Sachin Vinay - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates secure 2FA for admins, facilitates OTP generation, and enhances security
One suggestion is to develop a more user-friendly solution that is cost-effective so that a hardware-based solution can be provided to all users using VPN services or any configuration service requiring confidentiality. This would allow for broader distribution among a larger number of system admins and software engineers, which is currently not feasible with the existing hardware-only approach.
Parwiz ElmJo - PeerSpot reviewer
It's an inexpensive, scalable solution that has improved our security
We use Keeper to store passwords We previously kept our passwords in an Excel file. Using Keeper makes us more secure.  Keeper has strong security features.  The password rotation feature could be improved. I have used Keeper for three years. I rate Keeper eight out of 10 for stability.  I…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Fortinet FortiToken is used for double factor authentication."
"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."
"I believe FortiToken is the simplest to implement."
"FortiToken is available in a soft or hard token factor, so there's some flexibility in that. Beyond that, I would say it is a stable solution that has worked for us."
"The integrated Fortinet security with the app that allows you to easily do the two-factor authentication is most valuable."
"The solution is pretty solid."
"The solution offers push notifications. When you try to connect to the VPN, FortiToken sends a push notification to our customer's device."
"I like a couple of things about this solution. Being able to share passwords with other people is valuable. You can see if the information is out on the dark web and whether you have weak passwords and the last time they were changed. You could also have the 2FA or MFA codes embedded in the application so that you don't have to use your phone or any other 2FA device, which is something very important."
"i have only one password to remember, which is the one to get me into Keeper."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
"Auto login across platforms allows for no copying and pasting."
"I can access my passwords from any Internet connected device."
"A useful solution for storing encryption keys, programming and developing a SaaS platform."
"Available for Windows platforms and also Mac OS and Linux systems."
"The chat support is quick. I have never encountered any problems. On the contrary, they have been very helpful and kind."
 

Cons

"The solution could introduce a mobile application instead of a physical product."
"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."
"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."
"I would like to see the product improvements in dynamic VLAN pooling. Specifically, when users are assigned different VLANs based on their SSID, ensuring no unintended lateral traffic between users would enhance security and efficiency."
"Its reporting should be better. The reporting feature is missing. I don't have any reporting of who has done what, what has failed, and what didn't work."
"I do not have any notes for improvement."
"The app could be improved so that you don't have to actually type in the code. It would be great if you can just do a prompt or push similar to the way Duo does."
"Maybe the price could be improved, and the integration could be better. But the integration is different from the authenticator side."
"Rearranging folders via drag/drop functionality would be very helpful."
"It would be nice to see this great tool integrate with other tools out there."
"The user experience and the mobile app could be improved."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
"I would love it if you didn't have to re-authenticate when you start up a new browser."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
"Ability to store 'files' from IOS & Android devices. You can store pics from these devices currently. Most file formats can be uploaded from PC's/Macs"
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Although the platform is relatively expensive, it offers significant value. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"Fortinet FortiToken is not an expensive solution."
"The pricing is not very high, so I'd rate it around six out of ten, where one is high and ten is low."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate and reasonable."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest, and ten is the highest, I rate the pricing an eight."
"From an Indian perspective, it's definitely costlier."
"Overall, it's cheaper than other solutions. Of course, we evaluated it five years back, and I haven't checked to see its current market position, but one reason we adopted FortiToken is its lower cost of ownership relative to other solutions we evaluated."
"I would rate the pricing as an eight out of ten. We purchased the solution at a reasonable price in 2019."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Its price is reasonable."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
