Our IdentityIQ Dashboard<\/p>\n
Moving on from the features, let's talk about our actual experience with the IdentityIQ dashboard. We accessed our dashboard through the IdentityIQ website. It offered a quick summary of our credit, identity, and score monitoring alerts. It also featured a report of our current scores from the three credit bureaus. To the side, there's a list of all the features in our plan, which we occasionally checked to see in which areas we needed more protection (social network fraud, for instance).<\/p>\n
On the account details page, we easily updated our personal information, password, and security questions as well as managed our plan. The page also gave us easy access to our monthly credit report, monitoring and alerts, and other features to strengthen our identity protection. For example, if we had children (which we don't), we could click on the “family protection” link to add them to our family coverage.<\/p>\n
Overall, the dashboard was easy to use and very intuitive\u2014 on a computer, that is. IdentityIQ lacks a mobile app, so whenever we wanted to check our dashboard on a smartphone, we had to use our mobile browser. It's still fairly easy to use, but the smaller screen made it harder to navigate.<\/p>\n
The Cost of IdentityIQ's Protection<\/p>\n
IdentityIQ's pricing model was easy to understand. As the price increases, so does the number of features and benefits. The Secure Max plan ($29.99 per month), which is what we tested, offers the most features, while the Secure Plan ($6.99 per month) offers only the basics. Here's how the plans stack up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
