  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like best about Cisco Duo is its intuitive mobile App and seamless push-based authentication, which makes secure access fast and user-friendly across all devices and platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cisco Duo's reliance on internet connectivity and its limited offline access can disrupt authentication workflows, especially in bandwidth-constrained environments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cisco Duo solves the critical challenge of unauthorized access by enforcing multi-factor authentication across devices and platforms, helping us prevent phishing, credential theft, and lateral movements. Its seamless integration with cloud sevices and adaptive policies ensures secure, scalable access-reducing risk while improving user experience and operational agility.

Easy to use and secure MFA

  • July 06, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love duo. The best feature is the DUO Push MFA. Some companies partner with duo. When they do this, you do not need a code. You can actually get a push notification and select yes and be authenticated at the touch of a button.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes software has trouble syncing up with their system and you need to close the app and then re-open it to get the correct code. The other issue that is a problem is when you opt for a text message code, they are 7 digits instead of 6 and they can be difficult to remember.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My industry has security regulations imposed by the government to keep my client’s data secure. We are required to use Multi factor authentication in everything we do. Duo is making this easy when it is not an easy task to do.

A simple solution for a complex problem

  • July 03, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Duo was the only solution we found that was cost effective and did what we needed it to do for an MFA type solution. We enabled it as a network validator to our security stack as required by changing regulations.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside so far is the small expense for tokens.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our end users are lot legally allowed to use cellphones in their workspace, and there was no web based solution that would work since it was a network authentication verification that was needed.

Secure ZTNA using MFA.

  • July 02, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cisco Duo's Unified Endpoint Visibility provides a dashboard that displays the security health of devices accessing your applications, ns it is very easy to use. It combines data from all devices, including corporate-owned and BYOD, to offer a comprehensive view of your environment. The unique feature is unified device visibility, device posture assessment without NAC, access control without any third-party tool, and Adaptive Authentication. the most advanced customer support can help at any time is the best advantage. Also, integration with the 3rd party firewall and VPN MFA. The in-depth implementation documentation library is available openly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Duo is part of the SSE and ZTNA bundle, but some users are expecting that the adaptive firewall security feature can run with Cisco DUO, then the most advanced tool can be helpful for cloud-based security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cisco Duo addresses the problem of securing access to applications and data by implementing MFA and device trust verification. This benefits users by providing secure access, reducing the risk of unauthorized access, and enhancing overall security against cyber threats, especially phishing attacks. The key benefit is :
Unauthorized access in the branches or groups.
Devise trusted can log in or access the internal network via VPN.
SSO can be done for the various internal and external application logins.
Central dashboard for the application and access control for the user level.

Best ,reliable 2 factor authentication

  • July 01, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
i like most its user friendly Interface which is easy to manage and it sends an authentication notification as a popup on the mobile screen you don't need to go anywhere thats i like the most
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes its not sending popup notification so we have to open app manually and again thing which is not good is like we have 15 user in a server but we want to secure with duo only 3 user in that case we have to add all 15 user in a duo then add to them in a particular group that's very lengthy and hactic
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
its helps us to secure our system with unauthenticated access and its ensure that if someone have my password then he /she still not access my system,so i am very happy and safe with this

Enhanced Security with Duo's Multi-Factor Authentication

  • July 01, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Implementing Duo within our organization has really helped us become more confident about the security of accessing our data. A few of the many strengths of implementing Duo within our organization are as follows: Duo provides us with a detailed track record of employee's access to the assigned applications. Again, the Duo cloud-based architecture has allowed us to easily scale the solution to meet our growing security needs as per the requirements. Last but not least, Duo Multi-Factor Authentication capabilities have secured our organizations data from unauthorized access.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Duo has really helped us a lot in terms of providing a safeguard, however, we see there could be some areas of improvement such as enhancement in customization options. Again, we faced some challenges in integration with the legacy system which required additional support from the Cisco team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Breadth of services
Product roadmap and future vision
Product functionality and performance
Overall cost
Strong customer focus
