Provides strong authentication feature, which requires users to enter a one-time password (OTP)
The main issue I've noticed pertains to setting up the desktop client on virtual machines in Azure, GCP, or AWS, specifically for Entrust Identity Enterprise intended for on-premises use. It works for on-premises, but I'm not sure if it's fully supported in cloud environments. If support were added, it would function perfectly with on-premises configurations. So, 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.
Santhosh Rajamanickam - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced security, reliable, helpful technical support, and easy to install
RSA SecurID Access is a scalable solution. I would rate the scalability of RSA SecurID Access a nine out of ten. Initially, our organization had around 250 users for whom we were aware of the usage of the solution. However, there were certain users for whom we were not notified due to the nature of their job, and hence we were not aware of their usage. Eventually, we decided to scale the solution for all our 4,000 users. Currently, we are using it for 250 users only. There is a high likelihood that we will expand our usage in the future.

Cons

"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."

"I would like to improve the tool's implementation and pricing."
"The product is very costly compared to other alternative solutions."
"Sometimes, we encounter issues with other applications that are not compatible with RSA SecurID Access and require expert troubleshooting. At those times, we need additional support from an implementation perspective. This is an area where Oracle can improve as there is no substitute for reliable and efficient support."
"There are different compliances across the globe; RSA SecurID Access could be more complaint-based."
"The interface needs to improve a lot. It should be easier to manage and navigate."
"It doesn't offer an agent-based or reverse-proxy-based approach to integration, which could enhance its flexibility."
