"Reliable Two-Factor Authentication with Hassle-Free Cross-Device Use"
5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Duo?

I really like how Cisco Duo works very smoothly across devices. It gives me notifications on my phone and while using wearables like my Apple Watch, making it very hassle-free. It's really valuable because I don't need to pull out my phone all the time, especially if I'm in a rush to log in to my computer during classes. The prompt through my Apple Watch is very easy, it's like a split second, and I can just confirm and verify my identity. The setup was very easy, so much so that I don't even remember how it was done. It didn't take me long at all to get it set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trusted, High-Class Security with DUO Push Multi-Factor Authentication"
5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Duo?

It has great security and compliance. It offers multi-factor authentication functionality. There is a user-friendly DUO Push mobile application that we can download on our smartphones, and whenever we need to authenticate on our websites, we can use the notification code to access them. With the DUO Push mobile app, there are also different methods available, such as phone calls, SMS codes, and token functionality. Overall, we can trust the DUO app, and it really helps keep our things secure. They will be having active customer support In case you stuck somewhere. It's easy for use and implementation in any handset it could be IOS or android. I need to use this daily as it's mandatory to authenticate while using the websites.

"Simple and Effective Protection with Cisco Duo"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Duo?

What I like most about Cisco Duo is the push feature, which allows me to receive a notification and simply press the approve button, without having to search for and copy a 6-digit code. Additionally, I love that I can use it from my watch, which allows me to approve access without having to take out my phone, saving me from distractions. It is much faster and safer than using slow text messages or searching for passwords in authentication tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Duo?

Well, it's that if I don't have my phone on hand, or I ran out of battery, or I don't have my watch on hand, well, my smartwatch, then I'm blocked, and I can't access anything. It would be good to have more backup options that are easy to use without having to contact technical support. The process of changing devices is a bit tedious because you have to go back to and if I don't have the IT administrator, it's necessary. See all those issues, so that's what makes it difficult for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Security with Multi-Factor Authentication"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Duo?

I like how easy Cisco Duo is to use and deploy. The push-based authentication is quick and user-friendly, allowing users to approve access with just one tap, which reduces login delays. The deployment integrates easily with existing systems, saving setup time and effort. We value Duo Push the most because it provides fast, secure authentication with minimal user effort, and its easy integration for VPN and application access. The initial setup was very easy, supported by clear documentation and quick integration into our existing environment. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 because it is very easy to use and secure.

What do you dislike about Cisco Duo?

Reporting and troubleshooting could be improved, as deeper visibility into authentication issues would make administration easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Security with Intuitive MFA"
4/5
What do you like best about Cisco Duo?

I use Cisco Duo as our main MFA security feature and appreciate the ability to have users authenticate twice via password and then Duo push/call. I particularly like the push notifications feature, where I can receive a push to accept rather than having to enter a text number and input code. It's convenient not to go looking for codes to enter when I can just accept a push, and it even shows the location and time of the push. Additionally, the initial setup was easy by just scanning a QR code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Duo?

Only downside is if you got no cell service you do not get a chance to authentic yourself with Duo Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
