Simple, effective and powerful

Very easy to setup and manage. Once installed it just works with almost zero issues.
Cons:
The portal can be slow sometimes switching between companies.
Auth point Feedback_MFA
Comments: It's good enough while using in the data security platform. I have been using the Auth point for 5 years and it's good to use. It would better if there are any AI features involved in the watchguard cloud portal
Pros:
Strong MFA activities, Fully Cloud management and quick support available from watchguard
Cons:
Only depend on mobile device instead of email security, AI tools to configure & troubleshooting, Complicate while configure the authpoint
Not a product I would recommend
Comments: I would change to DUO in a heart beat. DUO is far superior and even the lower levels of DUO is better than this.
Pros:
It can at least do push notifications.
Cons:
You get horrible reporting if any, limited third party integration, you can't even completely integrate with Azure for two-factor. The portal is horrible. I don't even contact support unless I'm forced to because it sucks. Even your re-sellers, or at least the one I have to use, charge me to work up a quote.
WatchGuard with AuthPoint is an easy to use security solution for smaller companies
Comments: In the past I had Cisco ASA appliances but for my needs the watchguard is much more easier to manage.
Pros:
Easy to install and to manage. It works as expected.
Cons:
My wish is to integrate this functionality into the appliance. The appliance is reachable from external network and it should be possible to manage it without the cloud interaction.
Alternatives Considered:
Authpoint a wonderful mfa solution
Comments: Push notification is slightly inconsistent. The other mfa mediums are consistent.
Pros:
Mfa solution that can fit different products usage
Cons:
At times, the notification doesn’t appear. Have to press the check for notification in the app for the prompt. Migration from phone to phone requires assistance by MSP
