Cons
"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple.""The cost can be prohibitive for middle-tier companies.""The UI needs to be more user friendly. More concentration on historical policy violations would be great. In terms of new features, I would like to see artificial intelligence and machine language added.""Competitors are advancing by offering integrated solutions encompassing access and privileged access management in a single unified platform. IdentityIQ's focus has remained primarily on identity and access governance, neglecting to expand its offerings to include these additional functionalities within its existing product. Enhancing their product by incorporating modules for access management, privileged access management, and third-party access governance could address this gap.""The product must improve its support.""SailPoint IdentityIQ needs to improve its customization. It should also incorporate some standardized tools for implementation.""We faced some issues while integrating the solution with a third-party tool.""The user interface could be slightly improved. It could be made simpler and more user-friendly, however, it is good enough right now."

More SailPoint IdentityIQ Cons →

"The solution could improve its development from a user perspective.""I found the initial setup to be very complex.""Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code.""This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box.""The high availability architecture has to be improved.""This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly.""There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation."
