Offers security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed
There are a couple of things. One is the BreachWatch feature. It's one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords. So, it checks the passwords and helps improve them. There's also a security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed. Some people haven't changed their passwords for months, even though applications force them to change every 45 or 90 days. So you can catch those issues and warn them. Most applications allow for rotation, but some don't. I've seen people use the same password for years. At least Keeper tells us these passwords haven't been rotated, and we can warn them to change them manually since we can't force people to change the password.

Automated lifecycle management has cut onboarding times and now drives secure, clean access
Although I am a fan of Okta Platform overall, there are areas where it could improve security outcomes and reduce admin friction. My top improvement areas include the system log and analytics upgrade, which are great for point troubleshooting, but trending and root cause analysis across large tenants still require exporting to SIEM. Verbose queries and long-range retention costs can add up. Additionally, while certificate rotations are better than most, the process is still manual for busy portfolios, especially concerning multi-SP SAML certificate rotations and app metadata drift. Two more buckets of potential improvements for Okta Platform involve user experience and security. There is the issue of push fatigue and prompt sprawl, where users receive multiple prompts across different apps and sessions. I arrived at the rating of eight because the core controls are strong and reliable, but a few operational UX and UI gaps prevent it from being rated higher. The reasons for not giving it a nine or ten include ongoing issues concerning safety and change safety, the complexity of group rules and mappings, and the lack of robustness in policy management. Additionally, there remains a need for more manual involvement than necessary, especially for large portfolios and dual certificate rotation, along with proactive SP data metadata validation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BreachWatch feature is one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"The initial setup of Okta Workforce Identity is straightforward. I was able to get an environment ready within half a day."
"Okta Platform has positively impacted my organization through measurable risk reduction, faster onboarding, and fewer tickets."
"The product’s most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"Other than Okta being an easy and awesome integration tool, one of the best features it has is the provisioning and deprovisioning, which makes management way easier. You don't need to be too technical to understand how it works."
"Okta Platform is the gold standard when it comes to identity providers and the single sign-on experience."
"Time saved is a great example of return on investment, as Okta Workforce Identity has saved approximately 50 to 80 percent of our time."
"We face no challenges in integrating the product with our legacy systems."
 

Cons

"The final implementation was challenging because we had to roll it out to three different departments within the same umbrella, each with its own domains."
"I would like to see the provisioning simplified."
"It would be pricing, which is a tough one because it goes against Microsoft. A lot of companies say they're a Microsoft partner, and they get all their software for free. Okta is like a luxury product, and it's not the most affordable one. I would say if they could work on pricing, it would help. Other than that, they've done great strides in developing a product that is really good. The companies that do see the value tend to invest in it."
"You can't hide the device when you're checking logs."
"The initial setup can be complex at first."
"UD attribute mapping, Okta group rules, and dynamic usage could use improvement. It also needs more in-depth functionality and features to integrate with RADIUS solutions."
"I would consider the scalability of Okta Platform to be a six."
"All of the governance functionality and privileged account management could be improved."
"The stability could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's good value for money."
"Okta Customer Identity is not an expensive solution."
"The product's price is high. For each feature, a certain payment is required."
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors."
"This solution is costly. Pricing is decent if you have less users, but it significantly goes up the more users you have, with its cost not justified."
"The price of the solution is good."
"Okta's pricing is right where it needs to be and right in the middle of the market."
"The solution is not the cheapest but not the most expensive. They are in the middle rating."
"The solution's pricing model could be better for SMBs."
