Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Entrust is an enterprise account, and they have a support system. Their training is also top-notch, and they are willing to share their knowledge with their partners.""I am impressed with Entrust because they are one of the most advanced identity access management companies. Their portfolio of products is well aligned with the CISA zero trust framework. If you compare the features of Entrust products with the CISA pillars of zero trust, you'll see that they're perfectly matched with CISA requirements.""The integration matrix of the solution is huge compared to others.""It is a scalable solution. You can add users and credentials without problems.""This solution is flexible and easy to use for our clients. We use it with different kinds of applications and integrate it with different processes."

"I would rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. The solution is a smart product that anyone can easily access and manage. The solution is a good product for multi-factor authentication and to secure remote authentication in the corporate environment.""The tool's support is the best.""Fortinet FortiToken provides security and authenticates that the right external people are working with a company's system.""The integrated Fortinet security with the app that allows you to easily do the two-factor authentication is most valuable.""The initial setup is easy. You receive a QR code via email, scan it, and add it. No complicated procedures involved.""Its ease of installation is most valuable. It took me five minutes, and it was up and running. It didn't take me that long. The installation on the cell phones is pretty simple.""The token-based authentication is good and modern aspect.""The solution is pretty solid."

Cons
"The product is very costly compared to other alternative solutions.""I would like to improve the tool's implementation and pricing.""We are introducing new processes and are migrating to a new version. Once we explore new functionalities, we'll be able to assess what could be improved.""It functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP."

More Entrust Identity Enterprise Cons →

"It could be integrated better if you could have your FortiToken, and the license would allow you to work across multiple FortiGate solutions.""Configuration can be confusing due to the lack of community and context-sensitive help. We've had to rely on technical support, which slows down the setup process.""Fortinet support has some room for improvement. It has taken a long time to resolve some issues or find a workaround.""I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. The migration issue definitely brings it down a bit.""We can only use the tool with the FortiToken Mobile app.""The problem is that our customers create budgets annually based on the figures at the beginning of the fiscal year. Our customers get annoyed when the price is adjusted in the middle of the year. I understand that it's a difficult time, and price increases make sense for hardware devices. However, FortiToken is a software product, so it shouldn't be affected by factors like chip shortages or supply chain issues. Software solutions should have more transparent and predictable pricing.""I would like to see if FortiToken can integrate with Office 365 mail to support the same two-factor authentication experience that I have with ESET. With ESET, when a user logs in, they are easily directed to the ESET authentication page, where they are prompted to enter their OTP after supplying their username and password. I understand from support that FortiToken cannot do this with email integration. That's why I opted for ESET.""Support is a pain point in Bangladesh because there aren't many experienced Fortinet engineers in this country. It's easier to find one certified in Cisco, Palo Alto, or Juniper."

    Overview

    Identity Enterprise is an integrated IAM platform that supports a full suite of workforce, consumer, and citizen use cases. Ideally suited for high-assurance applications that require a Zero Trust approach for thousands or millions of users, Identity Enterprise can be deployed on-premises.

    As we've seen, passwords alone don't keep unwanted guests out of your network. Password-only authentication has led to security breaches, malware infections, and policy violations. With two-factor authentication, a password is used along with a security token and authentication server to provide far better security.  Authorized employees can remotely access company resources safely using a variety of devices, ranging from lpatops to mobile phones.
