Easy to use, reliable, and offers a straightforward setup
We are customers and end-users. We've dealt with the solution for a long time. We've seen how they developed as a startup, and how they've matured over time. They're actually quite advanced and they are sometimes cutting edge compared to other competitors. I'd recommend the solution. They do things very differently. They're very advanced and they're standards-based. They basically have got a very good vision in terms of how they do strong authentication. Other companies are actually following suit and following what they've done to support standards. They're quite advanced and simple to use, with a good support model. They have the edge compared to other solution providers. In general, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is quite good."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is a very stable solution."
"It's pretty stable as a product."
"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."
"PingFederate is a good product but there are limitations."
"If someone is looking for a solution that works both for on-prem or hybrid, I strongly recommend opting for the cloud."
"The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches."
"I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use."
 

Cons

"There's nothing wrong with the solution that we can see. However, maybe they could improve slightly by incorporating decentralized identity blockchain models into their solution."
"In the beginning, the initial setup was very complex."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in the solution, particularly in security."
"We have encountered instances where it is not easy to do authentication."
"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."
"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."
"In Ping Identity, we have had some issues. We've worked with logging and troubleshooting, including some firewall and security issues."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."
