Intune Management Services & Autopilot Deployment
New laptops should have a repeatable setup, and existing devices should have an owner when enrollment or a policy fails. NetSys plans Intune and Windows Autopilot around your devices, applications and support capacity, with a pilot before wider rollout.
Windows 11 24H2 Home and Pro stop receiving security updates on October 13, 2026. What to do before the deadline
The short answer
Intune management services configure and operate Microsoft Intune for device enrollment, application deployment, configuration and compliance policies. NetSys scopes the supported platforms, licenses, rollout groups, exceptions and ongoing administration. Windows Autopilot can simplify setup for supported Windows devices, but the deployment method, applications and network determine the experience. Device compliance and Microsoft Entra Conditional Access are connected controls with separate configuration and licensing requirements.
Bring your device inventory, ownership details, operating systems, business applications and current management tools. A shared front-desk computer, a remote employee’s laptop and a personal phone need different enrollment and support decisions. Identify applications that need packaging, local administrator access or vendor assistance before choosing a standard build.
Intune deployment is the implementation and operating service on this page. If the first decision is whether staff should enroll personal devices or protect selected work apps, use our mobile device management service to define that policy. An existing management platform should be assessed before it is replaced; overlapping policies can create avoidable support work.
Prove a representative setup before widening the rollout
Agree pilot devices and users, required applications, access checks and a support contact. Validate enrollment, app installation, recovery information and normal work before enforcing access restrictions more broadly. Use report-only evaluation where the selected control supports it, rather than assuming every Intune setting has an audit mode. Record exceptions, reversal options and who can authorize enforcement. A pilot reduces uncertainty; it does not guarantee that no user will encounter an issue.
What an Intune and Autopilot engagement can include
Enrollment and licensing design
Choose a supported path for each device group.
- Inventory, ownership and existing management dependencies
- Tenant licensing, supported OS versions and enrollment restrictions
- Administrator roles, rollout groups and an exception register
Applications and device configuration
Define what ready to work means for each role.
- Agreed application packaging, deployment and update responsibilities
- Platform-appropriate encryption, recovery-key and configuration settings
- Pilot checks for software conflicts, failed installs and user permissions
Windows Autopilot deployment
Select the provisioning method before ordering devices.
- Compare Windows Autopilot and device preparation against the required scenario
- Confirm vendor registration, device identity, network and licensing prerequisites
- Test first sign-in, required apps and device reassignment; document exceptions
Compliance and operating handover
Make policy failures visible and supportable.
- Compliance rules and Conditional Access assignments reviewed together
- Agreed remediation, escalation and change-approval responsibilities
- Configuration records, pilot results and a continuing support scope
A deployment plan the help desk can operate
Share your device count, platforms, current management tool and the setup or policy problems you want to resolve. We will scope licensing checks, a representative pilot and the rollout and support work.
- Device and application requirements established before enforcement
- Rollout decisions based on pilot results and recorded exceptions
- A clear split between implementation, Microsoft licenses and continuing administration

Intune & Autopilot Deployment FAQs
Does Microsoft 365 Business Premium include Intune?
Business Premium includes Intune Plan 1. Confirm the licenses assigned to the users or devices in scope and the requirements for any additional capabilities. An Intune Suite feature, specialist add-on or separate deployment service should not be assumed included because Intune appears in the subscription. The quote should separate licenses, initial setup, application work and ongoing support.
Are Windows Autopilot and Autopilot device preparation the same?
They are related provisioning options with different prerequisites and supported scenarios. Device preparation is designed for supported Windows 11 deployments; traditional Autopilot supports its own deployment modes and device-registration process. We compare the current Microsoft requirements with your join model, devices and application needs before selecting a method. A supplier hardware-hash process is not a universal requirement for every option.
Can you migrate us from another device management platform?
Yes, the assessment can scope that transition. Existing enrollment, certificates, applications, configuration profiles and access rules need an agreed removal and replacement sequence. Some devices may require user action or reset. Pilot representative devices and retain a support route before retiring the previous management service.
How long does deployment take, and what affects the price?
Device count is only one input. Supported versions, application packaging, existing policies, remote access, vendor registration and staff availability affect the work. We estimate after establishing those dependencies and agree the pilot, rollout waves and acceptance checks. There is no universal twenty-minute setup or guaranteed deployment duration.
Does a compliant status mean the device is completely secure?
No. It reports the selected policy checks and available signals. Access depends on the policies, assignments, supported clients and exceptions configured in the tenant. Compliance reporting should be combined with patching, endpoint protection, identity controls and investigation of failures; it is not certification that a device cannot be compromised.
