Secure remote access has strengthened our VPN and RDP authentication against phishing
Reviewed on Jun 01, 2026
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
Our current main use cases for Cisco Duo at our company are for VPN and Microsoft RDP.
Cisco Duo plays a significant part in our VPN access because it implements with ICE and gives us an extra layer of security. To access our network, we use ICE incorporated with Cisco Duo and an NPS server, and that connection is how we access our network. The extra step provides an additional layer of security along with Active Directory.
We had ICE, and Cisco Duo implemented with that very well, so that played a part in what we chose. We run pretty much full Cisco security products.
Our company is small, so when we first started, we purchased more licenses than we probably needed. Cisco Duo scaled well based on our setup and the number of licenses we had.
I think there is a broader scope for Cisco Duo, but we haven't actually explored it. We just started implementing the RDP, the Microsoft RDP, where you basically have MFA for your server. I think there are many different things that they have to offer, but I haven't gotten to digging deeper into it.
What is most valuable?
I would say I appreciate the VPN access for the VPN portion because it's fairly easy to use and it gives our users direction on how to actually use it. If Cisco Duo were removed today, I think there would be a big learning curve for our end users, just having to incorporate a new system to learn. I think that would be the biggest thing for us.
We have been implementing many different things to become more resistant to phishing attacks, and Cisco Duo has contributed to that effort as an extra step of security that has really helped there.
I think social engineering is a big concern, but having that extra step for our end users to go through just makes it easier on me and our end users to prevent that.
Cisco Duo has given us an extra layer of security. I know that many companies see attempts to access their VPNs, and Cisco Duo will provide that extra layer of security and stop some attacks.
I would say Cisco Duo improved our authentication with that extra layer of security and the usability for our end users.
I think the biggest return on investment when using Cisco Duo is having the extra layer of security. Having our end users go through a second step has been great.
What needs improvement?
I'm not entirely certain about areas for improvement. When we met our rep last week, they showed us a whole bunch of different things that I didn't know we had access to.
I think there is a broader scope for Cisco Duo, but we haven't actually explored it.
For how long have I used the solution?
I'm fairly certain we've had Cisco Duo since we started, so I can't say what the timeframe was.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
We haven't experienced any downtime with Cisco Duo. It has been reliable for us.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Our company is small, so when we first started, we purchased more licenses than we probably needed. Cisco Duo scaled well based on our setup and the number of licenses we had.
How are customer service and support?
I think the customer service of Cisco Duo has been very good. We have a rep, and we met with him last week. I feel they are very up to date and keep us informed on new products coming along.
I would rank Cisco Duo's customer support and technical service as a 10 because anytime we've had an issue, they've been quick to respond. Cisco TAC has been very good to us.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I don't think we considered other solutions other than Cisco Duo at our company. Our IT manager helped me pick this, so since we were already leaning towards Cisco, it just made sense to go with Cisco.
How was the initial setup?
The deployment process of Cisco Duo was very good. We set up a server for it, and they helped us walk through the setup. We had a proxy for it, and we configured it that way. They held our hand through the whole process.
What about the implementation team?
The setup was fairly good. We had someone from Cisco Duo help us set it up, which was very nice. They held our hand through the whole process.
What was our ROI?
I think the biggest return on investment when using Cisco Duo is having the extra layer of security. Having our end users go through a second step has been great.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost of Cisco Duo has been fairly good. The setup was fairly good as well. It was a pretty easy setup, and it's been smooth since we set it up.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
No other alternate solutions were considered.
What other advice do I have?
I would rank Cisco Duo as a 10 because we haven't had any issues with it. It's worked well for us. It's fairly easy to use, and our end users appreciate it.
I would recommend Cisco Duo personally, based on my experience and seeing the things it can do with the implementations that you can make with it. I would recommend it for sure. My overall rating for Cisco Duo is 10.
