Unmatched security at incredibly reasonable prices

  • August 03, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
DUO offers us 2FA security without the considerable costs normally associated with 2FA. Rather than having to run our own 2FA server at significant costs and maintenance requirements, we are able to have a simple deployment for our users and get the security we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using DUO for years now and haven't had any issues to date, I'm truly a happy customer when it comes to DUO.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We discovered DUO soon after our company was hit by a sever cryptolock attack. This was due to a user using unsecure and repeated passwords. Adding the 2FA layer from DUO solved the issue of allowing someone to remotely access a system, even if they were able to determine a password from brute force, phishing or other social engineering based attacks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
DUO is an industry leader when it comes to network security. They are currently being acquired by Cisco, another industry leader in this realm. I can confidently recommend DUO to small and large business who take security seriously.

A necessary nuisance

  • July 30, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that my accounts are secured with two-factor authentication. Having an app for users is also very helpful. I have heard that there is also a plug-in for your computer, making logins much easier and efficient, but unfortunately my company has disabled the use of them for unknown reasons.
What do you dislike about the product?
Logging into my school's website every day using Duo has been a frustration. Each and every time I have to log in, I am redirected to my phone, wherever that may be at the time, and asked to confirm the login. This has been a frustrating experience as well as a massive time sink. A "remember me for a week" function would be helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As of now, no perceived business problems have been solved, but I realize that having a more secure login is only to my benefit and is a dramatic upgrade from previously utilized systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
make sure your institution or business has enabled use of the plug-in key, and setup fingerprint two factor if your device allows

Easy to Use Security Tool

  • July 30, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's so simple to get users signed up with Duo and the configuration steps are so simple, making it foolproof.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we have issues where users don't always get the notification they have something awaiting their approval or it requests the approval more than once.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This allows us to troubleshoot remote connectivity issues based on if they're reaching the point in the process where Duo is being notified of a login attempt. This makes my job easier to see where the steps are failing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a seamless integration that works on various platforms with a consistent design for ease of use among all users.

best all in one SSO/2FA product i have seen so far

  • July 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As an admin, this is super simple to install, configure and be up and running in no time.
What do you dislike about the product?
That the trial version is only 30 days. You cant really get a true feel for a product in your environment in such a short time. the 30 days includes weekends, so in reality you may only truly get more like 20 days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
secured dual authentication and SSO for the various cloud services we use in house.

Very secure

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Since duo is accessible from your mobile phone, it is very convenient and fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing i dont like about the duo security is that when you are logging in it takes an extra step, however that assures no one else can access my information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefits are solely security benefits, no one can get access to my work information or my emails with out having access to my duo and i get an alert every time i need a duo login.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Duo is very user friendly and I feel like it a very good way to insure that your stuff is secure

Decent

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to get the push notifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn’t always call the person. You should use the push notifications if possible. The calls are not reliable. This is the only issue we experience the most. We are still trying to figure out why.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are making sure the correct person is logging on to our VPN and using our information. This has kept viruses and threats to a minimum.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Set up push notifications for whoever you can. They are most reliable.

Nothing really. Everything about it works as i expect nd i have no issues.

Duo Authentication for Windows Remote desktop Authentication

  • May 30, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Best Part about the duo is their documentation regarding how to operate its functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support needs to be quick. There is no 24*7 support team available for a quick call if we needs urgent help from them.
We need to sent an email to them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For our Server MFA, we are using duo.
We can restrict the authentication to specified persons only and we can help the environment from intruders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This Product is useful to your environment if you considering about MFA.
