Find out in this report how the two Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The admin portal layer is super useful and saves valuable front-end development time."
"Their developers were always willing to meet even though we are in very different time zones."
"The MFA policy via Frontegg allows us to enable/disable/enforce the Multi-Factor Authentication policy of our users and to enhance security and adhere to modern standards."
"It has Audit Log and many cool features that if we were to develop them by ourselves, it would require a lot of research and development resources. Frontegg gives us everything we need to ensure that our customers have a safe and reliable authentication system in which they can also manage some of the features and roles by themself which gives them more control over their environment."
"We like the SSO, permissions and roles, multiple workspaces, and react login components."
"Every feature is multi-tenant by design, making different customer requests effortless to provide."
"Okta has more when it comes to the policy level. It has distinctive features where you can do a mix and combination to have users access applications for various business cases."
"As far as our security team is concerned, the ease of implementing multifactor authentication is definitely the biggest value for our organization."
"There is no password hash saved on the cloud, which is the part that I like the most."
"The most valuable feature of Okta Customer Identity is its SSO because it's very easy to use and it's user-friendly. Even the admin portal of the solution is very user-friendly, and you can walk through it with ease. Okta Customer Identity is not a complicated solution, and even the workflow automation feature is very, very easy to understand."
"I think all the functions of the solution are vital and important because life cycle management is important for some companies. The Single Sign-On feature is fantastic for different customers and advanced server access is really good for access to the servers."
"The end user's ease of use is the most valuable feature."
"We can integrate two-factor authentication with the applications."
"The most valuable feature of this solution for most customers is access management."
"We're hoping to see more user management-related features, according to Frontegg's roadmap."
"We really like the ability to add the same user across tenants. From a UX perspective, the flow can be betterized."
"The web interface is missing a way to delete a workspace. I have accidentally created a workspace and was not able to delete it. It's a minor thing that should be supported."
"Frontegg is fairly stable, however, we are looking forward to some promised capabilities, such as more tightly integrated Feature Flag support."
"It would be nice to have a backup export with all tenant/users so that in case of a mistake we can have the option to restore the users."
"The PHP SDK is limited. It's not a huge deal as we can just use their web API directly, but it is something to note if you're using PHP. "
"Some limitations in scalability. Each application we work with can be completely different, resulting in highly variable implementation processes."
"The product must be provided for free."
"This solution would be improved by adding biometrics features."
"All of the governance functionality and privileged account management could be improved."
"I would like to see the provisioning simplified."
"There is an access request system that is very limited access to the systems available for end-users. The access request should improve in Okta Customer Identity."
"Okta has a limitation with directory integrations. If you have multiple Active Directory integrations, the user distinguished name (DN) and the manager DN don't get imported properly into the Okta user profile."
"In the future, we'd like to see the product implement more security features, like, for example, zero-trust."
