Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Okta, Google and others in Identity and Access Management as a Service (IDaaS) (IAMaaS)."The most valuable feature is the reduced maintenance burden for the client."
"Federation and Identity let us create users and send federation tools, giving the authentication and authorization to users. With the on-premise solution, I can do the installation, configuration, and integration of Identity Access Management. This gives us direct access. The integration with the single solution E-business suite is also very valuable."
"Identity Cloud has simplified our migrations. Since we're primarily working with native Oracle solutions, we can adopt many features of Oracle Identity Cloud Management."
"The most valuable feature is identity management."
"The APIs are well documented, which has allowed us to access the IDCS security applications in our custom APIs."
"The most valuable features are the high stability and good performance."
"Onboarding of new employees, consultants, and partners has rapidly increased. We reduced the time to onboard them and the ease of onboarding has been improved. Therefore, we recognize there has been efficiency which has been brought into our organization."
"When we publish the applications, getting the credentials to log in and keep the application up or running is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the User Experience Designer, which has been very helpful for our project."
"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."
"One of the features that I enjoyed most was the integration with Azure AD because I could use VMware Identity Manager to standardize the User Principal Name coming from Active Directory. You have Azure AD Connect to do that. In between, if you have vIDM handling it, you can easily get the synchronization of users into your VM and standardize the User Principal Name. If you require quality assurance for handling it, you can actually count on the vIDM to do so. That was one of the main things I enjoyed about the product."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"The most valuable feature is that it will use my credentials to access various parts of the infrastructure or other solutions, such as vRealize."
"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"
"Its value is when you use it with a Workspace ONE UEM solution as it is part of the ecosystem for VMware Workspace ONE."
"Oracle needs to improve the GUI and many other aspects of the cloud console. It isn't as slick as Azure, Google, or IWS cloud. The documentation could be better, too."
"Self Service features are still limited in IDCS, and there is a need for more customization of the self-service screens."
"The IDs that are not used for a particular number of days should be disabled automatically."
"The protocol could be easier to use."
"We still see a lot of bugs in any of the versions that Oracle comes out with. So, there are a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."
"The initial setup was a little complex. At that time, the method of integration was a bit complicated due to the scripts that we were required to write for the integration."
"The cost of this solution should be reduced."
"Many of the features that exist in Active Directory do not exist in Identity Manager, which means that people depend on Active Directory."
"I would like to have better support for multi-cloud sessions."
"There are a lot of difficulties whenever people have a lot of configurations in it, basically related to security certificate configurations and integration with VMware Horizon."
"I would like better integration for deploying programs with binary files."
"vIDM could be improved with the multi-tenant capabilities that VMware tends to offer—features like customization branding and the integration of the app catalog based on the branding. Since the integration has been at top-level OGs, you were not able to then do rebranding if you were required to use specific user groups to highlight specific applications. At the time, I was personally opening feature requests for these things. I haven't worked with the latest release, so I don't know if these features were already deployed or not."
"The database gets corrupted when used in the cluster. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't."
"We have a lot of problems when it comes to integrating with Active Directory."
"The mobile SSO doesn't work as well on Android."
