That's your workplace doing that, not Microsoft
Yeah seems like a request for a work provided phone would fix it. A guy I used to work with bought a burner flip phone when something like this was required and got the company to provide a work phone. After a month or two he would just openly use his normal phone and no one batted an eye.
By your logic it was my school that wanted us to learn MS products, not Microsoft. Are you sure about that?
Yes, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered with Intune...
I don't get your point, what does Intune have to do with the topic?
The original comment I replied to was talking about Intune, and having to use Company Portal on mobile devices. What are you on about?
Right, back on track. I'm sure a company wouldn't use, and require their employees use a program unless people in charge are already familiar with said product or there was a deal made for them. I don't know where the guy works but I'm sure that's a safe bet, my point is Microsoft is known to make deals with schools/uni to teach only their products instead of alternatives. It's why their products are so used - why learn something new when what you've been taught does the job
