Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Auth0, Okta and others in Access Management."Simplicity is the most valuable part of OneLogin."
"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"In my role, the most valuable features are two-factor authentication and self-service password reset. The most helpful feature for the institution as a whole is probably the single sign-on. As an IT director, I care about security and ease of use."
"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."
"Ease of integration with AD."
"Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had."
"The most valuable feature is that it meets the requirements of the customer. You have a lot of features in the product. Every product has them, but the question is, are these products going to meet the requirement of the customer?"
"Right now, federation that comes out-of-the-box with single sign-on is the most valuable feature that we have, and also scalability."
"The Directory is secure. It's our user store, and it's important to keep our members safe. The product does well with that."
"It's quite scalable."
"It has the ability to authenticate and authorize users. It is the main feature for our security."
"It provides the breadth and the width to provide solutions for the different kinds of technologies which we have."
"All of our applications get a point, click, and you are in, while we increase security at the same time."
"Authentication & Authorization are important because all the sites need authentication for security purposes. That has been handled pretty well all these years with SSO."
"This product doesn't necessarily provide us with all of the functionality that we need, such as being able to share passwords with external users."
"In terms of managing the users on a large scale, it would be easier if they had some kind of user management portal."
"OneLogin offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."
"I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."
"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."
"OneLogin needs to increase the number of connectors available out of the box to connect to the different endpoints. The number of out-of-box connectors should be increased."
"More off-hour support."
"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."
"The technical support could be better."
"The initial setup was complex, painful. But that is to be expected of any new setup. When you're a big bank like us, any kind of migration to a new product is hard. I expect it to be painful, and it was painful. But it's not something that you can avoid."
"We would like to the OAuth be more stable, more issues being fixed rather than not."
"CA has reporting at the moment. With the reporting, every particular segmented product has a reporting engine. I would like to see centralized reporting for all of them together."
"If the reporting feature can be integrated into SSO itself that will be an icing on the cake."
"They need to make configurations easier, and not have the engineer having to guess what will happen when he changes a particular setting."
"I think they need to integrate some of the newer types of authentication into the product. I'm not seeing the innovation when it comes to biometrics in the product."
"I would prefer to see their SAML integration be a more streamlined and easier interface."
