We're in the same boat. We only really use MECM now for Remote Takeover and Patch and App/Package delivery to Servers. Non-domain and other-domain servers would no doubt present an issue with getting them into Intune, but hopefully we can get them into their in the future. Currently co-managed, but would like to go 'Full' Intune at some point. Servers are the main thing holding us back on this at the moment, don't really want to go back to bare WSUS for patching if I can avoid, like the MECM skin on top 🙂

Microsoftnlmitchell and DavidB2390 I won't say "never" but we have no plans today to add servers into Intune. Intune is designed as a solution for endpoints: PCs, macOS, mobile, Linux (to an extent). For server management we recommend moving to Azure, and for on-prem servers you can use Azure Arc.
Hope this helps.
- Thanks Joe, we have a number of servers in Azure currently, with some coming back to on-prem (long story) along with others on-prem. All are patched using MECM currently and I can't see that changing for a while tbh. We also have the Azure Arc solution with all on-prem servers enrolled into that also. We looked at Azure Update Manager a few months back but it just didn't seem quite there in terms of what you could to what and when etc etc, perhaps I need another look, things may have changed.
