Cons
"I would like them to make it as user-friendly as possible. Simplicity is what we need. Load and go.""After a Windows update, it started acting up. It blocked several programs. It became inactive after the Windows update and I had to remove Trusteer, allowing my computer to go back to its norm."

More IBM Trusteer Cons →

"RSA Adaptive Authentication lacks a mechanism to verify the identity of a new user in the Enrollment event workflow.""It has taken years to implement.""Reporting modules is one of the major areas that can be improved further.""The product is basically unusable. We need better ease of use; it's overly complicated.""Better filters when searching for events. The current features for current filters when searching fraud events are not very comprehensive. You can only filter by certain fields in the transaction.""I would like to see a more adaptive type of solution, something that we could use on our web pages..."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "You may need to opt for second best if funding is low and the number of users is huge. However, the pricing is able to be negotiated if your user figures are huge."
  • "Keep the proxy service layer on premises. That consumes SaaS security services on the back-end."
  • "Customers need to deploy the solution in a very expensive infrastructure. RSA should should think about a less expensive infrastructure for customers because the solution costs around $100,000, and the infrastructure needed to support that solution may be even more expensive than that price."
  • "The pricing is $50 per head, yearly."
