Fortinet FortiToken vs Ping Identity Platform comparison

"The initial setup is easy. You receive a QR code via email, scan it, and add it. No complicated procedures involved."

"The product provides secure access to our internal server."

"Overall, I give the product a nine out of ten."

"The solution offers push notifications. When you try to connect to the VPN, FortiToken sends a push notification to our customer's device."

"The solution is unique in catering to Fortinet, making it very useful and secure."

"I appreciate that it provides comprehensive security. It is tailored to this specific purpose, and it excels in fulfilling this purpose."

"The integrated Fortinet security with the app that allows you to easily do the two-factor authentication is most valuable."

"We like the mobile FortiToken."

"It offers robust features and customization options that justify the cost."

"It is a scalable solution."

"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."

"The soundness of the solution is its most valuable feature. For example, if you are in our corporate network, you can log on without any traffic interfering."

"What I like best about PingID is that it's very user-friendly. PingID is well-built as a developer tool and regularly upgrades and updates via patches. I also like that PingID has clear documents that will help you integrate it with other solutions."

"Setting up the infrastructure with Ping Identity Platform is very easy compared to other IAM products."

"It is a very stable solution."

"The mobile biometric authentication option improved user experience. It's always about security because, with two-factor authentication, it's always a separate device verifying the actual user logging in."

"I would like to see if FortiToken can integrate with Office 365 mail to support the same two-factor authentication experience that I have with ESET. With ESET, when a user logs in, they are easily directed to the ESET authentication page, where they are prompted to enter their OTP after supplying their username and password. I understand from support that FortiToken cannot do this with email integration. That's why I opted for ESET."

"The tool could be a little cheaper."

"I would like to see complete OAuth support. Also, if they can support it from a SaaS (Software as a Service) or cloud platform, that would be great."

"You need your mobile just to enroll the tokens, and sometimes, it's difficult to use for someone who is not knowledgeable"

"I'm not sure if it's already available, however, I wonder if there's an option to have it sent to my email address instead of having it on the mobile app."

"Fortinet support has some room for improvement. It has taken a long time to resolve some issues or find a workaround."

"It needs a lot of coupling with their other Fortinet products. To implement FortiToken, I most probably need to couple it with FortiAuthenticator for full implementation. An RSA token can be used with many devices, whereas Fortinet FortiToken is always linked to only one FortiGate device. If I want to reuse the token across five or six FortiGates, I would have to get the FortiAuthenticator product. I can't use one token to connect to different FortiGates, and I need to get another product to enable this functionality. They should also improve the support for their mobile client. There should be a more detailed roadmap for the operating systems being supported. Some of our users were using an old iOS iPhone, and they were forced to get a newer phone because FortiToken didn't support that version of iOS. Similarly, there may be a version of Android that is not supported, so the users need to change the phone. This was one of the reasons why our deployment took longer."

"Its reporting should be better. The reporting feature is missing. I don't have any reporting of who has done what, what has failed, and what didn't work."

"It requires some expertise to set up and manage."

"The management console needs to be improved. PingID should revise it."

"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."

"In Ping Identity, we have had some issues. We've worked with logging and troubleshooting, including some firewall and security issues."

"Some colleagues have mentioned API connectivity, data security, and privacy issues."

"The product's community has certain shortcomings that require improvement."

"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."

"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest, and ten is the highest, I rate the pricing an eight."

"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."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."

"From an Indian perspective, it's definitely costlier."

"The pricing is not very high, so I'd rate it around six out of ten, where one is high and ten is low."

"Fortinet FortiToken is not an expensive solution."

"The solution’s pricing is moderate and reasonable."

"Although the platform is relatively expensive, it offers significant value. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."

"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."

"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."

"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."

"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."

"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."

"The tool is quite affordable."

"The product is costly."

"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."
