MDM: Fundamentals, Security, and the Modern Desktop: Using Intune, Autopilot, and Azure to Manage, Deploy, and Secure Windows 10

Excellent Reference
I would highly recommend this book for those working with Microsoft's MDM solution, Intune. Moskowitz is a fun author who definitely makes a typically dry subject very interesting and engaging. Not only is it a good reference for the topics, but I also find it to be a good MD-101 reference as well. In fact, I would say it's better than Microsoft's official exam reference! Highly recommended and I see it as a great investment and addition to my IT library. After reading this, I really want to pick up his Group Policy book too. Kudos to Jeremy Moskowitz on making an excellent book.

Want to learn the basic/fundamentals of Intune/MDM....
then check out this book. Working with the Intune service daily I get to see the practical uses of the service and where people make mistakes or need assistance. True technology books are almost out of date as soon as they are released but this one will live for quite a bit of time at least for the basics and the understanding of Intune. I highly recommend his book for anyone working with Microsoft Intune (no capital T in Intune (ie. not InTune))

Great Summary of the Windows IT environment in 2020
This is exactly the book that every modern IT Professional needs to understand the current Windows environment. For the longest time, we became used to dealing with Group Policy, desktop apps, and manual processes. This book outlines the current environment that we deal with.

So much useful information on deploying and managing Windows 10 with MDM and Intune.
This is another great book by Jeremy. I learned so much about MDM and managing Windows 10 using Intune from this book. If you are looking for a great resource on deploying and managing Windows 10 with MDM, Intune and Autopilot, buy this book!

Comprehensive and clear
Great combination of conceptual and practical advice. An authoritative source for using Intune on Windows 10.

Out of date already
This book is reasonably well written and the author clearly knows his beans. The problem is that the book is already out of date, even after "just" two years.The author recognises early on that things are likely to progress rapidly, and that many of the things in the book will be outdated quickly.I think it depends what you expect from this book. If you're using it for reference or to read cover-to-cover (without following the practical examples), it will probably be really useful. If, like me, you were hoping to read it cover-to-cover whilst also setting up Azure AD, an MDM, etc as described by the author, you're going to find it very frustrating.To use one example: In the interim between this book being written and now Intune has been rebranded as Microsoft Endpoint Manager. The entire menu systems within Endpoint Manager are completely different to how they were in 2019 in Intune. So as you're following the book and creating profiles you're reading instructions on how it WAS done two years go, with completely outdated screenshots to boot.What you find yourself doing is Googling and reading online documentation on how to do the thing he's describing in the book. While doing this I often find myself going down a rabbit hole and reading more information online. You then end up rereading that information later in the book. As good as the book is, if you're constantly accessing online information, it makes you question why you bought the book at all!The book probably deserves 3 stars (it is reasonably well written, and logically laid out, and still contains some useful information), but I'm deducting another couple of stars because the author can't stop advertising his company and the software it makes. It's not just one or two mentions (I could live with that!), it's a constant bombardment, and even a chapter pretty much dedicated to it! At times it's almost like a brochure for his commercial products. Who wants to pay £30 for that? (not me!)

Excellent book
The book I have almost completed only a few chapters left. I gave it four stars as things have really moved around in azure aad and endpoint. Despite this it gives you plenty of stuff you need to look into doing. For example the menus are different some of the items are now formed as profile template policy. But even with this I have found this book exceptionally resource full and thank the author in prouducing this content.If you want to scratch around and look for things this book Is for you. If you want a boring walk through book were everything is layed out exactly to what is currently displayed this is not for you. My suggestion to any reader is simply take what is said and follow the guide on how to implement it but remember everything is there it has been moved and/or renamed. My suggestion to the author is when writting about csp please include which policy can be used on which version of os othee then that it's a really well put together book and worth owning. I think because I have had to do a bit of research on my own as things have moved around I have learnt more then if everything was there were the book stated
