"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"Zero Trust implementation is a great feature."
"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 product has poor reporting and analytic capabilities. Reports are not easy to use and its analytic capabilities are limited."
"They can work on their strategy for the on-premise version. They have to decide whether and for how long they will support the on-premise version. The new features first appear in the cloud, and after that, they are released for the on-premise version. In the cloud, you have more options and flexibility, which is absolutely normal. They have to have a clear strategy regarding whether they'll support the on-premises version with the same focus. The licensing for on-premise and cloud is a little bit different. They can make it the same."
"The advanced provisioning features require more improvement."
"The solution, in general, is quite expensive."

"it's very dependent on an active directory"
