SureDeploy + Microsoft Intune: better together
What is Microsoft Intune?
Microsoft Intune is a cloud-based endpoint management solution. It manages user access and simplifies app and device management across your many devices, including mobile devices, desktop computers, and virtual endpoints. Intune enables IT teams to protect organisational data, manage end user access, and support users from wherever they work.
Yet while it’s incredibly powerful, Intune can also be difficult to master. Our team’s deep Intune expertise has only evolved over many years of implementing it for our clients.
SureDeploy was developed to overcome this complexity. It simplifies and automates some of Intune’s most time-consuming processes, and significantly reduces the learning curve for already overworked IT teams.
Without seamless management and maintenance, your endpoint devices can too easily become direct pathways to your network and data.
Use a device deployment solution other than Intune?
If you already have another deployment solution in place, like Microsoft Systems Centre Configuration Manager (SCCM), or a third-party Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution, talk to us about how we can help you get the results you need.
How SureDeploy helps you
get more from Intune
SureDeploy extends the functionality within Intune, providing you with a seamless and highly secure solution for your endpoint device management & maintenance.
Reduce IT learning curve
SureDeploy simplifies the complex process of deploying new endpoint devices and updates via Microsoft Intune. It allows you to manage 1000s of devices, applications, and policies quickly, simultaneously and centrally, without having to manually package applications and create policies.
Quick and easy set up
Building your organisation’s standard operating environment (SOE) from scratch can be one of Intune’s most time-consuming and complex requirements. SureDeploy makes it easy—providing pre-configured policies and processes so you can get set up in a matter of hours, not days.
800+ existing security policies
Rather than creating your own security policies from scratch, choose from our existing library of ready-to-go, proven policies— grouped into recognisable categories so you can easily select those which apply to you. For example, choose policies to implement Essential 8 security, Microsoft Defender or Baseline.
Roll back any Intune changes
Made an error with an Intune deployment, or rolled out a new update too soon? SureDeploy gives you the ability to roll-back any mistaken deployments or updates, so you can always deploy with confidence. The ability to revert does not exist within Intune alone.
See the full picture
SureDeploy provides your IT team with a snapshot of all devices, applications, and policies via a single pane of glass. This makes it easy to detect any issues, prevent problems from escalating, and stay on top of licensing updates and renewals.
Manage devices, apps and identity
By extending Intune with SureDeploy, you can automate and streamline identity management across your organisation, as well as keep apps and devices up to date—all from the one, central location. SureDeploy is also built in Microsoft Azure, meaning it integrates seamlessly across the Microsoft ecosystem, including Azure Active Directory.
More streamlined management can alleviate the workload of 1 full time employee per 300 devices.I

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can I use Intune and SureDeploy at the same time?
Yes. SureDeploy was developed to overcome the complexity of setting up and living with your Microsoft Intune Tenant. It simplifies and automates some of Intune's most time consuming processes and significantly reduces the learning curve for already overworked IT teams. If you currently deploy software with Intune or deploy apps via intune, SureDeploy can help.
-
Does SureDeploy replace Intune?
Yes... and no. SureDeploy has been specifically designed to work together with Microsoft Intune, to make it easier and faster to set up your Intune tenant. Once it's all set up, you can however use the SureDeploy portal rather than the Intune portal to manage your devices, policies and applications .
-
Does SureDeploy work with other MDM solutions
Yes, SureDeploy can work with other mobile device management solutions, though this is dependent on what you are trying to achieve. For example, for application packaging the applications would need to be available in a format that's compatible with your existing platform. If you currently have a third-party mobile device management solution in place and want to learn more, please get in touch.

“The CNS solution SureDeploy functions like an installer ‘wizard’. It detects an existing version and performs a graceful upgrade. Previously, all of this had to be done by hand. Now it’s all automated, which has enabled a huge reduction in manpower and risk.”
"When we went searching, SureDeploy came up trumps in terms of its offering and value. SureDeploy has really alleviated complexity associated with desktop management, and enables us to seamlessly provide a reliable, fully updated and secure desktop solution."
“Previously, setting up a store would take days – excluding travel time. As SureDeploy is so quick and easy to use, it has reduced the time required to set up a new store from days to minutes. It has also significantly reduced deployment time both for new stores and replacement devices.”
“Thanks to CNS and SureDeploy, we were able to add 1,400 new devices to our existing environment with very minimal interruption, and without requiring any additional IT staff. Application updates and security patches are now deployed automatically, and the entire administration process is now far more streamlined and effective. It was the smoothest device rollout we have had in over 18 years.”
“While St Catherine’s has always provided a very high quality technology experience to students, the benefit of SureDeploy has really been from an IT administration and security perspective. The automation and rapid deployment of applications, policies, updates and patches has been invaluable.”
