We performed a comparison between Oracle Identity Governance and Symantec Identity Governance and Administration 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."You can make resources. You can import them from Azure or Active Directory and put them in an application. For example, if there is an application that uses a lot of Active Directory groups, you can make the groups available for people. If they need to access that application, you can tell them the resource groups you have for that application. People can do everything by themselves. They do not need anybody else. They can just go to the Omada portal, and they can do it all by themselves. That is terrific."
"For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."
"The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."
"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."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"Its most valuable feature is its scalability."
"The most important feature is the connectors. Without the connectors, it can do nothing."
"The most valuable features in Oracle Identity Governance are identity and access management."
"What I found most useful in Oracle Identity Governance, feature-wise, are provisioning, de-provisioning, and termination. Those features are very good. Oracle Identity Governance can also be easily integrated with non-Oracle products, which I find valuable."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"OIM in my organization has improved its use and dependability, allowing us to pass audit each time."
"Scalability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten. Oracle Identity Governance is a scalable solution, without a doubt."
"Good features are the RBAC and UI customization."
"Out-of-the-box the product has a lot of opportunity for configuration and sophisticated identity management capability."
"It offers a nice price. It's mid-range."
"It's a very useful tool that has improved our client's security, from day one."
"It is easy to use, and does not requires an extensive programming or development background."
"It has improved our user management. It is definitely streamlined."
"There are many valuable features within the solution. The product is easy to customize. It’s also highly secure."
"Word mining and risk campaigns are the most valuable features of this solution."
"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."
"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."
"What I would most like to see added to the product is role management, especially enterprise or business role management, and the processes around that."
"The UI design needs improvement. One or two years ago, Omada changed its user interface to simplify, but the simplification has not really kicked in."
"One thing that we are not so happy about is the user interface. It is a bit dated. I know that they are working on that, but the user interface is quite dated. Currently, it is a little bit difficult to customize the user interface to the need of the business, which is a little bit disappointing. It needs it to be a little bit easier to operate, and it should have a better user interface."
"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 architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."
"It is not possible to customize reports on Omada Identity."
"The solution should be made more agile for customers to own or configure."
"Simplify & add more functionality to Identity Cloud Service (IDCS)."
"The development and the administration side could be a lot more intuitive and easier to use than it currently is, in terms of functionality and what it tries to achieve as a Single Sign-On entity for an enterprise environment."
"OIA needs to improve its governance features."
"I would like to see more segregation managed through Oracle Identity Manager."
"Automation of validation exercises performed by humans over Recon Exceptions generated as a result of an access synchronization event over a user's need for access or not."
"Our issues with the solution have to do with the integration with different applications. It's not easy to connect ICAO to this kind of product. It would be better to work on the extensions of the adapters for this kind of identity management solution in order to not put in the code in the product."
"The cost of this product needs to be reduced."
"The user-friendliness of Oracle Identity Governance can be improved compared to other products."
"The product's technical support could be better."
"The solution is not the best or the fastest available."
"We would like to see integration with analytics. Also, for them to be more efficient regarding discovering and implementing new rules."
"The reporting functions."
"The drawback with the CA Identity Manager is they don't have a connector to HR systems like SAP, or PeopleSoft, or Workday. That's a major drawback with the CA Identity Manager. For that we have to do lots of custom quoting to get data from HR systems. And if they could connect it to GRC systems, that's good to have in an identity product."
"In the next release, there should be provisioning of your certifications."
"Reporting could be improved."
"Symantec is only on-premises, not on the cloud."
