Offers security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed
There are a couple of things. One is the BreachWatch feature. It's one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords. So, it checks the passwords and helps improve them. There's also a security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed. Some people haven't changed their passwords for months, even though applications force them to change every 45 or 90 days. So you can catch those issues and warn them. Most applications allow for rotation, but some don't. I've seen people use the same password for years. At least Keeper tells us these passwords haven't been rotated, and we can warn them to change them manually since we can't force people to change the password.

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

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

Pros

"BreachWatch feature is one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords."
"One of the best features of Okta Workforce Identity is its integration with different SaaS applications, which makes it a better product than the competitors."
"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."
"Okta Platform has positively impacted my organization through measurable risk reduction, faster onboarding, and fewer tickets."
"Most of what I appreciate about Okta Platform are the no-code features that I have found excellent, as you have a very low requirement to code."
"Okta Workforce Identity is easy to use and has a lot of components."
"The MFA part is the best. MFA provided most of the security that we were looking at with respect to the second level of authentication. Okta Workforce Identity provides a number of options with respect to multifactor authentication, such as the app, phone call, and text. These options provide different ways of logging in for users, and they were a lot more than what we needed. This is certainly a very good feature of Okta Workforce Identity."
"The pass-through authentication is very useful."
"We find the solution to be reliable for our customers and it is nice that it is cloud-based and can be accessed from anywhere."
 

Cons

"The final implementation was challenging because we had to roll it out to three different departments within the same umbrella, each with its own domains."
"While there are limitations associated with Okta Platform regarding specific features and usage caps based on licensing, I personally have not encountered major issues."
"We had an issue with the Okta Workforce Identity dashboard once in 2023 when we had an outage, but it recovered in a few minutes."
"The product must be provided for free."
"The only aspect in which it can be improved is that the interface could be cleaner. I found this even when I was trying to do my certification exam because the certification is hands-on. You find yourself fumbling around a little bit to find simple things. This happens even when you start to get familiar with the product."
"The solution’s policies are difficult to understand due to the policy methods. They use authentication. The solution’s workflow is also difficult and not very active. They need to have proper documentation on it. In the next release, I would like to see the workflows being more digestible."
"My advice for others looking into using Okta Platform is that it is a great solution that works well, but they should pay attention to the cost."
"I have worked on Okta Platform's IGA features, and they were not great or up to the mark."
"I would consider the scalability of Okta Platform to be a six."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's good value for money."
"This solution is costly. Pricing is decent if you have less users, but it significantly goes up the more users you have, with its cost not justified."
"The price of the solution is fair for what it offers."
"Workforce Identity is well-priced."
"The pricing for Okta Workforce Identity could still be improved or made cheaper. It costs from 50 to 100 euros a year per user. Okta Workforce Identity has different packages you can choose from, and my previous company had all of them, particularly the full Okta suite."
"Okta Customer Identity is not an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing needs to be reasonable. You are dealing with a lot of components and the pricing is component-based."
"The solution is not the cheapest but not the most expensive. They are in the middle rating."
"It is costly for large companies."
