Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."Documentation is the most valuable feature, and if you ever have to reach out to them with a question, their support is also fantastic."
"It's simple. It's reliable. I haven't had any issues with it."
"The push notifications and the integrations they offer are valuable. Their mobile app is very useful. It is very easy to use."
"At the moment, the ease of use is what is the best feature for me. Once it has been set up and the security can hoc to my mobile device, it's very simple to use my single sign-on, get prompted for a Duo Security, push, go to my phone, accept the push, and I'm done. It's a very simple process."
"The multi-factor authentication process and the geo-locking features are great."
"Duo offers dual-factor authentication for our logins. I put in my credentials and hit go. Then I get an alert on my Apple watch, and I approve it. That part is just phenomenal."
"It is really scalable. It is easy once you get an application in. You can import users from Active Directory and enroll users really fast."
"Duo has allowed us to add an additional layer of security to our organization and to establish trust for every access request and secures our environment."
"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to use Active Directory groups as virtual containers instead of domains because it means that we can control our access groups better."
"We have had instances where Duo Security stops working on a user's device, which we have fixed by uninstalling and then reinstalling it."
"Duo Security should have more customized use cases. For example, if a client needs to have more customization, it would be better to connect directly with Duo's R&D to try to discuss the issues together in order to add customizations."
"They can make authentication easier. It should be done in a shorter time. Sometimes, it can take a bit more time to get the answer on your phone. You have to wait a bit longer to get the SMS code and other things. There can be some internet or connection issues. They should make it faster because sometimes, it's urgent, and you need to access something as soon as possible."
"From an administrative standpoint, I'd love to see it be a little better at remembering a device and location so that I don't have to continually authenticate. That's pretty much it."
"I would appreciate it if Duo Security could improve its integrations with Windows Hello."
"Duo Security could improve by being more compatible with other vendors."
"Duo Security could be improved with the addition of more applications."
"I believe there are two new features. I am interested in adding auto-admin services and incorporating icons for easier navigation. This could contribute to a new business idea platform. I have seen the features, and they make things easier, resolving issues from before. The platform has been updated, and there's now another link in my platform for media access. When it comes to improvements, the UI can be more user-friendly, and there is room for easier navigation. Perhaps there could be enhancements in customization. I haven't faced issues in storage or backup, but I am open to improvements in customization functionality. It's not my environment, but I see possibilities for improvement in the deployment of funds. The addition of new features is appreciated, and for customization, it could provide more freedom for users."
"The user interface needs improvement."
