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."
"The initial setup of Okta Workforce Identity is straightforward. I was able to get an environment ready within half a day."
"Okta Platform is highly reliable and does not have any sort of downtime."
"The technical support for Okta is really supportive."
"Workforce Identity's best features include its user-friendliness and easy setup."
"I like the tool's workflows, which is user-friendly. It can integrate with different applications. I particularly like that users are delighted to access their applications without the hassle of entering their username and password each time. It truly enhances user-friendliness."
"I think all the functions of the solution are vital and important because life cycle management is important for some companies. The Single Sign-On feature is fantastic for different customers and advanced server access is really good for access to the servers."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product is easy to use."
 

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."
"In some setup cases, there are issues with attributes not going in properly."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"There is an access request system that is very limited access to the systems available for end-users. The access request should improve in Okta Customer Identity."
"There is no proper documentation on integrating test cases with Okta, and this issue is troubling whenever I try to implement it."
"The product does not offer enough integration capabilities."
"It is challenging to obtain a comprehensive backup."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's good value for money."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"Okta has fairly competitive pricing."
"Workforce Identity is well-priced."
"The licensing model is fine for general service usage. However, the charges for API features and API tokens can be quite high."
"The price of Okta Workforce Identity is reasonable."
"The cost per user for this solution is really high and could be reduced."
"It could be a bit too pricey for small companies. Okta Workforce Identity can add a lot of benefits, but smaller companies may not have a lot of applications that need to be managed by Okta Workforce Identity. In larger organizations, there are more departments, applications, and users to manage. Okta Workforce Identity adds a bit more value to those bigger organizations. In addition to standard licensing fees, there are also additional costs for things"
"It has a yearly subscription. As compared to its competitors, it is quite expensive. It also has a complex licensing model."
