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.

Legacy backup works well with good UI and amazing support
I use it for backup and virtual machines, and the databases are on-premises and in the cloud It's a good solution. It's been in business a long time working with backup. I love it for legacy backup work, I think so. I need more options for virtualization. I know it's good for virtualization, but…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The mobile biometric authentication option improved user experience. It's always about security because, with two-factor authentication, it's always a separate device verifying the actual user logging in."
"PingFederate gives you granular control over the settings. There are many options for fine-tuning policies."
"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."
"It provides ease of connecting all our devices."
"Personally, I appreciate Identity Orchestration the most about Ping Identity Platform, as with a simple drag-and-drop interface and the correct options we can build a complex and personalized process very efficiently and effectively for registration, login, and profile management."
"The most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"PingFederate is a good product but there are limitations."
"The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches."
"Data Insight is a good product to do everything. It is kind of transparent to administrators. It is also a very good solution with regards to GDPR compliance and regulations. Veritas is a well-established company, and it has a long legacy. Veritas solutions have expected stability and flexibility. It supports most of the flexible solutions in the market and has support for data protection, data monitoring, and things like that. In these ransomware times, it is a very important company with good solutions."
"Veritas Data Insight has been instrumental in managing and categorizing data across our storage repository. The tool identifies valuable business data and distinguishes it from non-essential data. This capability empowers us to separate and exclude unnecessary data from our long-term retention strategy. Its valuable feature is alert mitigation."
"It's a good solution."
"The solution allowed us to handle GDPR and we made sure we were ready and had storage optimization."
"I love Veritas support."
"The stability has been great."
"The most valuable features of Veritas Data Insight are the ease of use, one console deployment for the administration, and backups that can be done in minutes. It is a very fast solution."
"The features I find most valuable in Veritas Data Insight include its exceptional speed in classifying unstructured data and its user risk-scoring functionality."
 

Cons

"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."
"We can choose a drop-down to search for which certificate we have to create, which is difficult."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"They could use some bio-certification. It's just more user-friendly and more convenient than entering the one time passes. That would be an improvement."
"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."
"For external customers, they do have challenges, although there are solutions for that available, as well."
"Ping Identity Platform is expensive."
"PingID should put a little more effort into making a pretty self-explanatory deck about their tech features and the services they offer."
"The solution is not lacking any features at this time."
"Veritas Data Insight's reporting capabilities require enhancement."
"The nature of both data processing and start processes often involves varying timeframes for retrieval, mainly dependent on the historical data being accessed. When the request involves pulling information from six months or two years ago, the process may take longer."
"I need more options for virtualization."
"The price of Veritas Data Insight could improve, it is expensive."
"I need more options for virtualization. I know it's good for virtualization, but another product might be easier to work with, like sending to VendCap and Restore."
"Its deployment can be a little bit complex. It should be easier to set up."
"Its deployment can be a little bit complex. It should be easier to set up. The ease of use of this solution can also be improved, and it could have a cleaner, up-to-date, and intuitive GUI. There are a lot of competitors out there with much nicer GUI and easier setup. It should have a better connection with the cloud sources and much more monitoring. I would like to have a single management interface for on-premises and cloud deployments so that we don't have to switch between them. Its technical support can also be a little bit better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."
"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."
"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."
"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."
"The product is costly."
"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."
"The tool is quite affordable."
"Ping Identity Platform is not an expensive solution."
"The price of Veritas Data Insight could improve, it is expensive."
"It is my understanding that the license with one year of support is, per user, around 25 Euros."
"For Veritas Data Insight, the usage is based on a per-terabyte model. The annual cost for this usage is approximately one million dollars. It would be roughly 50,000 dollars to provide a more accurate equivalent."
"Licensing is based on the number of users or the usage in terabytes."
"The solution is cost-effective."
