Find out in this report how the two Authentication Systems solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is pretty solid."
"The integrated Fortinet security with the app that allows you to easily do the two-factor authentication is most valuable."
"The product provides secure access to our internal server."
"Its ease of use is most valuable. It is simple to use and can be deployed out-of-the-box. It is quite a mature product with all the required features."
"I believe FortiToken is the simplest to implement."
"Its ease of installation is most valuable. It took me five minutes, and it was up and running. It didn't take me that long. The installation on the cell phones is pretty simple."
"The initial setup is easy. You receive a QR code via email, scan it, and add it. No complicated procedures involved."
"One of the product's most valuable features is its ease of use."
"I like how the solution allows me to support different types of hardware tokens and integrate with OTP."
"Scalable and stable."
"The most valuable feature of SafeNet Authentication Manager is authentication."
"The technical support services are good."
"We use this solution to log into virtual machines like VMware and VMware Horizon."
"The solution could introduce a mobile application instead of a physical product."
"I would like to see if FortiToken can integrate with Office 365 mail to support the same two-factor authentication experience that I have with ESET. With ESET, when a user logs in, they are easily directed to the ESET authentication page, where they are prompted to enter their OTP after supplying their username and password. I understand from support that FortiToken cannot do this with email integration. That's why I opted for ESET."
"I would like to see complete OAuth support. Also, if they can support it from a SaaS (Software as a Service) or cloud platform, that would be great."
"The solution comes with two firewalls as a bundle. In that bundle, most of the individual users can be assigned to mobile users. However, in cases of technical difficulties, users may accidentally remove the mobile application. In normal scenarios, we get back to the activation key and assign it again."
"You need your mobile just to enroll the tokens, and sometimes, it's difficult to use for someone who is not knowledgeable"
"They could enhance synchronization with mobile applications, and addressing minor issues with authentication could further improve user experience."
"The tool could be a little cheaper."
"Fortinet FortiToken should improve its push notifications."
"The problem with SafeNet is that it's not integrated with Microsoft 365."
"Lacks integration with other platforms."
"The solution should allow for support of multi-tenant architecture."
"The stability could improve."
"The product could be improved by adding more features for sending tokens via SMS or phone calls."
