We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
The most valuable feature is that you can manage users from one central location. The most valuable feature is the performance. Although we have not looked at the whole product and explored it completely, we find that all the authentication features that we are using now are valuable. The Cloud Identity is well advanced in terms of features, applications, and the components that it is offering. The main control page and the ability to manage all our users from a web-based portal are the most valuable aspects of the solution. That's particularly useful because we're a heterogeneous network. | This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance. |
Cons | |
In the next release, I would like to see integration with different systems, mainly wireless SIEMS and other analytical systems that we want to introduce. The pricing for this solution is a little bit higher than AWS and others, which is something that should be improved. To improve the product, the integration with third-party products could always be smoother. The interface could be improved by simplifying it further. The solution needs to better integrate with Mac's OS. | I think that the onboarding framework could be improved. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
The fees are paid monthly and there are no additional costs other than the licensing fees. The product is billed on a monthly basis depending on the number of users. Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. We probably spend about $50,000 a year on licensing. | Information Not Available |

Overview | |
Cloud Identity is an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) and enterprise mobility management (EMM) product. It offers the identity services and endpoint administration that are available in G Suite as a stand-alone product. As an administrator, you can use Cloud Identity to manage your users, apps, and devices from a central location - the Google Admin console. | IdentityNow is a full-featured cloud-based identity and access management solution, or IAM as a Service (IDaaS), that delivers single sign-on, password management, provisioning, and access certification services for cloud, mobile, and on-premises applications. As a critical component of the enterprise IT infrastructure, IdentityNow is architected to meet the most stringent security, scalability, performance and availability requirements. IdentityNow was designed from the ground up to be a simple yet powerful, cost-effective IDaaS solution, with no hardware or software to deploy. It delivers immediate value to business and IT users with services that are fast to set up and easy to use. With consumer-focused usability, IdentityNow gives users simple, intuitive ways to manage their daily needs, from accessing cloud and internal web apps, resetting passwords or requesting and reviewing access. Importantly, IdentityNow not only integrates to other cloud apps, but to all of the on-premises resources you would expect from an enterprise IAM solution. Our integration to both on-premises and cloud-based applications is designed to meet the most stringent IT security standards—a key requirement for cross-domain IAM. |
