"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."

"I would like to see more ways to authenticate, such as adding facial recognition to the two-factor, where you log into your phone or another device."
"I don't have any issues with this solution, but it may need a better, more user-friendly interface or better design of the platform."
"There are multiple areas that are in need of improvement. It is not a mature product."
"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."
