Find out what your peers are saying about Auth0, Ping Identity, Omada and others in Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM)."I like the Microsoft Authenticator app since it comes with two-factor authentication."
"We can integrate two-factor authentication with the applications."
"It is very seamless."
"As far as our security team is concerned, the ease of implementing multifactor authentication is definitely the biggest value for our organization."
"Okta has more when it comes to the policy level. It has distinctive features where you can do a mix and combination to have users access applications for various business cases."
"There is no password hash saved on the cloud, which is the part that I like the most."
"The most valuable feature of Okta Customer Identity is its SSO because it's very easy to use and it's user-friendly. Even the admin portal of the solution is very user-friendly, and you can walk through it with ease. Okta Customer Identity is not a complicated solution, and even the workflow automation feature is very, very easy to understand."
"I think all the functions of the solution are vital and important because life cycle management is important for some companies. The Single Sign-On feature is fantastic for different customers and advanced server access is really good for access to the servers."
"The solution has great multifactor authentication."
"I must do two-factor authentication when I sign in from a different location. It creates friction. It's not personalized for the end user. I would like to see specific insights."
"There is an access request system that is very limited access to the systems available for end-users. The access request should improve in Okta Customer Identity."
"The initial setup could be easier to do."
"Some limitations in scalability. Each application we work with can be completely different, resulting in highly variable implementation processes."
"Users sometimes have difficulty getting verification codes."
"What I'd like to see improved in Okta Customer Identity is the process of exporting users. Currently, it lacks this feature, and you have to use a third-party tool to export users from the group. Exporting users should be very easy, though I did notice that Okta Customer Identity is being upgraded from time to time, and I've been seeing much improvement in it compared to the previous years."
"This solution would be improved by adding biometrics features."
"Okta has a limitation with directory integrations. If you have multiple Active Directory integrations, the user distinguished name (DN) and the manager DN don't get imported properly into the Okta user profile."
"In the future, we'd like to see the product implement more security features, like, for example, zero-trust."
