# Which Biometric Authentication platforms have issues with delayed or failed push notifications during critical login moments?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">This one's worth answering honestly rather than defensively: a login moment is exactly when a delayed push notification does the most damage, so it's worth naming where reviewers actually flag this within <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/biometric-authentication">Biometric Authentication platforms</a>.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/cisco-duo/reviews"><strong>Cisco Duo</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Multiple reviewers specifically report that the push prompt arrives with only about 7 seconds to approve before it times out, a genuine complaint even from otherwise satisfied users.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/1password/reviews"><strong>1Password</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Reviewers haven't flagged push notification timing as a recurring issue in the same way, though authentication speed can depend on network conditions, like any push-based system.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/keeper-password-manager/reviews"><strong>Keeper Password Manager</strong></a><strong>:</strong> No specific pattern of push-delay complaints surfaced in reviews, though its zero-trust architecture adds verification steps that could create friction under poor connectivity.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/lastpass/reviews"><strong>LastPass</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Push-based approval depends on reliable connectivity, as with any similar system, though no dominant complaint pattern about notification timing specifically showed up in reviews.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">For anyone who's actually missed a login window because a push notification arrived late, was it a network issue on your end, or did the app itself seem to be the bottleneck?</p>

&lt;p&gt;Honestly this is exactly the kind of specific pain point that&#39;s worth checking recent reviews for directly, since push notification reliability is heavily infrastructure-dependent and can shift over time. That said, push-based MFA (which most &quot;biometric&quot; mobile approval flows piggyback on) is a known friction point across the category, Cisco Duo, RSA SecureID, and 1Password&#39;s authentication flows are all well-rated overall, but push notification delays during network congestion or on certain carriers are a recurring general complaint pattern in this space, not unique to one vendor. I&#39;d specifically search recent reviews for each finalist using terms like &quot;push&quot; or &quot;notification delay&quot; rather than trusting the overall star rating, since that&#39;s a very specific technical complaint that gets buried in an aggregate score. What&#39;s the failure mode you&#39;re most worried about, delayed pushes during peak login times, or pushes that never arrive at all?&lt;/p&gt;
