It allowed us to use their centralized dashboard to combine all of our apps into one place where our users can goto access them without having to remember all the different URLs, usernames, and passwords. In addition, it has cut down on our tickets for password resets.

I use Okta as a standard user so I can give only my perspective. Having a tool that manages access with multi factor authentication or single sign on to my applications without remembering all the password is a great thing. Also integration with my finger print on my mac is a plus for me.

As previously mentioned in my other comments, our organization has over 30 companies and none of them operate exactly the same. The Okta platform offers us SSO integrations in a wide variety of environments (cloud-only, hybrid, on-prem). We mostly use SAML for our configurations and this allows us to add MFA to our tools/applications for increased security. Additionally we can easily "kill" access to all applications on an end user account immediately rather than having to locate which apps a user had and individually disabling them.

Yes, its actually one of the best module does The Okta Identity Cloud have. Having SSO with different applications is very helpful for us employees especially to those having a hard time remembering thier passwords. And The Okta Identity Cloud prebuilt integration is also one of the key that The Okta Identity Cloud is the reason why they still no1 in the gartner because it has more that 7000 prebuilt applications available for sso which make us superadmin to easily integrated an application in The Okta Identity Cloud.

We have benefitted immensely from this ability to centralize access and identity management across multiple cloud and SaaS applications. The Okta Identity Cloud has allowed for a single management point for provisioning across 40 countries and allows for a centrally located team to control critical user access and user security functions.

Because of The Okta Identity Cloud SSO all users company-wide can access multiple applications from a single place and utilizing/authenticating a single account. From a security standpoint, The Okta Identity Cloud's multi-factor authentication provides peace of mind and protection. Being cloud based, The Okta Identity Cloud eliminates the need of on-premises servers, saving the company space and money.

Yes. My organization uses the Okta Identity Cloud across all of our apps for ease of access. The ability to quickly access everything from a single tile page makes it easy to navigate and operate. Compared to other identity providers, I will always find Okta to be much more user friendly and easy to operate.

Oh yes, in fact that's the reason we moved to The Okta Identity Cloud, this has helped to present a centralized single sign on for all our Saas Applications. In our organization, we are starting to implement or move more towards to SaaS applications and this helps us handle user security in one place for all the tools.

I have been able to get into my daily applications quicker, which allows me to interact with my colleagues and customers at a more manageable time. Simply put, signing in to 20+ applications at once, saves me at least 30 to 40 minutes of going through and logging into all the applications

Yes, whenever we have global SaaS applications, we incorporate The Okta Identity Cloud whenever possible. It is imperative to the information security that we use the identity manager and single sign on features with multi-factor authentication. This is now a question that we ask all potential SaaS applications before entering into contracts with them, as SSO is an important part of our IT strategy.

We've benefitted immensely from the majority of our SaaS applications being connected to Okta. It's enabled us to streamline user application provisioning and de-provisioning from an IT perspective. From an end user perspective it completely eliminates the mystery of where to go to sign in to our applications and how to do the same thing.

The users benefit fromm a centralized identity management platform by not having to remember multiple passwords.<br>However, for frequently used applications the login process is sometimes slowed down and it could increase load times.<br>Generally speaking it is hard to specify as a user when the general profit of the tool is to provide security.

Using Okta that is focusing only on authentication does allow slightly more experience and features over your standard bolt on features in Microsoft and Google G-Suite for example. Ie Okta specialises where other vendors often spread their focus across too many applications and features

Using Okta on a daily basis has really helped improve my productivity. It's nice to be able to log in every day and see all of my apps. I also like that I can log in from my phone when I'm on the go and not at my desk. Makes things a lot easier for me.

Definitely. This is one of the major selling points that we rely on all the time. With all of the multiple cloud environments that are in play today, there would be multiple user accounts, security settings, and application URLs to administer for users. With The Okta Identity Cloud, all of this is simplified into one streamlined, secure interface that users can sign into one time and have the ability to interact with all of their cloud applications.

Okta is a tool that worth their investiment!

Our main benefit was the increase opportunity of our IT Operations team. Instead of learning every single system and their particulatiries, Okta offers a neutral identify managament platform. This mean that once the Sysadmin perform the "hard work" (Integrations, testings, etc), our ITOps can keep it easily.

As a user from a company that helps the client have their reservations individually or as a group. Because of the accuracy of the Okta, its safe and trusted tools, I am a regular performer who is always achieving the monthly targets given to us. With that I always have my incentives given by the company with the help of Okta, my best buddy on providing best services to every clients I meet. Not only that, it also boosts me to work more, and positive that I can always hit my target because I can always depend on the tools that I am using, thanks to Okta. With the trainings I had and the convenience the Okta is providing, I am sure that I will not fail every client who will ask for my assistance. Those are the benefits I am receiving because of Okta.

Yes our organization has benefited from the centralized identity management platform. It allows members of our organization to complete an initial central sign-on and then can access all applications and software throughout the day. Normally there is a 24-hour limit before having to sign-in again. It is very helpful and efficient and saves time throughout the day, causing a seamless workflow when accessing different applications.
