"Well made with some minor changes to make it more user friendly."

4/5

What do you like best about WatchGuard AuthPoint?

The app is clear, lite and straightforward to use. Transferring tokens is a breeze, and the new ability to add third-party tokens made it so much more enticing to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WatchGuard AuthPoint?

Mine are very minor gripes to have with the app.

The red bar indicating the time leftover for the OTP token.

Many users have called panicked at seeing a red bar progressing. Despite red being Watchguards colour, I can't but think a more neutral colour might've been better

not being able to link my microsoft account to it.

Not being able to organize the tokens how i see fit (let me organize them in folders, maybe even protecting them with different types of security measures, sms, OTP, fingerprint ecc...)

not being able to Customize the layout of the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WatchGuard AuthPoint:

Use the custom names and icons to differentiate between the tokens you'll have to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is WatchGuard AuthPoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

It integrates really well with our firewall system.

It alows me to uinite all my security tokens in one app,

We've deployed the app to over 300 users and other than the first time to show how to use it and to explain that, no, the Red bar isn't something to fear, it's working great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
