"Access certification and provisioning are two of the solutions most valuable features.""A feature of SailPoint IdentityIQ that I like best is that it has good integration with other platforms. My company is using ADP here in Brazil, and SailPoint IdentityIQ works very, very well with it. My company is also using the solution for governance evaluation, segregation, and other access tests.

Cons
"More integrations would be better.""In terms of a governance platform, it's worth noting that CyberArk doesn't offer a particularly strong one.""The tool has issues with the third-party SMS gateway.

The tool also needs to improve its scalability.""There is room for improvement in documentation. The documentation could be more specific about the changes needed to achieve specific goals.""CyberArk Identity could improve by having the ability to better manage the network, such as Cisco. There seem to be some issues in this area.""They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature.""In terms of general user feedback, the more security you put in front of a user, the more they complain. So usability and the user experience are always a challenge. So there's always room for improvement.""CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."

More CyberArk Identity Cons →

"SailPoint IdentityIQ has a primitive AI engine.""The advanced provisioning features require more improvement.""Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time.""What it doesn't do is provide notice in the event of a vulnerability or offense from the security.""They should lower the price and technical support should be better.""There's a lot of customization required to improve the user experience.""The solution, in general, is quite expensive.""Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive."
