Navigating the Complexity of SCCM to Intune Migrations

IT teams undertaking SCCM to Intune migrations face a daunting expedition with treacherous terrain. Existing SCCM deployments often contain hundreds or thousands of applications that must be assessed, validated, and repackaged for compatibility with modern management platforms. Manual testing creates an impossible choice: delay migration timelines by months or risk critical application failures costing up to £288,000 per day per application. Resource constraints further compound this challenge, with small teams struggling to balance business-as-usual operations alongside intensive migration efforts.

Automated Discovery

Map Your Application Landscape in Days, Not Weeks

Rimo3's intelligent automation platform maps your entire application landscape, identifying every application in your SCCM environment within days instead of weeks.

Using Rimo3 Platfrom, enterprises can determine the compatibility of their application portfolio quickly and accurately, allowing for a smooth and efficient migration process. The platform evaluates each application's suitability for Intune, identifying potential issues that need to be resolved before migration, drastically reducing the risk of errors and ensuring applications are ready for deployment.

Modern Packaging

Transform Legacy Applications for Cloud Management

Migrating to Intune often requires repackaging applications to align with modern standards. This process can be time-consuming and complex if done manually.

Rimo3 solutions automate the repackaging process for Intune, ensuring that applications are converted into modern formats quickly and correctly. This automation not only accelerates the migration process but also ensures that applications are optimized for performance in the new environment.

Predictive Testing

Eliminate Deployment Risks Before They Occur

Before migration, it is crucial to validate that applications perform as expected in the Intune environment. Without proper validation, organizations risk application failures, performance issues, and disruptions to business continuity.

Rimo3 provides robust application validation tools that ensure applications function correctly in Intune after migration. This validation process helps organizations confirm that their applications are compatible with Intune and perform well in the new environment, reducing the risk of post-migration issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

What licensing do I really need for co-management when moving from SCCM to Intune?

Microsoft now bundles Intune PC-management rights into the co-management license for Configuration Manager customers with Software Assurance, so you don't have to buy separate Intune seats for each user. You still need Microsoft Entra ID P1/P2 and an Intune Plan 1 entitlement for auto-enrollment to work. Rimo3 validates licence assignment as part of its pre-migration readiness check, preventing "device not licensed" errors during enrollment waves.

Which SCCM workloads should I switch to Intune first—and can I roll them back?

Microsoft recommends beginning with Client Apps and Resource Access workloads as these have the lowest impact and provide immediate value. Next, progress to Device Configuration and Endpoint Protection for enhanced security benefits. Finally, transition Windows Update Policies and OS Deployment once your team is comfortable with Intune operations.

Yes, all workloads can be rolled back by toggling the workload slider in the Co-management Properties screen within the SCCM console. Rimo3 validates application compatibility before switching workloads, significantly reducing the need for rollbacks while providing a safety net if required.

How long does a 500-application migration from SCCM to Intune take with automation?

Without automation, a 500-application migration typically takes 4-6 months with a dedicated team. Using Rimo3's intelligent automation platform, this timeline is reduced to approximately 10-14 days—a 90% reduction. Our customers typically experience overnight discovery for 70-80% of applications, with remediation of the remaining 20-30% taking 1-2 weeks depending on complexity. Outokumpu's experience demonstrates this efficiency, completing their 1,742-application migration in just 8 days compared to an estimated 4 months using traditional methods.

Do I have to repackage MSI apps into MSIX before Intune will deploy them?

No, Intune natively supports MSI deployment without conversion to MSIX. You can directly upload MSI files to Intune and deploy them as Win32 applications with minimal modification. However, while not mandatory, MSIX packaging offers significant benefits including cleaner installs, easier updates, and better security isolation. Rimo3's platform can automatically assess which applications would benefit from MSIX conversion and streamline the repackaging process where advantageous, providing the best of both worlds—deploy quickly now with MSI and strategically convert to MSIX where beneficial.

How do I avoid "co-management enabled but workloads unmanaged" reporting gaps?

This common reporting issue occurs when devices show as co-management enabled but workload policies aren't properly applying. To avoid these gaps:

Implement proper device group targeting for Intune policies that match your co-management settings
Verify Intune service connection points are correctly configured
Ensure client settings for cloud services are enabled in Configuration Manager
Monitor device enrollment status with regular compliance reporting

Rimo3's platform includes built-in validation that identifies policy application gaps before they impact users, with dashboard visibility into workload transition status across your estate. Our customers report 85% fewer "ghost management" issues during migration by using our proactive monitoring capabilities.
