Find out in this report how the two Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product is easy to use."
"Okta Workforce Identity is easy to use and has a lot of components."
"The initial setup of Okta Workforce Identity is straightforward. I was able to get an environment ready within half a day."
"We find the solution to be reliable for our customers and it is nice that it is cloud-based and can be accessed from anywhere."
"It has a wide range of MFA options. I prefer "Okta Verify" out of them all."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is flexible and easy to install."
"The product requires very little maintenance."
"Good support for single sign-on protocols."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to assign only one password for the user at a false value."
"It is very easy to scale and use as you want."
"Red Hat SSO has a lot of very concise, well laid out documentation, which is available in the free edition as well."
"Red Hat SSO integrates well with our other solutions. Using OIDC protocols and ITL integration, employees can authenticate with Red Hat SSO and access our microservices."
"We have experienced some challenges in integrating this solution with Scope and Cognito."
"It is challenging to obtain a comprehensive backup."
"You can't hide the device when you're checking logs."
"Okta doesn't have a partial push. It pushes down the full profile schema for lifecycle management or provisioning."
"It's not compatible with on-premises installations, unless you host it as a SaaS. We were not able to do that. For example, imagine a scenario where the cloud is not available. Then, Okta will not work for you. That use case will readily fail because it doesn't have an on-premises installation that you can use to authenticate or provide identity and access management. If you have a purely on-premises solution that is not connected to the internet, then this will not work. This is one area that can be improved."
"The only aspect in which it can be improved is that the interface could be cleaner. I found this even when I was trying to do my certification exam because the certification is hands-on. You find yourself fumbling around a little bit to find simple things. This happens even when you start to get familiar with the product."
"On the admin side, we can create our own passwords instead of generating one, which is usually difficult to explain to a user."
"The error logging could be improved. Okta doesn't provide enough details when you are troubleshooting an issue. It's often difficult to fix it from our end, so we always need additional support from Okta."
"Red Hat SSO's architecture could be updated."
"Security could be improved."
"The product’s technical support services could be better."
"They could provide more checks and balances to find out if there have been any security lapses, e.g., if somebody is trying to break into the system. Some other products have these detection mechanisms in case someone is trying to hack into the system or find out a user's passwords."
