    It helps to store our data online and also they provide security to our data. We can access our data anytime and anywhere. The Initial setup was heavy it could have been much better. To overcome this they do provide good customer support where we can call them to clear our concerns. It is not suitable for small business people where the cost is high inside many can't afford their plans.

    If you need users to reset passwords but don't have VPN access to your network, this is one of the best options. It also works very well for helping a locked-out user, provided they have taken the time to set up their account. Then, of course, they need to remember the details, but when they have dotted all of the i's, it just works.

    • Assist with post-implementation reviews to ensure we configured everything correctly
    • Better integration with mobile devices such as an app to change M365 passwords for our mobile-only users
    • It would be great if password changes of mobile users updates the AD so these accounts don't reflect as dormant AD accounts.

    For end users the product is very easy to use. For administration, you may need to do some looking around or contact support to achieve complex tasks. However the product is very flexible. Every dialog box, banner, etc can be customized if needed. Also, support is very good at helping with any issues.

    We are using Janrain to protect our data from internet attacks and they also have good customer support to cover critical instances. Customer data can be accessed easily. They also have an MFA facility to stop unauthorized persons [from] accessing the data. They also provide a 30-day basic plan to experience their facility which can be useful to know the features and facility of that product.

    I did some research but did not find any other solutions that worked the same way or did what I needed it to do. I've used other manage engine products in the past and knew I could trust their software.

    • Much fewer help tickets for users with expiring passwords.
    • The automated emails mean we don't miss anyone whose password is expiring.
    • We've also used the MFA option for admin access to servers, adding that little extra peace of mind that they are secure.
