Supports seamless authentication for users across multiple organizations and personal portals
The features I use in Cisco Duo include Duo Pushes to confirm my identity to the device, and eventually as MFA security was increased, I actually had to use exchange passcodes. Sometimes, I have to go into the site and get into Cisco Duo to retrieve the passcode, and many of them have been two-factor, where the sites send a passcode that I have to enter into Cisco Duo. It has been more of the latter. I have not seen issues with lagging or crashing on Cisco Duo's end; it was usually on the client end, often because someone set up a bad upgrade or there were connection issues with the Cisco Duo cloud through the administrative site.

An affordable solution for communication with customization
Feitian IAM reduces the risk of internal and external data breaches because it provides proper identities management and give greater control to administrators. Before Feitian IAM, our users need to input user+password+OTP for all our internal applications, now they only need to input once. Feitian IAM can automatically sync users from HR systems and Microsoft AD to our CRM systems and Email system, which saved a lot of time for our IT. We were using OTP tokens before Feitian IAM, Feitian IAM supports OTP and FIDO2 and many others.

Great validation and integrity features of the endpoint
Our primary use case of Safenet is for cybersecurity incidents, particularly for remote users.  I'm the customer sales leader and a key account manager and we are customers of Thales.  The validation and integrity features of the endpoint are great. Whether you're using a Mac OS or other operating…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would assess the stability and reliability of Cisco Duo as excellent because once we got it working, we have never had an issue."
"In terms of operational efficiency, Cisco Duo has improved our security workflow significantly."
"It was a simple way of providing two-factor authentication for remote access when we hit the COVID pandemic. It was very easy and quick to get it going."
"The stability and good performance of the MFA are notable since it responds within seconds, and perhaps the algorithm is good when compared to other providers' MFA algorithms."
"Since we onboarded it, since we started using Cisco Duo, we have never had any operational glitch."
"Cisco Duo is the added security layer in our overall identity and access management environment; it's the cornerstone of identity for us."
"The experience my clients have with Cisco Duo is mainly good, there are sometimes some problems, but not major ones, so it is a solid security product."
"Cisco Duo has strengthened the ability to defend against both phishing and identity-based attacks."
"They provide extra help for providing codes, and their license model is perpetual which is better than others."
"I recommend this solution because it protects information."
"Right now, we only have a small use case for the product, however, it has performed well."
"The solution is simple to use."
"The validation and integrity features of the endpoint are great."
"The interface is easy to use."
 

Cons

"I think we'd need more experience to learn Cisco Duo because we're just at the beginning of using it."
"For response time, there may be a little bit of improvement needed because sometimes you have to wait a little bit, not too long, but sometimes you really want a quick response, and it is not always like that."
"Cisco Duo did not help reduce the cost of the overall authentication method that we have in our company; instead, it increased, obviously."
"Cisco Duo has not helped my company reduce its overall authentication-related costs, as it is a cost above what we already have."
"I would like to see some features simplified, such as securing, configuring, and implementing Microsoft Remote Desktop. Other than that, the solution was rock solid throughout my time administering it."
"The only challenge is finding the right person sometimes. From what I've seen, being a named account is a big deal."
"There are limitations because Cisco Duo does not support Hotmail accounts, which many people use to log in to their systems."
"I think improving the user interface would be beneficial."
"FEITIAN has a recording feature, but it cannot record the configuration."
"I'd like to see more networking features, such as the ability to integrate network monitoring solutions and authenticate the app users."
"There's a dependency on Microsoft Azure."
"The scalability may not be there."
"SafeNet's reporting and monitoring features could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing was a lot more than what we were paying for our previous solution."
"The pricing is pretty competitive. It's pretty cheap. Anybody can adopt it."
"I believe the licensing model is excellent as it offers flexibility to our customers, allowing them to adopt a crawl, walk, or run approach."
"It was very reasonable."
"I haven't seen it in a while, but it's at par with everything else licensing-wise."
"I am not aware of the pricing. There are two departments, and I don't have any information about them."
"My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing has been good, with no issues. I am pleased that the prices remained stable after Cisco acquired the solution."
"It has a fair pricing model. I know they have different tiers, but it would be nice to have different types of licenses for certain groups of users in our organization. That way, we wouldn't have to lump everybody into one group. That would be also one complaint."
