In development - Microsoft Intune | Microsoft Learn
“My favorite content is the "In Development for Microsoft Intune" page next to the Microsoft Intune "What's New" page.
The "What's New" page is great for being up to date, but the "In Development" page, which I like to call "Upcoming Excitement," is a treasure trove of information for anyone interested in staying one step ahead.
The In Development page provides a glimpse into what's in store for Microsoft Intune, highlighting upcoming features, enhancements, and innovations. This resource gives me a glimpse into the future of Intune and prepares me for the changes and challenges that lie ahead in device management and security.
In addition, the What's New in Intune page complements this by showcasing the latest releases, ensuring that I'm always up to date with the latest developments in the platform. Together, these pages form a dynamic duo that keeps me informed about the evolution of Intune.
All of these new features motivate me to test them out and write some blogs about my implementations, challenges, and of course, solutions.”
