Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "The price is quite comparable to the other enterprise-level solutions in that market."
  • "I recommend conducting a PoC on every available product before choose one."
  • "CA solutions are generally expensive but for the customer the ROI is big."
  • "Symantec Siteminder is expensive; they could definitely do better on the price."
  • "The licensing is fair for this solution."
  • "Siteminder is a little costly. You pay for licensing, and they offer packages, so if you have less users, then you have to buy different products at different prices. If you have more of a user base, then the package is different. They also include other features—for example, if you have a database and you're using Siteminder, then it's good to use a Semantic-specific database, but if you are using less, then you have to purchase the database separately. Whereas if you are going for a bigger license, then it comes within the package. It depends on which plan you are using."
  • "The pricing is reasonable."

    Overview

    CA Identity Service helps organizations adopt cloud applications with confidence by providing user provisioning, single sign-on (SSO) and identity lifecycle management as a service, at a low TCO and fast time to value. Bidirectional integrations bring control and visibility into an organization’s cloud environment, simplify account reconciliation, and reduce the cloud attack surface. Out-of-the-box provisioning, SSO integrations and a SAML connector enable secure and rapid cloud adoption. Intuitive interfaces improve administrative efficiency in managing user accounts and entitlements, while a unified application launchpad delivers SSO across cloud and on-premises applications, simplifies the end-user experience and helps boost productivity.

    Symantec® SiteMinder is designed to secure the modern enterprise through a unified access management platform that applies the appropriate authentication mechanism to positively identify users; provides single sign-on and identity federation for seamless access to any application; enforces granular security policies to stop unauthorized access to sensitive resources; and monitors and manages the entire user session to prevent session hijacking. Finally, Symantec SiteMinder is battle-tested and has been deployed in the largest IT environments in the world.
