AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
  • Users report that Crowd excels in its ease of installation on server, scoring 9.2, which reviewers mention makes it a straightforward choice for organizations looking to implement identity management quickly. In contrast, Ping Identity, while still strong, has a slightly lower score of 8.9 in this area.
  • Reviewers mention that Ping Identity offers superior authentication options, particularly in Multi-Factor Authentication, where it scores 8.9 compared to Crowd's 8.0. Users on G2 appreciate the variety of methods available, including SMS, voice, and biometric factors, enhancing security for their applications.
  • G2 users highlight Crowd's strong performance in self-service capabilities, with a score of 8.6 for self-registration and self-service, which reviewers say simplifies user management. Ping Identity, while functional, does not match this level of user empowerment, scoring lower in self-service password administration.
  • Users say that Crowd's centralized management features, particularly in policy, user, and role management, are robust, scoring 8.7. In comparison, Ping Identity's administration console received a score of 8.2, indicating that while it is functional, it may not be as user-friendly or comprehensive as Crowd's offerings.
  • Reviewers mention that Ping Identity shines in its federation and SAML support, scoring 9.4 for service provider support, which is crucial for organizations needing seamless integration with third-party services. Crowd, while competent, scores slightly lower at 8.7, indicating a potential gap for users requiring extensive federation capabilities.
  • Users on G2 report that Crowd's scalability is rated at 8.8, making it a solid choice for mid-market companies looking to grow. In contrast, Ping Identity, with a focus on enterprise solutions, also scores well but may not cater as effectively to the unique needs of mid-market users, as indicated by its larger enterprise focus.
