ForgeRock Valuable Features

Trisha Bhola - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Associate at Cognizant

ForgeRock products are customizable, and the out-of-the-box features are solid, too. I primarily use the OIDC compliance features. It's just a configuration. it's easy to set up and customize trees. We can add our own features if necessary. Banks and corporations have different standards and specific validations.

The main feature that I like about ForgeRock is the workflow engine. It allows us to define some of the custom users depending upon the user's contextual access.  Other than that, the deployment and management of the tool is extremely difficult.

One of the best features of ForgeRock OpenIDM is that once you configure all the connectors, scripts, and modifications, you can migrate that project directory to other higher environments. We don't need to reinstall. Installation and configuration are pretty easy for ForgeRock OpenIDM.

ForgeRock OpenAM is also pretty easy to install and configure. The easiest part of the solution is the workflows, which are pretty easy and very good. We used to have chains that we would not use in the latest release.

We could previously make Authorization policies, and based upon these policies, only provide the access to certain resources. Right now our identity is not limited to just people but also items such as a smart refrigerator and a smart car.

This entire login flow or registration flow is now taken care of by intelligence authentication. Almost all the notes which are required for these journeys are out of the box. If you want to enable biometrics, you can get these notes from ForgeRock marketplace. This is one of the features which I like the most about this solution. Most technologies are out of the box or require a minimum configuration.

Fundamentally, we're not using ForgeRock as a single application Identity Management Solution. We need it for multiple clients, multiple implementations. Not all of them are necessarily a multi-tenant solution. We need a very versatile solution that can do a lot of work, but from a single instance that we can centralize authentications and we don't duplicate the efforts and that's where ForgeRock seems to do better.

The most valuable features of ForgeRock are social login and data protection. From an organization's point of view, data privacy is the most valuable feature of ForgeRock. Data should be protected in the right way in an organization. User data is everything in an organization, and if data hacking harms an organization's reputation.

ForgeRock is a very good product for security and meeting your compliance and automation requirements. Our IT team's workload has definitely reduced after implementing ForgeRock.

In the beginning, it was open-source as opposed to other solutions like IBM. We used Solaris IDM and we had to merge with another product and we chose this because, in our company, open-source software is the main solution.
