Formerly Idaptive Next-Gen Access

They are IAM tools that provide single sign-on access, allowing us to easily and securely access and integrate the software to the tool of our choice.

It's a more affordable option. That's the main reason why our team went with Centrify. From the admin side, its a really clean interface.

Centrify offered us more for our money by being more than just an SSO platform. There were several other features included such as MDM and MFA. This started other initiatives for us and felt the other solutions we evaluated would not have been able to provide.

We reviewed Okta and OneLogin while looking at Centrify for our ticketing solution SSO partner. When doing so we looked at it from the aspect of if we wanted to roll this out where we could see the use cases for it and initially it would be in a couple departments then branch out and Centrify the only one of the 3 we looked at that supported that pricing structure.

Centrify provided both SSO support as well as Mac support; we needed both. Other products had one or the other, but not both.

This made choosing Centrify a no-brainer as we didn't have to have a wide variety of integrations to do and vendors to manage.

Best decision to make, additionally they integrate with each other.

I think they are quite similar and don't have enough knowledge about one over another.

We selected Centrify for their breadth of services and their number of template applications which makes integrating an app a breeze.

Centrify was introduced to provide a secure, versatile and easy-to-use login experience, but it is still competiting against the other products that are in use within our company.

Seemed to be the best in breed and the one with deeper Mac integration on the short roadmap. As an Apple Distinguished School, this is obviously very critical to us. Very easy to set up and it has a deep pre-canned application pool for already deployed apps. Very easy for end users to use.

Centrify's pricing was much better than their competitors. They also offered a better sign-in/multi-factor experience for our users when doing pilot testing. Their product also included other features like Mobile Device Management that was a nice add-on.

Quest seemed archaic and lacking in features when compared to Centrify.

Centrify was a quick roll out for us. The cost was comparable to other tools we looked at and Centrify had additional security options.

We evaluated Clever, even though it is free to schools, tech support was almost non-existent. It doesn’t integrate easily with Active Directory.

We started off using ADFS from Microsoft, which took most of a day to get fully functional and nearly a week to get fully optimized. The documentation was inconsistent with ADFS and there was no real support without opening a Microsoft Premier Support ticket. At the time, if you turned on Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for Office 365, it turned it on for everything without any granularity. Our Information Security department said that MFA was a requirement for offsite access to our email systems, but users didn't need MFA when onsite. We looked at Okta, OneLogin, and Centrify at the same time. Centrify was the only one that responded quickly and offered a free POC with support included. We tried to deploy the Okta solution on our own, but ran into issues due to some of our non-standard AD configuration. We never received a return call from OneLogin. The Centrify POC took about 15 minutes to complete for basic functionality and a couple of hours to work out the issues related to our environment. We have been very happy with the Centrify solution and went live with our POC.

We felt that Centrify had the most flexibility for the cost. They also have fairly robust mobile device management capabilities which some of the other products did not have.

Centrify provided mobile device management and identify access management from one pane of glass, and was less expensive.

Centrify offers many more features and much better control.

We selected Centrify over some of the other services out their because it gives us more options such as SSO and MDM all in one and for the most part it is easy to use not only for the administrator but also for the end user.

Okta has no Mac management

More robust than the competitors.

OneLogin and Okta provide similar experiences, but OneLogin is less mature than Centrify. Their Mac and Windows management suites are still in a beta phase are cannot be deployed en masse to our user base. Okta is more expensive and does not have the security compliance. LastPass Enterprise does not scale and is clearly and excellent personal service that is trying to compete with more robust and enterprise focused products.

Centrify was a much better fit for our organization size and a much simpler utility to manage.

I was previously a OneLogin customer and even though Centrify has a lot more features, I'd have to say that my experience with OneLogin versus Centrify has been a lot better overall.
