    Executive Office

Passwords and security all in one

  • April 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

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.

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

Not having to remember multiple passwords..we have rigorous password policies which Okta help with


    Computer Software

Easy to use and a necessity for fast access

  • April 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple to set up and makes it easy to access multiple applications. It can be a struggle to have to remember multiple passwords, I had resorted to insecurely storing passwords manually in a Notes application. Okta solves this problem by requiring only 1 password to know and is secure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all the applications at our company are accessible through Okta - so I still have to remember multiple passwords.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accessing applications needed to get work done is much easier. Less to worry about and less time wasted due to Single Sign On.


    Marketing and Advertising

Works great!

  • April 02, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

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.

Convenient... But also useless.

  • March 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One stop dashboard for several apps. The display is clean and intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Little more than fancy "favorites" bar. In fact, I don't use Okta for that reason because I simply use my favorites bar in Chrome
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to sign in once for multiple apps... At least in theory.

The problem, though, is that I don't need it or use it. I add the sites I need to my favorites bar and then save the login information in Google Chrome. None of my colleagues use it anymore either.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I suppose it can help with password management, but few people use it and no one seems to notice or care.

Time Saver

I've yet to find a feature which has not met my needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Removes the frustration of looking up passwords.

Misleading website for small business users.

What do you like best about the product?
Great tool and functionality. The interface is clean and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
$1500 / year minimum
Frustrating and condescending support team

Dashboard with SSO into the 10+ tools our team uses on a daily basis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you just need a dashboard and password management go to someone else.
