We use the following criteria to evaluate this product:
Cost considerations
RSA SecurID demands hardware tokens or an appliance plus per-user licences, so entry costs start in the five-figure range while cheaper cloud MFA tools use a simple subscription. Separate fees for cloud authentication, analytics and governance modules raise the price as needs grow, limiting cost predictability. A community comparison showed an RSA three-year bundle near $18 000 versus $12 800 for Duo, underscoring the higher total cost of ownership

Functionality
RSA SecurID offers single sign-on, adaptive multi-factor authentication and automated account provisioning through SCIM or just-in-time methods. Adding the Governance & Lifecycle component gives organizations automated access reviews and risk scoring for compliance needs. The suite omits native privileged-access management, so functionality is strong but stops short of true end-to-end coverage.

Compatibility
RSA SecurID connects directly to Active Directory, LDAP and Azure AD and includes prebuilt connectors for HR apps like Workday. The service relies on open standards such as SAML and OpenID Connect and provides a SCIM client for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID. A documented REST Authentication API enables quick integration with bespoke or legacy systems, keeping extra coding to a minimum

User experience
Employees say the mobile token is easy day-to-day and peer sites score ease-of-use well, yet initial enrollment and admin work often demand extra guidance, with reviews calling the interface dated and documentation hard to navigate, placing overall experience mid-pack.

Customer support
RSA SecurID advertises 24×7 global help with a one-hour response goal for severity-one authentication issues and direct access to engineers trained on the product. A public knowledge base and active user community let customers solve common problems without opening cases. These resources meet the rubric’s “reliable support with <4-hour SLA” bar but do not guarantee the sub-30-minute response expected for the highest score.
