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."
"Adaptive authentication in Okta Customer Identity is a flexible feature that is very secure and user-friendly."
"Okta is a very compliant solution, and it is easy to deploy."
"We face no challenges in integrating the product with our legacy systems."
"I find the most useful feature of Okta Platform is that it allows the preconfiguration of multiple applications, eliminating the need for customized application onboarding, which is very helpful for me to configure multiple applications such as AWS, Azure, Zoom, Salesforce, and more than 1000 applications in Okta Platform dashboard."
"Okta Platform is a great product and one of the best."
"My first application was supported by this architecture, and studying Okta Platform helped me develop that architecture because my previous architecture was not effective."
"When it comes to identity and access management, Okta Platform is in my top two solutions."
"Okta Platform authentication is essential because it minimizes the hassle of signing into multiple applications while maintaining security."
 

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."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"In the future, we'd like to see the product implement more security features, like, for example, zero-trust."
"They are far from perfect, so Okta has the worst implementation."
"The only improvement point I would suggest for Okta Platform is that it needs to redesign the feature request system because there are many important features that are not taken into consideration."
"I would not say Okta Platform is a cost-effective solution. It is an enterprise-grade solution, so it is comparatively on the higher side in terms of cost."
"What I'd like to see improved in Okta Customer Identity is the process of exporting users."
"The solution's user interface needs to be improved and made easy."
"The guest user access could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's good value for money."
"The product's price is high. For each feature, a certain payment is required."
"Okta has fairly competitive pricing."
"The product has a user-based license model."
"The solution’s pricing needs to be reasonable. You are dealing with a lot of components and the pricing is component-based."
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors."
"The licensing model is fine for general service usage. However, the charges for API features and API tokens can be quite high."
"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."
"It could be a bit too pricey for small companies. Okta Workforce Identity can add a lot of benefits, but smaller companies may not have a lot of applications that need to be managed by Okta Workforce Identity. In larger organizations, there are more departments, applications, and users to manage. Okta Workforce Identity adds a bit more value to those bigger organizations. In addition to standard licensing fees, there are also additional costs for things"
