AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Duo Universal is a well-rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Login category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 1 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Duo Universal works
Show full descriptionShow less
The Duo Universal plugin protects against account takeover by augmenting WordPress logins with multi-factor authentication. Adding Duo is easy and can be done in just a few minutes!
By leveraging Duo’s Universal Prompt, authentications can now use passkeys, biometrics and hardware tokens in addition to phone-based authentication methods. This keeps accounts secure if an attacker learns a user’s login credentials and provides flexible authentication options.
Duo is easy to set up and use. With Duo there’s no extra hardware or complicated software to install, just sign up for Duo’s service and install the plugin. Then you can set which user roles you want to enable multi-factor authentication for admins, editors, authors, contributors, and/or subscribers without setting up user accounts, directory synchronization, servers, or hardware. Users can enroll in Duo authentication and add MFA devices to their accounts as they log into the site.
This plugin reaches out to Duo’s MFA cloud service for the configured user roles which provides an additional layer of authentication.
