-----

### "Not a product I would recommend" — 2.0/5

> **Matt** | *7 May 2024* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **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.
> 
> I would change to DUO in a heart beat.  DUO is far superior and even the lower levels of DUO is better than this.
