As someone with a background in programming, I have enjoyed the API. Being able to leverage this has allowed me to perform tasks that prior admins in my org were unable to do, as well as replicate other features in Okta that didn't have an exact one-to-one function in the SKUs we use.

1.) The built in reports are basic and getting deeper insights requires APIs or exporting data to external tools. 2.) While the policy engine does feel powerful, I find creating and managing many conditional access rules becomes cumbersome and hard to track. 3.) Sometimes push notifications or biometric logins in Fail or require repeated retries. This can create friction for end users. And cause extra help desk support requests. More granular policy controls would help with this.
