Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I believe FortiToken is the simplest to implement.""Its ease of installation is most valuable. It took me five minutes, and it was up and running. It didn't take me that long. The installation on the cell phones is pretty simple.""I love the push-button authentication on FortiToken Mobile. It's also great that the soft token automatically reloads the OTP at intervals, so I always have a fresh code to enter.""The solution is simple and similar to Google Authenticator. It follows time-based authentication. We use it for hardware and software in one environment. The tool offers simple and fast authentication for SSL.""The token-based authentication is good and modern aspect.""Fortinet FortiToken is used for double factor authentication.""We like the mobile FortiToken.""The product provides secure access to our internal server."

Cons
"You need your mobile just to enroll the tokens, and sometimes, it's difficult to use for someone who is not knowledgeable""The tool could be a little cheaper.""The solution works well. We have nothing to complain about.""Maybe the price could be improved, and the integration could be better. But the integration is different from the authenticator side.""The app could be improved so that you don't have to actually type in the code. It would be great if you can just do a prompt or push similar to the way Duo does.""We can only use the tool with the FortiToken Mobile app.""The solution could introduce a mobile application instead of a physical product.""I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. The migration issue definitely brings it down a bit."

"We have some clients that are wanting to protect their Apache web servers with One Identity Defender but all the research I have done says cannot be done. It can only be oriented to an IIS server. One Identity Defender should have more integration with more types of web servers.""Maybe it could provide support for more web applications. It seems more focused on IIS web applications.""The login capabilities could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is included as part of our firewall license."
  • "Overall, it's cheaper than other solutions. Of course, we evaluated it five years back, and I haven't checked to see its current market position, but one reason we adopted FortiToken is its lower cost of ownership relative to other solutions we evaluated."
  • "I would rate the pricing as an eight out of ten. We purchased the solution at a reasonable price in 2019."
  • "On a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest, and ten is the highest, I rate the pricing an eight."

  • "Fortinet FortiToken is not an expensive solution."

    Overview

    As we've seen, passwords alone don't keep unwanted guests out of your network. Password-only authentication has led to security breaches, malware infections, and policy violations. With two-factor authentication, a password is used along with a security token and authentication server to provide far better security.  Authorized employees can remotely access company resources safely using a variety of devices, ranging from lpatops to mobile phones.

    Defender enhances security by requiring two-factor authentication to gain access to your network resources. Defender uses your current identity store within Microsoft Active Directory (AD) to enable two-factor authentication.
