What is Microsoft Intune Product Family

Let’s discuss the Microsoft Intune Product Family in this post. Microsoft does not offer a product called Microsoft Endpoint Manager because it recently changed its brand name to Microsoft Intune.

SCCM or ConfigMgr and Intune will be rebranded during MS Ignite 2019. In Ignite 2022, Microsoft changed the UEM brand name to Microsoft Intune. Thus, there is no longer a product suite called MEM or Microsoft Endpoint Manager.

From the Microsoft perspective, Intune and SCCM are merging into one product offering called Microsoft Intune. Microsoft Endpoint Manager MEM is Microsoft Intune Now.

Microsoft Endpoint Manager(a.k.a. MEM) has more than two or three productions under one branding. Using Microsoft Intune, you can take a flexible path to cloud management. The Microsoft Intune product family has six products under its umbrella.

It was quite a surprising announcement during Microsoft Ignite that SCCM and Intune are becoming one product—MEM. I never had any clue about these changes!

Re-brand SCCM to MEM Configuration Manager MECM or MEMCM. More d tails from David James.

Re-brand Intune to MEM Intune – MEMI 🙂 That is my speculation. I don’t know what exactly Intune will be called.

As per David James- > Is #SCCM finally dead? No, but it’s rebranded, and I will do my best to retire the hashtag. I consider here are three parts to this announcement. The first is out. The t ey pillars are coming today and tomorrow. …#ConfigMgr#Memcm#Mempowered

@djammmer – I know many folks are r/presenting content for the next few weeks. We at Micr oft w still refer to the product as #configmgr. We will not be using “system center” or #SC int reference, as Config r still exists! And it is not going away! But it is not part of MEM.

@djammmer – “Microsoft Endpoint Manager is a big step forward as we cl if our vision for the future of dern man ent. -manage ent is a destination”!! Not a brie, it can be a destination.

The following is the quote from Microsoft’s announcement, “The future of management: Microsoft Endpoint Manager.”

  • Our mana cement vis o has not been as simple as possible. ConfigMgr and Intune have played a role, but it hasn’t always what the future holds.
  • So, let me clarify this mission includes both ConfigMgr and Intune. Co-management isn’t a bridge; it’s a destination.
  • In addition to Intune and ConfigMgr, MEM includes the Device Management Admin Center (DMAC) and Desktop Analytics.
