Our main use cases for Cisco Duo are that we use it for all MFA with ISE for all of our service provider devices, all the servers, and related equipment.

Duo with ISE features benefit my company by making logins more secure and simpler. Everything is in one box, so we don't have multiple servers or multiple account on those servers for different device types.

The feature of Cisco Duo that I prefer the most is centralized authentication for both TACACS and RADIUS.

My ability to decrease time while using Cisco Duo varies. We don't change up people frequently, but one person would take me up to an hour out of my day to onboard or offboard. If we onboard 10 people I could spend my entire day giving access.

Possible an integration with ISE where the DUIO proxy and DUO configuration can be done on ISE instead of separate portals.

I have been using Cisco Duo for five years now.

Regarding the stability and reliability of the platform, there have been issues. Cisco Duo has their issues, and they are effective about notifications saying they're having login issues or push notification issues; none of it has really affected me. They have backups, and I haven't noticed any issues with them.

Regarding its scalability, I haven't hit any limits yet, and I've got 1,000 users in there with no issues. I just go to my sales partner and request more licenses, and that's it. Since it's a cloud solution, I don't have to worry about it.

I never had a chance to experience anything with their customer service and technical support bsince I never had to reach out to them for anything.

We did not use or consider other solutions that do the same that Cisco Duo does. We went straight to Duo since we used it in conjunction with ISE.

The deployment of Cisco Duo is very simple. It's not hard at all. You just point your device to it, go into the portal and register, and you're done. There's nothing complex about it.

For me, the biggest return on investment when using Cisco Duo is my time. With multiple servers and different types of servers, if someone is onboarded or offboarded or they forget their password, I would have to change it in ten different places or more. Now I don't have to do that; I just do it in one place, and I'm done, so that helps.

My experience with the pricing, the setup costs, and the licensing of the solution is that it's cheap compared to running multiple other servers to do the same job.

There aren't any new features or functionalities in Cisco Duo that my company has started using recently; we use it primarily for the authentication portion. There are other features we can use, yet we haven't turned those options on yet, so that's more a matter of time than anything.

We have many different vendors and types of devices that we require MFA for login. That said, Duo helps bring all of those accounts into one system, in conjunction with ISE, you have one username, one password, and you access all the devices instead of having every device have its own credentials. It lowers the number of passwords you need to have.

Cisco Duo is on the right track for improvement. A lot of their devices already integrate with it now. They keep adding features for more devices that interact natively with it, instead of having to have a third-party server to reach out to Duo.

I would rate Cisco Duo overall about an eight out of ten; it's a strong product.

The main use case for Cisco Duo is authentication.

I appreciate the mobile authentication feature of Cisco Duo; it's quite good. The features of Cisco Duo have benefited my organization because it's secure, provides a way of accessing the workspace, and it's easy to operate from mobile.

My experience with Cisco Duo's strong security authentication system has been easy; logging in is straightforward.

I do not think about how Cisco Duo can be improved right now, including additional features or enhancements.

I have been using Cisco Duo for about six months.

I would assess the stability and reliability of Cisco Duo as pretty stable.

Cisco Duo scales with the growing needs of my organization; we haven't seen any complexity or issues so far.

I evaluate customer service and technical support as quite good.

Before adopting Cisco Duo, I was using a homegrown solution to address similar needs. I transitioned from our homegrown solution to Cisco Duo because it's Cisco; we've been using Cisco products for some time.

I have definitely seen ROI by using Cisco Duo because we used to have our own homegrown solution, and this is far better than that.

My experience with pricing, setup, costs, and licensing is that I do not get into pricing much; I leave it to procurement, but I think it's very competitive.

We use other Cisco products such as firewalls, and I find them competitively positioned, although I need to watch out for companies such as Palo Alto, as prices vary across different companies.

I have not considered any specific products to use instead of Cisco Duo.

We have a few employees using the traditional way of accessing and securing, which had some challenges; before the solution, people put a lot of effort in, and that's one advantage we have using Cisco Duo.

The flexibility and integration of Cisco Duo were a big advantage when selecting it over other solutions, and specifically, we can introduce user-level security for specific databases.

My experience with performance, cost, support, and scalability is that performance is quite good, and I do not see any issues with scalability. My experience with deploying Cisco Duo is positive; we got good support from Cisco. I would definitely recommend it to other organizations considering Cisco Duo.

I would rate Cisco Duo overall a nine.

Cisco Duo started primarily for compliance reasons but has evolved to address brute force attacks, and terminal servers and computer sign-ins, depending on the client.

The most appealing feature of Cisco Duo is the phone notification system that simply pops up on your phone. This has proven particularly beneficial for older users who historically struggled with other MFA solutions. Cisco Duo benefits the organization by fundamentally enhancing security.

It is easy to use when logging in, but at times, there's a delay in getting the pop-up on a phone, requiring users to occasionally retry authentication depending on backend services. I guess that depends on the backend or something like that. It doesn't happen all the time. Cisco Duo could be improved by making it faster.

Maintaining ease of use while increasing security remains crucial. What used to be sufficient with just a password is no longer adequate, and even a phone pop-up might not be enough in the future.

I have been using Cisco Duo for three years.

Most of the time, Cisco Duo's stability and reliability are fine, but occasional issues occur. Intermittent downtime happens infrequently, but when it does, many users call because they cannot access their systems.

Cisco Duo scales effectively with the growing needs of the organization. The expansion of Cisco Duo's usage was smooth, and we continued using it because of its good performance.

The customer service and technical support have been good, having used them twice. I would rate it an eight out of ten. It has been pretty good.

I was not using another solution prior to using Cisco Duo.

Deploying Cisco Duo is easy. For example, we have automated setting up the terminal servers, where as soon as we make a new user, we make sure we put their email address in, and then it automatically sends them an email. They put in their information and pretty much set up the phone on their own. 95% of the people are able to do it without anyone even talking to them.

We have not seen an ROI with Cisco Duo as it is primarily used for security.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing has been good, with no issues. I am pleased that the prices remained stable after Cisco acquired the solution.

We experimented with Microsoft's MFA, which only works with Microsoft products. Cisco Duo proved more flexible. Flexibility emerged as one of the key positives during the evaluation process of Cisco Duo.

Cisco Duo is easy to use. Setting it up is a breeze. So far, support is reachable. Hopefully, that doesn't change. On rare occasions or once in a while, it gets slow.

My advice to other organizations considering Cisco Duo is to implement it. It is easy to deploy, and the company currently has 30 clients using it. The entire onboarding process takes less than a week, though end-user adoption may extend this timeline.

I would rate Cisco Duo an eight out of ten.

The main use cases for Cisco Duo are for multi-factor authentication and being able to bring your own devices securely.

We don't use Cisco Duo in our organization. We sell the product to our customers.

It is very easy. Having just wrapped up my tenure at Cisco, it was used day in and day out for security. It was always easy to log in and not have to worry about logging in multiple times.

As a former employee, I think it's top-notch when it comes to protecting internal and external threats and preventing unauthorized access to the network.

Cisco Duo could be improved, possibly by adding features for the healthcare space. If you're selling something to a healthcare provider, there needs to be consideration for how to launch Cisco Duo with a handheld device that is not native, where you can install the application.

We have been working with Cisco Duo for at least four or five years.

I would rate their technical support a seven out of ten based on how they respond to issues.

There is certainly ROI with Cisco Duo, assuming that you can get the other MFA type products uninstalled, and customers truly understand why they purchased Cisco Duo in the first place.

From a reseller perspective, it's still challenging to explain the whole license strategy to a client, so we really have to be ahead of that for all the true forward conversations.

We did not consider many other solutions before Cisco Duo. I am biased towards Cisco because I came from Cisco, so I am more familiar with it.

The benefit of having a complete passwordless environment is more of a conversation that we have with our clients. There is ease of use. We focus on what outcomes they are trying to achieve with the different personas they're using and the security protection in their workplace. There aren't any disadvantages to the passwordless environment, but it all boils down to what our customers are saying about the product that we sell to them. I haven't heard anything negative about Cisco Duo.

I would rate Cisco Duo overall an eight out of ten.
