PingID is a cloud-based multi-factor authentication solution for workforce and partner access. It protects applications accessed through single sign-on and supports authentication through mobile push, biometrics, one-time passcodes, authenticator apps, security keys, email, SMS and other configured methods. Administrators can manage authentication policies, devices, user groups, reporting and self-service registration through Ping’s cloud services. It fits organizations securing web applications, VPN access, Windows and Mac logins, SSH and partner environments.

PingID is documented as part of PingOne for Workforce. The Essential plan is listed at $3 per user per month with annual billing and includes centralized SSO, MFA and directory capabilities, no-code identity orchestration, Microsoft environment integration, RADIUS Gateway and LDAP connectivity. The Plus plan is listed at $6 per user per month with annual billing and adds adaptive multi-factor authentication, Microsoft ecosystem integrations and passwordless authentication. The published package pricing is based on an annual contract with a 5,000-user minimum. A 30-day trial is available for PingOne for Workforce.

Its feature set covers common workforce authentication requirements without limiting access to one method: mobile push and approval notifications, TOTP and HOTP OATH tokens, offline passcodes, fingerprint and Face ID authentication, number matching, adaptive policies and device self-service are all listed. Platform support spans web, Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and API access, with integrations for Microsoft Azure AD, Active Directory Federation Services, Windows login, Mac login, SSH, VPN, PingFederate SSO and PingOne SSO. Choose PingID when workforce push MFA, offline authentication and Microsoft-oriented access controls are priorities. Organizations needing a different platform mix or a separately priced standalone PingID plan should review the package structure carefully.
