Helps with password management and sharing
We use the solution for password management and sharing passwords. It's mainly for password security.  I like the tool's keyword editor and SSO.  Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps.  I have been working with the solution for a couple of months.  We haven't faced any…

Extremely easy to work with, simple to set up, and reasonably priced
The drawback of this solution is that in our shops, many staff members sometimes have to be borrowed from one shop to another and the solution does not really support having multiple roles. The user experience we would like to have when a person works in shop A which pays their salary is that they should have access to pretty much everything. Maybe you have somebody who is a manager in that shop A, he should be able to order new wear, he should be able to change the pricing, he should be able to empty the cash registry, and ship it to the bank. But when for instance, in COVID, people had to fill in for people in shops where a lot of people were sick, then they had to actually use user accounts of people that work in shop B. If you were employed in shop A, you could not work in shop B without borrowing somebody else's user ID and password. Which is really bad. We haven't been able to work around that and Okta Workforce Identity does not have a solution for it. We are now piloting their identity governance solution. Obviously, it's easy to give somebody access, give them an account, and give them roles, but it's hard to maintain that. For example, if you moved from, say working in a shop to working in a warehouse. But why do you still have all this shop access? The solution has until now not had anything to really support the process of taking away access. But now we are in a better release program of Okta's identity governance solution. Although it's very basic, the solution has started on a journey, but identity governance is something that Okta Workforce Identity really needs to improve. The ability or the options in the solution for changing the look and feel are not good enough because in our partner portal, essentially what they have is an ugly admin interface. The admin interface is good enough for us technical people because that's all we need. We work with the product and we're able to see the data but when it comes to presenting the service portal, Okta Workforce Identity does not have any capabilities really for making it look pretty. To add branding and different graphical user interface elements than Okta basic for essentially delegated admin for the business-to-business portal is horrifying because you're essentially using the tech admin. The only option we had and used, was to take the tech admin console and strip it. so that a vendor that has some goods that are sold in the shops, when they want to add a user on their side, say a driver or a packer on their side who should know how much they've packed in a truck to come to our warehouse, then the user interface that this vendor is using, these functional people will then have to use an extremely basic user interface.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It syncs with all devices and supports all platforms."
"It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts."
"It is very easy to use, intuitive, and cost effective."
"It is nice to be able to use my Touch ID and have access to all my passwords in one place."
"It has a double authentication factor increasing the security level."
"It has a secure password generator that incorporates random creation tools and good security practices, which allows for an easy, quick, organized update and sharing with a work team."
"The generator of complex passwords keeps me safe from being hacked."
"Can create folders for specific types of information (i.e., work, personal, and school)."
"Okta has introduced the Universal Directory. It has custom attribute capability and user permissions to read/write on their profiles or hide them. Profile sources and identity profile sourcing are two different components that I haven't seen in other products."
"Its integration components are most valuable. It integrates with everything in some way. There are some products, such as O365 or AD, with which it completely and 100% integrates. So, you can seamlessly create accounts across the board with some of these products. For some of the products with which it doesn't completely integrate, you can do some kind of interfacing."
"The solution so far has been very stable."
"The product’s most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Okta Workforce Identity is easy to use and has a lot of components."
"The most valuable features are ease of operation and visibility."
"It's easy to use and straightforward."
 

Cons

"The organization of items needs improvement. For example, when I log onto the cloud version as well, everything is shown on my folder. It is hard to differentiate between files and documents in my list of items I have stored inside."
"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."
"Its aesthetic needs improvement."
"Search functions are sometimes weird."
"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"
"Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
"It would be nice to see this great tool integrate with other tools out there."
"The solution is very expensive."
"We've not had any problems with Okta."
"The solution's user interface needs to be improved and made easy."
"The initial setup can be complex at first."
"It only facilitates provisioning and not de-provisioning."
"You can't hide the device when you're checking logs."
"The stability could be better."
"Okta Workforce Identity could improve the support system, they are too slow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Its price is reasonable."
"The licensing is per user per month and includes full technical support."
"It could be a bit too pricey for small companies. Okta Workforce Identity can add a lot of benefits, but smaller companies may not have a lot of applications that need to be managed by Okta Workforce Identity. In larger organizations, there are more departments, applications, and users to manage. Okta Workforce Identity adds a bit more value to those bigger organizations. In addition to standard licensing fees, there are also additional costs for things"
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"This solution is costly. Pricing is decent if you have less users, but it significantly goes up the more users you have, with its cost not justified."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The product has a user-based license model."
"The price of the solution is good."
