Hello! Dilip mentioned that customers want to consolidate tools, reduce complexity, etc. Does that include the multiple Microsoft tools as well, in other words, will we be able to consolidate Config Mgr functionality so that we need only Intune?

-_RH_- You can already use Intune for managing Windows devices. But the way you do it might be slightly different: Windows Autopilot instead of OSD; Windows Update for Business instead of WSUS. Is there something specific you aren't able to do in Intune that you're able to do in ConfigMgr?
Joe_Lurie Managing servers is a huge one. Conditional access cannot be applied to on-prem servers except by IP, which is also a problem. There is quite a bit more control with Task Sequences in Config Mgr. Another issue is that Intune for whatever reason doesn't allow app install precedence for Microsoft Office.
- Actually we managet Servers with GPO and DCM. I am right that in nearest future I can manage also servers completely with intune? Acutally I see only some artifacts in policies.
JaminAlmondWhile it is not possible to use Intune to manage servers, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) does support management of MDE settings for Server OS from Intune.
