Easy way to log in
What do you like best about the product?
Don’t have to remember all your passwords because it’s stored in okta
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you get booted off and need to use your phone to log in again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security and password storage
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Store passwords
Seamless multi-factor single sign-on
What do you like best about the product?
Too often, single sign-on solutions are burdensome for end users, as is a requirement for multi-factor authentication. Okta has made this seamless; log in anywhere and get an immediate push notification to your smartphone or, even better, your Apple Watch.
What do you dislike about the product?
The rollout has been slow—or at least, slower than I would have anticipated. A number of our SaaS solutions are compatible with Okta out of the box; others require more work. That said, Okta is becoming the clear leader, so this will become easier over time as more integrations are provided.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provisioning and de-provisioning users in a single place, enabling single sign-on with multi-factor authentication across a wide variety of SaaS applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Switch applications to enforce authentication via Okta one by one, starting with the one application no user in your organization can live without—since this will ensure that everyone is registered.

What do you like best about the product?
If employees are not tech savvy, Okta allows for ease of use
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit trivial, but a 16 character password is required for our company. Not sure if that's internally required or an Okta requirement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A secure hub to access all of our business software
So convenient
What do you like best about the product?
I love having everything in one place!!!
What do you dislike about the product?
When I asks me to change my password and gives me a difficult suggestion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Only needing one password
Passwords and security all in one
What do you like best about the product?
Holy moly, remembering passwords is the worst. Not only do I not have to remember every.single.password for my work logins, but there's the added benefit of accessing everything when I'm not on my work computer, too. Adding/ requesting access to new products is also really easy! I can search all the products/software available, then request an account for a new app when I need it. By searching which products we already have as a company, I don't have to research new solutions or unnecessarily purchase new products.
What do you dislike about the product?
Okta often acts like a required portal for me to access certain apps and products. For example, every time I want to open Dropbox, I must return to the Okta page. Even when I first go to Dropbox, it sends me back to my company Okta page anyway. Also for some of the apps, there seems to be a required plugin (which seems totally old-fashioned) and without the plugin, it takes longer to log-in. I like the centralization that Okta provides, so forcing people to open the product first makes sense, even if it is an extra step every time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time saving! I don't remember the last time I had to do a password reset for a work login. It's so nice to know I just open up one tab, and click on any app/product to open it up. It also saves time on requesting access to new software because it's built into Okta, and relays the message to IT.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Our company uses Okta for single sign-on SSO, but it seems like Okta offers much more than that. I recommend using all the functionality because Okta already integrates with so many apps and products, it would help with centralization.
Seamless to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Okta easily integrated into all our systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far. Been using it for over a year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
User identity and password management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The chrome extension is pretty useful.
Single sign on made easy!
What do you like best about the product?
Plain simple and easy to use. The interface is easy on the eyes and the apps are laid out nicely.
What do you dislike about the product?
The mobile often makes you enter the user id even though you have already signed in and opted to save the id
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not having to remember multiple passwords..we have rigorous password policies which Okta help with
Works great!
What do you like best about the product?
Works fast and makes me feel my info is secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not a fan of how much I have to log in. I understand this is likely for security purposes, but I wish there was a simpler way. Just adds smaller extra steps throughout each day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have experienced no business problems so far, and the benefits are simply that it works and it doesn't annoy me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it.
