Vorteile

Duo security mobile app is very convenient since i am working from home and have my phone on me all the time and it is very easy to use the mobile app you just need to open the app and it will show you the one time code for my computer login. And you can also refresh the code anytime if you get it wrong.

Nachteile

For my use it is very convenient and I have not yet got in to anyproblem using the mobile authenticator.

Vorteile

Duo Security is a great product to fill a very specific gap in infrastructure security, specifically for SSH management. For requirements for 2-factor authentication for SSH, Duo is quick to implement

Nachteile

Duo is difficult to enroll users with, which creates a significantly higher administrative overhead than other options. There are also significantly more delays in the Duo pushed-based notification systems (depending on the user and their network, etc.), which can cause issues for users authenticating.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Duo Security

Vorteile

Our company switched Managed Service Providers, and we used DUO. When we switched over, DUO authentication stopped working. We had multiple users who DUO simply stopped working for. We and our MSP were unable to contact DUO support after multiple hours. I did get through to a person who put the phone down and appeared to be watching a video on YouTube in the background for about 10 minutes and then hung up on me. This had a serious negative impact on our business and I'm surprised that we were unable to get anyone to assist at all with such a business critical feature.

Nachteile

That when support is needed you can spend multiple hours on hold without any assistance. When someone does actually pick up the pick up the phone and place it on their desk and do not actually answer the call.

Vorteile

I like how seamless Duo Security integrates into my authentication process. The mobile app makes 2FA easy with a variety of methods to navigate authentication.

Nachteile

I don't have any cons about Duo Security from the end-user perspective. An initial concern was that 2FA would be excessive, but with how integrated mobile devices have become with everyday life, it only takes a few seconds to add an additional layer of security to protect my organization's data.

Vorteile

I liked how easy it was to log in with it, as the notification pops up and works instantly. the app was easy to use once connected

Nachteile

setting up a new device was challenging, for example if you did not have your phone with you bypassing the authentication with another device was not easy.

Vorteile

I like that it is quick to load and easy to use

Nachteile

I dislike that it can be hard to set up if you get a new device

Vorteile

The best thing about Duo Security is its reliability and security. Duo provides great solution for 2FA, it is fast and easy to use.

Nachteile

I did not encounter any issues with Duo Security.

Vorteile

Duo provides a layer of protection that companies need to keep their employees protected. Strong passwords alone are not enough to keep social engineering attacks and credential harvesting schemes at bay. This is why Duo is the product companies need in order to keep themselves protected.

Nachteile

Sometimes setup can be laborious. Users may have a difficult time with adoption, especially those who are resistant to change.

Vorteile

Easy and secure way to protect data.
I like that I can manage it from my phone.

Nachteile

I do not have any negative experiences with Duo Security app.

Vorteile

Duo Security simplifies the implementation of two-factor authentication, enhancing security against unauthorized access. With a user-friendly interface and a variety of authentication methods, it offers flexibility and peace of mind for organizations seeking to bolster their security measures.

Nachteile

Occasional delays in the authentication process can be a minor inconvenience when using Duo Security.

Vorteile

Provides an additional layer of security when logging into servers, firewalls, switches etc when offline MFA security or local administrator accounts. If the internet is detected a simple notification to Approve/Disapprove is set out to the mobile app. If the internet is offline you can use rolling codes to still login whilst maintaining essential security.

Nachteile

The administrative interface can be still confusing when setting up Users and Groups and often links are hidden away in large sections of text. Try setting up RDP and locating the Duo EXE and you'll know what I mean

Vorteile

Easy to use. Love the access to this on my phone. Provides great security measures to avoid unauthorized log in.

Nachteile

Requires multiple log in pushes when changed from different applications within the same program. One verification per program would be nice.

Vorteile

Using Duo security gives me the ease of mind that no one can try to hack my email and data . I know that using this, if someone tries to abuse the information and log in to my accounts, I will immediately notified.

Nachteile

One of the problems is that sometimes, even with choosing the remember for 30 days option, I have to enter the passcode on my phone every time that I want to enter to my accounts.

Vorteile

When working off site, I need Duo to be quick and to be able to get on my computer without waiting.

Nachteile

I havent had any issues. It is amost instant when asking for a push.

Vorteile

Mobile authentication is great, the pop up screen that just require accept once you are login in to the VPN is very efficient and easy to use.

Nachteile

When changing mobile device or phone number associated to the DUO it can be a nightmare doing the self service steps for people that are not computer savvy, within the organization has colleagues that do it very fast and some of them that hard to understand and follow the steps.

Vorteile

The two factor authentication option is easy to use and quick

Nachteile

It can be slow and notifications sometimes don't show up on my phone

Vorteile

As a result of the type of company we run, it is vital to incorporate multi factor authentication. The setup is easy, the platform works most of the time and the customer service is amazing as well.

Nachteile

So far, nothing that I can think of from using for over 1 year.

Vorteile

It was very easy to use for work authentication.

Nachteile

There are no cons with Duo since it was mainly used to log into citrix as an authenticator.

Vorteile

The product is very simple and easy to use. After the one-time setup to any 2fa-enabled website or application, you only copy the access code and you're in. The implementation with Canvas, which Oregon State University requires, is seamless. After inserting the university's login information, a notification is sent to the device of preference. You only have to click a button and you're in. This one-click access is dependent to applications that support it, otherwise a copied code is required.

Nachteile

For mobile application: The only concern is the application doe not have the ability to enable lock, such as FaceID or fingerprint. Therefore, other individuals could access those codes if the phone is unlocked.

Vorteile

Very wasy to use. No much more to say, it´s simple and works very well. It can be integrated with lot of apps.

Nachteile

Sometimes using WIFI networks take some seconds to receive push. I have 1GB optic fiber, don´t think so itcould be due WIFI. Perhaps it´s the handset WIFI module. When I use with mobile data connection it is immediate.

Vorteile

I like the convenience factor most. Some two-factor authentication solutions take some time (entering a code, etc.), but I love how Duo has an Apple Watch widget that allows me to make a single click to authenticate. I also appreciate the simplicity of the UI. I also like the QR code pairing that some sites have to set up the Duo config. It's quick and easy.

Nachteile

I have no complaints, so it's difficult to write about what I like least. If I were forced to make a suggestion, it would be to make the mobile app more visually appealing.

Vorteile

We use Duo for MFA, Desktop security, VPN security and they all work from an employee's mobile device.

Nachteile

Sometimes the connection between the user's mobile device and Duo will unlink which requires IT support intervention - frustrating for the end user.

Vorteile

It makes log in authentication very simple. 1 click and I'm in.

Nachteile

I do not get alerts from Duo when I need to authenticate. I imagine I just have that option turned off and need to look into the settings, however.

Vorteile

Duo is simple to use, user friendly, and does all that is needed for authentication. I work with multiple large organizations that have chosen to use it for their employees. It is easy to pair duo with new organizations as well.

Nachteile

So many authentication apps exist, that it is hard to distinguish between them. Duo works great, but so does basically every other authentication method in the app store.

Vorteile

Duo Security is very user-friendly, and it is used for authentication. It is easy to install and use. We have login either through password or push

Nachteile

Sometimes push will not work properly, and the password will not work if we take more time

Vorteile

Fast, easy to use robust security solution. Numerous options for authentication which are all more secure than first-party options.

Nachteile

Sometimes does not open immediately especially on new deployments

Vorteile

Duo Security will enable your organization to add MFA/2FA into your authentication process. Duo Security has a clean interface, and I was able to easily navigate the various pages. It has a nice app for mobile phones, both Apple iOS and Android. It can produce reports for compliance inquiries.

Nachteile

Duo Security is an expensive product because it is designed for enterprise installations of several thousand users who need an easy integration with the highest levels of security.

Vorteile

Identity is everything,protect it with Duo Security. Its the leading in class of security. Keep things easy for your users but tougher for intruders. Stay protected in a multi factor authentication. If any device tries to access your applications it gives you the chance to verify if it's trustworthy.

Nachteile

Security is everything, I have nothing to say.

Vorteile

I like MFA use in this tool. It is flexible and fast. Customization is given it's place giving the users an adaptive access. After setting up the tool and interfacing, the user has complete control and device visibility. There is scheduled device health check to ensure authentication of our services.

Nachteile

No doubts. Secure and reliable. Offers the most outstanding endpoint visibility and control.

Vorteile

Nice UI
Easy to integrate with security products like cisco ASA
Very cheap to implement if your organisation is looking for MFA
Supports SAML
Supports Radius

Nachteile

I have not found any cons as such as the implementation was for MFA and it worked like a charm.

Vorteile

Helping us login on our vpn since we need this to work

Nachteile

Sometimes the login of Duo doesnt work and it is frustrating

Vorteile

easy to use, most clients were able to sign up easily

Nachteile

clients were unable to have their computer remembered and not have to log in every time, clients complained that the call feature did not work well with phone extensions

Vorteile

The added security benefits and flawless integration with office 365 and other systems. Also this is very easy to manage and troubleshoot issues

Nachteile

Having to reactivate when a user has a new phone but this is an easy process and I don't know if it can be avoided

Vorteile

Duo Security does resolve many issues with sensitive information and secure access, as the approved user is given sole access by having this app on the user's phone.

Nachteile

There are numerous delays in alerts and sometimes it appears that programming bugs cause the app to malfunction, even when using the latest version of the app.

Vorteile

It is quick to use and pops up even on my watch

Nachteile

That I have to do it every time I log in, but no fault of the company

Vorteile

easy to use and handle; cloud management interface; muiple device usable

Nachteile

difficult to replace devices registered, user registered, system registered

Vorteile

Duo Security made it quick and easy to sign into the desktop computer and additional computer programs requiring authentication. It only required a fingerprint rather than typing in a number like other authenticators.

Nachteile

It would prove tedious if I did not have access to that specific phone for any reason, but that's probably the case with all authentication devices.

Vorteile

Easy integration with mobile phones. Multifactor authentication. Single sign on functionality. Takes no time for authentication.

Nachteile

After several years of use, I do not find any weaknesses in the application.

Vorteile

The amount of visibility on user authentications and devices.

Nachteile

Console can be a bit difficult to navigate through when looking at applications/policies.

Vorteile

Duo not only provides 2-factor authentication but also provides security posture checking for a dynamic behaviour of an endpoint.

Nachteile

Duo is purely cloud-based and does not have an on-premise setup.

Vorteile

One thing I really like about Duo Security is that you can secure many things with the app. I mainly use it to log into anything that's school related, but there can another layer of security for other things like social media accounts.

Nachteile

One thing I don't like about Duo Security is how often it tells me to redo the two factor authentication. I get the importance, but it's so annoying when you're in a rush and you see that you need to log in to the Duo Security app to continue. It's even more frustrating when it refuses to connect at times.

Vorteile

Duo security is a well-functioning app for dual authentication.

Nachteile

It’s frustrating to have to verify so frequently.

Vorteile

I like the identity and password management features
It comes with great multi-factor authentication features
It is a great cloud security solution for business

Nachteile

While using Duo Security, there hasn't been any issues.

Vorteile

The mobile app makes MFA less of a pain by speeding up the process by being able to select "approve" rather than receiving SMS codes to tediously type into a website

Nachteile

Can't think of any negatives, it functions fast and exactly how I need it to.

Vorteile

What pushed me into using Duo Security is their trustworthy. It focuses on business protection and solutions leading to an overall best performance. I have enjoyed a user friendly dashboard. Very customizable features with secure multi-factor authentication solution. Deployment went well and didn't consume more time than expected.

Nachteile

With confidence, I salute Duo Security and highly suggest it to anyone. Let it do it for you. Always there for assistance. I have no cons.

Vorteile

Duo Security was fairly easy to setup and our end users took to it well. There are a lot of customizable settings to protect our district data in the best way.

Nachteile

I have not run into any issues with Duo Security as a end user or an administrative user.

Vorteile

We use Duo Security to login to almost all our cloud infrastructure platforms. It is simple and minimum set up is required for someone to get set up and start using. It provides a variety of authentication methods like one-time passwords, push notifications, SMS etc. My favourite authentication method is the approval methods by the mobile phone app. The way it works is that once you input your username and password, a prompt is then sent to your phone with two options, either approve or deny. It is only after selecting Approve that you are signed in. I like this method because it is the easiest to use of all the multi-factor authentication methods available for Duo Security. Another advantage of Duo Security is that it works with quite a number of platforms ranging from desktop services, cloud services and VPNs.Duo Security offers insightful analytics which helps you track the security of your platforms. Login attempts can be monitored, and potential security threats eliminated before they can cause any harm.

Nachteile

Duo Security is very much connectivity and mobile device dependent. This may not be accessible to everyone at any given time. Another limitation of Duo Security is that the mobile application is only accessible through certain phones with a certain a specific android version for Android Mobile Users. There is this one time when the application failed to install in one of my colleagues phone. They had to use their wife's phone for multi-factor authentication whenever they needed to login to a specific remote desktop.

Vorteile

It's the best Two Factor authorization solution. Most convenient as I can use either my smartphone or a USB fob, as the 2nd factor.

Nachteile

Just like any two factor solution it takes much more effort than just a single factor login.
