Join us as we break down how Intune device sync actually works today—covering check in intervals, service side processing of changes, policy and compliance evaluation, across gateways including the Intune Management Extensions (IME). We’ll talk about recent improvements to increase consistency and shorten deployment and update times, along with practical examples that dispel common myths like the lingering “8-hour refresh interval.” Walk away with a clear picture of how long actions really take, why certain scenarios behave differently, and how to monitor and optimize timing for your environment.
