1Kosmos BlockID Reviews

1Kosmos BlockID is used primarily for accounting operations, as there are different portals that need to be accessed to check shipping status, invoice status, and when selling on the Amazon portal. Logging into those Amazon portals involves using user credentials, login IDs, and passwords, and 1Kosmos BlockID helps everywhere whether selling through Amazon, Shopify, or working on cloud-based ERP.

In daily workflow, passwords cannot be stored by writing them on chit notes, saving them on phones, or using sticky notes. Previously, reliance was placed on Google Authenticator and another application, Okta verification, which used to help remember login IDs and passwords, but 1Kosmos BlockID is really helpful in that aspect. When logging on a computer system and using 1Kosmos BlockID, it makes logging in anywhere and working on cloud-based products super easy.

1Kosmos BlockID fits into workflow because in account receivable, it's a large-scale business where work is always done on cloud-based products, not on applications. In an entire career of 11 years, only two years have been application-based ERP called SAP, whereas every other application used has been cloud-based, such as Business Central, Oracle NetSuite, and Workday. 1Kosmos BlockID is instrumental in completing day-to-day needs, enabling smooth logins and password management during eight or nine-hour shifts.

The cloud-based feature of 1Kosmos BlockID stands out because when working on SAP, it often went down due to memory size, but since 1Kosmos BlockID is cloud-based, downtime is not experienced. The second standout feature is the login ID and password recognition; it allows the right person to log in without manual entry of usernames and passwords, making 1Kosmos BlockID very helpful in any situation.

1Kosmos BlockID offers passwordless authentication that eliminates 2FA. It operates through biometric authentications, such as facial recognition and thumb impressions, which are compliant security keys for enterprise applications. Identity verification is another strong feature; if 1Kosmos BlockID recognizes a user, it ensures that the right person is logging in. It uses AI and machine learning to scan government-issued IDs, licenses, and passports, matching them with user biometrics for 100% accuracy. The digital wallet feature also stores user identity information in a private or permissioned blockchain, allowing users to control their personal data. It meets high assurance standards, including NIST 800-63-3 and GDPR, and supports both app-based and browser-based user journeys for onboarding and authentication.

1Kosmos BlockID has positively impacted the organization by enhancing security through eliminating usernames and passwords and storing encrypted user data in a private permissioned blockchain, which drastically reduces the risk of data breaches and phishing. Furthermore, it has improved operational efficiency by streamlining the user experience, reducing help desk calls for password resets and simplifying identity management, thus increasing overall productivity.

In terms of time savings, for a team of 15 people, a monthly saving of around eight to ten hours has been observed after using 1Kosmos BlockID. Before its implementation, the IT help desk faced 300 to 500 calls a month. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, that number reduced to just 70 to 80 calls monthly, significantly alleviating common password-related issues.

For improvement, I suggest implementing optimistic execution that allows nodes to process blocks ahead of time for quicker responses, potentially cutting down block times. Additionally, dynamic block intervals for adjusting based on network conditions could optimize resources, increasing transaction throughput when demand is high.

I choose 9 out of 10 because there are one or two improvements needed. With 11 years of experience, I recognize that others with more experience may find additional areas for improvement, but I am hopeful that future updates will address those.

1Kosmos BlockID has been used for more than three years.

1Kosmos BlockID is completely stable, and no downtime has been experienced so far; I hope that it will continue to perform well in the future.

1Kosmos BlockID has excellent scalability; the company has 3,000 employees, and it handles them very well, suggesting that it could easily scale to accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 users without issues.

Initially, customer support was contacted for navigation help, and the experience was positive. The support professional was very knowledgeable and resolved the issue within 20 to 30 minutes, providing a well-explained manual guide as well.

Positive

Before using 1Kosmos BlockID, 2FA and Microsoft Authenticator were utilized, which led to numerous challenges such as data breaches and security issues. The transition to 1Kosmos BlockID addressed these concerns effectively, and there is confidence that the right choice was made.

1Kosmos BlockID has provided a return on investment by significantly reducing the need for IT personnel. Initially, ten people were in the IT support team, but with the reduced ticket volume from 300 to 500 to just 70 to 80 calls monthly, only two IT staff members are now required, saving costs equivalent to around 80 lakhs per year.

The experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing for 1Kosmos BlockID has been great. Previously, issues were encountered with Business Central where changing the price for one single line item would inadvertently affect all other items, but with 1Kosmos BlockID, the impact is limited to the specific line item. Licensing has also been beneficial, as one of the largest licensors in the USA works with clients such as Disney and Marvel, helping manage contracts effectively and reminding of timelines for price changes.

Other options were not evaluated before selecting 1Kosmos BlockID. It was discovered through the internet and chosen based on the impressive features it offered.

Customer support receives a solid rating of 10 out of 10.

Every organization should consider using 1Kosmos BlockID due to its extensive features that meet the needs of businesses today.

1Kosmos BlockID is a great solution for many business problems. Continued feedback will only enhance the product further, and I highly recommend 1Kosmos BlockID to other businesses.

My overall review rating for 1Kosmos BlockID is 9 out of 10.

My main use case for 1Kosmos BlockID is for authentication. Before 1Kosmos BlockID, we were using password authentication. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, we transitioned to passwordless authentication, which includes face unlock and fingerprint authentication through 1Kosmos BlockID.

1Kosmos BlockID is used for employee login using passkeys or FIDO2 authentication instead of passwords or security questions. It also helps in customer identification and identity verification by uploading IDs, taking selfies, and performing live detection to confirm that users are real.

The transition to 1Kosmos BlockID has improved our workflow and reduced the tickets raised on a daily basis. Before implementing it, several tickets were raised every day for password resets or forgotten passwords. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, all these issues were resolved.

1Kosmos BlockID has impacted my organization positively because we previously used password authentication where anyone could easily forget their password. Additionally, hackers could compromise accounts using passwords. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, these problems were resolved.

The best features that 1Kosmos BlockID offers are passwordless authentication, phishing-resistant authentication so that no one can steal OTPs, biometric authentication with live detection, and a decentralized identity wallet that allows users to securely store verified credentials. Self-service account recovery is one of the biggest operational advantages because users can verify their identity and recover access themselves instead of calling IT.

The features of 1Kosmos BlockID that stand out in day-to-day use for business leaders are reduced help desk costs, fewer password-related issues, lower fraud risk, faster onboarding, and reduced branch posers.

1Kosmos BlockID can be improved by making the onboarding flows faster, improving document scanning capabilities, supporting more languages, and providing better guidance during selfie or liveness checks.

I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for the last two years.

1Kosmos BlockID is very stable in my experience.

1Kosmos BlockID is scalable according to user requirements.

I have not used customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID directly, but my team has used it and found them to be very helpful, kind, and timely in their support. I can rate the customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID a 7 to 8 based on my team's feedback, even though I have not used it myself.

Before 1Kosmos BlockID, we were using only password authentication, which is why we moved to 1Kosmos BlockID.

I have seen a return on investment with 1Kosmos BlockID because it has saved time. Before using 1Kosmos BlockID, staff were required to resolve tickets raised for password issues. After implementing it, there is no longer a requirement for personnel to handle these issues because it is a passwordless process, which is very helpful for us.

Regarding 1Kosmos BlockID's pricing, setup cost, and licensing, it is cost-effective. While it is expensive according to our initial expectations, it is very helpful because investing in a tool that helps our organization from a security point of view provides significant value.

Before choosing 1Kosmos BlockID, we evaluated other options.

Regarding 1Kosmos BlockID's governance and security, traditional IAM systems often create accounts based on HR or admin requests without verifying the person's real-world identity. With 1Kosmos BlockID, government ID verification, biometric verification, liveness detection, and identity proofing are possible, ensuring that accounts belong to real people. This is very helpful and prevents hackers from easily compromising accounts since it is passwordless.

Regarding accuracy, 1Kosmos BlockID uses government ID document verification, facial matching, biometric comparison, and liveness detection to check if IDs are genuine and verify that the person presenting the ID is the correct individual and physically present. It is very reliable because no one can create false identities during the verification process.

I advise others looking into using 1Kosmos BlockID to definitely use it because it helps significantly from a security perspective. I would rate this product an 8 out of 10.

My main use case for 1Kosmos BlockID is passwordless authentication, and that is the primary feature we use.

I definitely use 1Kosmos BlockID for passwordless authentication in our organization. We have our resource employee portals and CRM integrated with BlockID, so every time we log in, we do not have to remember our passwords. Day in and day out, we log in multiple times to our employee portals to approve attendance and service requests, and when we get into the CRM, it is just a single scan of the QR code integrated with our login pages. You see a QR code on our login page, you open the BlockID application on your phone, scan the QR code, confirm it is you, and you are logged in—no username and no password. That is how simple it is.

Regarding my main use case with BlockID, I think it was pretty smooth, and we did not have any problems. It is pretty simple and very easy to understand for every user of the organization, whether in finance or HR. You do not have to be tech-savvy to understand the workflow or how to use it.

We used SSO with Okta prior to implementing 1Kosmos BlockID, which we still use, but for passwordless authentication, there was no solution before 1Kosmos BlockID.

The best features that 1Kosmos BlockID offers, besides passwordless authentication, definitely include accuracy. When it does the face scanning, it is very accurate and you cannot bypass that. Convenience stands out as well, as you can either log in with TOTP or QR code scanning, and those two options help you out a lot compared to other products.

1Kosmos BlockID has positively impacted my organization primarily by improving security. You do not need to worry about changing or remembering passwords, which often have to be 12 digits long with several criteria. This adds a lot of user convenience, and the QR code scanning is one of the best features I have seen. It saves a lot of time and removes the hassle of remembering passwords, which would often lead to wasted time resetting them, especially while traveling and lacking email access. It has eliminated those challenges, saved time, and enhanced user convenience, while also boosting security since you are using live biometrics.

I do not think there are any improvements needed for 1Kosmos BlockID. After using it for the last two years, we do not see any challenges, and the features we are using are pretty much enough for our use case.

We are satisfied with 1Kosmos BlockID, and I do not see a need for any improvements at least for this use case.

I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for almost two years.

1Kosmos BlockID is definitely stable. We have not seen any issues for the last two years.

Regarding the scalability of 1Kosmos BlockID, it has been stable for our user base, and we have not noticed any limitations. The architecture allows us to add nodes using a horizontal scalability method without challenges.

I am not directly interacting with the support team. However, from an IT perspective, I do not think there would have been any challenges because the SOPs and documentation were so seamless and easy to operate.

Positive

We used SSO with Okta prior to implementing 1Kosmos BlockID, which we still use, but for passwordless authentication, there was no solution before 1Kosmos BlockID.

The integration with other systems in 1Kosmos BlockID was pretty easy. We have integrated it with our in-house tools and the web API available on the web page makes it very easy to integrate with no hassle. We just need to have the right sets of APIs available and it is pretty simple. We do not see any challenges.

I have seen a return on investment with 1Kosmos BlockID, mainly through time saved and consequently money saved. Even if I am saving just a few minutes a day due to password resets for 2-3% of our workforce, that adds up over time. I do not have exact numbers, but time has certainly been saved and user experience has increased multiple times over, which I consider equivalent to an ROI.

My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing for 1Kosmos BlockID was seamless. Our IT team handled the setup, so I was not directly involved. From the user end, it was just onboarding, installing the application on our phones, and enabling biometrics, so it was seamless. The pricing and licensing are aspects I do not have details on as they are unknown to me.

I did not evaluate other options before choosing 1Kosmos BlockID. It was a new product in the market almost two years ago with a unique feature, so we did not look into any other products.

My advice to others looking into using 1Kosmos BlockID is that it is a wonderful product for passwordless authentication. It is very easy to integrate with applications and you should not look for other products for passwordless authentication. I have covered almost everything about 1Kosmos BlockID. I would rate this review a ten out of ten.

1Kosmos BlockID is primarily used for password verification and passwordless authentication use cases.

A specific use case and one of the primary day-to-day uses for 1Kosmos BlockID is passwordless authentication for internal applications and secure access workflows. It helps streamline authentication while reducing dependency on traditional passwordless methods, lowering the operational overhead and related credential management.

Another use case is strong identity verification and decentralized identity management, especially for organizations looking to strengthen authentication workflows while simplifying things for users.

1Kosmos BlockID has a positive impact on my organization mainly from both a security and operational efficiency standpoint. The passwordless authentication, its primary approach, helped reduce password-related issues, support overhead, and team issues, especially around credential resets and account access problems. It also improved the overall authentication experience for users and strengthened identity and access. From an operational perspective, onboarding authentication workflows became more streamlined, which helped save time for both users and support teams.

While I do not have exact metrics available because we did not notice a visible reduction of password-related support requirements, from a day-to-day operational perspective, 1Kosmos BlockID helped us save time for both users and support teams, simplifying access workflows and reducing the dependency on both manual and credential recovery processes.

1Kosmos BlockID features help to improve both security and user experience by reducing the dependency on traditional passwords. The platform is also useful from an operational perspective.

One of the areas I found valuable with decentralized identity management was the strong identity verification capability. It added an additional layer of trusted authentication where the user has completed the onboarding process, especially for securing applications, accessibility, and account validation.

The onboarding and initial configuration experience with 1Kosmos BlockID could be improved, especially in larger enterprise environments with multiple integration authentication rules. There is also room for improvement around reporting customization and administrative visibility, which would help security teams get more tailored insights based on their requirements.

I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for a little over a year.

1Kosmos BlockID stability is solid. I did not notice any issues.

Regarding the scalability of 1Kosmos BlockID, we never encountered anything related to resource consumption with this product.

1Kosmos BlockID provides return on investment.

I would strongly recommend 1Kosmos BlockID. 1Kosmos BlockID provides strong passwordless authentication and improves the user authentication experience. It also helps reduce the overhead related to credential management. I rate 1Kosmos BlockID as an 8 out of 10. The reason for my rating of 8 out of 10 is simple. There are still some areas for improvement, such as the onboarding and reporting flexibility that I mentioned, but overall, the platform is beneficial for my environment.

My main use for 1Kosmos BlockID was a project in which we had to develop a facial recognition system for another company at the gate of their building. After the facial recognition was completed, we encrypted all of that data and stored it into a database where it was possible to access and review who entered the building.

In my experience with 1Kosmos BlockID, the system was very accurate, with facial recognition working correctly approximately 99% of the time, and the platform is very user-friendly.

The user-friendly aspect of 1Kosmos BlockID is straightforward enough for any user and was very handy for finance and HR departments, and it is not necessary to be a tech person to operate it.

Regarding the metrics with 1Kosmos BlockID, I have to say that we saved 80% of the allocation budget for this project, and the time saved was at least 40%.

1Kosmos BlockID is fine as it is. However, it could potentially reach a full 100% accuracy rate for facial recognition.

I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for at least six months.

1Kosmos BlockID is stable.

Scalability for 1Kosmos BlockID is very easy to manage.

The customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID is good.

This was the first time I used a solution like 1Kosmos BlockID. I did not evaluate other solutions before choosing 1Kosmos BlockID.

Based on my experience, the pricing of 1Kosmos BlockID is very affordable, and the licensing is very long in terms of duration.

There is no specific outcome or changes with 1Kosmos BlockID to report, but because this is the first time I have used a tool like this, I cannot make comparisons. I would like to give the advice regarding 1Kosmos BlockID to not dive deep into the use of this product, as it is very easy to use. I give this review a rating of 9 out of 10.

Passwordless authentication has made the biggest impact for our team as it significantly reduced login issues and helped users access applications faster with less reliance on IT support.

The combination of strong security and ease of use has been one of the most valuable aspects of the platform for our team. 1Kosmos BlockID has improved our security posture while reducing password-related help desk requests and streamlining user access across applications.

We have seen password-related help desk tickets drop by roughly 40%, and employees now spend noticeably less time dealing with login and account recovery issues.

Better documentation for advanced configurations and more granular policy management options would also be helpful.

I would like to see more flexible analytics capabilities, along with a more streamlined administration experience for managing policies and users.
