DevOps Manager at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
Gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system
It would be nice to have a export button to file with all tenants/users so that in case of a disaster we will have the option to restore the users from file. For security certifications, we need to make sure we can restore all of our products and data in minimal time. We are backing up the data using the API but it will be better to export everything to an external file so in case of a disaster or mistake from our side, we can have the option to reload all the users and assign them to the relevant tenant as fast as possible
reviewer2804310 - PeerSpot reviewer
Lead Software Engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Journey orchestration has improved fraud prevention but still needs shared rules and better usability
The main improvement needed is that with the tool, you have to build rules for each and every application. There is no common place where you can write the rules and use that rule for all your applications, which is missing. This is a big feature that is missing compared to the other products in the market. Additionally, the SDKs, Journey Player, and other components are not business-friendly, so you really have to be technical to get into it and do those things. A non-technical person would find it really hard to implement and learn things inside Transmit Security. Even though it requires less coding, you still have to have some technical people in your team to really write the rules and integrate those rules into your application.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Frontegg enabled us to worry less about parts of the system that are not unique to our product, and instead spend more time developing out key value propositions."
"It has Audit Log and many cool features that if we were to develop them by ourselves, it would require a lot of research and development resources. Frontegg gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system in which they can also manage some of the features and roles by themself which gives them more control over their environment."
"In addition, I was most impressed with Frontegg's quick turnaround to fix bugs and implement feature improvements."
"Every feature is multi-tenant by design, making different customer requests effortless to provide."
"We like the SSO, permissions and roles, multiple workspaces, and react login components."
"The frontend side is a major benefit that I am happy I can give my customers from day one, without compromising."
"The admin portal layer is super useful and saves valuable front-end development time."
"Their developers were always willing to meet even though we are in very different time zones."
"Transmit interface is flexible and user-friendly, which is important for our workload. Switching from one authentication code to multiple exposure or two-factor authentication (MFA) is seamless."
"Transmit Security has positively impacted my organization by improving the development of workflows in order to help the user experience."
"Transmit Security has impacted my organization positively because it is reassuring to know that we are building on top of a trusted tool, and we do not rely on developers that could make mistakes, and because it is an authentication platform, that could be detrimental."
"Overall, Transmit Security has positively impacted my organization by helping us strengthen authentication without adding unnecessary friction to users, particularly around passwordless authentication and adaptive verification."
"Transmit Security has played a major role for our organization, especially in the authentication areas."
 

Cons

"Frontegg is fairly stable, however, we are looking forward to some promised capabilities, such as more tightly integrated Feature Flag support."
"We really like the ability to add the same user across tenants. From a UX perspective, the flow can be betterized."
"The PHP SDK is limited. It's not a huge deal as we can just use their web API directly, but it is something to note if you're using PHP.‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎"
"The PHP SDK is limited."
"It would be nice to have a export button to file with all tenants/users so that in case of a disaster we will have the option to restore the users from file."
"We're hoping to see more user management-related features, according to Frontegg's roadmap."
"The web interface is missing a way to delete a workspace. I have accidentally created a workspace and was not able to delete it. It's a minor thing that should be supported."
"The customer support varies, but overall, we are satisfied."
"Pricing is an area where Transmit Security could improve. The pricing needs to be more competitive."
"The main improvement needed is that with the tool, you have to build rules for each and every application."
"The scalability of Transmit Security is a little bit tricky. It is not easy to scale and depends on the complexity of my workflows and how many users I am going to support."
