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 most valuable feature is the automatic provisioning and reconciliation of things like the Active Directory groups and memberships."
"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."
"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."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"Its best feature is definitely the process design. It is quite easy and straightforward to design a process."
"We are able to onboard new user accounts much faster by automating the process and standardizing our operations globally. Previously, there were many individual processes and manual admin interactions. We also see a lot of cost savings and benefits because through automation and standardization."
"The product's on-premise version doesn't have recurring costs."
"The initial setup is a valuable point on Fortinet products. Most of the time, putting the theory into practice on the devices is quite friendly and straightforward. As long as you can read English you can find your way around the solution and make it work. This is a high value point on Fortinet - the way everything is laid out in the web UI is user-friendly and quite straightforward. The UI is quite simple."
"We use this product for SSL two-factor authentication and FortiToken management."
"We have a perpetual license for 2FA."
"It keeps track of users and their IPs no matter where they are in the network. When users roam, we don't have to worry about not mapping them to an IP."
"Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is an easy-to-use solution."
"The initial setup of Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is easy."
"It is very stable. We have never had any issues with this solution."
"It is flexible with APIs and the customizing of a portal."
"It is a flexible because it is customizable. It allows you to build anything on top of it."
"It's very easy to roll out."
"One Identity enables us to provide users with permissions for only the roles that they need. We can use segmentation to ensure that users don't have roles that can cause trouble in the business."
"At the time of the onboarding, this is solution that we have interfacing with HR. On the same day an employee is hired, an account is created and available for the manager when the end user arrives. The opposite is true. The moment employment is terminated, the same day everything is disabled, then later deleted."
"The portfolio view simplifies this process, eliminating the need to check through Tableau or other tools."
"The back-end, its capabilities, and workflows are very good."
"With this product, we been able to bring together HR, IT, and lifecycle management. It is very helpful for managing the Joiner/Mover/Leaver process. We also use it for compliance on all the audits which are around."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"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."
"In our organization, all the data is event-driven, which means that if an attribute is changed in the source system, it can be updated within a few seconds in all end-user systems. There is room for improvement in Omada regarding that. Omada is still batch-based for some processes, so sometimes it can take an hour or even four hours before the execution is run and the update is sent."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"We are still on Omada on-prem, but I understand that when Omada is in the cloud, you cannot send an attachment via email. We have some emails with attachments for new employees because we have to explain to them how to register and do their multi-factor authentication. All that information is in the attachment. People have to do that before they are in our system. We cannot give them a link to our Intranet and SharePoint because they do not yet have access. They have to register before that, so I need to send the attachments, but this functionality is not there in the cloud."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"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"
"The integration with third-party tools must be better."
"Integration with some other enterprise applications could be improved."
"I would like to see integration and customization capabilities with the end-user portal to solve authentication issues with diverse implementation scenarios."
"The GUI has some shortcomings and can be made better. The GUI is not great."
"It would be helpful to receive a code by yourself for authentication instead of it registered to a phone."
"Lacks a simplified two-factor authentication process."
"We had issues trying to integrate the keys properly during the initial setup."
"The product must provide 2FA for applications."
"It is a very powerful solution, but when it comes to doing some complex parameterization or authorization, we end up coding. Comparatively, CA solutions require less coding. It is more powerful than the CA solutions, but you end up with coding in VB.Net or C#. Complex parameterization could be better from their side."
"It has problems with performance. This is a very serious issue for us. Other than that, it's really capable. The performance is what is missing. It's really poor."
"I would like to see a lot more integration with our platforms, more on the connector side."
"The initial set up was quite complex. It takes quite some time to get use to this product because of its complexity."
"The customization process should be simplified."
"Some internal structures are in place because of already depreciated functions back from the time when the solution was used for software deployment and as a help desk."
"They could improve the support. Sometimes, you make a service request and don't get an answer. Then, sometimes, we don't get a response that we want, and it's frustrating."
"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."
