We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiAuthenticator and OneLogin by One Identity based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The customer success and support teams have been crucial."
"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."
"We are able to onboard new user accounts much faster by automating the process and standardizing our operations globally. Previously, there were many individual processes and manual admin interactions. We also see a lot of cost savings and benefits because through automation and standardization."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"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."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"The best feature in Omada Identity is that it enables us to implement standardized employee life cycle processes so that we don't have to create them ourselves. We can then use the standard workflows. The breadth and scope of the solution’s IGA features also fulfill our requirements."
"What I like most is that we can always find a solution, and we can also find the cause when something goes wrong. I like that the most because everything is in one way or another traceable. That is what I like most. I like its reliability."
"The web feature is quite versatile. It serves as the sole server authenticator and is valuable not only with FortiGate products but also within the entire Forti system, making it highly useful for me."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy. It is also easy to deploy."
"It reduces the need for network administrator intervention by allowing the user to perform their own registration and resolve their own password problems and issues."
"FortiAuthenticator is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using the SMS messages."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it easy to install. The user experience is very good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is RADIUS service and the social network integration feature."
"The feature I value the most is the one-time passwords because it helps to authenticate users so you know the timing of their usage."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."
"In my role, the most valuable features are two-factor authentication and self-service password reset. The most helpful feature for the institution as a whole is probably the single sign-on. As an IT director, I care about security and ease of use."
"Documentation."
"Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had."
"Ease of integration with AD."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"OneLogin is efficient."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"The web GUI can be improved."
"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."
"Omada Identity has two main issues that need to be solved or improved the most. One is its setup or installation process because it's complex and cumbersome. I'm talking about the process for on-premises deployment because I've never tried the cloud version of Omada Identity. Setting up the cloud version should be much easier. The second area for improvement in Omada Identity is that it's piggybacking on Microsoft's complex way of having all kinds of add-ons, extensions, or setups, whether small or large, such as the new SQL Server, and it's cumbersome to make sure that everything works. Omada Identity is a complex solution and could still be improved."
"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."
"I would like to see them expand the functionality of the tool to continue to be competitive with the monsters out there. For example, they could add functionality on the authentication side, functionality that Octa and SailPoint have. But they should do that while maintaining the same simplicity that makes Omada a product of choice today."
"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."
"The solution should be made more agile for customers to own or configure."
"The GUI has some shortcomings and can be made better. The GUI is not great."
"Other features that would improve the product are a single sign-on where people can use their Gmail ID to log-in, etc."
"It would be helpful to receive a code by yourself for authentication instead of it registered to a phone."
"The hardware aspect of the solution could be improved. We are not really able to understand the hardware capabilities of the device."
"Lacks a simplified two-factor authentication process."
"The GUI is on the older side but I'm sure that it will be upgraded soon. It works, but it looks a little dated."
"It does the job I paid for, but the graphical interface could be improved."
"I would like to see more security features in reference to identity login or identity identification."
"The tool must be made more robust."
"This product doesn't necessarily provide us with all of the functionality that we need, such as being able to share passwords with external users."
"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."
"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications."
"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."
"OneLogin offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."
"I'd like OneLogin to have a customization section that displays the company's offerings, categorized by different topics."
"They have downtime twice a year or once in six months. During the downtime, the SSO page did not come up. When users wanted to get to their email, they were redirected to the OneLogin page, but the page did not come up, and MFA and logins failed. It completely crippled us."
