Good if you want a temporary solution to too many passwords.

• Flexible to work with most web sites and thick clients

• Fairly performant

• This tool is essentially a hack, making the user experience pretty weak. For example, we use it in an application which has a box to type your password. Every time you enter some data, ESSO steals the focus and types your password into the box, even if you aren't about to submit the form requiring the password.
• This tool creates a 2nd CN in the directory and this broke some of our applications which were only expecting a single CN per user in the directory. Why can't it use a traditional database instead?
• This tool caused performance issues with Putty. It would peg our CPUs at 100% if the user had Putty running. It took a very long time to resolve the issue.

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.

• Customer data can be easily accessed
• we have protected our data which can also be accessed anywhere without worrying [about] internet attacks
• Pricing is bit high for what we get

• We spent a lot of time implementing it on different applications. However, because it uses screen scraping, every time our apps upgraded, it broke the integration with ESSO, so we had to keep fixing the integration. After a few years, we have stopped integrating new apps with it due to this headache.
