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 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."
"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."
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."
"For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."
"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."
"Omada's onboarding features reflect our processes for onboarding new employees well. That is the primary reason we use this solution. We use role-based access control. I'm not sure how much it has improved our security posture, but it's made managing identities more convenient."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"NetIQ Identity Governance has improved the security of my company."
"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."
"We’re very satisfied with technical support. Usually we get people with the right knowledge who understand the solution very well."
"All three functionalities, access certification, the configuration of duties, and role mining - especially role mining - are very advanced compared with the competition."
"I like the queries and find the catalog to be comparatively powerful."
"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."
"This solution has been around for a long time. It has had lots of successful deployments and releases."
"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."
"The Data Importer is a great tool to create an ETL. It generates code which is easy to maintain later without the tool."
"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."
"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."
"One Identity Manager is user-friendly and easy to customize. One Identity's business roles enable me to map company structures for dynamic application provisioning, which is fairly important."
"The most valuable feature of One Identity Manager for me is its Designer tool."
"This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights."
"In terms of what I found most valuable in One Identity Manager, it's the only product where the workflow and the catalog can be configured on roles or by business people. You don't need to know the technology at all to configure that, so this is the product's biggest advantage as well as its strongest feature. One Identity Manager is also business-oriented and IAM administrator-oriented."
"They need to improve the cost for small companies."
"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."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"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."
"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."
"Its flexibility is both a good thing and a bad thing. Because it is very flexible, it also becomes too complex. This is common for most of the products we evaluated. Its scalability should be better. It had a few scalability issues."
"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."
"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."
"We need more connectors to cloud applications like AWS."
"They haven't really evolved the product to the cloud, so they don't have a cloud solution."
"The product could use more advanced features related to Identity Intelligence."
"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."
"The solution should provide more connectors in future releases. The solution also should offer more monitoring."
"The initial setup has room for improvement."
"Technical support is horrible."
"The initial setup was complex."
"One Identity Manager can be made more user-friendly for end users."
"I would like to have more extensive out-of-the-box reports."
"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."
"I would like One Identity Manager to offer an easier way for users to learn to use their new features."
"We fell into that trap of over-customization which made upgrading the product difficult."
"I would like to have more advanced features and reporting added to One Identity Manager."
"The initial setup was complex. It is an extremely complicated thing to replace an entire self-built solution."
