Performance of Duo Across Market Features
Duo Likes & Dislikes
Duo balances strong security with a user-friendly design. The platform integrates smoothly with our existing systems, offers clear visibility into authentication activity, and provides flexible options for enforcing MFA policies. The support and documentation have also been excellent, which has made deployment and troubleshooting much easier.
Read Full ReviewDuo offers multiple user-friendly authentication options, such as push notifications, static passcodes for offline access and Bluetooth-based proximity authentication. These flexible methods have made it easier to gain user acceptance, even among those initially resistant to change.
Read Full ReviewNot much to hate. Just wish there was better accessibility for the Duo Windows Login when prompted with a number challenge. The number is small and users struggle to locate it promptly. It would also help if there were more customizations for the Windows login prompt (like adjusting size or color contrast for accessibility). Lastly, offline login handling could be smoother; users sometimes get confused when there's no clear indication of what to do without an internet connection. I also think it would be helpful to every so often prompt the user for a re-enrollment for offline (make it optional) so it might catch those who get new phones and miss re-enrollment for offline.
Read Full ReviewWe dislike having MFA challenges for every web application accessed. Competing products use session cookies or locally installed clients to allow single MFA for access to multiple systems.
Read Full ReviewWe have not encountered any major issues or user complaints since implementation. In addition, Duo has proven to be reliable, intuitive and seamless making it an essential pillar of our ISO-27001 aligned Information Security Management System.

Clear Authentication Visibility and Support, but Accessibility Needs Attention
Our Duo Care team has been incredibly helpful and responsive to every issue. They've shown great patience throughout our rollout, even as we've taken a slower, more methodical approach to deployment. - Manager50M-1B USDServices (non-Government)Review Source
Cisco Duo Enhances Security With Flexible Multi-Factor Authentication Options
Our overall experience with Cisco Duo has been excellent. We adopted Duo as part of our broader initiative to enhance our cybersecurity posture, specifically in response to a significant increase in attack attempts involving compromised credentials found on the deep web. Duo has played a critical role in mitigating these threats by adding a robust layer of multi-factor authentication (MFA), effectively stopping brute-force and social engineering-based login attempts - Associate Director of Special ProjectsGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source

MFA Setup Is Simple With Versatile API Integration Across Multiple Platforms
An exceedingly simple way of setting up MFA across many platforms, specially with the help of APIs that can integrate with other services - Manager of IT Services<50M USDManufacturingReview Source
Setup Process Is Simple With Quick User Addition and Straightforward Messaging
It is easy to use and set up. It did not take me long to add a new user to the dashboard. I do have the option to add users by CSV file. Also it is very self explanatory when you are sending a new user a message to get their cell phone set up.
