Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We don't have to go in and do a lot of the work that we did before. It may have saved us somewhere in the range of 10 to 30 percent of the time we spent on provisioning access.""The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done.""It has a lot of out-of-the-box features. It is flexible, and there are a lot of possibilities to configure and extend it. It is user-friendly. It has an interface that is end-user or business-user friendly.""The most valuable feature in Omada is the governance. We work with other products and other product vendors, but the sweet spot in the market for Omada is where things are heavy on governance.""I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada.""The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities.""The benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation.""The most valuable feature is the automatic provisioning and reconciliation of things like the Active Directory groups and memberships."

More Omada Identity Pros →

"With the tool in place, you need to hire fewer people to provide access, and you have control over your processes.""RSA Identity Governance and lifecycles are good for the access certification and auditing sections.""The most valuable feature is the security, in particular, the One Time Password support.""Roles, connectors for provisioning and re-accreditation or reviews help greatly to govern user access.""The data collection is excellent and easy to do. It does not require a lot of configuration nor does it require rules to be written like other competitors do."

More RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle Pros →

"IdentityIQ's best features are the hassle-free user experience and security.""Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable.""User provisioning and the role management features are good.""The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good.""Provides good authorization and authentication system functionality.""We like the integration with other systems.""The community is very active and when I had questions about an issue, I was able to find the resources.""It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes."

Cons
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI).""The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up.""I would like more training. As someone who is new to this world, I don't feel that the courses Omada provides are good enough. They should also improve the documentation. It is difficult to learn how to use the solution by yourself""It is not possible to customize reports on Omada Identity.""Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect.""We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes.""Omada Identity has a steep learning curve.""Omada Identity has two main issues that need to be solved or improved the most. One is its setup or installation process because it's complex and cumbersome. I'm talking about the process for on-premises deployment because I've never tried the cloud version of Omada Identity. Setting up the cloud version should be much easier. The second area for improvement in Omada Identity is that it's piggybacking on Microsoft's complex way of having all kinds of add-ons, extensions, or setups, whether small or large, such as the new SQL Server, and it's cumbersome to make sure that everything works. Omada Identity is a complex solution and could still be improved."

More Omada Identity Cons →

"There are scalability issues. This product does not scale very well. It is not a good product for load balancing / active–active architecture.""Technical support in Pakistan can be improved.""If you use the appliance version then it won't handle a huge database volume.""Every connector that you have in the product needs to be custom-built, so there are not a lot of standard connectors available in the product, because of which there are a lot of hidden consultancy costs.""The user interface and workflow need improvement, and more connectors would help.""RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle could improve out-of-the-box customization.""This product is missing a lot of features which other competitors are providing. One of the key features that are missing right now is risk scoring. Additionally, there is not much scope for customization - everything is hard-coded and predefined, so it does not allow the developers to make many modifications."

More RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle Cons →

"There's a lot of customization required to improve the user experience.""The product’s cloud offering could be flexible.""The report functionality and dashboard of the access manager could be improved.""It is too technical. You need really good technical skills in Java and other technologies, which are hard to find. If they can make it easier so that things can be done with a few clicks, it will be great.""It allowed to implement the automated processes when a new employee is hired. It allows to have a main central process for new hires.""Regarding the scope for improvement in the solution, reporting is an area that can be a bit more UI-oriented.""The solution's technical support team's response time and skills need improvement since it is an area where there are shortcomings.""We faced some issues while integrating the solution with a third-party tool."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is too high for SMBs."
  • "Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
  • "The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
  • "It is licensed per managed user per year."
  • "There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
  • "It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
  • "From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."
  • "My client deals directly with the Omada Identity team in terms of licensing. I never look at pricing, so I'm not aware of how much the solution costs, but it's worth the money. Often, when you begin to use Omada Identity and it takes a while to set up, it'll be irreversible, and you'd depend on and focus more on the functionality of the solution, rather than its price tag."
  • More Omada Identity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing varies based on user count/number of modules you need."
  • "We are using the cloud platform, but we don't find it compatible to be served as a multi-tenant platform. This is a large drawback. It becomes expensive because it is then an all-dedicated solution. You have to have a separate tenant for each client, which increases the cost. The overall unit pricing can be less expensive than how it is right now."
  • "I rate the product's price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
  • More RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "SailPoint IIQ is the best of best. That is reflected in the pricing of the solution. The pricing is based on the number of identities."
  • "They are expensive."
  • "The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
  • "SailPoint is higher in price as compared to Saviynt. The initial cost of SailPoint is very high. There are additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
  • "Its price is okay. It provides good value for money. It is subscription-based. You can go for a one-year or three-year subscription."
  • "The price of the solution could improve, it is not priced well for smaller businesses to afford."
  • "It is a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."
  • "You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
