AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Google Authenticator excels in ease of use, with a score of 9.5, making it a favorite for small businesses looking for straightforward multi-factor authentication solutions. In contrast, Entrust Identity as a Service, while still user-friendly, has a slightly lower ease of use score at 9.2, which some users feel may require a bit more training.
- Reviewers mention that Google Authenticator offers a robust mobile app experience, scoring 8.8 for multi-device sync and 8.6 for backup features, which are crucial for users who need reliable access across devices. Entrust Identity as a Service, however, does not emphasize mobile app usability as strongly, leading some users to feel less confident in its mobile capabilities.
- G2 users highlight that Google Authenticator supports a variety of authentication methods, particularly excelling in software token-based authentication with a score of 9.3. Entrust Identity as a Service also supports multiple authentication methods but does not match the same level of user satisfaction in this area, leading to some concerns about flexibility.
- Users on G2 report that Google Authenticator's setup process is exceptionally easy, scoring 9.5, which is particularly beneficial for small businesses with limited IT resources. In contrast, Entrust Identity as a Service, while still manageable, does not achieve the same level of simplicity, which can be a drawback for organizations looking for quick deployment.
- Reviewers mention that Google Authenticator shines in its ability to provide SMS-based and email-based authentication options, scoring 8.3 and 8.0 respectively. Entrust Identity as a Service, while offering similar features, does not receive the same level of praise, with users noting that its SMS and email options could be more intuitive.
- Users say that Google Authenticator's strong focus on small business needs, with 44% of reviews coming from this segment, allows it to cater specifically to their requirements. In contrast, Entrust Identity as a Service is more geared towards enterprise solutions, which may not align as well with the needs of smaller organizations.
