### "Symantec VIP review" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *01 August 2018* | Management Consulting
> 
> **Pros**: I like how quietly it works, I nearly never have to use the auto-generated code in order to validate my credentials, I like how simple it is and the way this app displays a very useful menu in a little square.
> 
> **Cons**: the app only gives you 30 seconds to copy the  security code,  when I change my passwords on my OS I also have to update the VIP access and go thru the validation process in order to receive the new code by phone call or SMS, instead of updating it automatically

### "Safe, Reliable, and Secure - Everything You'd Expect and Need" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 January 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Symantec VIP Access allows me to sign into my work accounts and devices no matter where I am in the world.  They are safe, secure, and reliable - everything I require and expect. You can really tell how much effort they put into their user design for customer interface.  I appreciate the little details like the loading animation when a security code changes.
> 
> **Cons**: If you lose your device, the process to unlink the old device and then registering a new device can be tricky - but after following the helpful guides on their website, it was a breeze.
> 
> I wanted a fast and easy way to securely access my accounts through all my devices, and Symantec VIP has built that product.

> 
> **Pros**: Best mobile application and very easy for use for beginners as well as for non technical guys too.&#10;&#10;Mobile UI and accessibility is it five star service and we can relay on it fully. &#10;&#10;In our organization we can access intranet application using Symantec and which is best thing happened with us. It is very helpful and trustworthy.
> 
> **Cons**: Process for registering credential ID at first time. It is bit confusing and user has to enter ID which is exist in application. Symantec should provide guide for this and it is very much needed.
> 
> Earlier for accessing application which comes under intranet was not accessible - we have introduce with this approach which has 2FA and it was very easy job. We have achieved lot of things and remote access to many application internally.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Those application doesn't have SSP enabled we can enable 2fa for this and we can secure our data seamlessly.
