    Very efficient two-step security without paying extra fees.

    Edited: Nov 26 2022

    Summary: Authy has left me impressed with the excellent results it has shown in my real estate company, within our company we use many accounts, we use several social media accounts such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, this platform has helped us protect each of those Accounts, linked within this platform was extremely simple, Also, the most important thing is that these two-step security keys never expire, which is why we have linked these social media accounts within the platform for more than two years, and At no time have we had to link them again, since security is always present. Starting to use this platform was completely easy, the registration process was very simple, we have to enter an email, a password and link a telephone number that will be used to recover the user on some occasions, in addition, I really loved that this platform does not have any type of limit when linking accounts for two-step security, I have been able to link up to more than 20 accounts within these platforms without any type of problem, in addition, there is no subscription to pay and additional fees to use This platform is completely free and offers very efficient two-step security without paying anything.

    Positive: Authy is a platform that I really liked mainly because it has improved the security of each of the accounts that I use in my company, one of the first things that I love about this platform is the availability that it has on various devices, since currently this platform is available both for iOS devices, android devices and also for computers, its availability for computers is amazing as I can have access to two step security using my computer, this feature and availability is not available by almost any authentication system two steps. Also, not only do I like the availability for computers, but also the security that you have in this application for computers, since you have to assign a five-digit pin to lock that two-step security, this way whenever you want your computer you will have to enter that password to access all registered accounts, so you will avoid the use of this platform by any unauthorized person. Another thing that I liked about this platform is how easy it is to register a new account, you can register it using a QR code but you can also use a five-digit code to register this account, the registration process of new account quite simple, and as soon as you register me you can activate that two-step security and start receiving temporary codes.

    Negative: Currently I have not had any type of problem with this two-step authentication platform, at all times I have been able to obtain a quite positive benefit, in addition, this platform has been easy to use, at all times I have been able to register new accounts within this authentication of two steps, and I have always been able to access all these accounts, since it has an excellent user recovery system which requests a phrase to recover the account, that phrase is created when you first register on the platform. I am very happy with the fact that this platform has never given me any type of problem, since in this way I have been able to keep all my personal and work accounts completely secure, the two-step dedication has never been violated within my company Since I have registered the company's telephone number to recover these keys, every time I need to recover access to my account, I must place the phrase that registers with, and receives a code on my phone, it is a very simple recovery process and helps ensure that I never lose access to the registered keys.

    Summary: Overall this is easy, fast, and with a name starting with A it's easy to find on your phone so the process is very rapid and efficient.

    Negative: I don't have anything about this software that I don't like.

    Remarkable experience with a two-step authentication service that has no limits.

    Date: Jun 10 2022

    Summary: Previously, the security of my entire account was affected because they were only protected by a simple password, however, with the use of this service, the real change that the security within my accounts has had, each account has been protected by an encryption key that only I have access to. I am happy to be using this platform currently in my company, I must also highlight that the vast majority of our employees are using it to also protect their social networks and personal accounts, this platform is being used within the marketing, sales, projects, management, corporate sector. A large part of the sectors of our company are using it and everyone is grateful for the great utility that this platform has represented, it weighs very little both for iOS devices and for macOS devices, it is also available for devices such as the Windows operating system, and its weight it is relatively small at about 70 MB. I must emphasize that my general experience has been really good, there are some small things to improve about this platform, as I mentioned previously, a login history has to be added to maintain security on foot, in addition the export of services previously registered within the platform, this would help make this experience even better.

    Positive: When any company is looking for a service that offers two-step authentication, without a doubt Authy is the best option to consider for that type of case. The security of all our computers and the devices we use within our business service is quite important to us, so we decided to implement this service over a year ago in order to protect our account with a truly secure two-step dedication. During our experience, several positive factors were highlighted which made our experience much more complete and that security was always present. The most positive factors that stood out during naturalization were the following: Authy was a service that was quite easy to use, that is a Of the main positive features of this program, its general interface is quite easy to use and this helps to avoid any type of confusion when registering a new service within the platform or to obtain a code from verification, the fact that there is a version for computers, which is capable of protecting all our keys with encryption security, was also really positive. We will define the encryption key when creating our account within the platform, this key it helps that only we can access the two-step security, no other person who uses our computer will be able to access these keys without our permission. It is also important to mention another of the positive things that this platform has is that they allow us to enter a service such as Dropbox, Twitch or Facebook with the simple scanning of a QR code, this is positive because in another platform I have noticed that to link a new service within the platform you have to link a code, a link using a QR code is not allowed, and having this function helps make it easier to enter a new service and that this process only takes a few seconds. I am happy with the general use of this service, I have been able to protect all my social media accounts, also some software accounts and much more.

    Negative: The main disadvantage when using this software is that there is no way to import any type of Key to another device, when you have registered the services within a device and you want to make a change, you will have to link all the services in the new device manually, there is no way to transfer the points this is a very necessary function within this platform, I need a way to transfer all the services registered in my Authy application, to another device, it would help me save time and prevent me from registering all services manually. In addition, another of the things that need to be integrated into this platform is that there is no way to see a login history for each service separately, currently this two-step authentication service only allows the constant generation of security keys , there is no way to see a login history. Having a separate login history for each service would help me to be aware that no intruder can violate my security and access my social networks or private accounts, it would be excellent if this service simply within the two-step authentication to avoid some kind of hacking q my personal keys.

    Works perfectly with low internet speed.

    Date: Apr 19 2022

    Summary: Much of our employees are using Authy. Our main motivation to start using this system is that we needed software capable of adding additional security to all our accounts and the software we are using on our computers, Authy was present during this process and provided innovative results in protection, linking our Authy account with the account to be protected was quite simple, with a single code the link could be made. The Authy Support team was present when we started using this service, providing solutions and ideas so that we could adapt faster to the authentication service.

    In general, Authy is perfect, it has a very good interface that cannot be criticized, it is an App that consumes very little space on the phone, and it does not need a fast internet connection to work perfectly.

    Positive: Authy for me is the best app out there to receive all kinds of 2-Step Verification codes. We have been using this service for almost 2 years and the results have been innovative, the protection of the accounts and the services that we use in our company have improved exponentially, in addition, we make sure that no intruder can access our database without access to two-step verification. The main positive things I have to mention about Authy are:

    1. Migrating access to temporary keys in Authy is completely easy, thanks to the fact that this App forces the user to create an account in order to receive temporary codes, I can migrate the accesses to another phone. On several occasions I have had to sell my phone and buy another, so transferring my Authy data to another phone is completely easy, just link my account to the new device.

    2. The codes in Authy have a duration of 10 seconds for each code, this is something that I like very much since there are other two-step authentication platforms that only have a duration of 5 seconds for each code. With Authy you can write the codes with total calm, since they are durable, 10 seconds is more than enough.

    3. I love being able to protect my Authy App with my fingerprint and facial recognition. Our main phone as a company is used by several people, and Authy helps me keep services and accounts totally secure thanks to facial and fingerprint authentication, I know that no matter how many people access my phone, they will not be able to use my Authy account without my prior consent. authorization.

    Negative: Authy is a complete software, since I started using this software I have not noticed anything but positive things about its general operation, I don't have any negative opinion that I have to mention about this software. Each of the services that can be added in Authy works perfectly, there are no delays in getting codes, there is no temporary interruption of codes and I can access my temporary codes no matter what phone I am on, just use my Authy account. I am happy with the results obtained with Authy, the protection of my accounts has benefited greatly, this software has exceeded my expectations and I have no complaints with its operation or the Authy support team.

    Essential platform to protect multiple accounts with two-step security.

    Date: Nov 08 2022

    Summary: Authy is a fairly effective application, I consider that its use within the business sector has helped a lot so that we can protect the accounts of the entire company, currently and it respects me, we use various social networks to be able to expand our services within the Internet, this application has achieved that we can add extra security to all those social media accounts, plus it's also made it possible to protect the things we use for personal purposes. I feel very happy use the application to protect all my accounts, I consider that it is a fairly simple application to use, it is a presence since it has very few configuration options to protect your account safely from the steps, the configuration process is very Easy for new users. Without a doubt, you would recommend the platform to any good company or person, I believe that it would greatly increase the security within each account and make security unbreakable.

    Positive: Authy is a service that has been tailored to offer us constant security for each of the accounts used for our entire company. The main reason why we started using this software was because it offered us a very good service to cover the security of several accounts simultaneously, and really, it gives us constant security for all our accounts. Next, I will mention the positive things that this platform has.

    1.- one of the main positive things about this platform is regarding its version for computers, there are currently many applications that are only available for mobile devices, but this is not the case, this platform is available for both computers and for mobile devices, it is important to highlight that the version for computers works wonderfully, it has an interface similar to the version for mobile devices, in addition, the difference between both versions is that the version for computers has a security key to be able to access the accounts. Within the application for phones, there is no such key, it is important that this is present in the version for computers since many people constantly access my computer, and it is important for me to protect access to each of my accounts with a password to which only I have access.

    2.- Another of the things that I like about this application is the ease with which you can recover the password from another cell phone to another device. With blue operate a door within this platform, you will be able to save all the accounts, when you walk devices you only have to log in to the corresponding account, you will not have access to all the previously saved keys. If you only want to transfer the security of the steps of several accounts thanks Device number, you only have to generate a code in the original application, and then use that code in the other device, all the accounts associated with security will be transferred immediately, but if you want to use the other step, you can link the Authy account to have access to your keys.

    3.- Third thing that I like about this platform is that the codes in degrees for each of the linked accounts are quite effective with respect to the time they last, noted that each code tomorrow does not have a duration of 15 seconds, I consider that this time is completely beneficial to be able to write down the code by this mind and access the corresponding account, previously used other security software of the steps that only offer me five or 10 seconds to write down the code, it provides more time to write down the code calmly.

    4.- The fourth thing that I loved about this application is that I did not set any type of limit when it came to linking new doors within it. I can link up to more than 10 accounts simultaneously, to access them with two-step security, this application allows me to link up to more than 10 accounts with no problem, currently there is no type of limit on the number of accounts that can get back into Authy, this is great.

    5.- The last thing that left me quite positively impacted about this platform is how easy it is to use and how easy it is to adapt to it, when you use it for the first time, you will have access to each of the steps to follow , the application helps the user to adapt to the general interface. The app has built-in instructions for users, these instructions help the user understand how to register a new account within this app to protect it with two-step security, these instructions are great for new users.

    Negative: Authy has become that main platform to get a security of steps to each of our goals, however, we do not have a few negative things about this application, we consider that these negative things do not change our opinion about this platform, we still consider it to be an application with a lot of potential and very beneficial. I will mention them below.

    1.- One of the main negative things about this application is the design of its interface. Despite how busy I am, but mind you, the interface helps you to quickly access the functions of this application here, I consider that this application should have a much more optimal design within the interface, currently the design it has is quite simple, it is a fairly basic design that catches the attention of users. It would be excellent to be able to modify the design depending on the taste of each user, this would help the user to choose the design they want for their interface within the security of the steps.

    2.- Another of the negative things that this platform has is that there is no type of access history that allows you to view all the logins that have occurred for a specific account. This login history would help a lot as sometimes people close to me access my mobile phone, and having a login history would help me feel more confident that no one has used my Authy app to access my accounts. This application can be used by anyone who has access to my mobile phone, it would be great to be able to view the login history to know exactly if they have accessed my accounts without my authorization.

    Effectiveness when it comes to obtaining a security of the steps for personal or work accounts.

    Edited: Oct 12 2022

    Summary: Authy is a platform that has proven to have a lot of value throughout our company, approximately 500+ employees are using this platform to have two-step security on all the accounts they use for both personal and business purposes. I believe that this platform has been key to maintaining security in each of the accounts that we use for our company, and our company uses many accounts for both software and social networks, so this platform has allowed us to add additional security to each one of those accounts without the need to pay additional fees. I love that this software does not have an additional cost you can use it, it is completely free and allows you to add all the accounts you want without having to pay anything at all. This platform has been good but I think it could improve a bit, it really needs to be implemented and improved to be able to modify the interface or the way in which it displays the registered accounts for the security of the steps, as I mentioned previously this would help the comfort of the users to be greatly benefited. I totally loved the platform, it is quite easy to use and also quite easy to install on any type of device or computer.

    Positive: Authy is an amazing piece of software that helps you have two step security for any type of account you want to link, the way this platform provides instant security to all types of accounts is amazing, plus there is no type of limit when you want to link multiple accounts. One of the main positive things that this platform has is that you do not have to create any type of account to use it, when using this platform on a device, and linking several accounts to it, a Token will be generated, that Token will be used so that you can transfer the accounts registered in 2FA to any other device. Using this function is quite beneficial for any user, since if at any time your mobile device is damaged and you have this code saved, you can insert the code in any other device and have access to the security of the steps of the accounts that you have previously linked. Another of the characteristics that I like about this platform is the availability that it has when it comes to working on any device or operating system, I have noticed that it is also available for both Linux operating systems and macOS and Windows operating systems, this helps You can use step security on any of your accounts without having a mobile device. I love how easy it is to use this platform and also how easy it is to link a new account to it, linked to being 10+ accounts for security the steps and it has been a smooth process every time.

    Negative: One of the main problems that presides over this platform is the lack of availability when it comes to customizing the interface of the platform or the way in which you can view the registered accounts, within this platform all the registered accounts are shown in the form of list, And really this way of seeing all the registered accounts is not at all uncomfortable, however, it would be perfect if the user could modify the way in which he visualizes or organizes all the registered accounts, since this would give the user more freedom to modify its general interface within the platform and have a much more comfortable display. Another of the negative things that this platform has is the amount of time available to register a new code within an account, that means that every time you generate an automated code within one of the registered accounts, you will have to quickly write it down in the account you want to access, since a code will be generated automatically and you will lose the previous code, the approximate time to write it down is 10 seconds, it seems to me that it is a fairly limited time.

    Efficiency in linking new accounts and obtaining a two-step password.

    Date: Aug 22 2022

    Summary: Authy is a very functional service for any type of company, we have been using this software for more than a year within our project sector, and we have obtained innovative results since we have protected the project software accounts, this platform has been key to protect our account with a fairly accessible two-step security, using the application for mobile devices and pressure for computers. The quality and accessibility of having this platform is impressive, at all times I have been able to access my passwords and generate a two-step password to access my accounts, this stage has never given me any type of error when it comes to generate a temporary key, I have always had a fairly complete experience which has helped me access all the accounts registered within this platform. As I mentioned pega mente, I use this application for personal and work environments, and the results have been the same, I am satisfied with everything I have obtained thanks to this platform, I recommend it without a doubt for any type of company.

    Positive: Authy is a fantastic service to perfect the security of each of your accounts, whether I'm on personal accounts or work sources, its ability to protect multiple accounts simultaneously is what makes it one of the best two-step authentication services today , I love the security mode that this platform has and the accessibility that it has in the various devices, the things that I liked the most about it are:

    1.- It has an excellent application for computers, this application is quite light when it comes to downloading and installing it, in addition to this application it will allow you to have access to all your passwords immediately, obviously this application has a security password, This key must be used every time you go to access your accounts, every time you need to generate a two-step code you must use this key to access the application. The application for computers is quite good and helps you to protect your accounts without using a mobile device.

    2.- The time that each code lasts to change automatically is quite good, it lasts approximately 30 seconds so that the code changes immediately and a new code is generated for access to a specific account, I consider that 30 seconds is a fairly adequate type so that anyone can enter a specific account.

    3.- The linking of each account within this platform is also a simple process and I love it because I can only link the accounts by scanning the QR code, however, when linking an account in the computer version you must use a unique code that will be entered into the platform will be able to link the corresponding account. to link an account with a fairly simple QR code and speeds up the linking process.

    4.- I also love the fact that I can link various accounts without any type of limit within this platform, within my company and within my personal sphere I use several accounts and for me it is a total pleasure to link each one of them within that platform without having to have any kind of limit within it, it's really impressive and helps me get two-step security for all my accounts at the same time.

    Negative: Authy is a platform that has many positive things, it offers quite good tools to provide two-step security to any type of account that you are going to link, however, it also helps negative features about this software that are necessary to mention, these are :

    1.- The interface within this platform is quite simple, you can see that the general interface has a white background and is quite simple for all users, this is positive for some users, because the simplicity of the interface It helps you to move quickly within it, however, it would be excellent if this platform allows users to modify the general design or interface of the application, this would help users feel much more comfortable using this authentication service. Two steps. I would love to be able to modify the interface of the general platform, I consider that it is a very simple interface and that it should be customizable.

    2.- Another thing that I don't like about this platform is that you can't recover the passwords that you have previously registered on your mobile device, for example, if at some point your cell phone was damaged and you didn't have the password, it is registered. , the only way to generate a new key is using the phone number that you previously registered before registering those services, in this way you will be able to link the accounts again within the platform, but you cannot recover all the keys with just one button, you must register them again and manually.
