SolarWinds Access Rights Manager (ARM) vs. Authlogics Multi-Factor Authentication

It [SolarWinds Access Rights Manager (ARM)] is well suited for small to medium sized companies who want to enhance and ease up their daily work. As well as it is suited for organized structures, it has its problems with very complex environments. For example, if you are working with direct and multiple permissions instead of having more granular group based permissions.

Authlogics can be used anywhere there is a need for second factor authentication. Moreover, if you care about users and want something easy for them to use then 1.5 MFA from Authlogics is a blessing. However, if you have the need the users should use their device or something they have always then this is not the ideal solution.

• Licensing model when we changed over to SolarWinds was [I feel] a nightmare. It needs to be more streamlined and SolarWinds needs to understand what their customers require. When we changed over to SolarWinds we found it very hard to get answers to what modules we were still licensed for.
• Our current system is not functioning. We can't login to the application with the accounts we created that were working. The error that appears doesn't help to resolve it. So at present we just renewed licenses for this year and we can't use the system.

It was my first exposure to this type of product and I wasn’t given the time to figure out how best to implement it. I would say get a plan together of what you are tying to accomplish first

I found the installation and configuration to be much easier and more straightforward. What also assisted in the decision to go with Access Rights Manager, was the fact we already made use of Solarwinds products. Knowing from previous experiences with their support staff, meant we knew how great their after-hours support was whenever we had any technical issues with the platform. We felt it would be better to keep it all under one roof so to speak

The only advantage of Google Authenticator is that it is free. Authlogics has many more features than Google Authenticator especially 1.5 MFA which is unique to it. It has official support which comes in handy when users face authentication issues or the radius servers having problems. Moreover, it can be integrated with active directory providing a central place of administration for your users.
