Security screening in an insecure world

  • September 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Multiple options for connecting securely into servers, files, email, computer, and vpn connection. Generally reliable and when there are issues, it's likely the network one's attempting to work and connect through that is the problem, rather than the portal software. Thus, it's doing what is it intended to do. Protect your IP.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is limited based on the number of licenses being used. When connecting remotely, one needs to reconnect when inactive. Although this is secure, a warning would be nice or at least a notice that the connection was lost or severed. In addition, it would be nice to know that the network is not secure and thus one will NOT be able to connect. In other words, I would prefer to know the network is suspect rather than trying multiple times for several minutes before giving up. I would rather know quickly that either it won't work and/or I should move to another network option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Protecting access to files and data entry. Provide ability to connect securely and remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Although our current world requires this level of security, the inconvenience of connecting with Duo Security is not the fault of the software, but rather the need to be secure is inconvenient. However, one inadvertent breach, and the inconvenience becomes a log scale magnitude problem/issue and liability. Especially in a HIPAA compliant environment where patient privacy and confidentiality need to be ultimately protected.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple process to set a business account.
simple way to create sub accounts for the team
And very easy way to log into applications with it.
The option to use send me a push or enter pin code from the app is very good

Nothing at the moment, it has all what we are looking for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it internally to log into our used web sites to add extra login process to keep things secured as much as we can.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a way to keep your login online more secured then this is an easy way to use.
you will put your password then it will send notification to your mobile to approve login.
you won't be able to login without this confirmation on the mobile.

Though pricey, a very good 2FA offering

  • September 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy integration with all of our applications. Having an Apple Watch version available as a client makes using is so very easy. New features being added regularly
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing is a bit high. We are basically using 2FA only from DUO but the Azure MFA is more or less free addition in the EMS offering.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We (everyone actually) need 2FA for Enterprise applications on the web. Having is realized through DUO made it a lot more safer to publish our applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compare all other vendors, you might have 2FA already available.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fast, seamless. Security authentication is uninteruupyable. Different option available for authentication like duo login, call and passcode.

Login for different devices is kind of a pain but that’s the point of this app, to maintain good security so i cant really complain

Im using Duo as a part of milti factor ainthe tivari on for My university directory id. An added layer of security educates the importance of user privacy and authenticity. Its easy to use, app doesn’t consume a lot of space.

As easy as it gets.

  • May 08, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

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.
