Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"i have only one password to remember, which is the one to get me into Keeper.""Enables IT department to force very complex passwords for certain users.""It keeps my passwords organized and safe.""It syncs with all devices and supports all platforms.""Keeper has strong security features.""The chat support is quick. I have never encountered any problems. On the contrary, they have been very helpful and kind.""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.""Possibility to login using the fingerprint sensor on Android/iPhone."

More Keeper Pros →

"The product’s most valuable feature is multifactor authentication.""They have good push authentications.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The most valuable features depend on a customer's needs. Our customers generally find multi-factor authentication very useful.""Its integration components are most valuable. It integrates with everything in some way. There are some products, such as O365 or AD, with which it completely and 100% integrates. So, you can seamlessly create accounts across the board with some of these products. For some of the products with which it doesn't completely integrate, you can do some kind of interfacing.""Having a single sign-on to all our applications.""The product is easy to use.""It is a very stable solution."

More Okta Workforce Identity Pros →

"The two-factor authentication is most definitely valuable and moves us closer to being able to check off those important boxes for compliance.""Cloud-based service and management.""The tool has been very stable, in my experience. Also, I haven't faced any issues or problems with integration or connectivity.""In this version 9.1, lots of changes are done for the dashboard, User Store etc.""The VPN we are using is good and working quite well.""It is easy to use.""It's a good tool. It's pretty straightforward.""It offers more platform support, like Apple, Android, and Microsoft."

Cons
"Room for improvement in my eyes would be being able to share my credit cards and other types of information. The only thing they really share is passwords, and you can only do it with one password at a time. When you're trying to share it out or trying to remove it from being shared, you can't do multiple selections.""Ability to set up password profiles that can predefine custom fields and password complexity.""Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault.""The technical support has no experience.""I would add a category for personal documents or photos of ID cards.""The password rotation feature could be improved.""They could possibly add a pre-designed contact feature that would work similar to a cell phone contact feature.""The stability of the solution can be improved."

More Keeper Cons →

"Okta Workforce Identity can improve by having more features in governance.""The solution lacks an on-premises deployment model so it can't offer a hybrid solution. It would be ideal if clients had options that weren't just cloud-based.""SSO and MFA for improved end-user experience, and protection against password spray attacks, account password self-service.""The error logging could be improved. Okta doesn't provide enough details when you are troubleshooting an issue. It's often difficult to fix it from our end, so we always need additional support from Okta.""The guest user access could be improved.""Application updates are lacking. Customer support needs to be improved.""They should focus on improving them to provide top-notch team access management while still offering those typical features.""The training is too costly."

More Okta Workforce Identity Cons →

"In the next release, I would like the ability to work offline with remote access.""Every time that I have a new phone or computer, it takes a little longer to deploy it.""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.""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.""Maybe Symantec could consider providing a step-by-step guide for first-time users.""I would like to see the solution meet the integration needs at our company...Improving the solution's integration feature would be beneficial.""The User Store synchronization part needs to improve. Also, the logs, reports, and dashboard can be improved."
