SpecOps password policy gave us an easy way to fix this by allowing us to create length-based password ageing policies and custom password blacklists. At the time, there was very little else on the market that could do this. > > **Cons**: There's not really much to dislike, to be honest. It's fairly simple. > > The product has been really good. The support we receive is first glass and any issues are dealt with promptly. ----- ### "SpecOps Review" — 4.0/5 > **anthony** | *1 July 2022* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The product interface is very easy to use. The functions are logically grouped. The wizard like interface makes setting policies simple. The checking of breeched passwords is a very important feature. > > **Cons**: The help is inadequate. I'd like a much fuller explanation of the features and how to use them. > > We wanted a password management system that was more flexible than the built in AD password features. SpecOps has provided that flexibility. Also the breech password checking and reporting is a great feature and the main reason we brought the product ----- ### "LA meilleure sécurisation du SI \!" — 5.0/5 > **Raphael** | *7 July 2022* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Les possibilités suivantes : - Expiration variable en fonction de la complexité du mot de passe - Avertissement de l'utilisateur en cas d'utilisation de mot de passe divulgué sur le Net - Phrase secrète (plusieurs mots d'un nombre de caractères minimum séparés par des espaces) - Multiples politiques de mot de passe paramétrables > > **Cons**: - Absence de la langue française dans la console d'administration. > > La politique de sécurité du SI précédente ne permettait une expiration de mot de passe que d'un mois : Mot de passe de 14 caractères minimum (restriction Microsoft) avec 3 types de caractères différents. Avec Specops, nous pouvons augmenter l'expiration du mot de passe en fonction de sa complexité. Les utilisateurs peuvent choisir d'opter pour un mot de passe complexe ou une phrase secrète. Au cas où le mot de passe est présent dans les bases "breached password", impossibilité pour l'utilisateur de le choisir. Couplé à uReset, les outils Specops sont un plus en terme de sécurité du SI ----- ### "Best user feedback on password requirements we could find" — 4.0/5 > **Craig** | *29 August 2024* | Business Supplies & Equipment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: User feedback is very well done and impossible to miss the requirements when a user is setting a new password. This along with showing the user longer or no expiration time options they can choose to use based on password length if the admin sets them up is great. > > **Cons**: The GPO settings when we first installed were a tad confusing and we ended up with users initially seeing extra icons for one of their other services we did not own. Finally figured out this was a policy in the same set of GPO's. I wish they had separate policies for each app rather than tossing them all in one and forcing me to disable items I don't buy. > > Overall, very pleased other than the initial quirks with setup and their support was very responsive at the time. This was done before the Outpost 24 acquisition, so I hope it remains just as good. Once it is installed it is almost entirely hands off. Our users like the feedback and ability to set never expire passwords if they are long enough and not on a breach list. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2062540/specops-password-policy?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2062540/specops-password-policy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
