Smooth, Reliable SSO with Flexible Authentication Options
What do you like best about the product?
I like how smooth is the single sign on, it is not flaky at all like other tools. Also I like how it has different options to authenticate like password, verify application and the new feature that allows you to identify with biomtrics from the mac
What do you dislike about the product?
On the mobile okta verify app, sometimes is tricky to accept the push notification on an iphone, having to swipe to accept the notification sometimes does not work as expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
allowing me to save time when I need to switch from one app to another without the need to log in again, or do verifications again.
Optimize UX and Strengthen Access Management
What do you like best about the product?
SSO integrations have been critical in optimizing UX and Okta has helped us ensure appropriate security and access management. I am not part of the cybersecurity/IT organization (I am Talent/Learning). I am easily able to understand and manage groups I am responsible for and only need additional help from high-level folks if there is a larger issue with birthright applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
When managing groups, it is way too easily to make changes to accidentally add too many. One of the options allows you to search, and my search results came up with ~300 (correct amount) and I clicked "Add All" - which ended up adding 20k people in our enterprise. Luckily there weren't any notifications or emails, but it took a significant amount of time for them all to be added, then I had to delete EVERYONE out of the group, and readd the 800 people (original 500+new 300). It was awful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is allowing our employees to have a singular landing page and eliminate multiple systems for them to log-in and try to manage their passwords. We have a mostly desk-less workforce, and if we want them to engage with the tools that we provide to them we have to make it easy. Okta makes this happen.

One place to remember to access multiple vendors.

Sometimes it's not easy to add new APP connection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Identity & Access Management: Okta
What do you like best about the product?
Okta is our centralized Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution, delivering a secure Single Sign-On (SSO) experience across our recruitment tools, including Greenhouse and Salesforce. It has noticeably streamlined our onboarding process by automating user provisioning, which cuts down on manual IT work and helps eliminate “password fatigue” for new hires. In addition, its adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) supports a high-security, Zero Trust approach, ensuring sensitive candidate data stays protected.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Okta is a market leader, its high per-user licensing costs and the complexity of managing custom integrations remain significant operational hurdles. As a centralized access point, it also creates a 'single point of failure' where any service disruption can result in a total loss of productivity across all linked platforms like Greenhouse and Salesforce. Additionally, the administrative interface requires specialized technical expertise, often leading to delays when troubleshooting sync issues between the ATS and the CRM.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta resolves the operational overhead of manual user management by providing a centralized Single Sign-On (SSO) platform for all recruitment tools. It eliminates 'password fatigue' for the team while securing candidate data through Adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) that triggers only during high-risk login attempts. By automating the provisioning and de-provisioning of accounts, Okta ensures that new hires have Day 1 access to Greenhouse and Salesforce, while instantly revoking access for offboarded employees to maintain total data integrity.
