Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."The first valuable feature is being able to see everything on one platform. This includes logs and authentication failure."
"It is very stable. We have never had any issues with this solution."
"The product's on-premise version doesn't have recurring costs."
"FortiAuthenticator is easy to use."
"The ease of use is really nice. Using Authenticator, I've been able to actually work better on my authentication due to the fact that I have a single fabric to authenticate control from my firewall and on my access points. Authentication takes place from this area."
"It keeps track of users and their IPs no matter where they are in the network. When users roam, we don't have to worry about not mapping them to an IP."
"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."
"The product enables SSO."
"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to use Active Directory groups as virtual containers instead of domains because it means that we can control our access groups better."
"It stands out as a comprehensive and adaptable solution that excels in both on-premises and cloud-based authentication, offers strong security with multi-layered authentication, and boasts a well-maintained product with reliable performance."
"The most valuable feature is the SecurID."
"It is a good solution for token identification."
"I have found RSA Authentication Manager to be scalable."
"It is a stable solution. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the provision part. The mapping and the logging is also very good. In addition, the troubleshooting, from a console point of view, is easy for administration and on the provisioning and logging part."
"Easy setup, deployment, and integration in different infrastructures, including virtual ones."
"No SMS gateway from the ISP"
"We have issues with HA (high availability). These should be addressed in future releases."
"There is a room for improvement. The log is a bit difficult to access, and searching the log codes is also a bit difficult. So it would be much better if, when we open a log, it could provide detailed information about errors, reasons for failure, and such."
"The GUI is on the older side but I'm sure that it will be upgraded soon. It works, but it looks a little dated."
"They could expand FortiAuthenticator's capabilities to accommodate a broader range of environments."
"There are some protocols, such as SHA and SHA-2, that are not supported."
"It can not use SQL to query FortiAnalyzer directly."
"Integration with some other enterprise applications could be improved."
"The user interface needs improvement."
"We found technical support was not very responsive to our requests for assistance."
"There is room for improvement in the RSA support."
"Enhancing the user interface and expanding their marketing efforts in regions like Nigeria and West Africa could be beneficial."
"We are not planning on using the solution in the future."
"Our major problem is the authentication via Microsoft, via Microsoft cloud systems. This is our major aim, to be a valued product for the future. The biggest problem is to work against cheap cloud systems. Cloud identification is our main problem at this time."
"We have encountered issue when trying to expand this particular solution for a large set of users across the country."
"Perhaps parts of the the user interface should become more intuitive."
