Streamlined MFA solution used at my company in combination with Okta SSO

  • November 16, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that I can send a push straight to my iPhone and then authenticate with 3D touch and touchID. Authentication is extremely fast compared to MFA through google, apple, etc
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that I could set Duo to always automatically push to my phone instead of asking me to select an option. I also wish that I could have Duo be already authenticated on my iPhone after restoring from an iCloud backup. I tried restoring on an itunes backup and it works if the backup is encrypted. On an iCloud restore you will need to re-authenticate the device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Duo has allowed us to set up MFA for our applications on Okta as well as for OpenVPN connect to securely authenticate sign in by users in the office and working remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend trying it. I just found out that Okta has it's own MFA system that I'm sure would integrate well with Okta. However, Duo integrates very well and works very quickly. Highly recommend.

Very simple to use!

  • February 15, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I use Duo Security almost every day, and I've always had good experiences with it. It's quick and easy to use. I have never had any issues at all. When using the app, I have them send me a push, which sends me a login code. Everything happens within seconds, which is great. There's no waiting time.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I had to pick something to be annoyed about, I would say it's the fact that I had to download an app to my phone in order to use Duo Security. But overall, it's not that big of a deal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It adds extra security when logging in remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Not all employees will want to have the app on their personal phones.

I like the simplicity of sending a push notification to my phone. The interface on my phone is quite simple, and the 2FA process is quick.

Sometimes, I hit "approve" on the push notification on my phone, and it doesn't register on the desktop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is keeping my information more secure.

Works great!

Enhanced security at an extremely small usability pain point.

  • January 10, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
End client runs on everything. Allows multiple client devices. Authentication response times nearly instantaneous, End client can print out it's own key for systems that don't push the request to end devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes my Android phone app needs to both authenticate AND confirm a login. Kind of annoying, not really an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
increased security through dual factor auth.

Duo Review

  • October 06, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use for our end users. While using it on an iPhone is really is a 3 factor authentication.
What do you dislike about the product?
The notification on the iPhone with the updated iOS is hard to use. It might just be a iOS issue but before it was easier to accept the notification without unlocking the screen and opening Duo
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to have 2 factor authentication in order to access our network. This allows us to meet those requirements

Simple two factor authentication product

  • July 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the app capability and the ease of using the product especially for our technically challenged users. Very quick to setup accounts and for users to setup the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost for when users need to use the sms or call feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Adding a second layer of security when accessing our remote systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product adds that easy to use second form of security when accessing the firm resources. The product is also a less expensive option than RSA product and does very similar job.

Strong TFA for Enterprise

  • April 26, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
DUO setup was clear. It seems that every time I add a new service or app, it almost always has a DUO SSO integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually configuring for the first time. Although the documentation and support are good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Okta is our Enterprise TFA solution.
It allows us to centrally manage passwords, and allow for secure TFA VPN access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compared to other TFA solutions, DUO was by far the best choice for our org (under 1000 people)
