Convenient Authorization **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2018 **What do you like best about Twilio Verify?** I like that the app comes as a desktop application as well as browser extension for easy access. **What do you dislike about Twilio Verify?** I don't like that I have to click several times to authorize certain sites. I feel that it should be a one click process. Currently, I have to click the Authy icon/app and then click the website that I would like to authenticate which generates a unique password that I then have to enter on the website. I don't like having to switch between screens to complete this process. It would be ideal to remove several of these steps and make it more of a fluid experience. **Recommendations to others considering Twilio Verify:** Consider your options.

Also, it'd be good to get codes direct from the iOS notification rather than having to open up the app. It'd shave off even more time, and it's definitely something to consider! **Recommendations to others considering Twilio Verify:** If you want convenience and peace of mind with your 2factor codes, then switch right away. **What problems is Twilio Verify solving and how is that benefiting you?** Saves having to always have my phone at my side or having to unlock it.

Bulletproof Two-Factor authentication **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** ‭Jeff ‮ E. | Partner, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2016 **What do you like best about Twilio Verify?** When my organization stepped up its security game, I had literally dozens of accounts that needed two-factor authentication. I used Google Authenticator at first, but had the misfortune of switching phones — and losing my authenticator setup — midway through that process. After some investigation, Authy proved much safer: I can use multiple devices for authentication in emergencies, setup is just as simple, and locking out a device when i stop using it is straightforward. **What do you dislike about Twilio Verify?** The actual UX for Authy's iPhone app leaves a lot to be desired. It relies heavily on provider icons (Google, GitHub, Slack, etc) but if you have many accounts with the same provider it takes careful reading and flipping through accounts to find the right one. I have a different slack account with every one of my 10 clients, and even though Authy simplifies it, I'm glad that 2FA isn't required EVERY time I connect. **Recommendations to others considering Twilio Verify:** Definitely better than Google Authenticator, but it has room for improvement. **What problems is Twilio Verify solving and how is that benefiting you?** Increased security through two factor auth, with less risk of catastrophic lock-out when changing phones. ### 11. This should be in everyone's app list **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Security and Investigations | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2017 **What do you like best about Twilio Verify?** I love how all of your tokens are backed up. If you loose or change devices or have multiple devices all of your tokens are safe. This of this as a password manager for your two-factor authorizations. **What do you dislike about Twilio Verify?** There isn't anything. It has always worked flawlessly and has never failed. Changing devices was a breeze. **What problems is Twilio Verify solving and how is that benefiting you?** Solves piece of mind knowing that two-factor authorization is easy to implement and safe that you won't loose control of a account because of the backups. ### 12. Two-factor authentication made easy on multiple devices **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andrew H. | Implementation and Hosting Team Lead, Financial Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2016 **What do you like best about Twilio Verify?** The ability to use two-factor authentication across multiple accounts, on multiple devices, including my laptop and mobile devices. On iOS, it's also possible to add it to the Today screen, where it shows the current values if the phone's unlocked - this makes it even quicker and easier to log into things. **What do you dislike about Twilio Verify?** The fact that, on the iOS Today screen, the current numbers across all accounts can briefly be seen if a user has previously used this screen in unlock mode but subsequently locked it. Whilst the view updates itself to its default locked state quite quickly, I'd still be happier if it didn't show anything by default. **Recommendations to others considering Twilio Verify:** Make sure that you set a master password on the desktop app (Chrome plugin), so that nobody can access it if your machine is compromised. **What problems is Twilio Verify solving and how is that benefiting you?** Making two-factor authentication for business applications and administration roles, such as Microsoft Azure, an easier sell to users, including those without mobile devices.
