Straightforward to set up, good support, intuitive to use, and offers good value for the cost
The most valuable feature is being able to use a single master password to access all of your other passwords. One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes. In our scenario, these are notes such as how to get some of our devices on the network. They are processes and procedures that we don't want anybody else to see, especially within the IT department. It's a small department and we have very many processes that we use, but not on a daily basis, so we aren't going to remember them. By using LastPass and secure notes, we can go back to those notes in a secure fashion and remind ourselves how to do certain things. For instance, how to create a test database for accounting, which is something that we do once a year. We don't want that to be out in a non-secure fashion, where somebody in the public can see it.

Integrated well and had a single pane of glass, but downtime and pricing were issues for us
When we rolled it out, adoption was very quick. We migrated our email and other things to OneLogin, so adoption was very quick. The gateway became OneLogin, so if you wanted to get your email or anything else, you had to go through OneLogin to get it. It was quick and easy once we turned things on. Even the engineer who assisted us was very helpful. Once we turned it on, the users seamlessly started using OneLogin. They were redirected every time from others, and that ensured that there were no loopholes in what we were implementing. We had a single pane of glass for access management across the organization, but the caveat is that for managing users provisioning and deprovisioning, apps have to support that feature. This single pane of glass was very important because we eliminated ghost accounts that were not being used. We had no idea about them. After implementing OneLogin, when a user left, the deletion used to happen everywhere, so the licensing cost and all those things came down. Audit logs came in one place, so we had all the control. That improved our visibility a lot. The single pane of glass for access management enabled collaborative work between IT and Security. It simplified a lot of information for Security, and for IT, it simplified their setup process. For example, they would set up automatic provisions for emails, security training, etc. They would then just set up the user on OneLogin, and automatic provisioning would be done for them. When a user left, the user was removed automatically. That cleaned up things for us and improved processes. OneLogin 100% helped to free up time for our IT team. The main work we did was setting up automatic provisioning. We reduced our time from five to ten minutes in creating a user to doing it in an instance. For example, creating a user and assigning it on OneLogin to a department, such as IT, automatically moved them to groups and email groups on Gmail. That was no longer manual. They were just writing out the information that was given, and in the backend, it got mapped correctly to what was needed. That saved time for us. OneLogin enabled us to securely manage a growing user base or more applications with a smaller IT staff. After implementing OneLogin, we just had to work on one main platform. We did not fully need administrators for other systems. We worked in a hybrid environment. Because OneLogin was available everywhere, it improved the user experience when working remotely. It was a secure way to get to applications. They went through the OneLogin system to get to their apps. However, when everything is under a single pane of glass, there is a risk. If one user gets breached, we have a problem there. For example, I am an administrator, and my account can be breached. The mitigation would be setting up MFA. We needed to put such checks and balances.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"It is easy to use."
"Until now, I haven't found anything like the dashboard. It gives you a security score. I find that to be really great. The Sharing Center is really great as well. And the Security Challenge is really great too."
"Scalability is fine, no issues with that, especially now that they have added different user-level permissions. That has made it a lot easier to delegate out certain features to have other people do."
"The most valuable feature for me is being able to pair applications and user permissions."
"The stability has been rock solid. A couple of years ago, they were breached. However, if you had two-factor authentication enabled, it didn't affect you. We did, so it has been good."
"Off-boarding of people is easy without changing shared account passwords."
"Ease of integration with AD."
"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"OneLogin is efficient."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"Documentation."
"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."
"The single sign-on and the fact that we can integrate everything in one place and control from there were valuable features of this solution."
 

Cons

"The management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"Our biggest issue over the years was around the stability of the LDAP sync to AD."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"This product doesn't necessarily provide us with all of the functionality that we need, such as being able to share passwords with external users."
"The tool must be made more robust."
"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."
"OneLogin needs to increase the number of connectors available out of the box to connect to the different endpoints. The number of out-of-box connectors should be increased."
"having a RESTful implementation instead of RPC would have been more desirable."
"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications."
"More off-hour support."
"I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The subscription model is rated at a fair price."
"You do not have to purchase licenses for your entire organization. You can scale as adoption grows."
"LastPass was cheap as chips. It was very cheap, hence one of the reasons we went with it. If you're a small organization and you're after something that'll do 90% of your requirements, it's very good. Licensing and all that was really cheap and simple to understand."
"I have been involved with many password managers. Passportal, Secret Server, CyberArk, and BeyondTrust. I chose LastPass for our organization because of the pricing. The organization didn't want to implement something really expensive. LastPass, for what it's offering, for the price that it's offering the service, is unbeatable."
"The pricing and licensing are okay. Basically, at the last contract negotiation, they attempted to jack the rate up and we just said, "No." We still did negotiations with them, but they bumped everything up quite a bit."
"I was not terribly alarmed with the pricing, and am pleased with the fact that a home license is included with each business license."
"The previous pricing was of good value. I don't really know, as of now, whether the new pricing is. The Enterprise license is $48 per license per year now. That is a steep increase of $24, which is what it was when we first signed up."
"It would be nice to do a quarterly true-up process with them versus having to buy 50 licenses at a time when we realize we're out, then we have to buy more. So far, they have been nice about letting us exceed our allotment and just letting us true-up on our own, but a more robust quarterly true-up process would be good."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
