Will more support for Hybrid Entra (HAADJ) be added, for example 'co-mgmt. authority' and 'Autopilot device prep (aka Autopilot 2.0)'? I've heard it said in MS another AMA video that HAADJ is like 120 on the speedometer, it's not recommended, but a lot of big customers really need this in order to be able to make the transition.

Hi Michael Perez. Hybrid Entra Join and Co-management are meant as transitional states for devices within an org on the path to full cloud native (Entra Join + Intune managed). With that in mind, there are zero plans to improve functionality for either of these constructs (outside of security related fixes that may be required). This includes anything related to Autopilot which we strongly discourage orgs to use for hybrid join scenarios. Note though that hybrid join for existing devices (those previously provisioned) is completely fine though until those devices reach their end-of-life hardware wise or need to be reset/reimaged for another reason. What exactly do you require hybrid join for on newly provisioned devices and why are they required for transitional purposes?- MP_35Oct 01, 2024Brass ContributorOn one side we need something on-prem to manage servers, and on the other side for endpoints, Intune config profiles as well as many other features do not have enough feature parity to make the transition without lowering the security posture we are currently getting from on prem tools such as settings in our GPOs.

>many other features do not have enough feature parity Can you provide details on this? To the best of our knowledge, there are no significant gaps that would prevent an org from successfully deploying the equivalent policy set from Intune (with some smaller exceptions). We have many, many organizations that have fully and successfully transitioned to cloud native for Windows (including many extremely large orgs like Intel who recently posted an unsolicited case study on their journey).
