Easy Setup and Powerful No-Code Onboarding Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to set=up and configure, it works really well when you want to standardise onboarding especially when users are spread around locations, it can be used as a an automation platform using pre existing connectors to automate tasks such as new employee/user creation and subsequent administration tasks. The automation can be built via visual UI drag and drop feature hence no need to involve IT or tech users. We started with a basic plan, it can then grow per number of users later on as numbers of sits or requirements grow.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can hit the workflow or seat limits pretty quickly, especially if you’re a heavy user and rely on it for more than just password management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Credential management for many users in different geo-locations, solving 2FA code generation, and onboarding automation
Reliable and Secure Access Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like using Okta as the entry point to access all of our systems and for multifactor authentication. It helps solve security issues and alleviates the hassle of managing many different passwords, allowing us to use just one. The app allows us to log in on either a phone or computer, which is very convenient. Everything seems to work just fine, from the initial setup with Okta's assistance to several years later. We don't have very many issues at all, and when we do, support is pretty quick. It's almost set it and forget it. I appreciate having it integrated with all our platforms, which means when we add a user, they automatically get pushed to all platforms, making things streamlined. The Okta implementation team helped us make decisions and get everything set up in about a week, which was great.

The Single Sign-On (SSO) experience feels seamless, letting users access all their apps with one login, which improves both security and convenience. I also appreciate the strong multi-factor authentication (MFA) options, which add an extra layer of protection without making things overly complicated for end users.

Effortless Security and Easy Access with Okta
What do you like best about the product?
I use Okta to keep all of my work apps in one place, and I like Okta's sign-on feature for those apps. It lets me enter my password once, do the two-factor authentication, and get access to all my apps without re-entering my details every time. I appreciate the ability to sign in to several apps at once and the second level of security it provides. I find Okta very easy to use and user-friendly, and I haven't really had any bugs or problems from a tech point of view. I value the single sign-on and the main page where all the apps are located. The initial setup was extremely easy.
