Unified asset visibility has improved investigations and now simplifies tracking security assets
There are some features that I have shared with our customer service manager. One of them that is relevant to us at this time is the need for better determination of unified devices. Currently, JupiterOne uses hostname weights, MAC addresses, or IP addresses to tie devices together, but we have actually requested a way for us to make those determinations ourselves. For example, when externally scanning a device using Qualys, internally it gives an IP address or FQDN, while externally it might be different. We want to be able to decide ourselves that these two devices are the same device even when they have different names and IP addresses for external and internal use. The unified devices feature is valuable and did not used to exist, and it has been fantastic. However, I believe more can be done regarding unified devices, and giving users the privilege to tie them together would be a good addition to the platform. One of the other things that interest us in JupiterOne and why we really wanted to use the tool is the compliance feature. We wanted to use it to track our compliance since we are ISO 27001 certified. However, the compliance module has not worked well, and we have had to continue tracking our compliance manually with the tools we use. Although there are some works in progress to improve the compliance part of the tool, I think if they can get it up to speed, that would be a really good improvement.

Automated lifecycle management has cut onboarding times and now drives secure, clean access
Although I am a fan of Okta Platform overall, there are areas where it could improve security outcomes and reduce admin friction. My top improvement areas include the system log and analytics upgrade, which are great for point troubleshooting, but trending and root cause analysis across large tenants still require exporting to SIEM. Verbose queries and long-range retention costs can add up. Additionally, while certificate rotations are better than most, the process is still manual for busy portfolios, especially concerning multi-SP SAML certificate rotations and app metadata drift. Two more buckets of potential improvements for Okta Platform involve user experience and security. There is the issue of push fatigue and prompt sprawl, where users receive multiple prompts across different apps and sessions. I arrived at the rating of eight because the core controls are strong and reliable, but a few operational UX and UI gaps prevent it from being rated higher. The reasons for not giving it a nine or ten include ongoing issues concerning safety and change safety, the complexity of group rules and mappings, and the lack of robustness in policy management. Additionally, there remains a need for more manual involvement than necessary, especially for large portfolios and dual certificate rotation, along with proactive SP data metadata validation.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The product’s UI is pretty decent and fast."
"JupiterOne helps us aggregate all those things on one single platform, allowing us to quickly identify what environment that asset lives in and what type of asset it is."
"The ease of deployment, ease of use, and speed of delivery is what I like about Okta Workforce Identity, as it is quite simple to use and lets you integrate any software into Okta with a network of 7,000 applications that easily integrate into it."
"The tool helps improve our security and productivity."
"The provisioning functionality has been the most valuable; this solution has good performance, fast integration, and is very responsive."
"The support for YubiKey is really good because you don't actually have to type in your username and password."
"My first application was supported by this architecture, and studying Okta Platform helped me develop that architecture because my previous architecture was not effective."
"It made things a lot easier, especially with passwords."
"Okta has more when it comes to the policy level. It has distinctive features where you can do a mix and combination to have users access applications for various business cases."
"There is no password hash saved on the cloud, which is the part that I like the most."
 

Cons

"You can only write Python queries in Jupiter, not other languages, like, SQL or PySpark."
"However, the compliance module has not worked well, and we have had to continue tracking our compliance manually with the tools we use."
"Application updates are lacking. Customer support needs to be improved."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow."
"Whenever I write Cypress test cases, we encounter problems with logging in through Okta."
"The initial setup is difficult because you're setting it up with your own portal."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"In some setup cases, there are issues with attributes not going in properly."
