What do you like best about Protectimus?

I secure remote access to my Windows computer with Protectimus two-factor authentication. I appreciate how it's quite user-friendly, even for someone like me who isn't a computer expert. I'm not a programmer or anything, and I managed to set up two-factor authentication by myself in about half an hour. It's a great solution that I would recommend to everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

I couldn't set up the delivery of one-time codes via messaging apps. I couldn't find any instructions, so I had to choose another token. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Protectimus helps me secure access to my Windows computer when I connect remotely. It works effectively, and I appreciate that I can use it for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Protectimus?

What I like most about Protectimus solution for RDP is how easy and straightforward the initial setup was. I didn't expect it to be that simple. Additionally, I find the Telegram bot for OTP delivery incredibly convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

The only downside for me was the time it took to set up the Telegram bot. I had to follow some extra instructions to get it working. Unlike the 2FA app, there’s no automatic bot registration, which added a bit of complexity to the setup process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Protectimus helps secure RDP access with multi-factor authentication, making my remote connections much safer and more reliable. I also love the convenience of using a Telegram bot for OTPs, it fits perfectly into my workflow and makes everything easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I haven’t found anything to dislike. The setup was straightforward, and the token works exactly as it should without any hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Protectimus adds an extra layer of security when I access my account remotely.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

We couldn't update the platform without help from the Protectimus support team. I hope next time we can do updates on our own without needing assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

We secure our SonicWall VPN with the Protectimus on-premise multi-factor authentication solution. Cloud-based MFA services weren't suitable for us due to a security requirement to keep all user data within our infrastructure. That's why we relied solely on an on-premise MFA option, which Protectimus provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Protectimus?

As a user of Protectimus two-factor authentication for Windows, what truly stands out to me is the seamless integration it offers. The setup process was remarkably smooth, even for someone like me who isn't the most tech-savvy. The user-friendly interface and step-by-step guidance made it a breeze to set up two-factor authentication for my Windows account.

A critical aspect that influenced my choice of a 2FA solution for Windows was the availability of offline access through backup codes. This alleviates any concerns I might have about losing access to my laptop when I'm offline.

Understanding that my account is shielded not only by a password but also by an additional layer of protection truly provides me with a sense of security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

I haven't encountered any issues or complaints so far, everything's been smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

I secure my Windows account on my business laptop with Protectimus two-factor authentication when I'm logging in locally or through Remote Desktop Protocol. Besides, I rely on the Protectimus Smart application to generate one-time passwords for Windows logins as well as for various other websites such as MS Teams, Google, Zoho, and more.

What do you like best about Protectimus?

We had specific requirements for 2FA, and Protectimus agreed to customize their on-premise 2FA platform to assist us with integration. There are only a few companies capable of this level of customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

Finding the necessary technical information on their website isn't very straightforward, it's better to reach out to their support right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Protectimus helped us integrate two-factor authentication into a rather complex infrastructure for one of our clients. It wasn't an easy task, but we managed to accomplish it together, and we are very satisfied with the result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Protectimus?

I have been a satisfied user of the Protectimus multi-factor authentication solution for Windows for over 2 years.

I opted for their user-friendly authentication app. Additionally, the latest update introduced a convenient cloud backup feature, further enhancing the overall experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

At first, I had concerns about the absence of backup features for Protectimus' Windows two-factor authentication software and the 2FA app. However, my worries were put to rest when Protectimus later released updates that included the much-needed backup functionality.

What do you like best about Protectimus?

It's compatible with Cisco Switches, and the support team assisted me in setting up MFA. They offer an on-premise platform, which is essential for us since company policy prohibits the use of any cloud security services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Protectimus?

Setting up Protectimus's MFA for Cisco Switches gave me quite a headache. It took several calls with Protectimus support to get everything in order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Protectimus solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were in search of a solution for Cisco Switches with an on-premise authentication server, and Protectimus fits the bill. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's unclear where to get the secrets at first. To obtain the secret keys, you need to contact the support team separately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
