Very convenient MFA system

  • January 06, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Okta can verify all of my apps within one system by rapidly challenging my cell phone. I like that I can approve the challenge directly from the home screen.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that with the latest iOS update, the approval from the home screen requires one more click and the "approve" button actually moves as it loads. Perhaps this is a glitch, but it starts more than halfway down the screen and as I go to click it, it moves to the top third of the home screen. Gets me every time!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are securely managing multiple applications with Okta's multi-factor authentication. It allows us to move between secure applications without extra passwords rapidly, and it will remember you for 8 hours.

Okta Review

What do you like best about the product?
I like Okta which displays all approved software on the dashboard. I also enjoy Okta verify that comes with Okta
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like it when Okta Verify sends do not challenge for the next 7 days, and this rarely happens but we have a lot of users changing their credential within that 7 day period causing Okta to not start a new session and still insisted using the old credential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Okta everyday to help reset MFA when users have new phones

  • January 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Having access to all our application from a single portal .
Multiple authentication methods
Single sign-on eliminating the need to remember passwords to all the applications
Reporting feature is quite comprehensive
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a bit overpriced as compared to other solutions.
Sometimes it takes multiple attempts to log in and it takes a long time to refresh
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta SSO is used across our entire organization as a two factor authentication method to ensure security and prevent unauthorized access. Our experience with Okta has been smooth and it has ensured tight security across the enterprise. It makes accessing all application easy from a single portal without having to login to different services. It has also made onboarding new hires easy and streamlined. It has a pretty intuitive UI making it easy to navigate through.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can have all the sites and apps you use in one place, they are also secure which means that your information is safe and taken care of. signing in with one log-in for all your apps saves you time and effort to open them all in different windows. This keeps my tabs organized and also my virtual workspace clean. It is safe and also easy to add new apps. It has provided that extra layer of security to all my apps and its functionality has increased, apps work greatly, and it is cool to have all your apps secure in one single app.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not very customizable which is not a major letdown but this is something that can be improved. Sometimes it gets frozen but not all the time but it can take some time to respond. Creating lists is not that user-friendly but it works fine not a major complaint. Mobile App does not work as smooth as the web app but not a huge letdown. Still one of the major gripes is if you are not the admin and you lose your password, there is no way to get a response right away.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing apps, security issues, app finding issues but mostly security since it requires a login and own password plus an authentication to log in, this keeps our credentials and information we use to work secure and safe and also in one place and this is extremely helpful to find the many apps we use to work with just a single click.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is super safe and secure, organized and very helpful to keep all your apps in one place, it is very user-friendly, with a single log-in you have access to every useful app, keep in mind that the mobile app is not as smooth as the desktop app but it still works fine and does it jobs very well.

Secure and Happy!

  • December 28, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This has been the first single sign-on software I have easily implemented in my own work life. Some simple instructions from the IT team and I was up and running and haven't had any problems since. We also integrated with Beyond Identity, which has made it even easier and more secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only annoying part is when I don't have my phone in the same room so I can't access the Okta Verify app easily. I have to go find my phone to log in to my email.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A secure single-sign-on software that is easy to use for a large corporation. It's been implemented company-wide and we see very few complaints or issues.

  • December 15, 2021

There are multiple features that I like about OKTA. UI is clean, and it has two-factor authentication. Also, you can use OKTA authenticator on your phone, which supports both Pushes notifications and codes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using the OKTA application for more than four years till now I haven't noticed any problem till now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used a few applications every time I should remember to log in to the portals like time and absence, payroll. After implementing Workday, our IT department configured OKTA as SSO made my life easier.

Easy verification when logging into corporate system

  • December 14, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The login process is straightforward when I turn on the "auto-send push" option and have the app installed on my phone. I can long-press on the notification I receive and approve the login without leaving my lock screen. It saves me time and always works flawlessly!
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't had any issues using Okta up until this point. It has always worked for my use cases. Over the last few years of using Okta I've only had to physically open the app to approve a log in a few times, and that's usually after I change my corporate password.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Okta to verify my access to our corporate intranet through 2-factor authentication. It reduces the time it takes to access our systems and begins my workday earlier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Install the app on your phone and enable the auto-push feature. This will send the push notification for approval to your phone as soon as you enter your credentials and allow you to log in much faster

API that connects all technology with users for easy management
What do you dislike about the product?
There are frequent requests to verify between platforms, which gets to be a bit much for users who like to work between multiple tabs.

My devices and platforms know me through the API. I also like that the product is scalable.
