We performed a comparison between Amazon Cognito and OneLogin by One Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Access Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Cognito speeds up our development and saves us time."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its swift authentication."
"The multi-factor authentication setup has room for improvement."
"The most valuable features of Amazon Cognito are OTP validation and email validation."
"This is a scalable solution. If our app or general usage increases, this solution can support it."
"The most valuable features of Amazon Cognito are the pre and post-token generation, and the different Cognito triggers. It has lots of functionality and flexibility."
"One of the key benefits of this software is its ease of integration with a wide range of applications, including mobile apps and web applications. This simplifies the process of integration, and it can be seamlessly incorporated with Azure, Kubernetes, and other software systems."
"The solution is proto connective and integrates well with other AWS services."
"Ease of integration with AD."
"Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had."
"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."
"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."
"When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop."
"OneLogin is efficient."
"Simplicity is the most valuable part of OneLogin."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"Cognito triggers can improve by providing more direct use cases rather than giving a white paper. A white paper is not at all interesting, it has too many details. It would be a benefit to provide a smaller document that is summarized. The smaller version would bring microdata, macro data is not helpful."
"The MFA related to the solution's side is nonexistent."
"Amazon Cognito could improve by simplifying the configuration."
"The secure authentication of Amazon Cognito has benefited our company. We were previously using legacy signup systems."
"In a future release, we would like to have different methods to validate the characteristic of a user. For example, we would like to use biometric data to analyze the behavior of users."
"The ease and simplicity of integration could be improved when using this solution. When using Okta, scope is a single endpoint with a parameter as a scope. In the Cognito for each scope, there is a separate endpoint."
"What I found generally lacking in AWS is privileged access management (PAM)."
"I believe this product could improve by enriching user profiles."
"To offboard, you have to manually click on this checklist, each of the checkmarks. It would actually be really nice if, for offboarding someone, you just click "offboard" and it automatically runs a script to do that."
"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."
"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."
"having a RESTful implementation instead of RPC would have been more desirable."
"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."
"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 offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."
"The tool must be made more robust."
