We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial setup of Okta Workforce Identity is straightforward. I was able to get an environment ready within half a day.""The solution so far has been very stable.""First of all, the solution is very simple.""The most valuable feature in Okta Workforce Identity is the single sign-on, universal directory, and lifecycle management.""It offers very helpful support. The technical team is very helpful.""One of the features that I have found to be very valuable is its interoperability and compatibility with all types of resources, whether it's networking, infrastructure, or applications. That is, it is compatible as well as interoperable, as far as the federated authentication is concerned.""The most valuable features of Okta Workforce Identity are MFA, and SSO, which have high security.""We find the solution to be stable."

"It's super useful to have a single pane of glass when it comes to access management.""Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had.""In my role, the most valuable features are two-factor authentication and self-service password reset. The most helpful feature for the institution as a whole is probably the single sign-on. As an IT director, I care about security and ease of use.""When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop.""The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."

Cons
"We have experienced some challenges in integrating this solution with Scope and Cognito.""Application updates are lacking. Customer support needs to be improved.""Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow.""Support could be a bit faster.""Okta Workforce Identity can improve by having more features in governance.""The ability or the options in the solution for changing the look and feel are not good enough because in our partner portal, essentially what they have is an ugly admin interface.""The solution should have greater on-premises availability, not just cloud and more package customization in its processing.""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."

More Okta Workforce Identity Cons →

"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications.""To offboard, you have to manually click on this checklist, each of the checkmarks. It would actually be really nice if, for offboarding someone, you just click "offboard" and it automatically runs a script to do that.""The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane.""This product doesn't necessarily provide us with all of the functionality that we need, such as being able to share passwords with external users.""I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is reasonable."
  • "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."
  • "This is an expensive solution but the security makes it worthwhile."
  • "The price of Okta Workforce Identity is competitively priced. We pay annually for the use of the solution."
  • "The price of the solution is good."
  • "The cost per user for this solution is really high and could be reduced."
  • "The price of Okta Workforce Identity is reasonable."
  • "The solution is not the cheapest but not the most expensive. They are in the middle rating."
  • More Okta Workforce Identity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price of the licensing is fine."
  • "The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
  • "We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
