Microsoft Authenticator Reviews

Keep your Microsoft account safe

Comments: I am just beyond satisfied when it comes to Microsoft authenticator. I totally recommend it to anyone who has a Microsoft account, it will keep your account safe and secure.

Pros:

Before Microsoft authenticator, I relied on just a password, I went to log into my Microsoft account one day and I was hacked, I finally regained access to my account and I immediately downloaded Microsoft authenticator and It has been the best thing ever. It sends notifications straight to my phone if my Microsoft account is attempted to be logged into and if it's not me I just have to hit deny.

Cons:

The interface can be tricky and confusing if you don't know what you're doing.

The real authenticator tool

Comments: The Microsoft Authenticator app is a joy to use. With speedy responses within the app and the auth code only shows once you go into the account which avoids confusion between different account codes. It integrates well with other Microsoft products and its free!

Pros:

The app is free; Integrates well with other Microsoft products; The option of biometric authentication to enter the app is a bonus; it is very easy to use and reliable.

Cons:

The accounts can be buggy, ive had instances where i needed to re-add an account because i stopped getting the codes; Sometimes the codes expire too quickly; The security code is not hidden

Extremely dissappointed

Comments: This authenticator has recently been introduced to our company security. It is difficult and complicated to use, that's of course if you can get it to work properly at all. It has now rendered the majority of our functions useless as no one can access required applications. How on earth anyone can rate it high is beyond me. It constantly puts the user in a never ending loop of asking for the verification number but not opening the box to enter it. This has now become the worst introduction to a workplace I have ever had the misfortune to be a part of. Myself and my colleagues are now even more frustrated and unable to perform tasks. A totally useless addition to a system that was once productive.

A great mobile app for security and convenience!

Comments: An excellent app which is very handy for mobile authentication of secure websites.

Pros:

Microsoft Authenticator is great for the versatility of being able to login to different secure sites from the same mobile app. I use it for our own software in our legal practice as well as for some law related government website. Authenticator is essentially a handy hub for two-factor authentification in one convenient location. The app also works with the Apple Watch which is great.

Cons:

Sometimes I forget to look at the facial recognition after beginning the Authenticator process and this causes a delay but this is my impatience rather than a fault with the app.

Great authenticator to use

Comments: I will go with great so far

Pros:

It is very easy to set it up. You just need your personal or work email ID and bam it will be all set to go. The coolest part of using this software is its instant "Approval asking" which pops up instantly if you try to sign in outside your Wifi network. It lietrally protects you login.

Cons:

The thing which I did not like it requires re-setup if you delete it. I am not a Pro in using computers/softwares but for a layman user, it should be super easy to re-set up.

Great for MFA use

I use this primarily for MFA use. It is super simple and the notifications are great. I never have issues with it.

Sometimes the notifications on the watch are buggy and do not work.

Quick and easy authentication

Pros:

-Offers expanded security -Checks validness of client -Gives as feeling of harmony and security to its clients -Simple to Configure by means of QR Code

Cons:

It has no choice of cloud matching up. Along these lines, assuming you have different PDAs, you should arrangement same things on each advanced mobile phone. This is difficult. It adds inconvenience when you lose your gadget. The main way is to have your reinforcement codes helpful. On account of this explanation, I quit utilizing it.

Microsoft Authenticator: Best authenticator app

Comments: It has been great so far compared to other similar products this is the best

Pros:

The ease of deployment of this app allows you to login to any application linked to your Microsoft work or school account easily and without any problems, other apps need more to to setup but this one is so far the best authentication app I've used.

In order to link your Microsoft account you need to scan a QR Code but in order to do that you have to find the option within the app which makes it a little hard to link it.

Best way to ensure our safe and secure logins

Comments: Microsoft authenticator has made our life easy without having to worry about unwanted logins. Its easy to use and with just one click we can securely login to our accounts. Its must have tool these days due to increased cyber attacks.

Pros:

Microsoft authenticator allows us to add two factor authentication to our login attempts. It works with almost every Office 365 apps, both web based and desktop apps. It works smooth on mobile devices. It is easy to setup with a text login code. It generates an authentication at anytime we want. It also supports push notification login without having to enter any code by just accepting the notification. This way we can ensure the safety of logins.

Cons:

Only flaw is it doesn't have an application for desktops. Otherwise there is nothing to dislike about this near perfect application.

Made my devices one.

Comments: Bliss, I just authenticate fast and I am in. One day let's DNA and a thumb pressure print average.

Pros:

I have a hard time coping with too many devices. It gives me stress but today's world pushes it on me as a involuntary yoke. Microsoft authenticator just had taken the burden out of it all. I really just love the ease and click, a number, a simple add of an account and presto. My problems are gone.

Cons:

They have such a gap between this and google. I really want one day for Microsoft to own google, remove the adds, but adopt the search search engine. It would make my day to make them have no separate password service.

Mobile Application for Multi-Factor Authentication

Comments: Overall, it is an easy to use product that serves the business function of enhanced security around account login to access company assets.

Pros:

I like the convenience of a mobile application, which provides the one-time passwords. I like that I am able to view and manage multiple accounts from one place.

Cons:

I also currently used Okta Verify as a means of MFA for specific client access. Okta Verify offers the option for a push notification, which you can easily 1-click approve, as opposed to manually typing in the code. I do like having this option, which is not provided with MS Authenticator.
