The Okta Identity Cloud

Organisations requiring more custom rules for access, specifically non Microsoft organisations. Having said this it can integrate with Microsoft as well.

Okta Identity Cloud is ideal for any company with multiple users who are looking for an easy way to manage company apps and sign into them with ease. It's a great tool for any company, no matter the size. I used Okta before coming to my current company, and the previous company in mention was much smaller in scale.

The Okta Identity Cloud is in my opinion the premier tool for providing MFA to your workforce. Extremely easy to setup, standards based, stable, and a lot of user self setup/self help features. Makes managing user identify and disparate directories much more simple. Less appropriate for providing a true application portal experience for users as it's integrations in that area are mostly for cloud-based applications and not on-prem systems.

Appropriate to: integration in a heterogeneous environment, where threre's multiples system, OS' and roles that need to be setup. Okta works well with multiples OS and guarantee standarization of all these softwares in a unique and easy interface. Okta is also good for startups and medium size company, because besides being expensive you can balance this high cost with a basic IT team, due to the easyness of the software.

Not appropriate to: companies that relies strongly in solutions of a single supplier, like Microsoft or Google. In these scenarios, will be chepear and faster to the inherit SSO solution.

On my daily basis of using Okta, it never failed to amuse me in every work-related concerns. Using the updated tools I am using under Okta, I can confidently provide best and quality options to every customer and clients I deal with. Because of the up to date information we have on the tools we are using, as a team lead coordinator talking with clients about hotel group reservations, we are able to assist them and look for the best available hotel that meets their preferences using the accurate information we have on the tools under Okta. Because of this, our repeat customers are also recommending our service to their friends and colleagues. In that way we also improve our sales and expand our growing team with the help of Okta. Easy to access, secured logins and accurate information designed for success for every business. I will receive a call from a client looking for a group reservation for a particular event, using the tools under Okta, I will provide the available hotels we have that suites the needs of the client then, close the booking as easy as that. Okta helps to make the work easier as I am using it when I started this company way back August 16, 2021.

The Okta Identity Cloud is very well suited to act as a single sign-on tool for an enterprise. It allows you to sign-in once at the beginning of your day and then automatically signs you in to other platforms that you access throughout the day. For example, your email, calendar, HR software, or any other application can be linked to the system. It reduces the risk of forgetting log-in credentials and saves time throughout the day.

I think it get's the job done and the features they have are great.

Basically, there are whole lot of Applications in OKta Integration Network. So whenever you want to integrate those , you are just few steps away. More understandable rules and policies . OKtA is best suited for Single sign on federated authentication. There are options Like Just in Time provision So as soon as user is there in Source you can provision it with no wait

It's ideal for all employees -- whether you are in the office, working from home, or on the road traveling -- and regardless of device.

I think this works well for dual login to any financial, proprietary, or CRM information that requires (or should require) an extra layer of security. We also use this to sign on to Microsoft 365 and other softwares jointly shared across our network. This program may not be appropriate for small businesses that does not require file sharing or logins to Cloud based systems.

I have been happy with OKTA 1. Easy to onboard New Employees 2. Easy to Terminate Users (close) many accounts at once. 3. Set up groups of Apps Based on Job Roles 4. Secure Access to software with Easy to Use MFA. 5. you don't have to supply users with their passwords to APPS

Okta is best for a large organization using many different software applications on a regular basis, allowing employees to not have to sign into each one of them as they use them. For small organizations, it might be superfluous, but for large organizations, it saves time and allows employees to get a lot of management and bureaucratic tasks are done originating from one web page.

If you need SSO, this is the place to do it. Having a single login for users is something that is amazing for most people. Now they don't have to remember a variety of logins for various systems. Additionally, if that one login is revoked, it terminates access across multiple systems.

Well suited for enterprises that leverage multiple partnerships for a tech stack.

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.

It is well suited where user gets the access to change their own password and once changed, it will be changed throughout the company-wide applications under their Okta permissions and they don't have to call the service desk and wait for them to change it. It is very easy for adding various applications to add into the dashboard for users to access under one roof.

If looking to get internal users from AD pulled into the cloud for SSO between applications, this is a good fit. It could also pull in and maintain customers for external access to applications. Otherwise, it would be less appropriate.

Okta is suited when we want to restrict the users to use a few functionalities of the product. We can use it to authenticate and authorize the user. With one login, we can use all the other apps without individual login to each and every product. Okta's homepage can be improved.

Okta integration is really useful and helps to automate the systems and workflow, user-friendly, and easy to follow and implement in the daily work routine. Okta allows the efficient configuration of SAML 2.0 connects with vendor websites which is a core security feature. One issue with Okta login is the inability to put any modifier in the address bar to redirect users to Okta sign-in page.

I have not used or explored all of its usages yet but one thing I experienced is changing passwords with my tools. Before, we used to wait for a specific hour when we can call SD to change our password. It could reach a day or two days, especially during the weekend but now we can immediately change the password on our end without any help or support.

The Okta Identity Cloud is best for my online group booking. The Okta Identity Cloud makes my job easier where I can access different tools for my only booking for my clients and this provides security also to my tools. I could say that Okta Identity cloud can help you enhance your ability and help you learn or discover new things every day.

This is well suited for anyone who has sensitive information and wants users to need a two-step process before logging in to potentially sensitive company platforms or information. It is great for people who have remote employees working from anywhere, because there are additional security risks that come with that if you are not including the Okta step. It might not work as well for companies where employees don't have easy access to their phones, or companies where there is not much sensitive information and therefore they do not need additional barriers.

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.

Okta service is great to access apps via Single Sign-On facility. But yes it need an improvement where we need to reset Okta service when thing got broken.
