What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its helps to manage all applications at one place
Empowering seamless access with single sign-on integration and robust authentication
What is our primary use case?
One of the majorly used use cases for Okta Workforce Identity is the assignment of different SaaS applications, which are cloud-based, and using them with single sign-on. Users don't have to remember the password for each and every online cloud-based application. They just need to sign in with one email and password. This is one of the major benefits of using Okta Workforce Identity.
What is most valuable?
One of the best features of Okta Workforce Identity is its integration with different SaaS applications, which makes it a better product than the competitors.
The multi-factor authentication feature in Okta Workforce Identity is very good. It has its own verification app as well. It is very good in authentication, and we can use hardware keys, software keys, or any authenticator, majorly known authenticator app, for multi-factor authentication.
The provisioning and deprovisioning features of Okta Workforce Identity are very good. We can automate them as well, and we can provision users, groups, applications, and provision tools based on specific groups as well. The product is very good in that as well.
What needs improvement?
I believe that if we integrate the workflows section into the main Okta Workforce Identity dashboard, it can be very useful.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Okta Workforce Identity for about 4 to 5 years now.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
In terms of the initial setup and deployment, I find it to be very easy. We have to set it up for the first time, and it has a very straightforward implementation. We have the pictorial and video guides on the Okta Workforce Identity websites on how to deploy it, how to set up employees, how to provision them, how to create groups, and how to set up devices. Each and everything is documented, and it's pretty much straightforward to use.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Okta Workforce Identity is a stable product. We had an issue with the Okta Workforce Identity dashboard once in 2023 when we had an outage, but it recovered in a few minutes.
How are customer service and support?
We have never felt the need to contact the Okta Workforce Identity support team. It has been up and running. We had an issue with the Okta Workforce Identity dashboard once in 2023 when we had an outage, but it recovered in a few minutes.

Great Auth and dashboard with OKTA

Some times is glitchy! yet is ok
What do you like best about the product?
It keeps everyting in one place, support is helpful when ever I have needed them. I use Okta many times throught the day because that is where my company info recides. I do like the features it offers. When it comes to the phone app as well as the desktop version. The ease of implementation was very good and when my company put it all together for us we like it. All and all we like it, it makes it very easy to find all our apps in one place and access all at one time throughout the day. Instead of looking and logign in to a differ app on the side every time (We have 7 app we log into every day at work) keeping it all in one place and secure makes a huge difference!

The part that I don' like is that many times when I want to log into my dashboard I have to have a code and the code some times doesn't work as well the timeing is off form time to time and I have to do it a ocuple of times. Othar than that it is ok.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having it all in one place specially with 7 different aplications we have to use throught the day, having it all in one place, secure, safe and easy. Just log in one time and then the rest is easy. Saves time, hep us to just have to log ing onto one place and not many places.
