Offers good support and multifactor authentication
I've been managing it in my company. I am more on the implementation side We implement the MFA feature, multifactor authentication and administrate the application. When it comes to authentication, the focus is always on security. That means using a separate device to verify the user logging in.…

Makes integration and monitoring users very easy
Unifi is a data integrated tool. I'm using the solution to manage the staff and the guests by WiFi. If a member of the staff has an account with the domain, then they're using it to connect directly to the WiFi. We have public WiFi for guests, and they use the public password for limited internet…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It provides ease of connecting all our devices."
"The soundness of the solution is its most valuable feature. For example, if you are in our corporate network, you can log on without any traffic interfering."
"The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches."
"What I like best about PingID is that it's very user-friendly. PingID is well-built as a developer tool and regularly upgrades and updates via patches. I also like that PingID has clear documents that will help you integrate it with other solutions."
"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."
"We use the product to run different reports."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy."
"It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."
 

Cons

"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."
"The initial setup appears to be difficult in the beginning."
"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."
"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."
"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."
"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."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."
"There are issues with certain Apple devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."
"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."
"Ping offers flexible pricing that's not standardized."
"The product is costly."
"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."
"There is no license. The solution is free."
