Find out in this report how the two Identity and Access Management as a Service (IDaaS) (IAMaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The Cloud Identity is well advanced in terms of features, applications, and the components that it is offering."
"One of the most useful features was the single sign-on. You can use it as an identity provider or service provider. And you can use their organization unit feature to enable or disable some of the features for a specific group of users."
"I used it as an administrator without implementing it myself. As for valuable aspects or benefits, the significant point is that it's a straightforward, single solution that just works."
"I think the first thing that is great is that it gives you a lot of features, like login, and then vaulted passwords and secure LDAP. It becomes easier for the end customer to leverage all those features without going to a higher SKU of G Suite."
"The tool provides a free service that you can integrate for laptop authentication. You also don’t need a separate Active Directory."
"The most valuable feature is that you can manage users from one central location."
"It's easy to set up."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"This solution is easy to configure."
"The access certification feature is valuable."
"Good life cycle management, segregation of duties, and analytics features."
"What I like most about SailPoint IdentityIQ is that it's simple to use and easy to configure and deploy."
"The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager."
"We like the integration with other systems."
"The basic concept is most valuable. I like how they have designed the solution. They create an Identity Cube, and then they do all the processes and configuration around the Identity Cube."
"It provides a lot of out-of-the-box functionalities. You don't have to do too much custom development like other solutions such as Microsoft or NetIQ. It also has a lot of out-of-the-box connectors for different sources, directories, databases, etc. Its cloud version is working very well, and its pricing is okay. Its value for money is fine for most of the customers. It is also very flexible. They have frequent new releases and patches for fixing errors and things like that."
"If you want to set up some alerts, you don't have much control over the configuration. You have to use their default alerts. And they only provide alerts for certain activities, so you cannot customize those. Monitoring isn't very helpful either."
"The interface could be improved by simplifying it further."
"The pricing for this solution is a little bit higher than AWS and others, which is something that should be improved."
"To improve the product, the integration with third-party products could always be smoother."
"Google Cloud Identify could make the technology used easier to understand as a layman making it more user-friendly."
"In the next release, I would like to see integration with different systems, mainly wireless SIEMS and other analytical systems that we want to introduce."
"The management of external users needs to be introduced in the tool as it is an area of concern in the tool presently."
"They are going ahead and adding a few more things to the Google Cloud premium edition. Their stock management and remote computer management can be improved."
"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."
"Needs to focus on automation wherein provisioning of work can be improved and access certification should be automated without the intervention from a manager for approval."
"It allowed to implement the automated processes when a new employee is hired. It allows to have a main central process for new hires."
"Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time."
"In the past, we had a lot of problems with SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in providing access and provisioning. There were some gaps in the operation of the solution because they were manual rather than automated, and the users and administrators were given access directly via Active Directory, and it wasn't appropriate for us at the time to use. In terms of integration, we could provide a more automated solution after a minimum number of years, but not in the SailPoint IdentityIQ platform, but there were problems in the registration, for example, with putting information inside ADP, but in general, we were able to solve those problems, and after implementing SailPoint IdentityIQ we had increased evaluations."
"We faced some issues while integrating the solution with a third-party tool."
"The product’s cloud offering could be flexible."
"The mover process for this solution could be improved."
