Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Idira
- No pricing is published anywhere on the product page; every call to action is Request a Demo or a sales contact form
- Endpoint privilege management and agentic AI identity governance are sold as separate solution categories rather than one bundled price, so evaluating total cost requires multiple sales conversations
Authy
- Free consumer app with no paid tier, so there is no vendor-stated enterprise SLA or support plan on the pricing side
- Vendor markets multi-device sync as a core feature, meaning account security depends on cloud-backed codes rather than device-only storage
