Pros
"Workforce Identity's best features include its user-friendliness and easy setup.""This solution has a lot of capabilities and features.""One of the most beneficial features of the solution is the user provisioning and the de-provisioning feature.""Its simplicity and its integration with various vendor-agnostic platforms are the most valuable features.""The initial setup is easy.""Workforce Identity offers a comprehensive access management solution with multi-factor authentication, total control, and features like app access management, identity governance, and administration tools such as certification and access request management. These are typically found in identity management solutions, but Okta integrates them seamlessly into its user interface.""The most valuable features depend on a customer's needs. Our customers generally find multi-factor authentication very useful.""The most valuable feature in Okta Workforce Identity is the single sign-on, universal directory, and lifecycle management."

"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products.""The most valuable features of Oracle Access Manager are the single sign-on capability and is a very robust platform.

It's very flexible.""The product allows customization via custom code.""The MFA is the most valuable aspect.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.""From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves.""The product supports customization.""The product was built to be scalable."

Cons
"They should focus on improving them to provide top-notch team access management while still offering those typical features.""It's not compatible with on-premises installations, unless you host it as a SaaS. We were not able to do that. For example, imagine a scenario where the cloud is not available. Then, Okta will not work for you. That use case will readily fail because it doesn't have an on-premises installation that you can use to authenticate or provide identity and access management. If you have a purely on-premises solution that is not connected to the internet, then this will not work. This is one area that can be improved.""The solution lacks an on-premises deployment model so it can't offer a hybrid solution. It would be ideal if clients had options that weren't just cloud-based.""The only area of concern in the solution stems from the fact that my company needs some help regarding the setup phase from a partner.""Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow.""The solution can be quite expensive.""There are some issues with the interface that can be improved.""The ability or the options in the solution for changing the look and feel are not good enough because in our partner portal, essentially what they have is an ugly admin interface."

More Okta Workforce Identity Cons →

"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality.""Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities.""The technical support is not very good at all.""There are problems with stability.""The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features.""There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution.""The initial implementation can definitely be improved because you have to work on several components to configure it correctly.""In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It could be a bit too pricey for small companies. Okta Workforce Identity can add a lot of benefits, but smaller companies may not have a lot of applications that need to be managed by Okta Workforce Identity. In larger organizations, there are more departments, applications, and users to manage. Okta Workforce Identity adds a bit more value to those bigger organizations. In addition to standard licensing fees, there are also additional costs for things"
  • "License is around US$20,000 annually."
  • "I believe it competes well. The pricing is pretty competitive. I know that Microsoft also provides something similar with its MFA and identity services."
  • "It is costly for large companies."
  • "The price of this product could be lower."
  • "It has a yearly subscription. As compared to its competitors, it is quite expensive. It also has a complex licensing model."
  • "The pricing is reasonable."
  • "This solution is costly. Pricing is decent if you have less users, but it significantly goes up the more users you have, with its cost not justified."
  • More Okta Workforce Identity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Can be expensive as a solution."
  • "The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
  • "On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."
  • "The product is a little expensive."
