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.

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

"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 tool's support is the best."
"Overall, I rate the FortiToken solution as nine out of ten. I would definitely recommend it due to its effectiveness in enhancing security."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution offers push notifications. When you try to connect to the VPN, FortiToken sends a push notification to our customer's device."
"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."
"Overall, I give the product a nine out of ten."
"Fortinet FortiToken is used for double factor authentication."
"Possibility to login using the fingerprint sensor on Android/iPhone."
"I like the tool's keyword editor and SSO."
"A useful solution for storing encryption keys, programming and developing a SaaS platform."
"It keeps my passwords organized and safe."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
"The chat support is quick. I have never encountered any problems. On the contrary, they have been very helpful and kind."
"It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts."
"Keeper was user-friendly."
 

Cons

"It could be integrated better if you could have your FortiToken, and the license would allow you to work across multiple FortiGate solutions."
"The Fortinet FortiToken server doesn't have centralized integration with other Fortinet tools and third-party tools."
"The solution could introduce a mobile application instead of a physical product."
"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."
"You need your mobile just to enroll the tokens, and sometimes, it's difficult to use for someone who is not knowledgeable"
"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."
"It needs a lot of coupling with their other Fortinet products. To implement FortiToken, I most probably need to couple it with FortiAuthenticator for full implementation. An RSA token can be used with many devices, whereas Fortinet FortiToken is always linked to only one FortiGate device. If I want to reuse the token across five or six FortiGates, I would have to get the FortiAuthenticator product. I can't use one token to connect to different FortiGates, and I need to get another product to enable this functionality. They should also improve the support for their mobile client. There should be a more detailed roadmap for the operating systems being supported. Some of our users were using an old iOS iPhone, and they were forced to get a newer phone because FortiToken didn't support that version of iOS. Similarly, there may be a version of Android that is not supported, so the users need to change the phone. This was one of the reasons why our deployment took longer."
"Fortinet support has some room for improvement. It has taken a long time to resolve some issues or find a workaround."
"API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage."
"If you purchase the premium, then after the subscription expires, you cannot edit your passwords any longer, even if you could before you purchased the paid subscription."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
"Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities."
"Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps."
"Rearranging folders via drag/drop functionality would be very helpful."
"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

"It is included as part of our firewall license."
"I would rate the pricing as an eight out of ten. We purchased the solution at a reasonable price in 2019."
"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 platform's licensing cost is reasonable for our organization."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"The solution’s price is good."
"Although the platform is relatively expensive, it offers significant value. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"Its price is reasonable."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
