Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft Intune’s MDM framework can push some updates and policies quickly, but its management agent typically checks in every 8 hours, which may delay the detection and remediation of security issues. Addigy enhances monitoring with real-time compliance checks and continuous visibility, ensuring Apple devices stay up to date and secure without relying on periodic check-ins.

Unlike Intune, which lacks built-in compliance benchmarks for Apple devices, Addigy includes pre-built CIS, NIST, CMMC, and DISA options. These automated benchmarks simplify security processes, reduce IT effort, and ensure audit-ready compliance.

Intune’s Windows-centric framework often limits customization options for Apple devices. Addigy, designed specifically for Apple environments, offers advanced customization capabilities, including Smart Software configurations, Variables, and hierarchical policies for precise management.

Yes, Addigy provides comprehensive remote support across Macs, iPhones, and iPads at no extra cost. In contrast, Intune’s remote help is limited to macOS and requires an add-on, leaving iOS devices unsupported.

Addigy includes a suite of real-time management tools — LiveDesktop, LiveTerminal, GoLive, and LiveInsights — that provide instant control and detailed insights for troubleshooting Apple devices. These capabilities are unique to Addigy and not available in Intune.

Intune’s Company Portal and Addigy’s Self Service enable app access for end users, but Addigy’s Self Service is more feature-rich and feels Apple-native. It supports Mac, iPhone, and iPad devices and offers enhanced flexibility and customization.

Addigy natively supports package installers (PKG apps) and advanced tools like Smart Software configurations and Variables, which Intune lacks. These features enable precise and efficient app deployment tailored to Apple environments.

Managing Apple devices in Intune often requires expertise in both Apple and Microsoft ecosystems, which can be a significant challenge. Addigy simplifies the process with intuitive, Apple-focused tools, eliminating the need for dual-specialized knowledge.

Addigy streamlines the deployment and patching of Microsoft 365 apps for macOS, minimizing workflow disruptions, improving security, and ensuring devices remain updated with the latest features and protections.

Addigy’s continuous monitoring provides real-time visibility and updates, reducing downtime and eliminating the risk of compliance gaps. Unlike Intune’s periodic check-in model, this approach ensures devices remain secure at all times.
