AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Okta excels in "Single Sign-on" with a score of 9.6, making it a preferred choice for organizations looking for seamless access management. In contrast, OpenText NetIQ Access Manager, while functional, scores lower at 8.7 for "Local Access," indicating potential limitations in user experience.
- Reviewers mention that Okta's "Multi-Factor Authentication" feature is robust, scoring 9.4, which enhances security significantly. On the other hand, OpenText NetIQ Access Manager's score of 7.8 suggests that its multi-factor capabilities may not be as comprehensive or user-friendly.

- Users on G2 report that Okta's "Smart/Automated Provisioning" feature, with a score of 9.6, streamlines user onboarding and offboarding processes effectively. OpenText NetIQ Access Manager, scoring 8.6 in this area, may not offer the same level of automation, potentially leading to inefficiencies.
- Reviewers say that Okta's "API/Integrations" score of 9.4 indicates strong capabilities for connecting with various applications, which is crucial for modern enterprises. In contrast, OpenText NetIQ Access Manager's lower score of 8.1 suggests it may face challenges in integration flexibility.
