Application packaging partners

Migrating applications from Configuration Manager and other on-prem solutions to Microsoft Intune cloud native remains a challenging and time consuming undertaking, especially when dealing with complex line-of-business, legacy, and custom home-grown applications. Some organizations pursuing a full cloud-native management vision are encountering blockers related to application compatibility, re-packaging, and the scale of existing app estates - all while trying to maintain business continuity, device compliance, and preparing for the AI and Copilot era.

To address the complex realities of app migration, the Microsoft partner ecosystem has stepped up with specialized offers designed to reduce risk and accelerate cloud adoption. As part of this initiative our Microsoft partners Rimo3 and Robopack are offering no-cost, time-limited app migration service to all Intune customers who are looking to move from Configuration Manager to Intune. These services can help IT teams automate assessment, package conversion, and remediation for various app types, helping organizations realize the full value of Intune faster and with less disruption

Note: These app migration services are offered directly by partners and are subject to their terms. Microsoft makes no guarantees or commitments regarding availability or outcome.

 

Rimo3 helps IT professionals modernize, migrate, and manage applications at enterprise scale. The platform eliminates manual effort by automating packaging, validation, and patch testing. With patented IP, Rimo3 ensures every app is compatible, secure, and visible for dependencies and update readiness before deployment. Automated, unattended workflows reduce migration timelines from months to days, while contextual patch validation minimizes production risk. Rimo3 keeps environments evergreen with zero-touch app management and enhances Microsoft Intune with bulk operations, advanced controls, and unified reporting.

Robopack is a cloud-native Intune app lifecycle platform that lets you package, deploy, and keep third-party apps updated, across one or many tenants, with phased control and PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit (PSADT)-based customization. Start with a self-service migration readiness report, mapped to the library of 41,000 pre-packaged, fully documented apps ready to go, or upload your own apps to be analysed and converted. Robopack Radar discovers apps installed across your estate, allowing you to quickly migrate to Intune and uncover Shadow IT.

    This blog does not even touch on the most useful multi-tenant management tool available to Microsoft Partners AT NO ADDITIONAL Cost which is Microsoft 365 Lighthouse. This is certainly more of an advertisement for 3rd parties than actual information. Please revise to fully support, explain and help partners enable Microsoft 365 Lighthouse

      Actually, we find Lighthouse quite useless I'm sorry to say. It covers less than 30% of the functionality we need for our customers.

      Since there are over a dozen multitenant management platforms on the market, some of which are free, I'm convinced there isn't really a business case for msft to drive M365 lighthouse.

      Or is there lior​ Bela?
