We performed a comparison between Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) and Oracle Identity Governance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Fortinet and others in Network Access Control (NAC)."I found the CMDB Direct Connect in Cisco ISE 3.2 the most promising feature for my use case."
"The biggest value of ISE is that it can get so granular with gaming systems, versus IoT and BYOD."
"Visitors can be granted access to the wifi network using their cellphones, notebooks or tablets in a very easy way. The ease of accessibility that anyone can have to the network is very quick and is a big improvement in our network."
"The most valuable features are the NAC and the bundles that are available with Cisco ISE, such as Cisco ACS being integrated."
"SGTs are valuable because they make it easy to enforce policies, instead of pushing them across all the other platforms."
"There are a lot of integrations available with multiple vendors. This has made the solution easier to work with."
"I have found that all of the features are valuable. It is very easy to deploy because we are able to port users directly from Active Directory (AD) and LDAP."
"The most valuable thing in ISE is the adoption of EAP deep that came in [version] 2.7, so we can do authentication based on user and machine certificates in one authentication."
"The proactive controls which can be configured to a granular level allowing the organization the flexibility to meet the changing demands of the workforce."
"The most valuable feature is the set of out-of-the-box connectors."
"Its most valuable feature is its scalability."
"Scalability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten. Oracle Identity Governance is a scalable solution, without a doubt."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"The most important features that have impacted our environment recently are the Single Sign-On solution, role based provisioning, and the automated provisioning of accounts to target systems."
"The most important feature is the connectors. Without the connectors, it can do nothing."
"The most valuable feature is the flexible automation functionality which has optimized our user access privilege management. This has allowed us to create and delete user accounts more accurately and efficiently. This feature has enabled us to save time and resources needed to perform mundane manual tasks."
"Profiling is a really good feature. However, it sometimes is a challenge for customers when there are issues with the remediation part. I would add a built-in remediation solution. That would be a very nice feature."
"The solution could be more secure."
"Segmentation can be improved."
"I don't like the fact that we can see the logs only for 24 hours. Maybe that happens because of the way we set it up."
"I'd like to see the logging be a bit more robust in terms of what it has baked in. If I want to do any in-depth searching, I have to export all the logs to an external platform like Elastic or LogRhythm and then parse through them myself. It would be nice if I could find what I want, when I want it, on the platform itself."
"We would definitely like to see a little bit of an improvement in the web GUI navigation. Some of the things are a little bit hidden in the drop-down menu. If we could get a way to get to those quicker, it'd be much more useful."
"One of the issues that we used to have was with profiling because we're working with a service provider that uses a lot of bring your own devices."
"There is room for improvement in CLI. Most things are done through the GUI, and there aren't many commands or troubleshooting options available compared to other Cisco products like switches and routers."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Identity Governance is that it isn't refreshed or updated as much. The only area that changed on it in the last five years was the GUI. The solution still has the same installation, troubleshooting, and configuration. Oracle Identity Governance is still very complicated when compared to other solutions. It seems that Oracle doesn't focus too much on Oracle Identity Governance in terms of making some improvements to it."
"One of the areas that need some improvement with Oracle specifically is the ease of implementation."
"It would be great if the Oracle Fusion Middleware team worked on making it compatible with other application servers, as it exists in OIM9.x."
"It responds fast but because of the bugs we have already had some major incidents and complete unavailability."
"Pricing for Oracle Identity Governance could be improved. The setup process for the tool could also be faster."
"They need to improve their backup strategy."
"Identity Governance is a difficult tool to work with. You have to input many models to understand what is happening with the logins. The user interface is not so good. And a lot of the features we use aren't available out of the box."
"The solution needs to improve its web interface in the next release."
