One of the best complete SSO solution for organizations
What do you like best about the product?
Here are some things which I like about Okta -
- I don't have to set different passwords for different applications fo the same organization.
- If I login once, I don't need to enter the password again for the next 24 hours. I just login at the start of the day and I am good to go for the rest for the day.
- With the help of the homepage, I can see all the listed apps that I have access to. I don't need to save any URLs.
- It gives an option in my phone to approve login via fingerprint so I dont need to enter PIN or anything, a fingerprint is sufficient.
- Almost no downtime. In my experience with Okta for 2 years and 5 months, I never experienced a down time.

What do you dislike about the product?
Here are some things which I do not like about Okta -
- No option to approve sign-in in phone via front camera. (Not every android phone has a fingerprint)
- The process of adding a new phone to approve/reject sign in is very painful. I had to contact my technical support for the same. (I was locked out during the weekend when I switched to a new phone).
- Dark mode is not there for the website. Hope it gets added soon.
- A frequently visited option is missing. I would like all the most used apps at the top.
- A most recently visited option is also missing. I would like all the most used apps at the top. Or a combination of frquently visited + recently visited.

I am a software engineer by profession and an employee.
From an employee side of things, I do see myself benefited from this app in terms of not remembering multiple passwords, signing in only once a day, see all applications at a single place, option to approve/reject sign ins.
'From a administrator point of view, I can imagine that for employers this app is solving their security and authentication needs. Making sure that only auhorised people are allowed to access company software resources.
