Why Use Microsoft Intune?
Microsoft Intune is Microsoft’s cloud service for managing and securing the devices your business runs on: Windows and Mac computers, iPhones, iPads and Android devices, all from one console. Every device gets set up the same way, patched on schedule, and blocked from company data the moment it falls out of line.
For many businesses the licence is already sitting inside Microsoft 365 Business Premium, unused. That makes Intune less a purchase decision and more a matter of finally switching on something you already own.
Why Do I Need Microsoft Intune Consulting Services?
Because Intune’s value lives in its policies, and policies are decisions, not defaults. What counts as a compliant device? Who can enrol a personal phone? What happens when a laptop goes missing? Our Microsoft Intune consultants have made these calls with organisations across many industries, and we bring the patterns that work. Here is where that experience shows.
Every device in one console
Windows, macOS, iOS and Android managed from a single place, whether the device sits in your office or a site hut three hours away. New machines arrive preconfigured through Windows Autopilot, and standardised builds mean a replacement laptop behaves exactly like the one it replaced.
Built on your existing Microsoft identity
Intune plugs into Entra ID and Microsoft 365, so conditional access, multi-factor authentication and app deployment all speak the same language. We connect it to whatever you already run, including hybrid environments where on-premises Active Directory still has a role to play.
Security you can demonstrate
Compliance policies turn device security from a hope into a report: encryption on, patches current, screen lock enforced, and non-compliant devices denied access automatically. When an auditor, insurer or major customer asks how your devices are controlled, the answer is evidence rather than assurances.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I integrate Intune with my existing IT infrastructure?
Yes. Intune can work alongside an existing on-premises Active Directory through hybrid join, or replace group policy entirely for cloud-first businesses, and it manages Windows, macOS, iOS and Android from the one console. For most of our clients the path is gradual: new devices arrive cloud-managed, older ones migrate as they are replaced, and nothing has to happen in one weekend.
How does Microsoft Intune ensure the security of my data?
By making access conditional on the device earning it. Compliance policies check that a device is encrypted, patched and screen-locked before it can touch company data, and conditional access blocks anything that fails the test. If a laptop or phone goes missing, the work data on it can be wiped remotely without touching personal photos. Security becomes something the fleet proves continuously, not something you hope is true.
