PingOne from Ping Identity vs. Salesforce Customer Identity

Really like [this] solution, it fits our requirements 100%. There are unlimited possibilities to extend the product, either by creating additional adapters or selectors. We really like the policy management level in PingFederate. It's extremely helpful when we can specify customer journey per many different requirements like user location, application type etc. As well, both StepUp and TopDown authentication flows were implemented [easily].

Salesforce Identity is well suited and I'm on the street visiting and I have to access a customer's account and I need to access multiple systems at the same time to get a lot of information. When I have to compare information on 2 or more different systems and I need it all connected at the same time.

• It has the ability to use many different authentication standards to fit all the different needs of the applications.

As I mentioned earlier, efficiency and security are this software's bread and butter. The usability is very simple and straightforward, very user-friendly. As a result, it is efficient in a way that we can provide faster quality service to our merchants, and security in a way that our credentials will never leak since PingOne always values Personal Identifiable Information.

Ping's support is willing and attentive, but if I am in a position to engage them I am often at a point where most of the usual support engineers would not be in a position to answer the questions I have. However, Ping has been more than willing to engage their product and development teams with our organization as we take advanced deployment and use case challenges to them.

This solution is selected before my time so, not much influence ,but product allow to customized and require decent ping skills to configure the solution. Okta and Other solutions are well suited in this category with some positive and some negative capabilities. it must say that Auth0 is the best option with Azure Identity to move ahead.

One system completes the other. I use Salesforce Identity to enter Salesforce CMS. All my company's client portfolios are in SF CMS. I use the Salesforce Identity and the Salesforce CMS every day, all the time.

• Decreased overall number of help desk calls for password reset.
• Reduced time need for authentication; user[s] now have to authenticate once to be able to use more than 20 applications, instead of authenticating 20 times (per app).

• The biggest return is on the auditing and ease of use for the users.
