We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs.""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.""Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example.""The support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable.""It has a very user-friendly interface compared to what we are used to, and it is highly configurable. In the old solution, when we needed to do something, we had to have a programmer sitting next to us, whereas, in Omada Identity, everything is configurable.""The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses.""The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors.""Omada's onboarding features reflect our processes for onboarding new employees well. That is the primary reason we use this solution. We use role-based access control. I'm not sure how much it has improved our security posture, but it's made managing identities more convenient."

"In terms of the most valuable feature of One Identity Manager, it's not like one feature is useful without the other features. It's not a tool, but it's more an overall integrated solution that is helpful and not specifically one solution on its own. The best points of One Identity Manager would be its process orchestration and synchronization manager.""For the recertification and segregation of duties, it's easier to know all the information about our employees. If we need to delete some information, we can do it from a central point, then it can be deleted on all our searches. This is very good for GDPR.""One Identity is simple to implement. About 90 percent of the implementation is configuration rather than scripting and creating the connectors.""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 have seen a slight reduction in help desk calls, as this solution is a self-service product.""It's very flexible. You can customize it to the fullest extent. You can use it for almost every situation for every customer.""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.""The biggest improvement has been the auditing. Now we have a record of what the users have, what the users have requested and when, and when things were approved. It's all in the same system."

More One Identity Manager Pros →

"It's very easy to implement everything.""Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization.""The keystore feature has been most valuable for us.""The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features.""The product provides easy integration between API manager and IT server components.""I would rate the solution's stability eight or nine out of ten.""Comprehensive ecosystem."

Cons
"They need to improve the cost for small companies.""The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement.""The UI design needs improvement. One or two years ago, Omada changed its user interface to simplify, but the simplification has not really kicked in.""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.""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.""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.""One thing that we are not so happy about is the user interface. It is a bit dated. I know that they are working on that, but the user interface is quite dated. Currently, it is a little bit difficult to customize the user interface to the need of the business, which is a little bit disappointing. It needs it to be a little bit easier to operate, and it should have a better user interface.""If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."

More Omada Identity Cons →

"We fell into that trap of over-customization which made upgrading the product difficult.""There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal.""I would like to see a lot more integration with our platforms, more on the connector side.""I would like to integrate automated testing with One Identity, and it would be great to have some support from the vendor on here.""It would be nice to have more functionality in terms of connecting SAP systems, provisioning user accounts through SAP systems, and provisioning additional attributes.""The performance could use improvement. Sometimes synchronizations take too long.""I would like to have more extensive out-of-the-box reports.""Improvements in documentation would be beneficial."

More One Identity Manager Cons →

"Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code.""There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation.""I found the initial setup to be very complex.""The high availability architecture has to be improved.""This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box.""The solution could improve its development from a user perspective.""This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is too high for SMBs."
  • "Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
  • "The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
  • "It is licensed per managed user per year."
  • "There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
  • "It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
  • "From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."
  • "My client deals directly with the Omada Identity team in terms of licensing. I never look at pricing, so I'm not aware of how much the solution costs, but it's worth the money. Often, when you begin to use Omada Identity and it takes a while to set up, it'll be irreversible, and you'd depend on and focus more on the functionality of the solution, rather than its price tag."
  • More Omada Identity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Start with an operations team that is motivated to learn a lot in a short period of time. The longer you wait, the more expensive it will be to get the right level of expertise in this area."
  • "There are old processes that are really great for some people and look like pieces of artwork. However, the maintenance of them is really expensive."
  • "The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."
  • "We have the premium support and are very satisfied. They are always answer our questions very quickly. For the moment, we are very satisfied, but I think it's because we are paying for the premium support."
  • "It helps us save on licenses for applications because we are following the account lifecycle, as well as account reactivation."
  • "We are paying for premium support, which is expensive. However, we do receive very good, fast support."
  • "It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."
  • "It has helped to reduce customer costs."
  • More One Identity Manager Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We have to take their support, but that is a minimal charge if I'm comparing it to other identity managers."
  • "I have found the solutions license is priced competitively compared to others."
  • "At this time we are working with the open-source version."
  • "They should bring in some good pricing models to host the marketplace."
