Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard AuthPoint

We use WatchGuard AuthPoint to enable multi-factor authentication for our PCs, as well as for a TOTP authenticator app for third party accounts. WatchGuard AuthPoint is essential for securing our Windows PCs. Windows doesn't offer native Multi-factor authentication, so WatchGuard AuthPoint closes this gap. WatchGuard AuthPoint works with push notifications when offline, or OTP codes when not connected to Wifi.

Pros

  • MFA for Windows PCs
  • One-time password app
  • Offline authentication

Cons

  • Difficulties arise when a PC does not have internet access.
  • Sometimes push notifications don't appear
  • Occasionally asks for auth several times in a row
  • MFA is essential for security. Very positive impact.
  • TOTP consolidated into one app, no nee for another.
  • Preventing breaches is worth tens of thousands of dollars easily.
WatchGuard AuthPoint has significantly improved workforce identity management by reducing password reuse and minimizing password reset requests through strong multifactor authentication and password management tools. It also provides monitoring and remediating compromised credentials found in dark web reports. This ensures faster response and mitigation of identity-related threats. Overall, it simplifies our approach to identity protection and reduces the risk of credential-based attacks.
Previously, we relied on separate solutions for MFA, SSO, and password management, which increased both costs and complexity. We really appreciate WatchGuard AuthPoint's all-in-one bundle that includes access management, password management, and dark web credential monitoring. TCO is quite satisfactory. It’s convenient to manage everything through a single platform, and it eliminates the need for multiple vendor contracts. We are satisfied with the cost, and it definitely saves money while delivering strong security and simplified management.
Total Identity Security has dark web monitoring, and it’s been a great way to stay ahead of potential security issues. Getting alerts when credentials show up in breaches helps us respond quickly and keep our accounts safe. The password manager is solid. Overall, TIS has been a helpful tool, and we’re satisfied with what it’s brought to our security efforts so far. It’s added peace of mind.

Great tool for securing Windows PCs with MFA. Really every organization should be securing their staff PCs with MFA. Temporary one-time password functionality is great. Inevitably you will have numerous third party applications that require Multi-factor-authentication, and this tool helps you manage all of them. There is also a management console where you can monitor compliance and usage.
