    Passwordless biometrics have reduced help desk tickets and improve secure employee onboarding

    Reviewed on Jun 05, 2026
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use case for 1Kosmos BlockID  is for authentication. Before 1Kosmos BlockID , we were using password authentication. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, we transitioned to passwordless authentication, which includes face unlock and fingerprint authentication through 1Kosmos BlockID.

    1Kosmos BlockID is used for employee login using passkeys or FIDO2 authentication instead of passwords or security questions. It also helps in customer identification and identity verification by uploading IDs, taking selfies, and performing live detection to confirm that users are real.

    What is most valuable?

    The transition to 1Kosmos BlockID has improved our workflow and reduced the tickets raised on a daily basis. Before implementing it, several tickets were raised every day for password resets or forgotten passwords. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, all these issues were resolved.

    1Kosmos BlockID has impacted my organization positively because we previously used password authentication where anyone could easily forget their password. Additionally, hackers could compromise accounts using passwords. After using 1Kosmos BlockID, these problems were resolved.

    The best features that 1Kosmos BlockID offers are passwordless authentication, phishing-resistant authentication so that no one can steal OTPs, biometric authentication with live detection, and a decentralized identity wallet that allows users to securely store verified credentials. Self-service account recovery is one of the biggest operational advantages because users can verify their identity and recover access themselves instead of calling IT.

    The features of 1Kosmos BlockID that stand out in day-to-day use for business leaders are reduced help desk costs, fewer password-related issues, lower fraud risk, faster onboarding, and reduced branch posers.

    What needs improvement?

    1Kosmos BlockID can be improved by making the onboarding flows faster, improving document scanning capabilities, supporting more languages, and providing better guidance during selfie or liveness checks.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for the last two years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    1Kosmos BlockID is very stable in my experience.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    1Kosmos BlockID is scalable according to user requirements.

    How are customer service and support?

    I have not used customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID directly, but my team has used it and found them to be very helpful, kind, and timely in their support. I can rate the customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID a 7 to 8 based on my team's feedback, even though I have not used it myself.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    Before 1Kosmos BlockID, we were using only password authentication, which is why we moved to 1Kosmos BlockID.

    What was our ROI?

    I have seen a return on investment with 1Kosmos BlockID because it has saved time. Before using 1Kosmos BlockID, staff were required to resolve tickets raised for password issues. After implementing it, there is no longer a requirement for personnel to handle these issues because it is a passwordless process, which is very helpful for us.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Regarding 1Kosmos BlockID's pricing, setup cost, and licensing, it is cost-effective. While it is expensive according to our initial expectations, it is very helpful because investing in a tool that helps our organization from a security point of view provides significant value.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Before choosing 1Kosmos BlockID, we evaluated other options.

    What other advice do I have?

    Regarding 1Kosmos BlockID's governance and security, traditional IAM  systems often create accounts based on HR or admin requests without verifying the person's real-world identity. With 1Kosmos BlockID, government ID verification, biometric verification, liveness detection, and identity proofing are possible, ensuring that accounts belong to real people. This is very helpful and prevents hackers from easily compromising accounts since it is passwordless.

    Regarding accuracy, 1Kosmos BlockID uses government ID document verification, facial matching, biometric comparison, and liveness detection to check if IDs are genuine and verify that the person presenting the ID is the correct individual and physically present. It is very reliable because no one can create false identities during the verification process.

    I advise others looking into using 1Kosmos BlockID to definitely use it because it helps significantly from a security perspective. I would rate this product an 8 out of 10.

    Facial recognition at our building gate has improved access control and saves time and budget

    Reviewed on May 15, 2026
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use for 1Kosmos BlockID  was a project in which we had to develop a facial recognition system for another company at the gate of their building. After the facial recognition was completed, we encrypted all of that data and stored it into a database where it was possible to access and review who entered the building.

    What is most valuable?

    In my experience with 1Kosmos BlockID , the system was very accurate, with facial recognition working correctly approximately 99% of the time, and the platform is very user-friendly.

    The user-friendly aspect of 1Kosmos BlockID is straightforward enough for any user and was very handy for finance and HR departments, and it is not necessary to be a tech person to operate it.

    Regarding the metrics with 1Kosmos BlockID, I have to say that we saved 80% of the allocation budget for this project, and the time saved was at least 40%.

    What needs improvement?

    1Kosmos BlockID is fine as it is. However, it could potentially reach a full 100% accuracy rate for facial recognition.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for at least six months.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    1Kosmos BlockID is stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Scalability for 1Kosmos BlockID is very easy to manage.

    How are customer service and support?

    The customer support for 1Kosmos BlockID is good.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    This was the first time I used a solution like 1Kosmos BlockID. I did not evaluate other solutions before choosing 1Kosmos BlockID.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Based on my experience, the pricing of 1Kosmos BlockID is very affordable, and the licensing is very long in terms of duration.

    What other advice do I have?

    There is no specific outcome or changes with 1Kosmos BlockID to report, but because this is the first time I have used a tool like this, I cannot make comparisons. I would like to give the advice regarding 1Kosmos BlockID to not dive deep into the use of this product, as it is very easy to use. I give this review a rating of 9 out of 10.

    Passwordless workflows have reduced credential overhead and now simplify secure user access

    Reviewed on May 15, 2026
    Review from a verified AWS customer

    What is our primary use case?

    1Kosmos BlockID  is primarily used for password verification and passwordless authentication use cases.

    A specific use case and one of the primary day-to-day uses for 1Kosmos BlockID  is passwordless authentication for internal applications and secure access workflows. It helps streamline authentication while reducing dependency on traditional passwordless methods, lowering the operational overhead and related credential management.

    Another use case is strong identity verification and decentralized identity management, especially for organizations looking to strengthen authentication workflows while simplifying things for users.

    How has it helped my organization?

    1Kosmos BlockID has a positive impact on my organization mainly from both a security and operational efficiency standpoint. The passwordless authentication, its primary approach, helped reduce password-related issues, support overhead, and team issues, especially around credential resets and account access problems. It also improved the overall authentication experience for users and strengthened identity and access. From an operational perspective, onboarding authentication workflows became more streamlined, which helped save time for both users and support teams.

    While I do not have exact metrics available because we did not notice a visible reduction of password-related support requirements, from a day-to-day operational perspective, 1Kosmos BlockID helped us save time for both users and support teams, simplifying access workflows and reducing the dependency on both manual and credential recovery processes.

    What is most valuable?

    1Kosmos BlockID features help to improve both security and user experience by reducing the dependency on traditional passwords. The platform is also useful from an operational perspective.

    One of the areas I found valuable with decentralized identity management was the strong identity verification capability. It added an additional layer of trusted authentication where the user has completed the onboarding process, especially for securing applications, accessibility, and account validation.

    What needs improvement?

    The onboarding and initial configuration experience with 1Kosmos BlockID could be improved, especially in larger enterprise environments with multiple integration authentication rules. There is also room for improvement around reporting customization and administrative visibility, which would help security teams get more tailored insights based on their requirements.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using 1Kosmos BlockID for a little over a year.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    1Kosmos BlockID stability is solid. I did not notice any issues.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Regarding the scalability of 1Kosmos BlockID, we never encountered anything related to resource consumption with this product.

    What was our ROI?

    1Kosmos BlockID provides return on investment.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would strongly recommend 1Kosmos BlockID. 1Kosmos BlockID provides strong passwordless authentication and improves the user authentication experience. It also helps reduce the overhead related to credential management. I rate 1Kosmos BlockID as an 8 out of 10. The reason for my rating of 8 out of 10 is simple. There are still some areas for improvement, such as the onboarding and reporting flexibility that I mentioned, but overall, the platform is beneficial for my environment.
