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."What I like most is that we can always find a solution, and we can also find the cause when something goes wrong. I like that the most because everything is in one way or another traceable. That is what I like most. I like its reliability."
"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"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."
"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 response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"The administrative features and SoD are valuable."
"Omada Identity Suite has a very powerful workflow engine. It is used for requesting access for approval to everything that's around Access Management and for re-certification purposes."
"It is very stable. We have never had any issues with this solution."
"Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is an easy-to-use solution."
"The product enables SSO."
"The product's on-premise version doesn't have recurring costs."
"We have a perpetual license for 2FA."
"FortiAuthenticator is really good software that integrates very well with Fortinet products."
"I appreciate its ability to provide multi-factor authentication, but it's primarily focused on this function."
"It reduces the need for network administrator intervention by allowing the user to perform their own registration and resolve their own password problems and issues."
"The setup process is straightforward."
"Rather than implement a basic SSO, this solution assisted us with setting up two-factor authentication."
"It provides basic automatic user administration and role provisioning to save time."
"What's most valuable in SAP Identity Management is that it's easily an out-of-the-box solution for connectivity with SAP applications. We do not have to do any customizations, and this makes the solution very compatible with most SAP applications. SAP Identity Management is also very user-friendly."
"What I like about SAP Identity Management is that it's stable for experienced users and suitable for access management, not just for SAP accounts, but for Active Directory, including file sharing and process sharing."
"What I found most valuable in SAP Identity Management is process automation. The solution also gives transparency about what is happening and why which I find beneficial. Another feature I found valuable in SAP Identity Management is integration. It has very good integration."
"The most valuable features of SAP Identity Management are business roles and automated user provisioning."
"The most valuable feature is the user experience for managing information."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"The account management integration isn't bad, but it isn't plug-and-play like Microsoft Azure. You need some deep development knowledge to set up the connectors."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"Documentation can be improved. I have already filed a few suggestions to make documentation more clear and more representative of reality."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"The backend is pretty good but the self-service request access screen, the GUI, needs improvement. It's an old-fashioned screen. Also, Omada has reports, but I wouldn't dare show them to the business because they look like they're from 1995. I know they are working on these things and that’s good, because they’re really needed."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"They could expand FortiAuthenticator's capabilities to accommodate a broader range of environments."
"The integration with third-party tools must be better."
"The GUI has some shortcomings and can be made better. The GUI is not great."
"The customization capability of Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is not very flexible."
"We would like to see Linux-based operating systems be able to integrate with FortiAuthenticator to get two-factor authentication running on them. as well. This is a shortcoming that I have faced a few times already."
"The integration with other products, for example, some SAML authentications, would make it more flexible."
"The GUI is on the older side but I'm sure that it will be upgraded soon. It works, but it looks a little dated."
"There is room for improvement in stability and support."
"The pricing could be better."
"A lack of startup connectors to different systems, and could have better connectors for SAP IDM."
"Research and marketing need to be improved."
"I have encountered issues with the host authentication feature."
"One of the areas for improvement in the solution is its user interface which needs to be up-to-date and fancier, in particular, have better visualization in terms of the tabs and buttons. The user interface of SAP Identity Management should be improved based on the latest trends."
"I find SAP Identity Management complicated to use. Maintaining it is also complex."
"It needs to have the SSO for the HANA modules that SAP is releasing."
"What needs improvement in SAP Identity Management is its compatibility with third-party applications. We'd like to get connectors or plugin settings to make it easier to manage other applications, whether SAP or non SAP applications. As SAP Identity Management is not compatible with non SAP applications, some of the clients are looking for other IDM applications such as SalePoint and Saviynt, so this is an issue we've observed in the solution."
