We performed a comparison between One Identity Manager and VMware Identity Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SailPoint, One Identity and others in Identity Management (IM)."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."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic provisioning and reconciliation of things like the Active Directory groups and memberships."
"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."
"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."
"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."
"The benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation."
"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."
"One Identity enables us to provide users with permissions for only the roles that they need. We can use segmentation to ensure that users don't have roles that can cause trouble in the business."
"Even without any customization, if you install it, configure it, it's ready... It's very powerful. Without any customization, it starts working."
"Workflow management is an important feature. With other identity management products, there was no workflow management so we had to build it ourselves."
"The solution is a typical, conventional IGA but the tool itself offers many options for customization."
"One Identity Manager offers several features that I found advantageous compared to other tools."
"It has many features which can be combined and configured in a great way, then put together in projects and ways that developers didn't think were possible, which has been great."
"We no longer keep users who shouldn't exist."
"The product makes it easier for employees to be more productive."
"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."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"Zero Trust implementation is a great feature."
"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"
"The most valuable feature is that it will use my credentials to access various parts of the infrastructure or other solutions, such as vRealize."
"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."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"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."
"Omada could communicate better with us about the product roadmap. We haven't gotten any updates about it. The user interface is often a bit difficult to understand. It isn't optimized for small screens, so it doesn't display all of the information clearly, so users need to scroll a lot."
"The account management integration isn't bad, but it isn't plug-and-play like Microsoft Azure. You need some deep development knowledge to set up the connectors."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"When making a process, you should be able to use some coding to do some advanced calculations. The calculations you can currently do are too basic. I would also like some additional script features."
"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."
"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."
"The user interface could be improved. The interface between Omada and the user is mainly text-based."
"The technical support is non-existent. It is not worth talking about."
"The initial setup was quite complex because you run into some existing policies that the company already had. There was some trouble with some inconsequential policies."
"With technical support, it is always an issue to get the right person. They do have good technical people in support, but it is sometimes not so easy to get them."
"One of the things we would like is the ability to have more than one system role manager. That would be nice. For example, when people are on vacation, sometimes it gets a little hard to administrate system roles."
"One area that could be improved is the speed of performance - it's often a bit slower because of the size of its database."
"We are trying to get rid stability issues from the legacy version. We are now implementing version 8.2, which is so much better than version 6."
"[Regarding] their upgrades, we're going to 8.12 right now and everything is running very smoothly but this is actually the first upgrade that has gone off well. Even the other "dots" have taken us six months or longer to get through QA testing."
"The Metamodel is not developer-friendly, and the web designer customization could be simplified."
"There is a need for better user lifecycle management within VMware Identity Manager, along with better user governance...The scalability of the product needs to improve."
"The mobile SSO doesn't work as well on Android."
"I would like to have better support for multi-cloud sessions."
"I would like better integration for deploying programs with binary files."
"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."
"Many of the features that exist in Active Directory do not exist in Identity Manager, which means that people depend on Active Directory."
"The license could be better."
"We have a lot of problems when it comes to integrating with Active Directory."
