We performed a comparison between Auth0, IBM Tivoli Access Manager [EOL], and Okta Workforce Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Auth0 and others in Single Sign-On (SSO)."The valuable features are that it is extremely secure and that it's developer-friendly."
"It has improved our organization by providing login authentication for a mobile app."
"It supports identity federation, FSO and multi-tenancy."
"It has a lot of customization and out-of-the-box features."
"It's a very powerful platform. It has the ability to do the usual stuff, according to modern protocols, like OIDC and OAuth 2. But the real benefit of using the platform comes from its flexibility to enhance it with rules and, now, with what they call authentication pipelines. That is the most significant feature, as it allows you to customize everything regarding the authentication and authorization process."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to integrate, irrespective of your codebase."
"It is easily connected and easy to put our app in single sign-on."
"It is very scalable because it provides a new environment for companies based on their number of users and other factors. The tool can take a lot of users."
"OAuth 2 is now the de facto standard for API protection and scoped authorized delegation. IBM TAM now supports OAuth 2 and can act as fully compliant OAuth 2 authorization server."
"SAML 2.0."
"The integration effort with the end application is quite straightforward and easy."
"Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites."
"The Verify feature: A push method which customers are going for."
"Its simplicity and its integration with various vendor-agnostic platforms are the most valuable features."
"The product requires very little maintenance."
"The initial setup is easy."
"We face no challenges in integrating the product with our legacy systems."
"I find the provisioning features and the integration with other applications useful."
"It's easy to use and straightforward."
"The most valuable features of Okta Workforce Identity are MFA, and SSO, which have high security."
"We can automate the process of adding users to Okta if they are activated in Active Directory, or if they are added to the database of applications or Active Directory in the last couple of days."
"I think they can do a better job in explaining what you're supposed to do next in order to correctly follow an idiomatic approach to using the solution beyond simply passing a JWT token to a server and having the server check then signature to validate the token."
"In the past, there was an issue with the multi-tenant where there wasn't the ability to manage them."
"There is a possibility to improve the machine-to-machine authentication flow. This part of Auth0 is not really well documented, and we could really gain some additional knowledge on that."
"The tool's price should be improved."
"The product could use a more flexible administration structure"
"The product support for multi-tenancy could be improved."
"This is a costly solution and the price of it should be reduced."
"When they introduced the Organizations feature they did support different login screens per organization. However, they introduced a dependency between this feature and another called the New Universal Login Experience. The New Experience is a more lightweight login screen, but it is much less customizable. For example, today, we are able to fully customize our login screen and even control the background image according to the time of day. We have code to do that. But we are not able to write code anymore in the New Experience."
"The self-service portal needs improvement."
"The profiling element is incredibly robust, but also equally as complex, it requires an off-site course to be able to understand the context or the plethora of options available."
"Looking at their roadmap, they have a broad grasp of the security features which the industry needs."
"An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the newer appliance versions for hosting the virtual appliances on AWS will help."
"Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve."
"SSO and MFA for improved end-user experience, and protection against password spray attacks, account password self-service."
"UD attribute mapping, Okta group rules, and dynamic usage could use improvement. It also needs more in-depth functionality and features to integrate with RADIUS solutions."
"The error logging could be improved. Okta doesn't provide enough details when you are troubleshooting an issue. It's often difficult to fix it from our end, so we always need additional support from Okta."
"The solution is very expensive."
"We've not had any problems with Okta."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve the way passwords are reset and how it interfaces with Microsoft."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve provisioning it can be made simpler."
"RESTful Web Service calls and their response seem a bit slow."
