We performed a comparison between NetIQ Identity Governance and One Identity Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Identity Management (IM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The identity lifecycle support is definitely valuable because we are a complex organization, and there is a lot of onboarding, movement, and offboarding in our organization. We have 31,000 users, and there are a lot of users who are constantly onboarding, offboarding, and moving. So, we need to make sure that these activities are supported. In old times, we used to do everything manually. Everyone was onboarded, offboarded, or moved manually. So, from a business point of view and an economics point of view, identity lifecycle is most valuable. From a security point of view, access review is the most important feature for us."
"For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."
"The best feature in Omada Identity is that it enables us to implement standardized employee life cycle processes so that we don't have to create them ourselves. We can then use the standard workflows. The breadth and scope of the solution’s IGA features also fulfill our requirements."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."
"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."
"Omada Identity Suite has a very powerful workflow engine. It is used for requesting access for approval to everything that's around Access Management and for re-certification purposes."
"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."
"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."
"NetIQ Identity Governance has improved the security of my company."
"This solution has been around for a long time. It has had lots of successful deployments and releases."
"I like the queries and find the catalog to be comparatively powerful."
"When doing a review you can either make manual or automatic fulfillment to immediately apply the manager's decision to the system, like removing or adding new permissions to the user account."
"All three functionalities, access certification, the configuration of duties, and role mining - especially role mining - are very advanced compared with the competition."
"We’re very satisfied with technical support. Usually we get people with the right knowledge who understand the solution very well."
"You can run reports and verify the access each user has. There is a process that runs automatically for access review. It sends an email to the manager and provides a task for the manager to review the users and access. The manager can approve or reject, and then it goes to the application owner for further review. This feature is especially important in large customer environments, as manual review can be challenging."
"I really like the separation of the duties. It is the most ambitious model in the server because you have to create all the different rules, especially business rules. You have to check with the client and set different policies and rules, and then, you to have refine them. You will notice what is bad in the company and where the real problem is."
"Nobody has to put people in AD groups by hand anymore. It goes automatically and that's very good. It's also very flexible. It's quite easy to customize and we have customized it a lot."
"We have seen a slight reduction in help desk calls, as this solution is a self-service product."
"Even without any customization, if you install it, configure it, it's ready... It's very powerful. Without any customization, it starts working."
"This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights."
"It is flexible with APIs and the customizing of a portal."
"The company policies feature is really good because in workflows you can check whether the policies are all working."
"One Identity's biggest benefit is application integration."
"We chose this product for being able to accommodate our requirements. It's very flexible, and it's open to being developed to our requirements."
"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"The account management integration isn't bad, but it isn't plug-and-play like Microsoft Azure. You need some deep development knowledge to set up the connectors."
"When making a process, you should be able to use some coding to do some advanced calculations. The calculations you can currently do are too basic. I would also like some additional script features."
"They haven't really evolved the product to the cloud, so they don't have a cloud solution."
"NetIQ Identity Governance is not flexible. Sometimes, filtering information to provide users with options, such as selecting the application to which they want to request access, can be challenging. It needs to improve application integration as well."
"The product could use more advanced features related to Identity Intelligence."
"The initial setup has room for improvement."
"The solution should provide more connectors in future releases. The solution also should offer more monitoring."
"We need more connectors to cloud applications like AWS."
"With NetIQ, you have to install two or more products. It would be better if we could install one product and have one server and one dashboard."
"Technical support is horrible."
"More integration with SAP and with the internet of things would be good. We also have system devices that we could manage as identities, so that would be a feature to add."
"There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal."
"The web portal can be a bit muggy at times. This is one of the key complaints from our customers."
"The policy and role management features are a bit hard to scale. The whole model for who can do what and how to set it up is not so well-governed for a larger organization. The demos are always shown for a 100 or a 1000 people, but when it is a large number, it is quite difficult to maintain."
"A feature that I would like to see is a mobile app that provides users the ability to make changes or add users to the Active Directory, on the fly."
"There are a few aspects of One Identity Manager's user experience that could be improved."
"Improvements in documentation would be beneficial."
"They should offer more best practices and documentation for every functionality."
