"In general, the customization that is offered is very good. The company that I am working with currently is using this feature quite extensively."
"It has the ability to authenticate and authorize users. It is the main feature for our security."
"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."
"All of our applications get a point, click, and you are in, while we increase security at the same time."

"If you look at our organization, and really all financial institutions, we have a lot of legacy apps. So it really helps to get Single Sign-On."
"It has considerably reduced the amount of time that new users would take to join into the organization. Previously, it was a lengthy, manual process because it's a very secure environment, where they need to verify the user before they can actually grant him a user-ID and password. Integrating with the built-in custom application, and exposing CA Single Sign On to the internet, we were able to get the employees onboard. The time that we gained was: previously it would generally take from four to eight weeks for each employee, we brought it to one to two days."
"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 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."
"The application portal could be improved with more options and easier customization."
"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 pricing of the solution is in need of improvement. Oracle products are very expensive."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."
"The performance of Oracle Access Manager could be improved. It should be quick to install, but it wasn't, so this is another area for improvement. The Oracle Access Manager console also has room for improvement because it's slow."
"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."
"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."
"In the next release, they should focus more on use cases related to customer access management, customer identity, and access management."
"The technical support is not very good at all."
"There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution."
"We would like to the OAuth be more stable, more issues being fixed rather than not."
"The main thing is we do not have the traceability and good monitoring that CA can provide us to capture problems when they occur."
"To add more value to this solution it needs to be more user-friendly."
"The GUIs are not very clear, especially when integrating with other products from CA."
"Better documentation. I went through some sessions on single sign-on for version 12.7."
"As we are moving in to the mobility space, this is where we really see SiteMinder and their other product really come together to provide a solution base to a different area where the IoT is coming, the different business communications are happening. All of those things require authentication and we really want to see this product grow into that role."
"Some of the new protocols, like OAuth 2.0, could be improved."
"The Federation part of CA Single Sign On, it's a bit complex to implement because it involves the SSL certificates, exchange of certificates, and lot of technical details. The documentation misses some important parts of this, so that's the reason it took some time for us to go live."
