Supports seamless authentication for users across multiple organizations and personal portals
The features I use in Cisco Duo include Duo Pushes to confirm my identity to the device, and eventually as MFA security was increased, I actually had to use exchange passcodes. Sometimes, I have to go into the site and get into Cisco Duo to retrieve the passcode, and many of them have been two-factor, where the sites send a passcode that I have to enter into Cisco Duo. It has been more of the latter. I have not seen issues with lagging or crashing on Cisco Duo's end; it was usually on the client end, often because someone set up a bad upgrade or there were connection issues with the Cisco Duo cloud through the administrative site.

Strong single sign on security comes packaged with simplicity in this on-premises-only solution
We do not have a huge usage load in our implementation of the product at our company. We know this because we have been working with clients and speaking with them as users and they literally have thousands of users on the product. Based on their testimonial and their lack of problems in performance, the scalability is there. In our company on our projects, we stay in the range of only hundreds of users, which is very small in comparison. As far as the number of people we require for maintenance, we are the level two maintenance with the vendor. To use and to configure on the client's side — for our clients — they really should never require in excess of one person full-time or the equivalent. Sign&Go has got a pretty low administrative requirement as far as maintenance is concerned. On our side, as far as the second level of support, I would say we get very few requests for actual issues with the product. The product stability is good. So, as far as running the maintenance on our end, we tend to only have a request is when a client needs to integrate a new workstation or do something else to expand their operations.

Password manager has strengthened daily device security and has simplified secure sharing
While Keeper Enterprise Password Manager has a good interface for password management, I believe they can make the feature for Privileged Access Management a bit more user-friendly, as right now it is somewhat complicated to get a privileged access manager running in both development and production environments. Regarding improvements needed for the deployment of Keeper Enterprise Password Manager, I would like to see a simple way to install requirements on servers so they can easily be accessed through it and use Privileged Access Management. Right now the installation is somewhat complex as there is scripting to be done. It would be great for that setup to be more simple for operators.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Duo Security simplified establishing trusted connections, making it easier to implement distributed network solutions."
"Cisco Duo has improved my operational efficiency and reduced costs in IT support, as we do not really hear anything from the end users unless it is not working for them, because it is really easy to use; they just get a pop-up, press the button, and that is all they are using it for."
"Multifactor authentication and secure two-factor authentication are the most valuable features. It's been around for a while, but now it's becoming an enforced behavior as opposed to something that you used to do as optional."
"The Verified Duo Push feature is valuable. It gives an extra level of security beyond just the regular push."
"It was a simple way of providing two-factor authentication for remote access when we hit the COVID pandemic. It was very easy and quick to get it going."
"At the moment, the ease of use is what is the best feature for me. Once it has been set up and the security can hoc to my mobile device, it's very simple to use my single sign-on, get prompted for a Duo Security, push, go to my phone, accept the push, and I'm done. It's a very simple process."
"I believe Cisco Duo is worth the investment, offering a good return on investment, as it is expensive but works very well without any downtime or high maintenance, and the support is also good."
"All features of the solution are effective, particularly those involved in identifying vulnerabilities and updates."
"The on-premises deployment meets restrictions and the end-user is able to control all the configuration in their own IT environment."
"Because of all these reasons and by comparison, we almost always recommended Ilex as the best solution for the sake of prompt and efficient project deployment."
"Stronger passwords are being used across the board in our organization."
"It is the best product we recommend to our clients."
"The solution makes my work faster and a lot safer."
"In our organization, Keeper Enterprise Password Manager has always made our life easy; with the help of the password manager, we just manage all our portals, passwords, and everything, and it's accessible with one click."
"I like Keeper's mobility and its accessibility."
"This product keeps me from duplicating passwords and helps me to use stronger passwords, and I also love the functionality of KeeperFill."
"Keeper makes it much easier for our employees to keep separate strong passwords for every application and website login."
"Customer Service: Excellent, had an issue early on with access permissions and they fixed it quick like champs."
 

Cons

"When we try to sell Cisco Duo for any license, sometimes customers approach us and say that Cisco Duo is expensive compared to competitors or that the features are not as good."
"Regarding the stability and reliability of the Cisco Duo solution, we have experienced some outages over the last few years that are significant because people can't log in."
"One issue I see is when the device is offline."
"I am not certain how Cisco Duo has helped me evolve in my IAM strategy from simple authentication to a more comprehensive identity security platform."
"I would love to see improvements around Identity and Access Management with Cisco Duo, specifically how we can use that as a central source of truth for all of our IAM tools, including Active Directory."
"Cisco Duo can be improved because people have their own personal mobile devices."
"Technical support seems to be lacking. It takes a long time for them to come back to the customer."
"We have had instances where Duo Security stops working on a user's device, which we have fixed by uninstalling and then reinstalling it."
"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."
"I would add a category for personal documents or photos of ID cards."
"The stability of the solution can 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."
"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."
"The technical support has no experience."
"Ability to set up password profiles that can predefine custom fields and password complexity."
"API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage."
"There were some political issues between account managers over there."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a reseller perspective, it's still challenging to explain the whole license strategy to a client, so we really have to be ahead of that for all the true forward conversations."
"It falls in line with everything else."
"Overall, the pricing is fair. Customers can wrap it into their Enterprise Agreement, making it easier for them to solve their issues."
"The licensing is very good because it does not cost a lot of money. It's affordable for all-sized customers, including enterprises. There is an additional cost for premium support."
"My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing of Cisco Duo has been great. We've been there for 10 years. While we haven't gone through the setup part for a while, licensing is straightforward and convenient for higher education because student populations are included. So, we don't have to pay extra for it. We just pay for our knowledge workers, which has been great, and the cost is reasonable."
"You pay per user when using this solution and the pricing is fair."
"During testing we are allowed a certain number of licenses for free."
"I am not aware of the pricing. There are two departments, and I don't have any information about them."
Information not available
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"Its price is reasonable."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
