"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it easy to install. The user experience is very good."
"FortiAuthenticator is a very good solution. It is all jury-based. FortiAuthenticator is very easy for anyone to understand how it works and be able to take action."
"Fulfilled our requirement at a good price."
"The product is good, cost-effective, and functionally efficient."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using the SMS messages."
"I prefer the passing tool that sent an active directory console to a Fortinet FortiAuthenticator, then Fortinet FortiAuthenticator does not pass the locks."
"The product’s most valuable feature is integration with FortiGate, FortiToken, FortiTalk, and multi-factor authentication."
"One of the most valuable feature is the ID soft token and hard token."
"The most valuable features of RSA SecurID Access are push notifications, multifactor authentication, and ease of integration and deployment."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I would say that the two-factor authentication and the ease of installation and configuration are the most valuable features of this solution."
"I think it is really good when it comes to the hard token side of things."
"I would like to see more security features in reference to identity login or identity identification."
"Improvements in the product could start from the dashboard, overall customization, and configuration."
"There is a room for improvement. The log is a bit difficult to access, and searching the log codes is also a bit difficult. So it would be much better if, when we open a log, it could provide detailed information about errors, reasons for failure, and such."
"We would like to see Linux-based operating systems be able to integrate with FortiAuthenticator to get two-factor authentication running on them. as well. This is a shortcoming that I have faced a few times already."
"The GUI has some shortcomings and can be made better. The GUI is not great."
"The GUI is on the older side but I'm sure that it will be upgraded soon. It works, but it looks a little dated."
"FortiAuthenticator's interface could be better."
"The product must provide 2FA for applications."
"There are different compliances across the globe; RSA SecurID Access could be more complaint-based."
"The interface needs to improve a lot. It should be easier to manage and navigate."
"It doesn't offer an agent-based or reverse-proxy-based approach to integration, which could enhance its flexibility."
"Sometimes, we encounter issues with other applications that are not compatible with RSA SecurID Access and require expert troubleshooting. At those times, we need additional support from an implementation perspective. This is an area where Oracle can improve as there is no substitute for reliable and efficient support."
