Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."The ability for users to authenticate via phone, from any random phone number, has been very helpful for managing a distributed workforce. Using it across a distributed network for securing access to our applications is big for us."
"The most valuable features of Duo Security are visibility and OTP authentication. The OTP is very important because it is a self-enrollment feature, you are able to enroll users very quickly with a shorter time period."
"It's pretty easy for users to figure it out."
"The ease of deploying Cisco Duo Security and onboarding has greatly benefited our customers."
"Multifactor authentication is the most valuable feature."
"The flexibility is the most valuable feature. We use it for the app on the phone. When we're at different locations, the phone is usually there, so we can use that. It has just been a very flexible option."
"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."
"Since Duo Security provides a single place to log in for our SaaS applications, we don't have to manage user accounts and remember passwords for each specific application."
"OneSpan Digipass is very useful, easy to use and work with."
"When you come to the push in Duo Security, there are some integrations where you have to use the code instead of the push functionality."
"The only challenge is finding the right person sometimes. From what I've seen, being a named account is a big deal."
"We found it difficult to integrate it into our broader product family of Microsoft tools and other applications used across our organization."
"Technical support could be improved. I don't think all support should have to go through an agreement."
"One area that might be improved is that setting up SMS texting is not as easy as using the app, even though it does support it."
"I wouldn't mind seeing some options for remembering a device for a short period of time or a specific login, particularly for administrative engineering staff, as we may be logging in to four or five different services."
"I wish that the support would be a little bit more prompt and a little bit more flexible because there are certain things that they will do and certain things they won't do."
"We have a 24 hour timer for our Duo cookie and we would like to reduce this to a shorter time when using Duo."
"At times, when the user is trying to scan and activate the license, it comes up with an error code."
