    Cisco Secure Access by Duo

    Cisco Secure Access by Duo is recommended if you need to enable multifactor authentication with no major effort to implement it, understanding you have to pay a license per user. It's important to mention that what you are paying gives you a lot of possibilities to enable SSO on your applications, even legacy systems., there is no need to pay extra for it. If you are looking for free or cheap software, Cisco Secure Access by Duo is not an option.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    In our organization, we use quite a lot of tools and systems to help our clients. If you have the same situation in the company, this tool is very well suited for you. Having Okta Identity Cloud manage and store those tools and systems helps us do our tasks more efficiently.

    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

    Cisco Secure Access by Duo

    • An extra step to configure when setting up with things like O365 products whereas the native client would have been easier.
    • At the time of implementation it did not integrate with the rest of the cisco security suite.
    • Documentation was light or lacking for any lesser known products.
    • Had to configure ManageEngine as a "generic app" when doing SSO. Really need to build out the prebuilt app's base quicker for us lazy IT people.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    • Backup policy! As of today, Auth0 does not provide a centralized way of backing up the information and users in the tenants. From a B2B perspective, this could be a great tool, because it would simplify the backup and data recovery process for the Auth0 customer
    • Import users as a strategy that creates a new user is weird, from a Data Recovery perspective
    • No dashboards to monitor the status of logins, users and data flow between web application and Auth0. This coud be a great tool to customize by our needs, as a way to visualize data and create reports

    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

    Like all Cisco products, it can be a little difficult to configure and use properly. Once set up, it works like a charm, and we rarely have to reconfigure it or update it. We do wish it integrated better with our SonicWALL firewalls.

    Most of my support has come from the pre-sales side, as I haven't done much with post-sales support. The engineer was helpful, though it would have been even better if he had more production experience. Hopefully the backing by Cisco will give Duo support the deep bench that one would expect out of Cisco.

    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

    Cisco Secure Access by Duo

    I think that Duo is better than SecureAuth because the interface is better. I like the usability better and I like the design and functionality better. I wasn't involved in the selection process and initially didn't want to make the switch because I had heard some complaints about Duo but now that I have used it for a couple of years I would definitely say it is better than what I was using.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    We had Azure Multi-Factor Authentication in the past and having The Okta Identity Cloud replace it was a night and day difference. Honestly, this is a difficult comparison since our Azure Multi-Factor Authentication was exactly that only for our users and ONLY did MFA. The Okta Identity Cloud does that for our employees and customers as well as SSO for them AND our PAM to name a few. It's not a stretch to say they are very different.

    Return on Investment

    Cisco Secure Access by Duo

    • Duo Security has been a positive ROI in that it has prevented unwarranted access to confidential information.
    • Duo Security has been a positive ROI in that it keeps me informed of what's going on with my devices.
    • Duo Security has been a negative ROI in that it costs money that I'm not sure is well spent all of the time.

    The Okta Identity Cloud

    • We have addressed a major risk with MFA/SSO on the majority of our apps very quickly - 2-3 months to implement completely.
    • Added security without adding very much friction to end user.
    • After a year or less Okta is a main part of our zero trust initiative.
