Gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system

It would be nice to have a export button to file with all tenants/users so that in case of a disaster we will have the option to restore the users from file. For security certifications, we need to make sure we can restore all of our products and data in minimal time. We are backing up the data using the API but it will be better to export everything to an external file so in case of a disaster or mistake from our side, we can have the option to reload all the users and assign them to the relevant tenant as fast as possible

Offers multi-factor authentication and application support side of PingFederate but application only supports specific protocols

A lot of teams work with technical support, but I work with it for user issues only. You might need support with things like application swaps, application names, and application URLs. I didn't know where to find those in Ping Identity, so I contacted technical support for those issues. The support team is very clever and active. They provide end-to-end support once an issue is created. I have worked with most of the support team. I also work with the support team because I work with the operations team. I provide 24/7 support to production and non-production environments. I coordinate with application and network teams to troubleshoot critical tickets and issues related to Ping Identity solutions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We like the SSO, permissions and roles, multiple workspaces, and react login components."

"Every feature is multi-tenant by design, making different customer requests effortless to provide."

"The MFA policy via Frontegg allows us to enable/disable/enforce the Multi-Factor Authentication policy of our users and to enhance security and adhere to modern standards."

"Their developers were always willing to meet even though we are in very different time zones."

"The admin portal layer is super useful and saves valuable front-end development time."

"It has Audit Log and many cool features that if we were to develop them by ourselves, it would require a lot of research and development resources. Frontegg gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system in which they can also manage some of the features and roles by themself which gives them more control over their environment."

"I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use."

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

"The most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."

"From a security perspective, I highly value the product's biometric authentication methods such as FIDO, FaceID, YubiKey, and the mobile app."

"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"I would recommend PingFederate as an IAM solution for its no-code environment, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, bidirectional services, and advanced features."

"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."

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

Cons

"It would be nice to have a backup export with all tenant/users so that in case of a mistake we can have the option to restore the users."

"The PHP SDK is limited. It's not a huge deal as we can just use their web API directly, but it is something to note if you're using PHP.‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎"

"The web interface is missing a way to delete a workspace. I have accidentally created a workspace and was not able to delete it. It's a minor thing that should be supported."

"Frontegg is fairly stable, however, we are looking forward to some promised capabilities, such as more tightly integrated Feature Flag support."

"We really like the ability to add the same user across tenants. From a UX perspective, the flow can be betterized."

"We're hoping to see more user management-related features, according to Frontegg's roadmap."

"PingAccess can only have one token provider, and you cannot enable two different token providers simultaneously."

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

"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."

"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."

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

"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."

"PingID's device management portal should be more easily accessible via a link. They provide no link to the portal like they do for the service. The passwordless functionality could be more comprehensive. You can't filter based on hardware devices. Having that filtering option would be great. Device authentication would be a great feature."

"We had issues with the stability."
