We performed a comparison between ForgeRock and Oracle Identity Governance 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 support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."
"Our customers have benefited from Omada Identity automating the certification process. Most of our customers were using manual methods for user access certification. With Omada Identity, you can automate almost all of it, which means that certification now becomes on demand. You don't have to wait for two or three months to execute a certification timeframe. Instead, you can do certifications as often as you want."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."
"The most valuable functionality of the solution for us is that when employees stop working for the municipality, they are automatically disabled in Active Directory. Omada controls that 100 percent. They are disabled for 30 days, and after that time Omada deletes the Active Directory account. The same type of thing happens when we employ a new person. Their information is automatically imported to Omada and they are equipped with the roles and rights so they can do their jobs."
"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."
"The product is easy to set up."
"Their access management solution, OpenAM, is most valuable because it meets the needs of a lot of users."
"We used it to implement multi-factor authentication and to improve our security posture as well as reducing the potential for attacks."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the authentication for the consumers. The integration with other third-party applications is excellent."
"Easy to navigate, handle and manage the applications."
"ForgeRock is an extensive product with many functionalities and capabilities, much more than many other tools combined."
"The support is good and prompt."
"The solution integrates well and it is important for them to keep up with the current trends in the market quickly enough, and they have been doing a good job at it."
"It has a very good response time."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Identity Governance is user lifecycle management. Certification is also a valuable feature of the solution. Oracle Identity Governance allows you to assign who has access to what, which is its basic feature."
"What I like most about Oracle Identity Governance is that it is a very flexible tool. It allows you to do any customization on Java as it is built on Java and you can write any customization code using Java. I also like that Oracle Identity Governance is pretty much stable. In my company, there are a lot of users, so my company prefers this solution."
"Understanding what a customer is using, what they are looking for, and allowing permissions is a challenge. We use the information we get in order to understand the behavior of the customer beyond the security and to understand what they have been doing in the last month. It's a nice way to understand what is attracting the customer and what they are clicking. That could be implemented by using this kind of application."
"The most important feature is the connectors. Without the connectors, it can do nothing."
"Good features are the RBAC and UI customization."
"I am able to request any access rights I need."
"Identifying connector framework for unifying provisioning capabilities from OIM."
"They need to improve the cost for small companies."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"There's a challenge with handling large amounts of data in this system."
"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."
"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"The product's support services in the French language are not free."
"It should have a better user interface. Its flexibility should also be improved. It is not about simplifying; it is more about flexibility. Each company has its own requirements, and ForgeRock can provide more flexibility in terms of the use of existing modules to implement features for the customers."
"In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by limiting the need to do customizations."
"The solution's deployment should be made easier."
"The only problem with ForgeRock is that it is derived from an open-source product, so sometimes it's a bit unstable."
"The solution could improve by adding more advertising and marketing."
"The solution's documentation is not very good, and they do not give more details."
"It should be a little bit easier to implement. It is user-friendly, but there is always scope for improvement."
"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."
"This product currently uses a complex and old implementation. They need a single, user-friendly console for easy configuration. The Active Directory Services (ADS) integration needs improvement. They should offer non-Java coding options and simplify mapping."
"You need full visibility because the suite of features are complex and you have to be clear on what you want to implement."
"They need to improve their backup strategy."
"The user interface experience needs to be improved."
"The product design has some complications for doing some use cases. I would like to see easier onboarding of applications and easier ways to plugin the customization codes."
"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."
"Oracle Identity Governance can capture a lot of loads, it's stable. However, we once had a problem two years ago, but it is now resolved. There are some issues still present, but they're operational. They don't impact the customers. There are some improvements that can be done."
