We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The mobile biometric authentication option improved user experience. It's always about security because, with two-factor authentication, it's always a separate device verifying the actual user logging in.""I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use.""It provides ease of connecting all our devices.""The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app.""The soundness of the solution is its most valuable feature. For example, if you are in our corporate network, you can log on without any traffic interfering.""The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities.""The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches.""It's pretty stable as a product."

"The repository has many features where you can define primary and secondary owners.""It's easy to manage and easy to use; a simple tool for end-users.""This product works well out of the box and if you don’t want to do a lot of configuration then this is the best tool.""We have found the implementation process to be very easy.""It's a highly functional system and a very well rounded solution. The onboarding of applications is solid. Their user access reviews are very good. Their role-based model and their identity life cycle stuff are solid. It's a very well rounded, strong product.""Saviynt risk-based access requests and intelligent access controls have made a significant impact on our company.""It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click.""The product is flexible to use."

Cons
"In the beginning, the initial setup was very complex.""The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT.""PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users.""We have encountered instances where it is not easy to do authentication.""The management console needs to be improved. PingID should revise it.""The product is not customizable.""I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved.""If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."

More PingID Cons →

"The product's stability is not easy to maintain.""According to feedback I've received, some users prefer SailPoint over Saviynt in real complex environments. SailPoint has its provisioning platform. Complex integrations may pose challenges in scenarios like a large bank with thousands of users, making SailPoint a preferred choice for some.""In terms of improvement, it's really just a matter of them getting more mature. It's a relatively new solution and they probably need to streamline a few of the processes as they mature. But there are not too many problems.""The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company.""The tool is difficult to migrate.""It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part.""The UI doesn’t enhance the user experience.""The company needs to do more to establish standard practices within the product itself that are common in the industry."

  • "If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
  • "The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
  • "We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
  • "Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
  • "The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
  • "Saviynt has a competitive price."
  • "If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
  • "Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
