We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The identity lifecycle support is definitely valuable because we are a complex organization, and there is a lot of onboarding, movement, and offboarding in our organization. We have 31,000 users, and there are a lot of users who are constantly onboarding, offboarding, and moving. So, we need to make sure that these activities are supported. In old times, we used to do everything manually. Everyone was onboarded, offboarded, or moved manually. So, from a business point of view and an economics point of view, identity lifecycle is most valuable. From a security point of view, access review is the most important feature for us.""It has a lot of out-of-the-box features. It is flexible, and there are a lot of possibilities to configure and extend it. It is user-friendly. It has an interface that is end-user or business-user friendly.""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.""The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors.""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.""We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access.""For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand.""The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."

"With the Virtual Appliance, combined with CA Identity Manager and GovernanceMinder as one solution, it eliminates having multiple infrastructure requirements, multiple products, and gives a holistic view of the access granting.""The most valuable feature is the speed of implementation. Now with the Virtual Appliance, it's much faster. In the past, to implement this kind of solution, it would take so many weeks. Now, it takes one day, or minutes, and we have the deployment ready.""Nowadays it is offered as a Virtual Appliance, and that saves considerable time for installing and controlling it.""You can spin up IDM or Identity Suite in a few hours and it is ready to use.""I found all of them quite valuable, especially the identity manager, governance, and identity portal. All the features are helpful.""The most valuable feature is the re-certification campaign capabilities."

"Among the most valuable features of One Identity Manager are administration from Active Directory and Azure Active Directory, as well as administration from Exchange. These features enable us to have fully automated processes to create new accounts and new mailboxes. The most valuable option is the ability to design an automated route to give our customers permissions.""One Identity enables us to provide users with permissions for only the roles that they need. We can use segmentation to ensure that users don't have roles that can cause trouble in the business.""We chose this product for being able to accommodate our requirements. It's very flexible, and it's open to being developed to our requirements.""Even without any customization, if you install it, configure it, it's ready... It's very powerful. Without any customization, it starts working.""The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution.""Workflow management is an important feature. With other identity management products, there was no workflow management so we had to build it ourselves.""The back-end, its capabilities, and workflows are very good.""One Identity Manager offers several features that I found advantageous compared to other tools."

Cons
"The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up.""I would like more training. As someone who is new to this world, I don't feel that the courses Omada provides are good enough. They should also improve the documentation. It is difficult to learn how to use the solution by yourself""I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now.""If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI).""Its flexibility is both a good thing and a bad thing. Because it is very flexible, it also becomes too complex. This is common for most of the products we evaluated. Its scalability should be better. It had a few scalability issues.""When you do a recalculation of an identity, it's hard to understand what was incorrect before you started the recalculation, and which values are actually updated... all you see are all the new fields that are provisioned, instead of seeing only the fields that are changed.""The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement.""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."

More Omada Identity Cons →

"If there was a seamless integration between portal and IdentityMinder, then that would help a bit.""The documentation can be improved because sometimes we have some technical issues that were not documented and we have to rely on support to solve them. Then there are issues around getting the architecture, but it's challenging to get the architecture.""The connectors for the identity and governance part could use some improvement, by way of adding more areas. They need more development to cover more target applications.""I would like synchronization when a mapping is added between end points. Currently, the synchronization is not complete. It would be great if this synchronization happened immediately."

More CA Identity Suite [EOL] Cons →

"The support team could be improved on. The first level of support essentially looks up knowledge base articles and often can't provide the answer needed.""Visually, I would like it to be more user-friendly.""One Identity Manager is currently in the process of modernizing its UI, which I hope will result in a more user-friendly interface for its Identity Manager. However, it is uncertain whether they have plans to consolidate their various tools into a unified system to simplify configuration and tasks.""One Identity Manager can be made more user-friendly for end users.""It is a large solution where you need to learn how to work in a certain way for it to provide the best benefit.""There are several smaller parts of the tool that have room for improvement.""I would like to have more advanced features and reporting added to One Identity Manager.""The web interface has room for improvement. It could be more performant and the design of the web interface is relatively complicated. It could be simplified."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is too high for SMBs."
  • "Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
  • "The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
  • "It is licensed per managed user per year."
  • "There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
  • "It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
  • "From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."
  • "My client deals directly with the Omada Identity team in terms of licensing. I never look at pricing, so I'm not aware of how much the solution costs, but it's worth the money. Often, when you begin to use Omada Identity and it takes a while to set up, it'll be irreversible, and you'd depend on and focus more on the functionality of the solution, rather than its price tag."

    Information Not Available
  • "Start with an operations team that is motivated to learn a lot in a short period of time. The longer you wait, the more expensive it will be to get the right level of expertise in this area."
  • "There are old processes that are really great for some people and look like pieces of artwork. However, the maintenance of them is really expensive."
  • "The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."
  • "We have the premium support and are very satisfied. They are always answer our questions very quickly. For the moment, we are very satisfied, but I think it's because we are paying for the premium support."
  • "It helps us save on licenses for applications because we are following the account lifecycle, as well as account reactivation."
  • "We are paying for premium support, which is expensive. However, we do receive very good, fast support."
  • "It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."
  • "It has helped to reduce customer costs."

    Reviews from Real Users

    The initial setup process for an employee is straightforward. We set up processes for user accounts and we can add other processes to them. Our goal is to automate all user-permission and user-administration processes with One Identity and we are doing that more and more.” - Marc H., IT Architect at a tech services company

    “The most valuable features are that it has a lot of capabilities, can integrate with a lot of systems, including automated onboarding like CyberArk, and allows you to integrate different entities.” - Security Consultant at a financial services firm
