  • 3 minutes

In this module, you explored the Microsoft Intune Suite and its components. You learned about the business value each add-on provides, how they extend core Intune capabilities, and how to plan for licensing and deployment.

The Microsoft Intune Suite addresses advanced endpoint management scenarios beyond what core Intune provides. Endpoint Privilege Management enables Zero Trust through least privilege while maintaining productivity. Remote Help delivers secure remote assistance integrated with your organization's identity and compliance systems. Advanced Analytics provides proactive device management through AI-driven insights. Additional components like Enterprise App Management, Microsoft Tunnel for MAM, Cloud PKI, FOTA updates, and specialty devices management address specific organizational needs.

You compared Intune Suite capabilities to core Intune features, understanding where core functionality ends and premium add-ons begin. This knowledge helps you identify which capabilities address your organization's specific challenges.

You also learned about licensing options including individual add-ons, complete suite packages, and free trials. Understanding deployment planning considerations—including phased rollouts, technical prerequisites, configuration planning, and change management—prepares you to successfully implement Intune Suite capabilities.

Scenario resolution

Recall the Contoso scenario from the introduction. The organization needed to implement Zero Trust principles while maintaining productivity, provide secure remote support, and gain proactive device insights.

With your knowledge of the Intune Suite, you can now recommend:

  • Endpoint Privilege Management to remove local admin rights while allowing users to elevate approved applications
  • Remote Help to provide secure remote assistance integrated with Microsoft Entra ID and Intune compliance
  • Advanced Analytics to identify device issues proactively before they affect users

You understand the licensing requirements, can start trials to validate these capabilities, and know how to plan a phased deployment approach.

Key takeaways

  • The Microsoft Intune Suite extends core Intune with eight premium add-ons for advanced endpoint management and security
  • Each add-on addresses specific business challenges related to privilege management, remote support, analytics, application deployment, mobile connectivity, certificate management, firmware updates, and specialty devices
  • Core Intune provides comprehensive device management; Intune Suite adds capabilities for advanced scenarios
  • You can license add-ons individually or as a complete suite based on organizational needs
  • 90-day free trials (up to 250 users) let you evaluate add-ons before purchasing
  • Successful deployments require planning for phased rollouts, technical prerequisites, license assignment, user communication, and integration with existing processes
