Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The deployment is quick and simple.""The initial setup is easy. You receive a QR code via email, scan it, and add it. No complicated procedures involved.""The tool's support is the best.""I appreciate that it provides comprehensive security. It is tailored to this specific purpose, and it excels in fulfilling this purpose.""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.""Its ease of use is most valuable. It is simple to use and can be deployed out-of-the-box. It is quite a mature product with all the required features.""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.""I believe FortiToken is the simplest to implement."

"The level of customization for data imports and role modeling, because it helps to integrate faster, support easier and let it reuse the organization role structure.""What I like most about SailPoint IdentityIQ is that it's simple to use and easy to configure and deploy.""It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes.""The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager.""​The Certification and Provisioning features are most valuable.""The solution is pretty stable and simple to use.""It provides a lot of out-of-the-box functionalities. You don't have to do too much custom development like other solutions such as Microsoft or NetIQ. It also has a lot of out-of-the-box connectors for different sources, directories, databases, etc. Its cloud version is working very well, and its pricing is okay. Its value for money is fine for most of the customers. It is also very flexible. They have frequent new releases and patches for fixing errors and things like that.""We are happy with the SailPoint IdentityIQ’s stability."

Cons
"Maybe the price could be improved, and the integration could be better. But the integration is different from the authenticator side.""It could be integrated better if you could have your FortiToken, and the license would allow you to work across multiple FortiGate solutions.""The tool could be a little cheaper.""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.""It needs a lot of coupling with their other Fortinet products. To implement FortiToken, I most probably need to couple it with FortiAuthenticator for full implementation. An RSA token can be used with many devices, whereas Fortinet FortiToken is always linked to only one FortiGate device. If I want to reuse the token across five or six FortiGates, I would have to get the FortiAuthenticator product. I can't use one token to connect to different FortiGates, and I need to get another product to enable this functionality. They should also improve the support for their mobile client. There should be a more detailed roadmap for the operating systems being supported. Some of our users were using an old iOS iPhone, and they were forced to get a newer phone because FortiToken didn't support that version of iOS. Similarly, there may be a version of Android that is not supported, so the users need to change the phone. This was one of the reasons why our deployment took longer.""Fortinet FortiToken could be lower for some markets.""Fortinet support has some room for improvement. It has taken a long time to resolve some issues or find a workaround.""We can only use the tool with the FortiToken Mobile app."

More Fortinet FortiToken Cons →

"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple.""Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive.""I think that the onboarding framework could be improved.""The UI needs to be more user friendly. More concentration on historical policy violations would be great. In terms of new features, I would like to see artificial intelligence and machine language added.""The product has poor reporting and analytic capabilities. Reports are not easy to use and its analytic capabilities are limited.""The connector for EPIC, ServiceNow, and Duo.""The price of IdentityIQ could be lower. There are additional costs when you buy the licenses, and they force the customers to pay for them.""The mover process for this solution could be improved."

    Overview

    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.

    SailPoint is the leader in identity security for the cloud enterprise. We’re committed to protecting businesses from the inherent risk that comes with providing technology access across today’s diverse and remote workforce. Our identity security solutions secure and enable thousands of companies worldwide, giving our customers unmatched visibility into the entirety of their digital workforce, and ensuring that each worker has the right access to do their job, no more, no less. With SailPoint at the foundation of their business, our customers can provision access with confidence, protect business assets at scale and ensure compliance with certainty.
