Offers multi-factor authentication (MFA), good customizations features, very flexible

PingFederate is very flexible. We can do many customizations, and it also provides an SDK to tailor it to our specific requirements. There are also numerous plugins available. I've worked with tools like ForgeRock and Okta, but I find PingFederate to be the most customizable. It provides basic SSO functionality, but we can easily extend it. For instance, if a client requires multi-factor authentication (MFA) beyond username and password, such as OTPs or knowledge-based answers, we can integrate those. Ultimately, we tailor the solution based on client needs. In fact, I've also worked in presales, demonstrating the capabilities of PingFederate through POCs (Proof of Concepts).

Cons

"Having the ability to easily extract and view and compare and version control configurations would be ideal."

"I would love to see the upgrade procedure handled more effectively. I would prefer to have OVS installation possibilities, although the upgrade procedures should include the OS as well. You should be able to use the whole application as an appliance."

"Classification of junctions and new versions of applications, such as APIs, can be added to enable the use of more devices that utilize biometrics for Multi-Factor Authentication to improve the solution."

"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the security of the infrastructure and the server and the working networking device."

"The application portal could be improved with more options and easier customization."

"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."

"PingID's device management portal should be more easily accessible via a link. They provide no link to the portal like they do for the service. The passwordless functionality could be more comprehensive. You can't filter based on hardware devices. Having that filtering option would be great. Device authentication would be a great feature."

"It requires some expertise to set up and manage."

"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."

"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."

"They could use some bio-certification. It's just more user-friendly and more convenient than entering the one time passes. That would be an improvement."

"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."

"The timing of the token validity, if it could be extended, would be great. I'm not sure if there is even an option to configure these types of settings."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is average."

"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."

"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."

"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."

"The product is costly."
