As easy as it gets.

What do you like best about the product?
Duo 2FA has been the best feature that we've implemented throughout the company. I can secure connections easily and with Duo Push we can manage end user access very easily. A company wide initiative is in the works, that will enforce 2FA for more of our day to day product usages. This will be made very simple through the use of Duo 2FA protection and as testing has shown, it should be spot on reliable to utilize.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't really much of anything I've found that I absolutely don't like. For the most part, the product is intuitive and simple to setup and maintain. One of the only complaints I have is that the portal can seem a little busy on the surface and somewhat difficult to navigate for the beginner. I've been using it long enough that I'm used to the work flow within the product but some of our new hires have found it to be a challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly 2FA for a multitude of protected systems. We have begun looking into expanding the MDM features for better administration of BYOD cellular devices. A move that we once attempted via another company but because of the requirements, failed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As always, configure everything carefully before implementation. The only thins we found was that we really needed more licenses to accommodate the growth we saw after initial implementation and also for the expanded protections applied for 2FA.

If I have to use it, at least it's the best to do the job

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
That it's fairly easy. I'm dislike that my school has switched to multi-factor authentication, however if we HAVE to use it, I prefer it to, say, Amazon, where you have to be texted.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that if I don't have my phone or passcode, I can't get in to websites I need. I also dislike that some sites require duo, but don't actually have the duo confirmation page come up (you have to use your phone or change the password to include the passcode).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Protecting valuable data on education as well as billing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need multi-factor authentication, this is the best possible product to do it.

Two-factor security for accessing protected information

  • April 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Our team's research utilizes protected information that only authorized users can access. Duo provides a simple mobile app synchronized with an online account that provides secure two-factor authentication. This method of secure authentication is reliable and fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Duo becomes tedious for employees if companies require all websites to use Duo. If a Duo sign-in is required at every log in (rather than once every 12 hours or 30 days, for example), it might hinder rather than help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensuring that employees are accessing protected information securely and safely is made easy with Duo.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Administrators should be sure that only those applications or websites containing protected information use Duo. Become familiar with and use the options allowing for an extending login time without having to go through Duo again. These two recommendations will save employees a lot of tedious trouble using Duo.

Easy two-factor authentification

  • March 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like the integration this security system offers with Apple and Android devices. Especially the Apple Watch. It is very easy to accept a push from your phone when you want to get into a secured system quickly. I also like that sometimes you can use a code produced from the app to get into a secured system.

The home page is also very easy to use and navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I have to go into the app to actually make the push alert appear. Also, you have to unlock your phone to accept the push or it won't work. Also, if you don't have your phone with you, you have to have the password to get into your systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using this product to keep a firewall between the outside world and our sensitive property. It is a good way to separate what is not a secure system and what is. A benefit we have realized is that we are able to use this 2 factor security system really seamlessly with our password management product. It makes it really simple and easy to get into Duo in other ways beyond the simple push option.

Best Security app for login

  • March 17, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about this software is that we can not login to our work station unless we pass through Duo Security. There is a mobile app for this which makes it easy to authenticate. We just need to tap "Approve" on the login request sent to mobile app. There are three types of login. One can choose any type based on their liking. One can login using passcodes, call on spot or just clicking approval system.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding account to Duo is time consuming. I had lost my mobile phone and wanted to configure duo again to login to my work station. I had to wait for the administrator to add my account. If he was on a leave then it would have taken another day and I would not have logged in to work station.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using this software it makes sure no one else login to our work station except the authenticated user. Benefit of this software is that it makes our work secure.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
One must give it a try to if they want to secure their work stations. Will make work more. secure.

Increase your security mechanisms

  • March 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a software that has a fairly simple line of learning, that helps you to understand the operation of the system right away.

Something very useful is that it eliminates the need to keep track of external network keys, the different passwords we have and other activities related to security and privacy. Duo Security allows all this to be integrated within your system and you do not have to be using and managing several applications for different aspects related to security.

It integrates easily with third-party applications, allowing you to integrate and manage various applications within your system.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have a phone linked to the application and have a problem with it, it takes a while to restore everything on the new phone. It would be good to simplify the change of phone and to dump the information within the new one does not take so long.

Push notifications sometimes do not go well, may take a while or arrive several at the same time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having the 2FA authentication for our passwords and applications makes the data much safer. It is important for us the information we have within our systems and this software makes us more certain that it will not be lost.

The users that we have within our system also have much easier to interact and enter information within the system, since it is very easy to authenticate through this tool and allows us not to waste time using other applications. In addition, you can easily manage and grant permits to new users, you have a lot of control over what you can or can not do.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Facilitating user access to the system and having more control over the privileges of each user accessing the system and the data entered in it is what this application provides. It is software that increases security in your company and control over your users.
