Chapter 8. Tracking and Reporting

In this chapter, we will ascertain the tasks that we will need to carry out regularly to ensure a good baseline of proactive management for the computers that we manage. We set Windows Intune policy in previous chapters, and now we have to set our own policy on regular tasks that we carry out to ensure the lowest risk of alerts due to failing computers or malware. We also need to be able to demonstrate to our business that is paying for Windows Intune that the impact is positive for the users as well as the IT team.

In this chapter, we will discuss the following areas which align to the reports available in Windows Intune and the Reports workspace:

  • Reporting basics

  • License management

  • Alerts reporting
