It's seamless now to to this through Intune."

"The ease of deployment, ease of use, and speed of delivery is what I like about Okta Workforce Identity. It is very easy to use. For a lot of software, you need to be trained extensively and have a very technical background. Okta Workforce Identity is quite simple. You can integrate any software into Okta. They've got a network of 7,000 applications that easily integrate into it."
"It made things a lot easier, especially with passwords."

"The solution is very expensive."
"On the admin side, we can create our own passwords instead of generating one, which is usually difficult to explain to a user."
