IBM Verify vs. Passly by ID Agent

It is brilliant for use as an identity and access management tool and ensures the safeguarding of our systems and upholds data integrity as a consequence. It was very easy to set up and apart from a straightforward installation, we have found customisation and configuration easy. It was easy to deploy in the cloud after using it previously on premises.

From my experience, Kaseya made a mistake with Passly. It does not work correctly. When it does work it is very delayed causing issues for logging into the system. When Kaseya was contacted they could not find users at all. When they finally found the users they could not edit it needing them to escalate to development to fix accounts.

• MFA authentication - you can verify the users using the mobile app.
• Password repository - We don't have to remember passwords for each app; we only need one for IBM security, which then authenticates us and lets us access the app.
• Sharing access to new users, we just create a new user in IBM and it authenticates and takes care of the user.

• AuthAnvil is simple to use. Whether using an OTP code or push notifications, the application is user-friendly.
• AuthAnvil applications are easy for the end-user to install.
• AuthAnvil is readily available across multiple platforms (Windows, Android, iOS).

• It was a bit overwhelming to implement and was neither obvious nor user-friendly.
• While the product is quite powerful, the documentation left something to be desired if one wants to fully appreciate its capabilities.
• The cost was almost prohibitive, but it was the only product we could find that addressed all the needs of our organization in one place.

Incentivized

• Web interfaces are relatively complex, not entirely ready for end-users
• Token transfers are slightly cumbersome (e.g. moving from hard to soft-token and vice-versa)
• It remains as a separate, local AD-driven solution, independent from external, rising auth platforms (e.g. Azure)

It works flawlessly, i have never faced any major issues with this. It has all the features such as Iam and security management. I think its a good investment and the benefits we reap from this software are worth the price.

While setup and implementation takes work and time, the flexibility and possibilities make up for that in the long run. This is not a product you can just install and run, but if you design and implement your ruleset well, it will save you a lot of work afterwards. Just make sure that the systems you want to use it for have an existing and proven connector.

Simplicity of use combined with price and low system resources.

Throughout the system testing we conducted, we never encountered an issue that wasn't easily solvable. We did find some of the documentation confusing at times, but we overcame this quickly with some speedy support assistance. Implementation into production was a lot smoother following the testing we conducted.

The support team has always been the primary consultation base when we are faced by performance problems. From the deployment stage the team has managed to monitor the operation lifecycle and give best insights based on their observation. It works 24/7 to enhance productive service delivery to clients. The IBM Security Verify Support team has been the main player in the successful performance of this software.

They are very helpful with helping us with any issues. There are a lot of helpful guides online if you get lost. Kaseya is also good about not bugging you with notifications. Kaseya offers easy to access to support options. Overall I have not had to contact them over a lot of issues. The software rarely broke or was down for maintenance.

We conducted a comparison study between IBM Verify and Okta as well as Duo Security before making our selection. IBM Verify emerged as the perfect fit because its superior capability to integrate with our current system environment surpassed competitor security solutions. IBM Verify demonstrated superior reliability through its enterprise-class scalability and fully transparent auditing mechanisms.

We have transitioned our Multi-Factor authentication processes to use either Authy, Duo, or Microsoft Authenticator, depending on the application use-case. We still have some clients using AuthAnvil, but it is no longer our preferred application for MFA. The other offerings in the market fulfill the same requirement with either lower or no additional cost and are easier to manage and more consistent in their performance.

• Providing an additional layer of authentication security, IBM Security Verify helps protect customer data, reduce the risk of fraud, and improve the customer experience.
• Lead to increased customer loyalty, improved customer retention, and better overall customer satisfaction.
• Reduce the cost of fraud prevention, thereby improving the bottom line.

• Using AuthAnvil to log into Kaseya VSA multiple times was definitely a loss in productivity.
• AuthAnvil did provide lots of security for our products because everyone would be deterred by AuthAnvil and Kaseya VSA's labyrinth-like log in process.
