    Aruba ClearPass

    We have quite a few visitors to our campus and we don't want to have a set PSK for the wireless so we have configured a guest network where visitors can create an account and gain access to the internet and we don't have to "manage" it since the accounts will expire after a certain time. We have RF scanners in our warehouses and we want them to be allowed on the network and be put into its own VLAN. ClearPass can do this flawlessly by keying off of the MAC address when it comes online and putting it into the correct VLAN. This makes it so we don't have to add each device individually to the system. The only time ClearPass would not be appropriate is in a small deployment where the cost to value wouldn't make sense.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    The Okta Identity Cloud is very helpful as it serves as a one-stop shop for all web applications we use for our company. With just a single sign-on it reduces the time we spent logging in to every application we need. The Okta Identity Cloud is very much effective in saving passwords.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    • Okta provides us a one-stop Sign in for all of our business needs.
    • Okta is a very useful platform for managing all the users or employees in an organization for user provisioning within the org for access management and also externally.
    • Okta is such a simple SSO system, and I love when my work organizations use it. The ability to have a hub of all my frequently used tools, plus one login for all of them, takes a lot of mental load off me as an employee.

    Cons

    Aruba ClearPass

    • More intuitive upgrade process.
    • Add in-service software upgrades.
    • Use common syntax across the various systems within Clearpass. For instance, monitoring view and guest view use different syntax's.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    • The user interface of Okta is basic and needs improvement. There's some learning curve for new users.
    • One time integration effort is high for the initial setup. Took us around 3 weeks.
    • Okta times out pretty quick making us login multiple times in the day.

    Okta has a passion to provide secure and scalable identity solution. Their passion has come across as advocacy in a way that has deepened my knowledge of the field of authentication. I took identity for granted before but after seeing features such as external authentication I know that Okta can enable my business to reach new heights

    Aruba Clearpass is straight forward in terms of day to day use for monitoring and basic user connectivity issues. The system is very robust on the back end, therefore some larger configuration changes may not be the most intuitive. System upgrades and license management are not the most intuitive either.

    Some of its features are great and some are slightly complex and not easy without vendor support.

    We had some issues with ClearPass integration with AirGroup on Aruba Controller Clusters. Basically, it was tough to get coordinated between the controller support and the ClearPass support.

    There isn't a clear method to get a hold of support when trouble arises if you're on their standard plan. You can file a support ticket and they generally are responsive. I've often been able to find similar questions to the questions I've had when it comes to support in their ticket history, however, some have been closed without a satisfactory conclusion for the original poster.

    Alternatives Considered

    Aruba ClearPass

    From my experience, ClearPass has been the best NAC server of all I've seen. Even though configuration is somewhat hard and it's hard to get training, once you learn how to configure it it works very well. The policies are very granular and scalable and the interface is a well-done web GUI that does not need any extra plugins installed, as some of Cisco's product require. There are many more options than with FortiNAC, and many more integration options. Also, troubleshooting and logging is good.

    Okta's Threat Insight adds an extra layer of security which gives it an edge over its competitor and is an early entrant in this market. It has a well-established track record which makes it much more reliable.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    • Customer experience has been a big win for us. Extremely minimal issues reported.
    • We did not have a PAM in place at all until The Okta Identity Cloud
    • Relatively easy to deploy. No major downtimes to deploy was a nice bonus.
