Cons
"I would like to see the provisioning simplified.""What I'd like to see improved in Okta Customer Identity is the process of exporting users. Currently, it lacks this feature, and you have to use a third-party tool to export users from the group. Exporting users should be very easy, though I did notice that Okta Customer Identity is being upgraded from time to time, and I've been seeing much improvement in it compared to the previous years.""There is an access request system that is very limited access to the systems available for end-users. The access request should improve in Okta Customer Identity.""Some limitations in scalability. Each application we work with can be completely different, resulting in highly variable implementation processes.""The product must be provided for free.""Okta has a limitation with directory integrations. If you have multiple Active Directory integrations, the user distinguished name (DN) and the manager DN don't get imported properly into the Okta user profile.""All of the governance functionality and privileged account management could be improved.""The initial setup could be easier to do."

"The automated provisioning only works well with the SAP products and there are some problems with the non-SAP products. Even if it is SAP, if it is a non-ABAP system, it is a little bit problematic.""Only component, I would think the database is inbuilt. So you could use only SAP provided the API to extract. And there is one channel I experienced during the data migration, which is which allow us to create the customer or delete the Customer. And it won't allow for any change. The data migration needs improvement."
