Okta Platform serves as a single sign-on tool in our daily operations. We use Okta Platform because we have access to numerous applications, and it is impractical to add all websites to a favorites bar or remember all the passwords for these applications, tools, and websites. We have configured Okta Platform for every person, allowing them to connect to the tools and applications through single sign-on.

Transferring the mobile app and all profiles to a new device can be a bit of a headache, but it sort of has to be to maintain security, so I don't fault it for that.

Seamless Identity Verification and Effortless Staff Adoption
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use by staff after implementation, usually works seamlessly in the identity verification process, not causing any lag in login access time
What do you dislike about the product?
Specialized features quickly drive up the price of implementation for organizations with very large user bases and okta comes off more expensive than a lot of competitors in that regard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplification of the identity management process in the organization especially across multiple SaaS platforms all interconnected for use
Streamlines Access with Seamless Provisioning
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can use SCIM provisioning with Okta, as it enables a faster onboarding/offboarding process. It makes it easier to onboard and offboard users across multiple applications without having to click through each one for removal. The ability to upload key features of a user's profile, such as department and role, into whatever application they need to be onboarded into or off from is also really useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Definitely, how we upload that information, I think that is a larger conversation, however, just so that way we can, gather more information from, where we get our, informations from our HRIS system. So that way, we're able to, upload more detailed, information when it comes to a user's overall profile, such as region, location, things of that nature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Okta to streamline the login process, allowing users to use a single set of credentials for multiple apps. Scheme provisioning enables faster operations, letting us onboard and offboard users efficiently without manually handling each application.
Secure Access with Some Troubleshooting Hurdles

What do you dislike about the product?
I find the troubleshooting steps tedious when I'm unable to access Okta, and it doesn't allow secondary login options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Okta for accessing work applications easily and securely. It helps solve security issues for sensitive work information and reduces risks in day-to-day operations.
Secure and Comprehensive, But Setup Can Be Complex
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how Okta balances strong security with ease of use. The single sign-on experience is smooth for end users, and features like multi-factor authentication and adaptive security policies give me confidence that access is well protected. I also appreciate Okta's reliability and its wide range of integrations with cloud and enterprise applications. Its user lifecycle management makes onboarding and offboarding straightforward, which saves time for IT teams and helps maintain consistent access control as the organization grows.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Okta is very strong overall, there are a few areas that could be improved. The initial setup and configuration can be complex, especially for advanced use cases, and often require experienced administrators to get everything right. Cost is another consideration as the licensing and add-on features can become expensive as our operational skills. Additionally, troubleshooting authentication or integration issues isn't always straightforward, and clearer, more centralized logging and error messages would make issue resolution easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta simplifies managing user identities and access across applications securely, centralizing logins with single sign-on. It strengthens security with multi-factor authentication, reducing IT overhead. It also streamlines user provisioning and deprovisioning, preventing unauthorized access, and improves the login experience.

What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features Okta Platform offers are the ease of use and the ease of access.
The ease of use comes from the very user-friendly interface, which allows us to select the application we need to sign on to easily. The ease of access stands out because it can be accessed through one link only.
Okta Platform has positively impacted our organization because our staff can connect to all tools and applications we use from a single location, which has saved us time.
When we have a new joiner who does not know the links for our tools or applications, they spend time asking other users and may engage in lengthy conversations. Because of that, we advise the new joiner to sign in to Okta Platform, and they will find all the applications and tools they need.
What needs improvement?
Okta Platform can be improved by enhancing the mobile application because sometimes it has issues. Specifically, sometimes the OTP is not received for the mobile application.

I have used Okta Platform for approximately one and a half years.
