Straightforward to set up, good support, intuitive to use, and offers good value for the cost
The most valuable feature is being able to use a single master password to access all of your other passwords. One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes. In our scenario, these are notes such as how to get some of our devices on the network. They are processes and procedures that we don't want anybody else to see, especially within the IT department. It's a small department and we have very many processes that we use, but not on a daily basis, so we aren't going to remember them. By using LastPass and secure notes, we can go back to those notes in a secure fashion and remind ourselves how to do certain things. For instance, how to create a test database for accounting, which is something that we do once a year. We don't want that to be out in a non-secure fashion, where somebody in the public can see it.

Streamlines access management with top-notch support, and a user-friendly interface, making it a highly effective solution for businesses of all sizes
During my evaluation of various products, one standout feature of OneLogin that impressed me was their mobile app for authentication through push notifications. Unlike traditional methods involving rotating codes, the OneLogin app simplifies the process by sending a push notification asking if the login attempt is legitimate. If confirmed, the login proceeds seamlessly. The primary benefit is its user-friendly interface, making it particularly accessible for non-technical users. One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance. Their sales team has also been highly responsive and helpful in connecting me with necessary resources, although we haven't faced any major challenges.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"Increased security around password management for teams and collaborative efforts with external vendors."
"This product helps keep us secure."
"It's improved security; we don't have to worry about people storing password loosely and secure them."
"The stability has been rock solid. A couple of years ago, they were breached. However, if you had two-factor authentication enabled, it didn't affect you. We did, so it has been good."
"Off-boarding of people is easy without changing shared account passwords."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"It is easy to use."
"It's super useful to have a single pane of glass when it comes to access management."
"In my role, the most valuable features are two-factor authentication and self-service password reset. The most helpful feature for the institution as a whole is probably the single sign-on. As an IT director, I care about security and ease of use."
"Simplicity is the most valuable part of OneLogin."
"When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"Documentation."
"The single sign-on and the fact that we can integrate everything in one place and control from there were valuable features of this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."
 

Cons

"The ability to set up an account expiration limit/date would be very useful."
"One thing I wish LastPass had is an integration with Active Directory, not for synchronizing users but to actually manage, in some way, privileged accounts by replacing the password of LastPass itself."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"I struggle a little bit with the mobile app. As a browser extension, it works really well, and we are able to get to what we need to. However, on the phone, it's not quite as easy to navigate."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"I'd like OneLogin to have a customization section that displays the company's offerings, categorized by different topics."
"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."
"In terms of managing the users on a large scale, it would be easier if they had some kind of user management portal."
"I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."
"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."
"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications."
"The tool must be made more robust."
"The uptime has not been great recently, with some outages lasting six, seven, or eight hours."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"LastPass was cheap as chips. It was very cheap, hence one of the reasons we went with it. If you're a small organization and you're after something that'll do 90% of your requirements, it's very good. Licensing and all that was really cheap and simple to understand."
"I was not terribly alarmed with the pricing, and am pleased with the fact that a home license is included with each business license."
"If you import from sources like XML, keepass, CSV files be sure to clean the import files, this reduces the adjustments in the slow tool itself."
"The subscription model is rated at a fair price."
"The pricing and licensing are okay. Basically, at the last contract negotiation, they attempted to jack the rate up and we just said, "No." We still did negotiations with them, but they bumped everything up quite a bit."
"The previous pricing was of good value. I don't really know, as of now, whether the new pricing is. The Enterprise license is $48 per license per year now. That is a steep increase of $24, which is what it was when we first signed up."
"I have been involved with many password managers. Passportal, Secret Server, CyberArk, and BeyondTrust. I chose LastPass for our organization because of the pricing. The organization didn't want to implement something really expensive. LastPass, for what it's offering, for the price that it's offering the service, is unbeatable."
"It would be nice to do a quarterly true-up process with them versus having to buy 50 licenses at a time when we realize we're out, then we have to buy more. So far, they have been nice about letting us exceed our allotment and just letting us true-up on our own, but a more robust quarterly true-up process would be good."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
