Yubico’s hardware-based authentication provides an exceptional level of security. The YubiKey is easy to use, quick to set up, and works seamlessly across various platforms and services. Its compatibility with multiple authentication protocols like FIDO2, OTP, and WebAuthn makes it highly versatile. Additionally, the offline authentication feature is extremely helpful when working in restricted or no-internet environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only downside is the limited support for some legacy applications that do not integrate with modern authentication standards. Also, for new users, the initial configuration can seem a bit technical. However, once set up, it works flawlessly.
In our organisation we face a lot of issues when we integrate yubikey c series with azue AD connected Devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It makes a strong 2 factor authentication for any app or website. Sinced it's using a physical key, it's highly secure. It's very easy to use with a PC via the USB port or with a mobile with the RFID chip, one tap to access all you 2FA passcodes. I use it everyday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't have any downside I can think of, maybe the fact that you need to always carry it with you, but it's easy to attach it to your keychain. I also bought a second one for backup in case I lose the first one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I recently got on to using Yubikey, it's easy to use and a quick app to install. As a first-time user as well, it was an easy learning curve and is pretty compatible with all devices to use- further enhancing UX Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Honestly, nothing. Its really easy to use, especially in comparison to other apps of MFA like DUO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its a unique software and adds two layers of security that traditional MFAs can't match up to. And despite this its very user-friendly. Virtual support from models like U2F ensures my content is safe and secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While it offers services that other MFA software cant, it also charges a heavy price for these services. Thus investment into Yubico only makes sense if you are part of a large organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using this yubikey physical device since last 6 months when I joined current organization. In my current organization, yubikey is being used as MFA solution which is paired with PingID. As per current client security policy, some phone device model are not allowed to pair with pingid so here in this case, yubikey can be used to authenticate users as multi factor authentication.
The best part I like about yubikey is, it does not require finger print. When paired and asked for MFA, you just need to insert yubikey device in system and touch the yubikey and a random code will be generated from there which will authenticate you. Very easy to use. If anything goes wrong in yubikey configuration we can recreate configuration using yubico manager or yubikey personalization tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In the last section, I mentioned about yubico manager tool. With the help of this tool, we can reset PIN for yubikey and create new configuration as well. One thing I dislike about yubikey is, suppose user forgot yubikey PIN and want to reset the PIN. They installed yubico manager which required admin rights to install and also after opening the application, the sector for yubikey PIN reset also requires admin rights in the system then only users will be able to reset the PIN. The some of the organization does not allow to employees have admin rights on system. It voilates security standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that you can perform two-factor authentication by simply touching a USB key, which is far easier than finding an authenticator code on your phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only real downside to this product is that you need to be extremely careful not to lose your key! Otherwise, it's been fine so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I absolutely love Yubikeys. They're highly versatile, and can be used for so many things. Right now, for my HIPAA clients, I assign one to each user. When they walk up to a workstation, they input the key, and it acts as a smart card. The button on the key also acts as a OTP for two-factor authentication. When they step away, they pull the key out, they get logged out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As of right now, I can't find anything wrong with Yubico and Yubikeys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Yubikey is an amazing little piece of hardware that acts as a two-factor token and provides significant security advantages. You can easily manage multiple keys and integrate it with your own software, or just use it with existing software/services that you already use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The USB-C version doesn't have NFC capabilities, so if you want to use it on a PC with USB-C and on a cell phone with NFC, you have to carry two devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use my Yubikey almost every day for multi-factor authentication. It's super simple to use, easy to use pragmatically, and just provides a great experience for dealing with MFA -- especially when security is important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The keys are a bit pricey (especially if you want them to work with mobile devices). If Yubico wants to get more widespread usage in the consumer market then lowering prices would probably be nice... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
