My Brave Experience

Love Brave. It's my default browser. Would highly recommend.

PROS

- Does not use up a lot of RAM - Does not cause my laptop's fan to ramp up excessively - No Google integration - Love the award of BAT crypto for browsing - Based on Chromium, can install Google extensions without all the additional Google integrations as previously mentioned.

CONS

Would love to see the user give more control over the arranging of icons on the UI. Some form of decentralized back up for bookmarks and settings.

Reasons for switching to Twilio User Authentication & Identity

Chrome eats up too much RAM; memory hog. Causes laptop fan to rev up constantly. Google is known for their data harvesting practices, so as Chrome is heavily integrated with Google services, they have access to a lot of your data.

Good Alternative

Happy with it in General, good alternative to authenticatiors which are only available on your mobile, if you loose your cell phone, you are in huge trouble getting back access to your accounts, it is not the case here at least,

PROS

What I really like about it is, you can access your MFA from different devices, so for example in case you loose your cell phone, you won't loose your access to your accounts, online Google Authenticator for example

CONS

a bit confusing terms for different passwords

Great software with major setback!

PROS

I like that Authy is available for desktops unlike other more popular solution.

CONS

One major setback for Authy is that it forces obsolete SMS verification, this is a severe security weakness and should be abandoned ASAP.

One of the best authenticator apps that works across devices

My overall experience with Authy is great, since I can sync all my 2nd factor authentication codes across multiple devices with the same account and the security isn't compromised, since I can access it with either biometric login and/or a master password that unlocks all the authentication codes. Despite the simpler interface, Authy has all the features I need on a software of this kind and I can easily recommend it to literally anyone.

PROS

What I like the most about Authy is the fact I can sync all my 2nd factor authentication codes across multiples devices with the same account, which is not a common feature across these apps. I also like the master password feature that protects all my codes available on Authy. The layout is simple and intuitive and the search feature is very practical to find and access the correct authentication codes I'm looking for in that very moment.

CONS

What I like the least about Authy is just the simpler User Interface (UI) and the fact that some logo icons are not available for some programs/softwares/apps. Other than that, I didn't face any issues or concerns while using this software.

My go-to app for Two-Factor Authentication keys!

Authy has been a breeze to implement. The initial setup only requires a mobile number to setup. Once installed, additional devices can be setup from the main/additional devices. This makes it so much easier to have multiple devices in sync without having to deal with login issues because of a dead battery. The automatic backup and sync makes it seamless to use the app hassle-free. It is literally the best 2FA application out there.

PROS

Authy has been a life-saver, saving both time and money while providing great security. The set up and day to day has been seamless. Finger print authentication has changed the game since we first started using it more than half a decade ago. Quite honestly, the easiest 2FA application to set up and use to date!

CONS

We haven't noticed anything go wrong so far. It is a well-developed app that have a great front-end experience while making having a great backend that support the app.

Reasons for switching to Twilio User Authentication & Identity

After losing access to my Google device and resetting the phone, all my 2FA keys were lost forever. That is when I came across Authy. Never looked back again!
