Single secure login has simplified daily access and strengthened multi-factor protection
Okta Platform offers several valuable features. The first one is Single Sign-On, which allows users to log in once and gain access to multiple applications without needing to enter credentials repeatedly. I believe that is one of the best features. The second one is multi-factor authentication (MFA). It adds an extra layer of security by requiring users to verify their identity through multiple methods such as a password and a mobile verification code. I use it mostly to manage secure access to enterprise applications and cloud services. Other features include user lifecycle management and integration with cloud applications. I myself have relied mostly on multi-factor authentication (MFA) because I tend to log in every day and whenever I am working or take a break, I use this multi-factor authentication to sign in. Okta Platform simplifies identity management, improves security, and allows employees to access multiple applications through a single secure login. I believe this is a very good feature. Okta Platform has improved our organization through user authentication with features like Single Sign-On and multi-factor authentication. I believe the features it provides simplify identity management, improve security, and fulfill the need for secure and centralized identity and access management.

Good authentication options, but the setup can be complex and the user interface should be improved
Many of the users with licenses are not getting their IPs all of the time. It seems that the licenses are not active on the user end. There are multiple errors. At times, when the user is trying to scan and activate the license, it comes up with an error code. The user interface could be improved. The setup could be simplified. The mobile app that is available for Digipass does not scan the QR code to activate the license. Users would like to see more functions and creation options for the user base and the UI console. They are not getting all of the features that are available on the UI Console. The features are the same but they are not able to configure them.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Okta Platform helped me secure access to cloud infrastructure, APIs, containerized workloads, and AI/GenAI services in my architecture, enhancing our security posture significantly."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"It's easy to use and straightforward."
"My favorite aspect of Okta Platform is that it is really user-friendly."
"What it's done for our clients is it's reduced the number of staff they need in order to manage their campus and their partner community services."
"I can say it is more secure, more user-friendly, and integration with applications is easier."
"Overall, I would rate Okta Customer Identity a ten."
"After implementing Okta Platform with centralized authentication and policy enforcement on top of the existing sign-in approach, our workflow has become much easier and the best part is that manual toil has almost vanished."
"OneSpan Digipass is very useful, easy to use and work with."
"OneSpan Digipass is very useful, easy to use and work with."
 

Cons

"I think the setup in the beginning can be a bit of a learning curve."
"Okta should have at least a local peering partner for countries that align with or comply with GDPR, so there are no compliance or audit questions."
"There is no proper documentation on integrating test cases with Okta, and this issue is troubling whenever I try to implement it."
"I would consider the scalability of Okta Platform to be a six."
"It is challenging to obtain a comprehensive backup."
"On the admin side, we can create our own passwords instead of generating one, which is usually difficult to explain to a user."
"A room for improvement in Okta Workforce Identity is its price. It could be cheaper. The biggest benefit of the solution is that everything works securely without extra steps, so you're saving on your workforce's time and effort because your applications work smoothly and securely, but you'd need to pay some amount of money for that. Another area that could be improved, though not necessarily regarding Okta Workforce Identity, is the SSO applications because so many of the source applications charge extra money to put the SSO to work, which means you have to buy a more expensive license. Nowadays, SSO is a mainstream functionality and it should be out-of-the-box in those applications because it's so easy to set up."
"The lifecycle management part can be improved. It should also have identity governance and the ability to choose a specific factor authentication at the application level."
"At times, when the user is trying to scan and activate the license, it comes up with an error code."
"Many of the users with licenses are not getting their IPs all of the time. It seems that the licenses are not active on the user end."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive solution but the security makes it worthwhile."
"It is costly for large companies."
"The price of Okta Workforce Identity is competitively priced. We pay annually for the use of the solution."
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors."
"Okta's pricing is right where it needs to be and right in the middle of the market."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"The product has a user-based license model."
"We pay 23 pence (approximately $0.30 USD) per user, annually, for 150,000 users."
