I think it is wonderful why and very practical to reset your AD password anywhere, just have an Internet connection so it becomes practical and valuable.

I think he is wonderful because he avoids the agent or the company needing extra work to carry out our tasks, making us safe and doing extra work without worrying about software failing.

Its ability to use virtually any Active Directory field for identification made it easy for us to move to a process where all hires and terminations only have to happen in our HRM software.

Ease of use for what we need; ability to manage accounts.

We have automatic hires and terminations working perfectly. We are working on changes and expect this to be an ongoing process as the company changes.

I also like the way AIMS handles feeds from other systems. It is easy to use and adapt to a company's unique requirements.

We had no warning it would not work on this version.

Setting up was a little confusing at first. Once I got the hang of it things went smoother.

We no longer have to wait for approvals. Next, with the introduction of a new HRM system, we moved to automating the process of hires, changes and terminations.

By using Avatier AIMS, we have made the task of requesting access significantly easier and quicker. The ability for anyone to be able to approve access via their phones has been a big player in this.

Very easy to use for customers as well as admins. Great addition to any company.

The user interface is simple and easy for most of our computer users.

Ease of use -- users are guided through enrolling and utilizing the features of unlocking account and password changes. Agent software quick and easy to install.

Lots of hidden features. Sometimes its hard to find what you are looking for.

Nothing comes to mind about a downside to the product.

We setup this software 5 years ago and it just works. Our users can reset their own passwords quickly and easily.

We started with using AIMS for self-serve password resets due to the fact that a very significant number of calls to our service desk (about 65%) were taxing our resources.

Overall with the ability to have single sign on was a major benefit for the Service Desk.

Gregg had some ideas on how to correct this. We are very satisfied with Portalguard.

Portalguard is not difficult to install; we had excellent support and informal training from the top-notch support team at Pistolstar, so our rollout was smooth and very successful.

The configuration tools are easy to use and very intuitive.

I guess , I really can't think of anything negative.

PortalGuard is easy to implement and cost effective. It provides an easy to use mechanism for self-service password resets.

This product works reliably with a responsive and intuitive interface for users.

Even better, we were invited to meet with their executive team to give them our feedback (which almost never happens with most vendors).

Studenta no longer have to juggle 3 different usernames and passwords. Now they use one password for everything.

Not only did they listen to our story, they offered additional information to help us better use their product. We could not be more pleased.

It provides SSO as well as password reset for users and the First-Time User experience can be customized to meet your needs. And the cost was very affordable compared to other products.

It is very easy to use and implement. Integration with our system was seamless and easy.

I run into problems sometimes after logging into Portal Guard i will receive a 404 error and have to hit the back button and start over again.

One of the greatest impact for our institution was the self service features of PG. Reset password and unlocking accounts features of self service reduced the number of calls to our helpdesk.

Modifying settings is quite simple. Configuring new applications can be a bit complicated, but again, the support staff are extraordinary and very responsive.

After we implemented the software , we found out that there were some features that we could use and they were missing. We worked with PG's development and they added it those features.

PortalGuard has been a great solution for us in managing password resets for students, faculty and staff.

The recent integration of extended portal features like announcements to PortalGuard is a welcome addition. I hope to see more of this kind of work in future versions.

I have spent the past 8 months testing 2 Factor Authentication solutions. In some way they have all fallen short of my expectations.

Portal Guard has been a great tool and has made it much easier to help other users working from home to manage their passwords.

I highly recommend PortalGuard and the price is very reasonable.

The support is absolutely outstanding. The software works as designed, and is rock solid.

PortalGuard is easy to install, configure, and brand. We are very pleased with PortalGuard and with their excellent customer support.

Have been using this solution for a year and now wish we would have made the change sooner.

Customer support is fantastic along with the sales team. They all work as a team and communication within is strong.

The software itself has been great. Very easy to use, even for our least tech-savvy employees.

It is extremely customizable and integrates with our Active Directory for authentication so that single sign-on is available for all of our integrated services.

This was a good product for the money. It appeared at the right time for us to get a hold on some self service and 2fa issues.

Southwestern Community College District was looking for a self-service password reset program to integrate with Microsoft Active Directory.

I like that once logged into Portal Guard I do not have to login internal sites multiple times during the day.

Don’t know which other password manager software you are currently looking at but forget about it and pick this one.

PortalGuard blew me away with it's ease of use for the end user and quick, easy setup for the administrator. Factor that in with their cost-effective licensing and you have an instant winner.

Support team is great, and the company does listen to your feedback and change requests.
