    It is a very compete and solid solution Once it is in place, and you have configured the different settings and policies it is consistent and works well. It does take some time to work the kinks out. We had a Cisco support provider assist us while we stepped through the process of getting it set up.

    Netskope public cloud security solution is best suited for all sizes of organizations as it's a SaaS-based solution with its tenants ( data plain) available in each region. Multi-cloud infrastructure can be integrated using rest API to identify and protect the data and detect any malware in the infra as well.

    Pros
    Cisco
    • We use Cisco Duo with different type of device and application, but we never face any difficulties to integrate Cisco Duo with any of them.
    • We integrated Cisco Duo with some of our active directory and some of the OS are quite old but Cisco Duo works totally fine with them.
    • The end user application is very easy to use. We never had any complain from non tech team members of having trouble of using Cisco Duo.
    • There are several authentication methods available rather than passcode. I personally like the push notification which is always on time and quite fast.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • Documentation is oftentimes missing key information for proper implementation. This is circumvented by reading third-party guides or contacting support for additional details.
    • They do not push Fail-Closed as much as I think they should. Fail-Open is fairly trivial to bypass and it should be made known to the customer during setup how much this will affect overall security.
    • More vendor integration is something that is always craved by administrators. There are so many third-parties to integrate with.

    There are a lot of competing solutions on the market; however, Duo "just works", and there is little to no learning curve for the new members to be acclimated to it. As long as that continues I see it as the preferred option moving forward

    Reliability and Availability
    Cisco
    In the last 5+ years we've been using Duo, there may have been 1 outage that impacted us. We do receive periodic notifications of issues but, for the most part, they impact carriers or functionality that we either don't use, or do not care about.

    We do not see any degradation of performance of the protected applications. There are occasional lags in receiving the push but no show stooppers.

    Support Rating
    Cisco
    I have not needed direct support for Cisco Secure Access by Duo as I have not had a problem with it, but I have full confidence that the support is outstanding. It is now a core component of the corporate technology stack - a problem would mean a serious degradation in the ability of the company to function.

    This was not organized training but the videos that Duo provides to teach you how to install a particular integration are top notch.

    Implementation Rating
    Cisco
    Implementation was straight forward and you can isolate different scenarios in order to test new application setup or add to an existing setup. Gui interface is pretty easy to understand and follow. I had no experience with Duo and still manage to easily set up new policies and rules.

    Alternatives Considered
    Cisco
    I would fully expect a competitor like Okta or any other multifactor mechanic to function pretty similarly, and I hesitate to say duos the best. I think the idea is that it's a simple concept, but it does it well. So I haven't evaluated any myself outside of duo, but I'm also not in the market and I don't feel like we need to go shopping for something else.

    Since most government customer in India has this regulatory to comply that data should not go out of the country if they are going to cloud and this space, Netskope has three tenants here in India to comply and provide the low latency. Netskope public cloud security gives granular control in DLP policy creation.

    So far, the only limits we've encountered were tied to our imagination. Duo's strong list of supported integrations is amazing.
