Duo Security Reviews

Regardless of the technology or platform which are targeting to integrate the multi-factor authentication Duo Security provides the flexibility to integrate with the largely used identity platforms/providers. The use of the app is very easy and convenient with the enablement of biometric authentication. For the authorization process, it takes just one click. The app is that user-friendly. Not like other application available Duo is really easy to use and integrate.

Nothing that I can think of that I like least.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

I like how simple and straightforward this tool is. We have rolled this out for staff to sign in securely to their work devices and adds that little extra layer of security to our organisation.

At times there can be delays on receiving either the code or push notifications which can be an easy to then gain access.

Easy to use and easy to set up and manage users in our environment

Sometimes the password reset options can get stuck in a lop

What I most like about duo security (considering it's application that basically has one purpose with a few different avenues of getting there) is the simplicity. It also is a bit more modern feeling than your email and text authenticators, which is nice. I'd say that this program, if you're looking into authenticating software's, is most likely one of the best choices, next to microsoft's.

I've randomly (very rarely) had my duo logins just removed from the app, and it is a HASSLE to get everything back ESPECIALLY if you are incorporating this into a business. You're basically having to prove duo screwed up to try to get your authenticating account back onto the program, without having it on the program, it's not super fun, but at least it doesn't happen very often, other than that, great program.

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.

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.

The setup after downloading the app was easy.
Notifications work.
Authentication is fast.

I haven't had any problems with this application.

Simple interface, easy to use, helps us be more efficient

Laggy at times, adding new users could be easier to do.

Duo Security makes it super simple to securely sign onto any website or network through a push notification or passcode alert. The system is also easy to use once it is set-up and can be modified as needed.

The set-up takes a little while to complete and the software takes a little while to learn.

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

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.

An easy-to-configure two-factor authentication tool with a simple and clear interface. It can be integrated into an existing environment regardless of platform or OS. It also has logging and monitoring functions.

Sometimes I don't get push messages or I get two at once, which sometimes takes a long time and can be frustrating when you need to access resources quickly.

I like how quick my computer is able to communicate with the app on my smart phone in order to log me into my computer quickly and safely.

It took some knowledge from my IT team in order for me to use the app properly. So some training is needed and it would be nice for a have quick help guide.

The push notification always on time and never fails to be prompted before login

I have not been able to identify any cons on the application

The thing I like the most about Duo Security is the ease of use. You simply download and utilize the app on your phone.

This is simply another MFA application. It seems that different vendors have different preferences when it comes to MFA. I wish this was more consistent.
