Microsoft Intune Update 2023
Microsoft in April 2022 announced its vision to deliver a bundled suite of advanced endpoint management solutions and started the rollout with Remote Help for Windows. In March 2023, Microsoft will introduce a new bundled plan that brings together Remote Help, Microsoft Tunnel for Mobile App Management, Endpoint Privilege Management, advanced endpoint analytics capabilities and more advanced management capabilities in Microsoft Intune. More detailed information about the included functionality can be found on this page.
