Windows Intune helps you manage computers from almost anywhere. It delivers cloud-based management and security capabilities through a single web-based administrative console.

The Windows Intune administrator console organizes management tasks into the following workspaces. You can manage all these workspaces from almost any browser that supports Microsoft Silverlight.

System Overview workspace provides a starting point for assessing the overall health of computers across your organization, identifying issues, and performing basic management tasks such as creating computer groups and viewing reports.
Computers workspace is used to create and manage computer groups, for ease and flexibility of management.
Updates workspace is used to administer the software update process efficiently for all the managed computers in your organization. The Windows Intune administrator console supports and encourages best practices for update management and lets you focus on your environment and the tasks that you have to perform.
Endpoint Protection helps enhance the security of managed computers in your organization by providing real-time protection against potential threats, keeping malicious software definitions up-to-date, and automatically running scans.
Alerts workspace is used to quickly assess the overall health of managed computers in your organization. Alerts let you identify potential or current problems and take action accordingly to prevent or minimize negative effects on business operations.
Software workspace lists programs that are installed on all client computers that you are managing by using Windows Intune and lets you sort the inventory by software publisher, name, installation count, or category.
Licenses workspace lets you upload Microsoft Software License Terms information to Microsoft Volume License Services and lets you determine the license entitlement that corresponds to a set of Microsoft Volume License agreements.
Policy workspace is used to configure Windows Intune policies that manage settings for Updates, Endpoint Protection, Windows Firewall, and Windows Intune Center on computers. You can create policies based on templates, configure policy settings, and then deploy policies to groups of computers.
Reports workspace is used to obtain more detailed reports and print or export the information. The Reports workspace provides reports for updates, software, and licensing.
Administration workspace lets you download the most current version of the client software, view details about your Windows Intune account (such as account name, status, and active seat count), and add administrators to your account.

If you’re looking for help managing your company’s computers, this may be the product for you.

Technology in Construction & Manufacturing: Why It’s More Than Just Device Management

January 20, 2026

Modern construction and manufacturing sites are no longer just about heavy machinery; they’re digital ecosystems. Tablets, laptops, IoT sensors, and mobile apps are now essential for everything from blueprint access to production monitoring. These tools enable real-time collaboration, safety compliance, and operational efficiency. But when your workforce is spread across remote job sites or large facilities, keeping these systems connected and secure becomes a challenge. Construction Blueprint & Plan Access: Crews use tablets to view updated plans on-site, reducing errors and rework. Safety & Compliance Reporting: Mobile apps allow instant incident reporting and safety checks. Equipment Tracking: IoT sensors monitor heavy machinery usage and maintenance needs. Manufacturing Production Line Monitoring: Tablets and IoT devices track throughput and detect anomalies. Quality Control: Mobile devices capture and share inspection data in real time. Inventory Management: Connected devices streamline material tracking and reduce downtime. These tools keep projects moving, but only if they’re secure, updated, and accessible anywhere. Why Remote Access Is Critical Construction sites and manufacturing plants often operate in remote or rugged environments. Workers need secure, reliable access to company systems, whether they’re in the field, on the shop floor, or traveling between sites. Without proper management, connectivity issues and security gaps can lead to delays, data breaches, and compliance failures.
