Easy to install but needs to provide better server management and organization
I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server. Working with 100 or 200 server installations is comfortable, but not thousands. The scalability isn't very good because it's complicated. I would like more organization. For instance, they could add a table that matches an account to many servers at once. There could also be better education services. They don't have any certification program, at least in Ukraine, so the training is complicated and divided into different pieces. Cisco, for example, has a great education program that starts from the basics and progresses to advanced features.

Authentication process improves security with quick and intuitive user interface
The best feature is the speed and execution of Okta Workforce Identity. The moment you click on single sign-on, you immediately get the notification on your mobile phone, then you do the authentication and within a second you get authenticated. The entire customer experience is very good. The user interface is pretty simple, straightforward, and really good. Multi-factor authentication in Okta Workforce Identity is very useful so people who do not have access or are trying to access using just a user ID and password will be completely blocked because of this two-factor authentication. You will get the code, and as your device is authorized in the system, only that device can be used for the authentication purpose. A third person trying to access or hack your data will not be able to do that anymore. Additionally, you don't have to remember your passwords going forward. Previously, every 60 days or 90 days, passwords kept changing. With the two-factor authentication or single sign-on option in Okta Workforce Identity, you don't have to remember it anymore or write down passwords in plain text. If something goes wrong, we have the IAM team which can unlock your account immediately if you have issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"Okta Workforce Identity is easy to use and has a lot of components."
"It is dependent on the evolution of your user base. It depends on usage per user, so the more sign-ins there are, the more expensive it becomes, so it works best for smaller companies from a financial perspective."
"We find the solution to be reliable for our customers and it is nice that it is cloud-based and can be accessed from anywhere."
"The most valuable feature is the identity access authentication."
"The feature that is most valuable to me is the automated user provisioning that we set up using Okta as a major part of that process."
"The most useful features of Okta for my organization are identity and access management, single sign-on, and the flexibility for hybrid setups."
"It's easy to use and straightforward."
"Okta integrates well with other solutions. Once you have integrated an application into Okta and onboarded a user, they will be onboarded for just-in-time provisioning."
 

Cons

"The stability is not very good."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"The configuration is difficult."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
"The training is too costly."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"We have experienced some challenges in integrating this solution with Scope and Cognito."
"There is no proper documentation on integrating test cases with Okta, and this issue is troubling whenever I try to implement it."
"Therefore, if you have 10 million users, that's almost 100 million, so it is costly."
"If that phone or device gets stolen, somebody else can log into the system using that code."
"The stability could be better."
"The lifecycle management part can be improved. It should also have identity governance and the ability to choose a specific factor authentication at the application level. Its licensing and pricing can also be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."
"This is an expensive solution but the security makes it worthwhile."
"Okta has fairly competitive pricing."
"I believe it competes well. The pricing is pretty competitive. I know that Microsoft also provides something similar with its MFA and identity services."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Though I don't know about the licensing model of the product, I wouldn't be surprised if Okta offers a per user license subscription model."
"The pricing for Okta Workforce Identity could still be improved or made cheaper. It costs from 50 to 100 euros a year per user. Okta Workforce Identity has different packages you can choose from, and my previous company had all of them, particularly the full Okta suite."
"The cost per user for this solution is really high and could be reduced."
"The price of Okta Workforce Identity is competitively priced. We pay annually for the use of the solution."
