Sachin Vinay - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates secure 2FA for admins, facilitates OTP generation, and enhances security
One suggestion is to develop a more user-friendly solution that is cost-effective so that a hardware-based solution can be provided to all users using VPN services or any configuration service requiring confidentiality. This would allow for broader distribution among a larger number of system admins and software engineers, which is currently not feasible with the existing hardware-only approach.
Parwiz ElmJo - PeerSpot reviewer
It's an inexpensive, scalable solution that has improved our security
We use Keeper to store passwords We previously kept our passwords in an Excel file. Using Keeper makes us more secure.  Keeper has strong security features.  The password rotation feature could be improved. I have used Keeper for three years. I rate Keeper eight out of 10 for stability.  I…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its mobile application. It is particularly beneficial as it eliminates the need for hardware management."
"Its ease of use is most valuable. It is simple to use and can be deployed out-of-the-box. It is quite a mature product with all the required features."
"Their resolution time is timely, and they provide solutions efficiently."
"Fortinet FortiToken provides security and authenticates that the right external people are working with a company's system."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I love the push-button authentication on FortiToken Mobile. It's also great that the soft token automatically reloads the OTP at intervals, so I always have a fresh code to enter."
"Fortinet FortiToken has a lot of RADIUS functionality."
"The solution is unique in catering to Fortinet, making it very useful and secure."
"Auto login across platforms allows for no copying and pasting."
"The generator of complex passwords keeps me safe from being hacked."
"Keeper was user-friendly."
"I like the tool's keyword editor and SSO."
"Keeper has strong security features."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
"Available for Windows platforms and also Mac OS and Linux systems."
"It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts."
 

Cons

"Maybe the price could be improved, and the integration could be better. But the integration is different from the authenticator side."
"Support is a pain point in Bangladesh because there aren't many experienced Fortinet engineers in this country. It's easier to find one certified in Cisco, Palo Alto, or Juniper."
"The Fortinet FortiToken server doesn't have centralized integration with other Fortinet tools and third-party tools."
"It needs a lot of coupling with their other Fortinet products. To implement FortiToken, I most probably need to couple it with FortiAuthenticator for full implementation. An RSA token can be used with many devices, whereas Fortinet FortiToken is always linked to only one FortiGate device. If I want to reuse the token across five or six FortiGates, I would have to get the FortiAuthenticator product. I can't use one token to connect to different FortiGates, and I need to get another product to enable this functionality. They should also improve the support for their mobile client. There should be a more detailed roadmap for the operating systems being supported. Some of our users were using an old iOS iPhone, and they were forced to get a newer phone because FortiToken didn't support that version of iOS. Similarly, there may be a version of Android that is not supported, so the users need to change the phone. This was one of the reasons why our deployment took longer."
"I would like to see if FortiToken can integrate with Office 365 mail to support the same two-factor authentication experience that I have with ESET. With ESET, when a user logs in, they are easily directed to the ESET authentication page, where they are prompted to enter their OTP after supplying their username and password. I understand from support that FortiToken cannot do this with email integration. That's why I opted for ESET."
"I'm not sure if it's already available, however, I wonder if there's an option to have it sent to my email address instead of having it on the mobile app."
"They could enhance synchronization with mobile applications, and addressing minor issues with authentication could further improve user experience."
"I would like to see the product improvements in dynamic VLAN pooling. Specifically, when users are assigned different VLANs based on their SSID, ensuring no unintended lateral traffic between users would enhance security and efficiency."
"Its aesthetic needs improvement."
"I would add a category for personal documents or photos of ID cards."
"I would love it if you didn't have to re-authenticate when you start up a new browser."
"Search functions are sometimes weird."
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
"Rearranging folders via drag/drop functionality would be very helpful."
"Possible offline access to passwords. Therefore, when internet access is unavailable, I can still access my vault."
"Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution’s price is good."
"Although the platform is relatively expensive, it offers significant value. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."
"The pricing is not very high, so I'd rate it around six out of ten, where one is high and ten is low."
"It is included as part of our firewall license."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest, and ten is the highest, I rate the pricing an eight."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"From an Indian perspective, it's definitely costlier."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"Its price is reasonable."

"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
