Seamless Access Management and Secure Integration Across All Platforms
Reviewed on Oct 24, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Okta offers a seamless combination of user-friendly design, robust security, and reliable integration across multiple platforms. It provides an efficient single sign-on experience that reduces login friction and enhances productivity for both agents and administrators. Through Okta, we maintain secure and streamlined access to essential tools—Guru, Kustomer, UJET, and our LMS from a single, centralized platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I like least about Okta is minimal, as the platform runs smoothly throughout the day. Reauthentication typically occurs only once per shift, which has little to no impact on productivity. Overall, it’s a seamless and reliable access management tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta provides a secure and centralized access management solution that simplifies authentication across multiple platforms. It enables seamless and secure logins to essential tools like Guru, Kustomer, UJET, and the LMS, eliminating the need for multiple passwords and reducing login-related downtime. This streamlined access improves operational efficiency, enhances security, and allows our teams to focus more on delivering excellent customer support rather than managing credentials.

Perfect Balance of Security and Usability with Okta
Reviewed on Oct 24, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Okta is its balance between security and usability. It’s rare to find an identity platform that makes life easier for both end users and administrators. The intuitive dashboard, automation features, and integration ecosystem make it a cornerstone for modern identity management
What do you dislike about the product?
While Okta is powerful, its pricing can be on the higher side for smaller organizations, and some UI areas could be more intuitive. However, the trade-off is solid reliability, security, and scalability — which makes it worth it for most enterprises.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta solves the problem of fragmented identity management. By providing a centralized, secure way to handle authentication and access control, it helps companies protect data, comply with regulations, and improve user productivity. The biggest benefit is trust — knowing the right people have access to the right resources at the right time.

Complex Initial Setup and Configuration
While Okta is powerful, setup can be complex, especially for large organizations or hybrid environments.
Integrating with on-prem systems (like Active Directory or LDAP) can require careful configuration.
Fine-tuning MFA policies, user flows, and app integrations often demands specialized knowledge.
Some admins find the learning curve steep for advanced features like API integrations or Workflows.
💸 High Cost for Advanced Features
Okta’s pricing structure can be expensive, especially when scaling:
Features like Adaptive MFA, Lifecycle Management, and Advanced Workflows are often sold as add-ons.
Mid-size companies sometimes feel they’re “nickel-and-dimed” for capabilities that competitors bundle in.
Licensing costs can grow quickly as new applications and users are added.
🧭 Admin Console Usability Issues
Although improving, the admin dashboard can feel cluttered or unintuitive:
Certain configuration screens are buried behind multiple menus.
Searching for users, groups, or logs isn’t always fast or straightforward.
The reporting tools, while detailed, can lack flexibility for custom analytics.
🐢 Inconsistent User Experience
End users sometimes report small but frustrating UX issues:
The MFA prompts can be repetitive or confusing when switching networks or devices.
Password reset flows occasionally lag or cause confusion if synced with multiple systems (like HRIS + AD).
The mobile app (Okta Verify) occasionally has connectivity or push notification delays.
🔍 Limited Customization
Customization is somewhat limited for certain use cases:
Branding and login page customization options are basic without deep developer work.
Some admins wish for more granular controls or custom MFA rules beyond what’s built-in.
APIs and SDKs are powerful but can require additional developer overhead to tailor fully.
🧩 Integration Edge Cases
While Okta integrates with thousands of apps, not all integrations are perfect:
Some third-party tools require manual SAML setup or troubleshooting.
Keeping provisioning sync consistent between Okta and niche SaaS tools can require maintenance.

✅ What problems Okta is solving and how it benefits me
Okta solves the challenges of managing user access, security, and authentication across multiple systems. Before Okta, logging into different tools required separate credentials, which led to password fatigue and security risks. With Okta’s Single Sign-On (SSO), I can access all my work applications with one secure login, saving time and reducing frustration.
It also addresses security concerns through Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and adaptive access controls, helping protect company data and meet compliance requirements. The automated provisioning and deprovisioning features ensure that the right people have the right access — especially important for onboarding, role changes, or offboarding.
Overall, Okta provides a smoother, safer, and more efficient login experience, reduces IT overhead, and strengthens organizational security by centralizing identity management.
