Easy to use, reliable, and offers a straightforward setup
We are customers and end-users. We've dealt with the solution for a long time. We've seen how they developed as a startup, and how they've matured over time. They're actually quite advanced and they are sometimes cutting edge compared to other competitors. I'd recommend the solution. They do things very differently. They're very advanced and they're standards-based. They basically have got a very good vision in terms of how they do strong authentication. Other companies are actually following suit and following what they've done to support standards. They're quite advanced and simple to use, with a good support model. They have the edge compared to other solution providers. In general, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

Single sign-on has simplified access while adaptive authentication protects complex user journeys
Regarding areas for improvement in Ping Identity Platform, there is not much. In terms of licensing and implementation costs, it has premium pricing, and it has a very complex implementation. It provides greater feasibility, but it takes a very long time in terms of complete building. There is a very limited number of legacy support, which can pose potential difficulties in integrating with certain older or legacy systems. Additionally, issue troubleshooting can be difficult at times. Sometimes issues can be difficult to diagnose and require extensive technical expertise. There is also a very steep learning curve for administrative purposes and potential difficulties with offline authentication scenarios.

Pros

"The technical support is quite good."
"They are sometimes cutting edge compared to other competitors and have a very good vision in terms of how they do strong authentication, being quite advanced, simple to use, and standards-based with a good support model, giving them an edge compared to other solution providers."
"Ping Identity Platform demonstrates strong stability, as it is not prone to bugs, with the development team consistently fixing issues, making it highly recommended by many clients."
"If someone is looking for a solution that works both for on-prem or hybrid, I strongly recommend opting for the cloud."
"We use the product to run different reports."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
"Setting up the infrastructure with Ping Identity Platform is very easy compared to other IAM products."
"I find the auto-discovery feature the most valuable. It helps us automate a lot of things using a single password across applications."
"It provides ease of connecting all our devices."
"It offers robust features and customization options that justify the cost."
 

Cons

"There's nothing wrong with the solution that we can see. However, maybe they could improve slightly by incorporating decentralized identity blockchain models into their solution."
"Many times when we are authenticating, we'd like the freedom to set the time; maybe it needs to be slightly longer, and before we can authenticate it, it ends up in an error and then we have to create everything all over again in terms of launching the application."
"Sometimes, there are issues with its stability."
"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."
"In Ping Identity, we have had some issues. We've worked with logging and troubleshooting, including some firewall and security issues."
"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."
"Ping Identity Platform must improve its UI since its management console is complicated."
"They should promote more buyer's authentification, like a fingerprint or face recognition, something that's more convenient."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
