What is our primary use case?
Protectimus is used mainly to protect Windows and RDP accounts with multi-factor authentication. We also use their authentication tokens and authentication app for our user authentication.
A specific example of how we use Protectimus in our daily workflow is that we protect access to Windows accounts for our employees. We also protect access to Windows servers via RDP using Protectimus multi-factor authentication. We give our users and administrators a choice of tokens. This solution is very useful for administrators because they don't need to install the software on every computer. There is a group installation which is very easy, and we appreciate the automatic registration feature. Our users register their tokens themselves, and they can choose which type of token to use, whether it is an app by Protectimus or another authentication method, such as a hardware token.
What is most valuable?
Protectimus offers several best features that include user automatic registration, user self-service, and a variety of authentication methods.
We find ourselves relying on the automatic registration feature for users most often because our administrators don't have to do extra work. We just install this software on Windows computers, and every time a user logs in for the first time, they have to get registered in the authentication system themselves. They enroll their token themselves, and our administrators don't have to do anything about it. Then, our users will use this multi-factor authentication method they have chosen every time they log in, and it secures our system. Protectimus is needed because of this automatic registration feature, which is useful for both administrators and users.
Protectimus positively impacts our organization by securing access to all our corporate environment.
What needs improvement?
Protectimus's guides and documentation are sometimes not very clear, and we have to contact the support team to help us. The documentation could be improved. Additionally, when we need new features, we sometimes have to wait for months to implement these features. The feature implementation process could be faster.
