Find out what your peers are saying about SailPoint, One Identity, Omada and others in User Provisioning Software."The support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."
"The customer success and support teams have been crucial."
"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."
"The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"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 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."
"Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites."
"The integration effort with the end application is quite straightforward and easy."
"The Verify feature: A push method which customers are going for."
"SAML 2.0."
"OAuth 2 is now the de facto standard for API protection and scoped authorized delegation. IBM TAM now supports OAuth 2 and can act as fully compliant OAuth 2 authorization server."
"The scalability potential is there if a company needs to expand."
"Governance."
"Using the implementation guide, I was able to implement the solution with ease."
"Connector Xpress and Policy Xpress and the new interface."
"I've used it to manage users, create and update, delete users, change passwords, and assign and change rules."
"It has good endpoint support and endpoint connectivity to different versioning endpoints."
"The product’s most valuable feature is flexibility. It can be customized as per the customer’s requirements."
"Self-registration and self-service password management are valuable features. The role modeling feature is also very useful. It allows you to model your enterprise role."
"I am not working with the product, but they have this BI tool for role-based mining, and I think that should be included in the core product rather than an add-on."
"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."
"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."
"The solution should be made more agile for customers to own or configure."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"Omada could make it a bit more convenient to send emails based on events automatically. Having that functionality is critical for us to maintain transparency."
"Looking at their roadmap, they have a broad grasp of the security features which the industry needs."
"The profiling element is incredibly robust, but also equally as complex, it requires an off-site course to be able to understand the context or the plethora of options available."
"The self-service portal needs improvement."
"Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve."
"An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the newer appliance versions for hosting the virtual appliances on AWS will help."
"There are times that it takes too long to generate reports and to run the assessment tools to collect the information."
"A better information display for the approvals within the workflow would give them more information and the ability to comment back on a request as to why they're rejecting it. We've been telling them we'd like this improvement, and we hope to see it."
"Although the capabilities are there, the user interface needs to be redesigned and the opportunities for integration should be improved."
"Provisioning has a dependency on Windows."
"The product's technical support could be better."
"The directory has room for improvement. Also, the dashboards and, in particular, the KPI dashboard that shows the current user’s information needs reworking."
"The development process to create this connector is not as easy as I would like."
"Integration capabilities with other solutions and formats, including JSON, could be improved."
