    we use FortiAuthenticator in our organization by integrating the server with Active directory to sync and authenticate users from Organization Units created in Active directory. By sending the FortiToken from to the end user, the user can use the Token to authenticate his username and password to access Palo Alto global protect VPN access

    Workspace ONE Access is a good fit for a variety of corporate scenarios, such as the need for businesses to provide secure access to their data and applications, the need to lower the costs associated with managing multiple user identities, and the need to boost employee productivity by streamlining access to corporate resources. It is less appropriate if you are not using all of its function and just use it for a particular function undermining its capabilities for example in our organization the use case is primarily restricted to giving staff members safe access to company information and applications which debunks its other features such as compliance and product support that it provides.

    Omnissa
    • It provides an "SSO" type experience for access to applications and data. Users sign in to one "portal" and then have access to whatever university systems they need to do their job.
    • It greatly simplifies securing these types of access. Firewall rulesets can be made much simpler and easier to manage, as well.

    FortiAuthenticator is superior in many ways against other peers like Cisco Duo for example. Simply that has more features in integrating with firewalls and securing large users base. The user friendly GUI is a plus point to FortiAuthenticator and the way its securing the users access and authenticating the users with active directory make it stand up

    We also examined several other options, particularly Lenovo Unified Workspace. The Lenovo product had some advantages over the VMWare product, particularly in the areas of customization of the look / feel and user experience. However, we have been a longtime VMWare customer, and we have VMWare VDI and other product implementations in place now that paired very well with the VMWare product.
