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

"The solution is unique in catering to Fortinet, making it very useful and secure."
"We like the mobile FortiToken."
"Bangladesh is a price-sensitive market, and FortiToken is popular because it's more affordable than the Palo Alto and Cisco authentication solutions. Fortinet has a local director for Bangladesh, so they can deliver solutions to customers quickly."
"The solution offers push notifications. When you try to connect to the VPN, FortiToken sends a push notification to our customer's device."
"I believe FortiToken is the simplest to implement."
"Fortinet FortiToken is used for double factor authentication."
"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."
"FortiToken is a cost-effective solution compared to other solutions, such as Cisco."
"We can access our sign-ins and passwords on up to five devices per user. This means I can access a given site and my login and password for that site from my home and office computers as well as my phone and iPad."
"What I like the most is the fact that I can just mark anything and it is automatically copied into the clipboard."
"It syncs with all devices and supports all platforms."
"Available for Windows platforms and also Mac OS and Linux systems."
"I like the tool's keyword editor and SSO."
"A useful solution for storing encryption keys, programming and developing a SaaS platform."
"Keeper has strong security features."
"Stronger passwords are being used across the board in our organization."
 

Cons

"They need 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."
"Support is a pain point in Bangladesh because there aren't many experienced Fortinet engineers in this country. It's easier to find one certified in Cisco, Palo Alto, or Juniper."
"It could be integrated better if you could have your FortiToken, and the license would allow you to work across multiple FortiGate solutions."
"I'm not sure if it's already available, however, I wonder if there's an option to have it sent to my email address instead of having it on the mobile app."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"Maybe the price could be improved, and the integration could be better. But the integration is different from the authenticator side."
"The Fortinet FortiToken server doesn't have centralized integration with other Fortinet tools and third-party tools."
"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."
"Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities."
"Its aesthetic needs improvement."
"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."
"Room for improvement in my eyes would be being able to share my credit cards and other types of information. The only thing they really share is passwords, and you can only do it with one password at a time. When you're trying to share it out or trying to remove it from being shared, you can't do multiple selections."
"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."
"I would add a category for personal documents or photos of ID cards."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The platform's licensing cost is reasonable for our organization."
"It is included as part of our firewall license."
"The solution’s price is good."
"From an Indian perspective, it's definitely costlier."
"Fortinet FortiToken is not an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate and reasonable."
"Although the platform is relatively expensive, it offers significant value. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
