Enhanced security, reliable, helpful technical support, and easy to install

RSA SecurID Access is a scalable solution. I would rate the scalability of RSA SecurID Access a nine out of ten. Initially, our organization had around 250 users for whom we were aware of the usage of the solution. However, there were certain users for whom we were not notified due to the nature of their job, and hence we were not aware of their usage. Eventually, we decided to scale the solution for all our 4,000 users. Currently, we are using it for 250 users only. There is a high likelihood that we will expand our usage in the future.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches."

"I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use."

"We use the product to run different reports."

"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."

"The product's most valuable features include its cloud-based capabilities for handling cloud applications and providing authentication and authorization through OIDC and SAML. It also supports integrations needed for both local and internal applications, including legacy applications requiring web server access."

"I like PingFederate."

"It gets a mobility portal in place in conjunction with Office 365. It provides very good possibilities and it's much better than other technology that we have used before which was unstable and slower."

"From a security perspective, I highly value the product's biometric authentication methods such as FIDO, FaceID, YubiKey, and the mobile app."

More Ping Identity Platform pros

"I would say that the two-factor authentication and the ease of installation and configuration are the most valuable features of this solution."

"One of the most valuable feature is the ID soft token and hard token."

"I think it is really good when it comes to the hard token side of things."

"It is a scalable solution."

"The most valuable features of RSA SecurID Access are push notifications, multifactor authentication, and ease of integration and deployment."

Cons

"Sometimes, there are issues with its stability."

"PingAccess can only have one token provider, and you cannot enable two different token providers simultaneously."

"From the improvement perspective, they could bring IGA capability, which right now they only have in their SaaS offering."

"One significant challenge was ensuring smooth user migration during system upgrades in Ping."

"PingFederate's UI could be streamlined. They have recently made several improvements, but it's still too complex. It's a common complaint. The configuration should be simplified because the learning curve is too steep."

"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."

"Some colleagues have mentioned API connectivity, data security, and privacy issues."

"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."

More Ping Identity Platform cons

"The interface needs to improve a lot. It should be easier to manage and navigate."

"Sometimes, we encounter issues with other applications that are not compatible with RSA SecurID Access and require expert troubleshooting. At those times, we need additional support from an implementation perspective. This is an area where Oracle can improve as there is no substitute for reliable and efficient support."

"It doesn't offer an agent-based or reverse-proxy-based approach to integration, which could enhance its flexibility."

"There are different compliances across the globe; RSA SecurID Access could be more complaint-based."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."

"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."

"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."

"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."

"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."

"The product is costly."

"Ping Identity Platform is not an expensive solution."

"Ping offers flexible pricing that's not standardized."

More Ping Identity Platform pricing and cost advice

"I think the price of this solution is reasonable compared to YubiKey and Duo given that it offers the same similar features."

"RSA SecurID Access is expensive."

Overview

IDENTITY DEFINED SECURITY PLATFORM delivers a unified, standards-based platform that can be deployed as SaaS, software or both and can scale to handle millions of identities. From multi-factor authentication and single sign-on to access security, directory and data governance, our capabilities work together to give employees, partners and customers secure access to cloud, mobile and enterprise applications, securing and streamlined everything from sign-on to sign-off and everywhere in between.

Ping Identity

The RSA SecurID Suite combines the separate disciplines of access management and authentication with identity governance and user lifecycle management into one comprehensive suite. It goes way beyond the capabilities of traditional identity and access management systems by using risk analytics to provide identity and access assurance. This helps organizations solve two fundamental challenges:

Verifying that their users are who they say they are.
Providing their users with the right level of access.
