More Ilex Sign&go Pros →

"The most valuable features of Okta Workforce Identity are SSO, MFA, and beneficial feature sets.""This solution has a lot of capabilities and features.""Okta integrates well with other solutions. Once you have integrated an application into Okta and onboarded a user, they will be onboarded for just-in-time provisioning.""It offers very helpful support. The technical team is very helpful.""We can automate the process of adding users to Okta if they are activated in Active Directory, or if they are added to the database of applications or Active Directory in the last couple of days.""Okta has introduced the Universal Directory. It has custom attribute capability and user permissions to read/write on their profiles or hide them. Profile sources and identity profile sourcing are two different components that I haven't seen in other products.""The solution so far has been very stable.""Valuable features include UD, SSO functionality, MFA and Adaptive MFA functionality, ability to link multiple Directory databases with UD."

Cons
"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."

More Ilex Sign&go Cons →

"The stability could be better.""The solution’s policies are difficult to understand due to the policy methods. They use authentication. The solution’s workflow is also difficult and not very active. They need to have proper documentation on it. In the next release, I would like to see the workflows being more digestible.""In some setup cases, there are issues with attributes not going in properly.""The integration with third-party tools needs to be improved.""In my country, there's a lot of stealing of mobile phones, and mobile phones are the authentication device through the Okta application. If someone should steal my mobile phone, which is very common in my country, he or she might have access to my company account. That's my concern.""UD attribute mapping, Okta group rules, and dynamic usage could use improvement. It also needs more in-depth functionality and features to integrate with RADIUS solutions.""The pricing could be improved.""Application updates are lacking. Customer support needs to be improved."
