntuneCompanyPortal ). Rinse and repeat. Can't get any company resources on my phone

Evil company enforced spyware. Once you configure your email and calendars using it, if you can, I would urge you then delete IntuneCompanyPortal . Unfortunately you may not be able to do that if access to your email requires that it remain installed. For some access to email may only require the initial configuration and be safely deleted after the initial configuration. Do not trust Microsoft or your employer. They may claim they can’t “see” your web browsing, contacts, texts etc. using IntuneCompanyPortal but that is a lie. If they can configure the security on your phone, they can then access anything they want on your device. I would give it zero stars given it’s insidious nature but you can’t submit a review without given at least one star. Needless to say this creates a statistical bias in any app rating. Way to go Microsoft!

So IntuneCompanyPortal is probably good for the company…it horrible for the end user. It limits so much of what I need a phone for in the first place. The company phone will now sit on my dashboard and I hope it melts there.
I will violate company policy and just use a personal phone to conduct business. Writing emails is now too painful and time consuming.
Kicking me to office 365 on mobile device is telling me you don’t want me doing more than reading emails.
Every app is linked to the company so the ones I need from 3rd parties don’t work correctly any more…the 3rd parties are trusted vendors.
Although it says stuff is private why does it keep asking for location data every time I open IntuneCompanyPortal even with it turned off. I don’t believe the privacy disclosure is true, or it would stop

I had to install it on iPhone and iPad due to company IT security requirements. As soon as I installed it started to delete all my contacts leaving only contacts that were on Outlook. It also deleted my Bluetooth connections. Fortunately I was able to go to iCloud and find the restore contacts function. However I now have to find a fix so IntuneCompanyPortal does not delete them again. IT department is clueless on a solution. SO if you install it perhaps turn off sync of contacts with iCloud until you see how it behaves? Or at least do a back up of as much as you can before install the Intune app? Good luck.

Company forced all employees to install this crap or we would lose access to our work email and would be unable to use or join calls via Teams. We’ve been working from home 1.5 years now so everyone relies on their personal phones to do their job nowadays. Company does not offer any compensation for those who use their personal devices to stay connected for work and provides no work phones. IntuneCompanyPortal instructions claim IntuneCompanyPortal will prevent screen shots from within work apps but it definitely blocks ALL screen shots, regardless of what app you’re in.

This is an intrusive app that will strip you of your privacy. There is no way IntuneCompanyPortal is compliant with gdpr and some state employee privacy law. When you install this your IT Department will gain complete access to your personal device. They can see your location, know your device password, can add and delete apps, look through your contacts. I suspect they can also read your email messages. MS privacy notice is very deceptive and does not list all the things IntuneCompanyPortal is capable of. I just know what I’ve been through and how my previous employer controlled me. I deleted IntuneCompanyPortal as soon as I left my last employer. I know ask employers if they issue their own devices. I am unwilling to sacrifice my privacy for illegal employee monitoring.

The main part of IntuneCompanyPortal - the screen where your company lets you download the apps they provide you - is nothing more than a webpage. Why build IntuneCompanyPortal just to load a webpage? It takes nearly a full minute to load IntuneCompanyPortal and start an action like downloading - even on a fast connection. Compared to a native App Store like Apple and Google provide that is quick and responsive. A lot of the images are non retina so they look grainy. Apps that you delete still say they are downloaded. If my company did force me to use IntuneCompanyPortal I would gladly delete it from my phone.

IntuneCompanyPortal is junk. It allows corporations to monitor employees physical locations 24/7 and scrub all email. In the process of allowing you corporation total access to all of your whereabouts it will not allow you to port your contacts from your work PC to your personal devices. That’s right, all of your client info everything, you will have to renter everything into your personal devises all over again.

I am actively working to organize an a large group of my colleagues to petition the manage of my firm to remove this software and restore the system we had.

Do not install this software unless you absolutely have to. HORRIBLE!

by AchurnWork

After reading all of the reviews about IntuneCompanyPortal having total control over your phone. I decided to use my old iPhone 8 that was just collecting dust to install IntuneCompanyPortal on. It doesn’t have any service on it but they got my number if they want to call me and I will just connect to the WiFi when I need send an email then shut it off to go back off the grid. IntuneCompanyPortal itself seems to be working just fine no complaints so far. Now if you don’t mind back to being off the company grid 😂

by Dr. Richard S.

I don’t use this application at all. My employer requires us to download it. The only reason I’m aware of it at all is that it insists I update it every two weeks like clockwork. I’m really surprised that most of these updates can’t be done as database updates and not modifying IntuneCompanyPortal ; who would think a program that updates other apps would be so buggy?

Of course, if the update info said something rather than nothing each time, I might understand. My internet bandwidth is so poor that I hate spending it on non-update updates.

by Stuffedpretzel

I need to have this obviously to have access to app’s for work... but what would be great is if you built in a feature that would allow us to temporarily disable the device management so that when I am not on the clock I can have control of MY device without having to remove and install. I understand this would disable access to the apps controlled but it would also allow me to turn off auto-lock so that my phone will stay open while using maps, music etc instead of auto locking

by Steve CNJ

I could not find a solution anywhere on line that fit my situation. Turns out I had to log out of APP STORE as it had a former Apple ID cached. Enter new ID, fill in all the Apple ID profile stuff including payment. Make sure you press Continue all the way to the end where everything is confirmed. Otherwise you get stuck in an infinite loop with the above message in the subject, with no option to ‘Review’ which is in itself misleading. Warm regards, and cheers to my help desk person for finding this.

by Jen12357

Especially during times of Covid, I love that this application is an in-house portal to access all the apps and everything you need to be able to do your work on your device rather than having to fire up your computer!

by A Nickname Tha Is Not Taken

I had to change my phone with Apple for warranty. Even I created an encrypted backup on my PC, IntuneCompanyPortal does not seem to backup the data and certificates required to restore on the new iPhone.

This has caused a lot of waste time and IT tickets with my company and me. With the COVID-19 situation working from home it does not help.

by Xaidwithanx

It’s stupid that my company is expecting us to download these Authenticator and apps and management profile on our phones and viewing our phone and personal data all while making our phones runs slow. It should be illegal.

by Tk22342

As soon as IntuneCompanyPortal launches, and before I can click the Login Button, the interface elements disappear and I am left with a spinning progress bar that never stops ( waited45 mins at least once). I have restarted my phone, deleted IntuneCompanyPortal , force quit IntuneCompanyPortal . Nothing has changed. I am trying to enroll a new phone (iPhone 13) after upgrading from an iPhone 8 that was previously on my company network. Looking for any help to get this resolved.

IntuneCompanyPortal exceeded my wildest expectations for a company portal app. The layout is clear and pleasant. Information is readily accessible: I can see all of my devices under corporate policies, and the ‘more’ tab at the bottom lets me know exactly what my employer can and can’t see (surprisingly, they can’t see much at all).

IntuneCompanyPortal has a very fluid experience and I’ve experienced no issues during the several months I’ve had it installed. I even updated to iPadOS 13.1 today and there was full support the day of release! Flawless app!

by Oclocl

That should be the name of this application. I run an IT dept with over 100 iOS devices and this error came up on way too many. Microsoft tech support is clueless and no help. I’ve tried all their solutions like use LTE, reset the device, make sure users are in correct groups, etc.

The only way to get email up and running is to DFU the iOS device. That’s absolutely ridiculous. IntuneCompanyPortal is terrible and I pity people like me who have to use it and wonder each time if it’s going to work or not. I’d give it zero stars if I could.

by Ricardo Montubante

IntuneCompanyPortal is beyond frustrating. You cannot get beyond to the intune/ azure settings to update multiple devices. I get an email on a holiday weekend- “you must update devices or they will be locked out!” Spend 2 hours updating 3 devices, off the clock, of course. Stupid system set up by drones that don’t realize a work week or what an inconvenience it is to spend hours on devices to update, worrying about staying “in compliance” when they are supposed to be “off the clock”. Use some common sense, people.

The step-by-step video with the screenshots was an absolute pleasure to work with. The only problem I had was the missing profile section at at 4: and 44 seconds. When I restarted the entire process it was properly presented and I was able to complete the installation. Thank you for taking the time to put this video together as I’m sure it will help many people with this migration to M mobile. Thank you again.

I have 3000 iOS device that I am going to let it enrol into InTune MDM. As I do not have DEP yet from Apple, I am supervising the devices manually using Apple Configurator and push the Company Portal app via VPP with Apple Configurator so that my devices can then launch the company portal app and enrol the devices into InTune MDM.

However, after I push my app via Apple Configurator 2 via VPP, when I launch IntuneCompanyPortal , it crashes immediately on my devices running iOS 11.4 and 11.3.1. Signing in to App Store with my own Apple ID and downloading IntuneCompanyPortal via IntuneCompanyPortal store works but VPP distribution fails.

by Thalter

So this is what it has come to. Companies expect us to turn over complete control of our own personal devices to them in exchange for the privilege of doing work for them on our own time on evenings and weekends. This is the very definition of Big Brother.

Also, I’m convinced that 90% of the five star reviews are either bots, or people who have no clue that this software essentially gives full control of your phone to your employer.

by Wants-to-be-productive

IntuneCompanyPortal seems to have lost its way. So many other applications using the iOS have great features. You move to this, and you lose the productivity of common gestures of iOS. One thing that complete baffles me: If I book a flight and have the calendar entry sent as an attachment from my travel sight, I cannot click on the calendar and have it update on my Outlook calendar. As people try to book meetings, that time slot shows open! How can a road warrior gain productivity with that miss!?

by Mike_10009

I hate having IntuneCompanyPortal on my phone, especially since this is my personal phone and it can now easily be seen and controlled by both my employer and Microsoft. Another reason why I loathe Microsoft and every piece of terrible software they spew forth into the world. If they can’t have dominance of an industry (mainly because their own products are complete and utter trash), then they’ll do whatever they can to take control and, consequently, make everyone’s experience crap. Horrible company. Horrible products. If I could give them negative stars, I would.

by Mighty Mighty D.R.

I have had to completely reset up my phone twice since my company switched to IntuneCompanyPortal. Now (3rd time) I have lost all access to my email, and all appointments in my calendar. IT can't figure out the problem, and now I may have to delete all data on my phone a start all over again.

by Mdmjeff

Only after 3.0, with location services on and intune give ‘always’ access to location, Intune device check says ‘location services are disabled for IntuneCompanyPortal’. Version 3 does not seem to be able to accurately detect device settings.

by ApplePandu

First of all, I must admit that I’m little stereotypic today Microsoft products, given the brief history of Apple penetration times!

However, now Microsoft seems to be determined to reinvent themselves to be the market leader again!

In tune is so intuitive that it competes with MS Teams, my new found love!

by TruBluDevil

I’ve never had an issue with app functionality before now, just a necessary requirement for convenient access to work stuff. But the new visual update not only makes the setup easy, but engaging as well.

by Jaaaaaaasssssooooonnnnn

This is my first time using IntuneCompanyPortal and I was very impressed by how easy it is. I do feel that there is more research to be done in the security of my personal information by giving IntuneCompanyPortal permissions.
