(1-25 of 38)- Simple MFA deployment on VPNs
- Active directory integration for more complex deployments / lower admin overhead after implementation
- Ability to deploy with user id DB in cloud for smaller / simpler deployments
- Have had issues where Firebox comes "disconnected" from the cloud, which results in VPN functionality outage
- Mobile app does not always provide push notifications, even with sufficient device permissions - We train users to open the app when attempting to auth
- I am not sure if 3rd party authenticators are supported, possible they are and I'm unaware, but this would be a nice feature, occasionally receive objections to installation on personal devices
Authpoint MFA easy to use and flexiple MFA solution
- Works well with the free Authpoint client and the OpenVPN clinet.
- Token management is simple and hosted completely in the cloud to reduce overall complexity
- Setup was simple and and staighforward
- Suppports several authentication methods we have used both RADIUS and SAML effectively, but ADFS, IDP, RDWeb, and RESTful API, and other custom apps are supported.
- Geofencing for RDP has been very useful as it is independant of our firewall geofencing. This is quite useful for organizations like us who do not Geofence at at the firewall level so as to provide global access to resources on the DMZ.
- Authpoint can integrate with other vendors firewalls, but this is not easily set up. The company could provide better support when customers who need to use a firewall from a third party vendor.
- The Authpoint native desktop client can fail and need it processes killed at the OS level. At time only a restart can restore functionality. This occurs on about .05% of the connections
- Thought the actual setup is fairly simple the documentation is mediocre.

- WatchGuard AuthPoint can be used for many or all services from WatchGuard appliances.
- The software is useful for companies that have already WatchGuard products in use but also for someone who only wants a fast and secure token for securing web logins.

A good solution with one fatal flaw.

Solid product from solid company
We use WatchGuard AuthPoint for MFA for logging into local Windows desktops and laptops.
- Reliable authentication process between the WatchGuard Cloud and end devices
- Integration to local Active Directory is superb
- WatchGuard Cloud interface is mostly intuitive
- Agent software installation is very straightforward and works the first time
- More flexibility in designating which local AD users participate in MFA or not
- The ability to designate which users have a license and which ones don't
- Easier admin bypass for local desktop login
Integrates to Office 365 for a login provider--has some caveats though.
Integrates with WatchGuard firewalls for MFA on VPN connections.
Simple and Fast.
- Watchguard VPN 2FA.
- Sync between Microsoft Windows Server Active Directory.
- Radius Authentication Sync.
- There can be APIs that support 3rd party message services for Time Password (OTP).
AuthPoint - easy to use, easier to manage
- Set and forget. Once initial setup is done, there's little to nothing that needs fixing or maintaining.
- Onboarding and offboarding users is quick.
- Easy to monitor and troubleshoot but I very rarely ever have to.
- User interface could use some work. While I've gotten used to it, none of my support techs know how to navigate the site and even I stumble around until I get to the control I need.
- *Every* single end-user when they initially set up the app, complains about the app "constantly downloading". I now preemptively tell users that it's not downloading anything and that is the timer for the 6 digit code. Change the interface so it doesn't look like a progress bar.

Secure you VPN with 2fa/mfa - home users need to be protected when accessing corporate resources.
- VPN 2fa/mfa secure login
- Single-Signon thru AuthPoint portal to other cloud apps
- On prem authentications using the AuthPoint MFA app.
- Some of our agings deployed firewalls require additional setups and AuthPoint is not fully baked into - but is not totally wrong in that new features require new hardware at times.
- While the setup process when knowledgeable of it is easy enough, I think some of the steps can pull you thru a little better thru the wizard. Overall though, the online KB and videos are extremely good.
- The MFA token is only sold in a 10 pack. Was wishing it can be purchased in single units as it now means we need to purchase single 3rd party tokens (only when a user does not want to use the free AuthPoint mobile app).
A great and simple solution to secure your users and organisation
- Adds 2FA for login on Windows and MacOS devices.
- Provides SSO options by using SAML.
- Adds a layer of protection to your VPN.
- Integration with VPN without the need for AD
