Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"HelpSystems Powertech's feature that I have found most valuable is its flexibility. It is able to be extended. A lot of the products these days, especially the ones on the cloud, are limited and can't handle all the use cases. Often there is not even a way to customize the application to meet uncommon use cases and HelpSystems provides an infrastructure that lends itself to the ability to be customized."

"Keeper was user-friendly.""It is very easy to install and setup.""It is very easy to use, intuitive, and cost effective.""Can create folders for specific types of information (i.e., work, personal, and school).""Keeper Bridge.""It has a double authentication factor increasing the security level.""I like a couple of things about this solution. Being able to share passwords with other people is valuable. You can see if the information is out on the dark web and whether you have weak passwords and the last time they were changed. You could also have the 2FA or MFA codes embedded in the application so that you don't have to use your phone or any other 2FA device, which is something very important.""It is nice to be able to use my Touch ID and have access to all my passwords in one place."

Cons
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the support of the product. It's hard to get support for it. I think this is emblematic of the fact that they don't have a lot of employees who have long-term experience with it."

More Fortra's Powertech Identity & Access Manager Cons →

"They could possibly add a pre-designed contact feature that would work similar to a cell phone contact feature.""Ability to store 'files' from IOS & Android devices. You can store pics from these devices currently. Most file formats can be uploaded from PC's/Macs""I would love it if you didn't have to re-authenticate when you start up a new browser.""Search functions are sometimes weird.""The password rotation feature could be improved.""The stability of the solution can be improved.""API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage.""Maybe a sort of category organizer to help with organizing passwords for different things, such as banking, medical, shopping, and school."
