Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Most of the features are related to banking within this particular IT industry. Security and the market are also important features.""Gluu has a mobile app catering to field workers. Normal workers use the web app, a complete cloud-based solution. They log in on any device and access the system."

More Gluu Pros →

"We mainly implemented UserLock for multi-factor authentication, but the user login insights are also nice.""The most valuable features are two-factor authentication and real-time logon monitoring."

More UserLock Pros →

Cons
"I would like to see features around federation, authentication, authorization, and AI APIs with a ChatGPT interface.""The tool integrates AI into the process modeling aspect. I believe this addition will significantly enhance usability. Additionally, it might be beneficial to have the capability to import content from other tools into this platform. Our platform follows its business process modeling notation standard, which differs from BPM. It uses a simpler notation, making it easier. The ability to import content from other tools could accommodate users accustomed to different standards."

"I would like to see UserLock add the ability to automatically create a group policy in Active Directory. That might streamline the setup process.""The product and service are already great as it is but if I could add one feature, I guess it would be nice to have another factor of authentication (two additional factors) like your phone and a token for example, for when people forget their phone at home."
