"IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager is a good solution. It's both stable and scalable."
"The most valuable features of NetIQ Access Manager are SSO and Multi-Factor Authentication."
"The features that we have found most valuable with NetIQ Access Manager are its single sign-on and two factor two second factor database."
"The single sign-on feature is excellent."
"It's very easy to integrate with applications."
"There are lots of options to customize the solution to your needs."
"It is reliable."
"Symantec Siteminder Is both scalable and stable."
"The solution is easy to use for our managers."
"You can quickly deploy the entire product with a basic config within couple of hours."
"All of our applications get a point, click, and you are in, while we increase security at the same time."
"I liked the debugging part. There are only two files (trace file and log file) that you need to look into while performing debugging, and the logs give you the exact info on where and what needs to be fixed."
"Federation is valuable, for sure, because we have a lot of third-party vendors that we need to integrate with, and this is a turnkey solution in some ways."
"It's quite scalable."
"It would be better if the administration and configurations were more straightforward. The architectural level is also quite complex."
"Having the ability to easily extract and view and compare and version control configurations would be ideal."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the security of the infrastructure and the server and the working networking device."
"The application portal could be improved with more options and easier customization."
"I would love to see the upgrade procedure handled more effectively. I would prefer to have OVS installation possibilities, although the upgrade procedures should include the OS as well. You should be able to use the whole application as an appliance."
"Classification of junctions and new versions of applications, such as APIs, can be added to enable the use of more devices that utilize biometrics for Multi-Factor Authentication to improve the solution."
"I would like to see a move towards the newer technologies, which is what we are doing right now. I think that's in the roadmap that's coming, in the 12.8 and 14 releases, but we would like to have it sooner than later."
"We are finding some compatibility issues. We're still working with CA on them."
"They need to make configurations easier, and not have the engineer having to guess what will happen when he changes a particular setting."
"To add more value to this solution it needs to be more user-friendly."
"All the problems that we reported actually have never been resolved. We could not capture enough information for CA to be able to debug the problem."
"I would prefer to see their SAML integration be a more streamlined and easier interface."
"The support could be faster."
"An area Siteminder could improve on is that there are a few limitations, in terms of new protocols for OpenID. If I want to have different scopes, the features are limited. They also do not have APIs exposed, which is a major drawback. API is a feature I would like to see included in the next release."
