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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is quite good."
"From a security perspective, I highly value the product's biometric authentication methods such as FIDO, FaceID, YubiKey, and the mobile app."
"I work on the application onboarding process because we have multiple customers and get data from different sources."
"It is a scalable solution."
"PingFederate gives you granular control over the settings. There are many options for fine-tuning policies."
"I like PingFederate."
"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."
"It's pretty stable as a product."
"PingFederate is very flexible. We can do many customizations, and it also provides an SDK to tailor it to our specific requirements. There are also numerous plugins available. I've worked with tools like ForgeRock and Okta, but I find PingFederate to be the most customizable."
 

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."
"From the improvement perspective, they could bring IGA capability, which right now they only have in their SaaS offering."
"They could enhance the product's device tracking for better zero-trust security would be beneficial. Currently, it tracks IPs well but lacks detailed device information, which is crucial from a security standpoint."
"PingID's device management portal should be more easily accessible via a link. They provide no link to the portal like they do for the service. The passwordless functionality could be more comprehensive. You can't filter based on hardware devices. Having that filtering option would be great. Device authentication would be a great feature."
"The product's community has certain shortcomings that require improvement."
"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."
"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."
"PingAccess can only have one token provider, and you cannot enable two different token providers simultaneously."
"We have encountered instances where it is not easy to do authentication."
