Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The integration effort with the end application is quite straightforward and easy.""Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites.""SAML 2.0.""OAuth 2 is now the de facto standard for API protection and scoped authorized delegation. IBM TAM now supports OAuth 2 and can act as fully compliant OAuth 2 authorization server.""The Verify feature: A push method which customers are going for."

More IBM Tivoli Access Manager [EOL] Pros →

"It is nice to be able to use my Touch ID and have access to all my passwords in one place.""It has a double authentication factor increasing the security level.""I can access my passwords from any Internet connected device.""Chrome extension and app.""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.""Auto login across platforms allows for no copying and pasting.""It is very easy to use, intuitive, and cost effective.""It keeps my passwords organized and safe."

More Keeper Pros →

"The product is useful for providing user access from an in-built office server as we follow the work-from-home model.""The two-factor authentication is most definitely valuable and moves us closer to being able to check off those important boxes for compliance.""The tool has been very stable, in my experience. Also, I haven't faced any issues or problems with integration or connectivity.""The VPN we are using is good and working quite well.""It offers more platform support, like Apple, Android, and Microsoft.""In this version 9.1, lots of changes are done for the dashboard, User Store etc.""It is easy to use.""Other than it provides us with remote access, so it's fairly easy to install, fairly easy to set up, and provides us the ability to get into our corporate environment."

Cons
"The profiling element is incredibly robust, but also equally as complex, it requires an off-site course to be able to understand the context or the plethora of options available.""Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve.""An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the newer appliance versions for hosting the virtual appliances on AWS will help.""The self-service portal needs improvement.""Looking at their roadmap, they have a broad grasp of the security features which the industry needs."

More IBM Tivoli Access Manager [EOL] Cons →

"Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps.""The organization of items needs improvement. For example, when I log onto the cloud version as well, everything is shown on my folder. It is hard to differentiate between files and documents in my list of items I have stored inside.""The stability of the solution can be improved.""If you purchase the premium, then after the subscription expires, you cannot edit your passwords any longer, even if you could before you purchased the paid subscription.""Search functions are sometimes weird.""Its aesthetic needs improvement.""The user experience and the mobile app could be improved.""Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities."

More Keeper Cons →

"I would like to see the solution meet the integration needs at our company...Improving the solution's integration feature would be beneficial.""It gets out of sync with Active Directory or whatever it might be, whatever the authentication piece is on Active Directory, and they just reset it on the backend. I never have to contact the vendor.""Geofencing needs improvement.""It is challenging to use when installing a new version.""The User Store synchronization part needs to improve. Also, the logs, reports, and dashboard can be improved.""Maybe Symantec could consider providing a step-by-step guide for first-time users.""If they had dashboards or a report for managers or executives, then it would allow them to see the status and have it make sense to them.""In the next release, I would like the ability to work offline with remote access."
