Simple for the entire organization
What do you like best about the product?
I want to start off by saying I am not in IT. I cannot speak to how easy Okta is to implement or to add apps. But, from a person who uses Okta every day, I really enjoy it. Like any SAML/SSO company, I love how Okta stores your login information for your company applications and websites. You log in to Okta, and then you don't need to sign in to any other website (as long as it's added to Okta). This definitely helps with the security and assigning users to the right applications.
The Google Chrome extension is fantastic. I can click the Okta icon on the top-right in Chrome and quickly see all my assigned apps. Click one, and I automatically go to the site and I'm logged in. It makes it so I don't have to bookmark all of our organization's sites.

What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure if I have anything I truly dislike. Sometimes, I'll already be logged in and either Okta or my browser doesn't know that when I go to a different site and has me re-login. But, it's not a big deal.
Our organization has two-factor authentication turned on. This means that you enter your Okta password and then you must also authenticate with your phone. It's kind of a pain. However, I got an Apple Watch and seriously...it's almost worth spending the dumb $400 for an Apple Watch just for the Okta app on the watch. Instead of authenticating through your phone, you get a notification directly to your watch, click "Yep, it's me" and then you're signed in to Okta. Makes it so much faster. I wish the regular phone authentication was as fast. You have to unlock your phone, click on the Okta notification, give your face-id and then click "yes, it's me". It's a lot more steps.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta helps keep all our organization's apps in one place. It increases our security with one password and use of SSO/SAML for everything else. Assigning new apps to new hires is easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'm not really the expert for other SAML/SSO providers, but I'm pretty sure Okta has a free account you can use to try it out. I did some testing for creating an app in Okta and it was pretty easy (and I literally do not have any background in IT). I was able to find information online to create a Help Center article about how to connect Lucidpress with Okta and it wasn't too bad.
Convenient way to keep your accounts protected!
What do you like best about the product?
Okta makes it easy to maintain distinct passwords for every account I have, but access them through a single Okta log-in, using 2-Factor Authentication. Furthermore, I am able to change just one Okta password and it automatically reconfigures the log in for all my Okta apps/tiles, like magic!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there are issues syncing between Google Chrome and Okta, when it comes to my Google Account. Google Chrome will show I'm signed in for one of my Gmail accounts, but Okta isn't synced with it, which gives me an error. It might just be a problem with how my company has configured it, or a problem with how it's integrated with Google Chrome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We might use it for more purposes than the ones I checked that I just don't know about, as I'm not an Okta administrator.

What do you like best about the product?
I like this program really because I can give security and comfort to my customers with my products and services thanks to this platform, and thanks to all the details I have in it it, it can be located in a cloud that allows me access from everywhere, following a brief authentication and without decreasing the security levels provided to me by Okta. In fact, this technology has easily adapted to many of our business needs, enabling us to combine this with other systems, making this a robust system, and I avoid blocking other programs by inserting multiple incorrect passwords while trying to save new passwords.
What do you dislike about the product?
In fact, I don't like anything about this program, because it was very effective in our company and we had no trouble using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta has saved our company's workers much time, as it took time to ask the agency responsible for assistance to submit a number of applications before the outstanding system was implemented. Okra has made the company more productive as it can now perform different tasks easily, and our team deals with it more relaxed, lower stress levels and create an outstanding workspace for all. In fact, it has managed to work in large scope, increase performance and promote the growth of the company. The program protects important information on the company with sound protection.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Okta, without a doubt, as it offers the most assistance and saves you time and money. It is a big, multifaceted structure that serves large and small businesses alike.
Manage access to apps among your employees.
What do you like best about the product?
The greatest aspect about Okta is that all applications the staff will use are conveniently viewed. Administrators also have the choice to restrict the exposure to applications, thus ensuring only the most appropriate devices for your employees. Login to Okta with Google Authenticator is a swift and uncomplicated process and guarantees that accounts always remain safe.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any grievances about Okta, but I only have positive interactions with its functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta enables my organization to integrate all its apps in just one location. Users don't have to go looking for this application every now and then in the cluttered laptop. Okta is incredibly intuitive and easy and offers a safety check to protect its customers against undesirable intrusion. Okta is the first website which I open each morning and which helps me to plan my day easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please look at the list of programs to be accessed and consider automating supply. If so, look at the solutions on the basis of the device in the list of applications available today.
Works great!
What do you like best about the product?
Not having to remember passwords, also not having a huge "notes" sheet in my phone to reference.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes passwords get over saved with the wrong one and I have to ping my admin. A minor inconvenience, probably user error on my part.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security, compliance, SSL, ability to work more efficiently. Tons.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't look back, GET IT.
Forget the days when you have to access different websites by typing URLs and remembering passwords
What do you like best about the product?
Okta has created a wonderful platform to access all the applications you want your employees to use with single sign-on. New employees log in for the first time and immediately have dozens of applications available to them.
It has a great chrome extension that gives you access to your links from your toolbar. The smartphone app, Okta Verify, is fast and works well. I can access all my applications with just one app on my phone from anywhere in the world.

What do you dislike about the product?
It keeps on asking me to save the credentials even when I click on "Not for this app". God forbid if I have to go on the same website the same day, it will again ask the same which can be irritating sometimes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Single sign-on for all the applications which saves a lot of time and we don't have to remember the passwords.
