Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."If you have to log in to something, you must go to Duo Security to confirm that you're who you are on your phone."
"The most valuable aspect is the authentication and the SSO."
"I love Duo Security's push notifications. It's simple, fast, and secure. From the user's perspective, the solution is seamless. The security aspect is great."
"Another feature is the single pane of glass management. That's important for analytics and also for troubleshooting. It means there's one place that you go to at least start the troubleshooting process."
"Multifactor authentication and secure two-factor authentication are the most valuable features. It's been around for a while, but now it's becoming an enforced behavior as opposed to something that you used to do as optional."
"It's easy to use for the security part, and it helps to improve our security posture."
"We're working remotely. It helps us keep people more safe. Its adoption has been fine. I like the fact that you can bypass it if you need to because there are situations where the internet doesn't work, etc."
"It has definitely reduced embedding. We found a lot of problems with attackers being able to compromise accounts. Now, when they try to access accounts, they are not able to do so because there is an added layer of protection. Once we know that a username and password are compromised, we just reset the password to protect the company."
"The solution is easy to use."
"I'd like to see it integrated into other applications. I know there are some integrations, but I haven't been able to explore that any further."
"Sometimes, it's a little harder for customers to adopt."
"I would like to see some features simplified, such as securing, configuring, and implementing Microsoft Remote Desktop. Other than that, the solution was rock solid throughout my time administering it."
"Integration between Duo Security and FTDs needs improvement. Integrating Next Generation Firewall safety with Duo Security currently requires a proxy agent between Active Directory and the appliance. It's an additional factor that we need to think about. It would be great to have direct integration with FTD so that we don't have to worry about middleware products. For the rest of the Cisco Secure solutions, the APIs need improvement."
"Its documentation must be in French because we are a French-speaking country. They should also provide more training documentation. Its management interface should also be improved. They should also improve its update period. If I compare its update period with other products such as Palo Alto firewalls, this solution is really slow in updates."
"We found it difficult to integrate it into our broader product family of Microsoft tools and other applications used across our organization."
"Duo Security should better organize its tile feature to organize applications better."
"For the back-end, there could be a few more security features applied."
"The solution could improve how it scours each website."
