What is our primary use case?

My primary use case is to access our company resources. I'm a solution architect and we are customers of Authenticator.

I use this solution on a daily basis and it's a very functional app. that adds an extra layer when it comes to securing the data owned by my company. It's quite easy to deploy. 

What needs improvement?

I'd like to see integration between applications and phones included in the solution. It would also be helpful to have support for the kind of integration you see between Facebook and Google, support with protocols from one application on the internet or SaaS to another one. I've seen several kinds of applications in the area of risky behavior that are a little better in other solutions.

I've been using this solution for a year.

I have previously used other products but Authenticator is included in the Microsoft license suite package so the decision to go with it was commercial. 

How was the initial setup?

The solution is connected with Intune in the cloud so implementation is very easy and took me less than five minutes. Everything is updated via Microsoft cloud delivery.

What other advice do I have?

I rate this solution eight out of 10.
