We performed a comparison between IBM Security Identity Governance and Intelligence and SailPoint IdentityIQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two User Provisioning Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature in Omada is the governance. We work with other products and other product vendors, but the sweet spot in the market for Omada is where things are heavy on governance."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic provisioning and reconciliation of things like the Active Directory groups and memberships."
"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."
"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."
"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"Lifecycle management, governance and documentation."

"It is a scalable product."
"Provisioning in multiple environments."
"We like the integration with other systems."
"SailPoint has allowed us to ensure the right people have the right access and to the rights things."
"The access certification feature is valuable."
"The Certification and Provisioning features are most valuable."
"The most powerful feature of the solution is its platform-based approach. Unlike other solutions, this tool offers a high level of customization. It is an open and flexible platform, allowing users to tailor it to their needs. This ability to customize and adapt the solution to individual requirements makes the solution stand out as a powerful product."
"Deployment takes a bit of time, however, once it's done properly, everything becomes very organized and easy to use."
"The comprehensiveness of Omada's out-of-the-box connectors for the applications we use could be better. We are getting a new HR system called Cornerstone for which they do not have an out-of-the-box connector, so we have to take the REST connector and play around with it."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"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."
"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"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."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"I am not working with the product, but they have this BI tool for role-based mining, and I think that should be included in the core product rather than an add-on."
"The solution is a bit pricey for some regions."
"Self service center is not always easy to understand."

"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."
"I think that the onboarding framework could be improved."
"Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time."
"I would like for the next release to have a more user-friendly interface."
"It is too technical. You need really good technical skills in Java and other technologies, which are hard to find. If they can make it easier so that things can be done with a few clicks, it will be great."
"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."
"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."
