Symantec VIP
Chose Symantec VIP
The Symantec VIP solution has a more easy implementation process, which makes implementation faster.
The Prove Of Concept of the solution presents the best results compared with Duo.
The final price charged was cheaper.
Chose Symantec VIP
Symantec VIP has far fewer glitches than programs such as McAffee. Our company has tried other programs with failure, but now that we've switched to Symantec, our workplace confidence and efficiency has gone up. With ease of set-up and security of 2-factor authentication and …
Chose Symantec VIP
Duo is good but Symantec VIP really takes the cake. Both Symantec VIP and Duo Security are used as a two factor application but Symantec VIP also allows you to use physical tokens. Some of our users prefer those over their phones and we can easily leverage Symantec VIP for that.
Chose Symantec VIP
Symantec VIP was the preferred vendor duo to the flexibility and reliability. It was a very simple implementation and ultimately the best choice for our institution.
Chose Symantec VIP
Symantec VIP is too easy to use for our company. IT sets it up for us and we simply have to request for them to add new devices each time. It is an app and the numbers refresh fairly quickly. Overall, it is a painless integration and simple enough that all the employees can use …
Chose Symantec VIP
We liked the pricing and support structure of Symantec VIP when compared to Azure Active Directory. When stacked up against Duo Security, the name recognition was also about the same (as it was between Symantec and Microsoft). We liked the speed of the mobile implementation …
Chose Symantec VIP
When it comes to Symantec's value offering, it's on par with its competitors with the exception of not offering offline tokens. Other competing products offer offline tokens so this is definitely something they should think about adding. The interface is better than some of its …
Chose Symantec VIP
Symantec VIP compares really well to other alternatives but there is no offline token key. This is a features the competitors are starting to offer which makes a difference in the event the user has forgotten their token or there is an issue with the online verification.
Chose Symantec VIP
VIP access manager is a whole lot more flexible than RSA: with the ability to attach to land lines or sms text messaging, it was definitely the right move.
Chose Symantec VIP
It is a trusted company and the product is easy to use and highly secure. Easy to implement across a large organization.

Hypr is perfect for an office environment where security is paramount. Hypr give staff confidence and is a modern approach to keeping end users secure. Hypr 2fa can't be used when offline. (this is the same for other products in the market though. Hypr has amazing support if you ever need to reach out.

Symantec VIP is well suited for enterprise institutions, like our own, managing a wide range of devices and wanting to provide their users with an extra layer of security. Being able to have 2-factor authentication with a unique pin was key for us and this would be well suited for any organization that holds sensitive information like, in our case, student records. They have great support and getting issues resolved does not take much time, a quick call to support usually straightens issues out.

Cons
  • I'd love to begin using Hypr for everything, including SSO - they may already do this but we haven't branched out yet.
  • Hypr integrated their control center recently - this was a great move.
  • Hosted RADIUS server would be nice instead of us hosting it.

  • Reliability on the app. Most users dislike having the authentication app on their cell phone because if they don't have their cellular device on-hand then they're unable to authenticate.
  • Perhaps a bio-metric enhancement in the near future would take this application to the next level.
