Redmond Magazine’s review of the State of Intune 2026 survey findings discusses how organizations are embracing Microsoft Intune while managing a mix of Intune and Configuration Manager. The article highlights that manual work, especially application packaging, third-party patching, troubleshooting, and update management, continues to consume significant time and resources despite growing adoption of modern endpoint management. It also notes that many administrators are turning to AI tools to reduce operational workloads, while balancing broader priorities such as Windows 11 deployment, security improvements, and ongoing cloud migration efforts.
