We performed a comparison between DigiCert PKI Platform and Fortinet FortiAuthenticator based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Authentication Systems solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I emphasize the importance of automation in Wi-Fi management, particularly in tasks such as certificate renewal. The requirement extends to the ability to generate new certificates from a local server within the data center. There is a need to establish a new server for local certificate issuance and highlights the desire for automation in the deployment process. The emphasis lies in leveraging automated solutions to streamline these operations effectively."
"The most valuable feature is the communication based on PKI certificates."
"This is a scalable product."
"The product is stable and reliable."
"For someone concerned with multifactor authentication, I'm satisfied with the product."
"The feature I value the most is the one-time passwords because it helps to authenticate users so you know the timing of their usage."
"Enables easy integration, allowing for 2FA with our VPN."
"The web feature is quite versatile. It serves as the sole server authenticator and is valuable not only with FortiGate products but also within the entire Forti system, making it highly useful for me."
"I prefer the passing tool that sent an active directory console to a Fortinet FortiAuthenticator, then Fortinet FortiAuthenticator does not pass the locks."
"The logs have great detail that make it easier to evaluate and control the security environment."
"The customer finds value in adopting a platform from Jira, particularly for the ease it brings to their processes, both for on-premises operations and batch processing. Their objective is to create a new customized server specifically designed for generating certificates. This server is intended for the generation of certificates, emphasizing that it is not meant for free domain replacement. The platform of choice for this purpose is Digital One, a product that offers full customization and aligns well with the customer's preference for tailored solutions.The process of certificate issuance from Microsoft's AB involves renewal or replacement every five years. However, an issue arises in that this particular certificate requires renewal annually instead of the standard five-year cycle. The challenge is attributed to personnel changes, where an administrator responsible for the process resigns within the five-year period. To address this, we seeks an automated solution that operates seamlessly with a single sign-on approach, eliminating the need for user IDs or passwords. The automation involves approval and subsequent deployment without complexities. Us, being a partner of DigiSet, relies on their implementer for support in service deployment, installation, and resolution of any issues that may arise."
"From an automation perspective, PKI is a bit of a debatable topic and can be improved as time demands."
"The only way the solution could be improved is if it were cheaper."
"Integration with some other enterprise applications could be improved."
"The technical support team is bad."
"Lacks a simplified two-factor authentication process."
"The speed of deployment on the cloud could be improved. It took a few days when it should have been just two days"
"The solution could be more automated. It should be able to let me automate a lot of things so that what normally is done as a matter of manual processes can be handled quicker. Slow integrations can be taken up/out if there was more automation."
"Other features that would improve the product are a single sign-on where people can use their Gmail ID to log-in, etc."
"It does the job I paid for, but the graphical interface could be improved."
