OneLogin by One Identity Initial Setup

In terms of the deployment model, it is not on-premises, but it connects to Active Directory. In our use case, we did not have Active Directory. Our setup was fully on the cloud. They connected it to our core systems. Our HRMS system and our email system were the main systems we wanted to connect OneLogin with.

The initial setup was very easy. With API keys, we could add the users with one click from the Gmail system. It was very simple for us to get that going. 

It took us a couple of weeks. OneLogin is good if there is a connector, but we did not get enough connectors from them. For example, we did not have a connector for our ERP. When we did not have a connector, we ended up building it because we were a software company. That delayed things for us.

The initial setup process is quite straightforward. Any issues I encountered were promptly resolved with the help of the support team.

Setting up OneLogin is straightforward. Their onboarding is streamlined, and the onboarding engineer was knowledgeable of the product. We were up and running on our basic apps quickly, and they were responsive during the onboarding process. We had a nice onboarding experience with checklists as we went through and got the service operational. The onboarding experience was great.

We had three system admins from our organization. It was me and two of my employees. After deployment, it requires little maintenance. We use the product rather than maintain it. We add new applications to the portfolio, look at the logs, and check in on some of the processes that we built around it.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward for people that understand single sign-on and how to set that up. There isn't anything that's particularly complex.

It is a SaaS solution and it replicates from an on-premises Active Directory.

Our OneLogin account manager, along with a couple of their technicians, assisted us with the initial setup. We handled the basic configuration ourselves to our specifications. However, for some specific use cases and unique requirements that necessitated process automation, we enlisted their expertise. I also have a good understanding of the custom connectors, and we're comfortable managing those on our own. After that initial collaboration, I didn't require much further assistance. The remaining configuration steps are well-documented and straightforward.

After approval and the initial calls, the deployment took less than 24 hours to complete.

The deployment involved one person from our organization and two people from OneLogin.

I was part of the initial setup. It's been a while now and it is more straightforward. Initially, I needed to get used to the product and figure out where everything is more than anything. I wouldn't call it that complex. The documentation has been getting better, so that definitely goes a long way. I wouldn't describe the setup as too complex. There's a learning curve, however, it's not super high. For the most part, you can find where things are in the various different menus.

We deployed the solution using two or three IT staff. We're a smaller company.

There are around 45 to 50 end-users. Endpoints were around 75 to 80. We do have a variety of different teams, some of which use different software or different applications. We do have a lot of remote users and it has worked flawlessly for them for the most part work. We've had contractors use it and it has worked flawlessly there also. It's pretty robust and pretty simple to set up new users and give them access to whatever they need.

The solution requires occasional maintenance that is done internally. We look through the logs or look through access.

Initial setup was mostly straightforward. We'd done it before with the previous provider, so a number of the most difficult questions had already been answered.

I didn't do the integration, I just did the administration after it had been integrated. That said, it was SaaS as far as I'm aware.

I handled maintenance. We didn't have a ton of maintenance to do, or updates or anything of that nature. Once we got it up and running, it was essentially just basically making sure that the bill got paid.

It's quite simple to set up OneLogin. The initial setup is quite simple because you don't have to do too many tasks. Many things are already there when you log in to manage the product.

Compared to the on-premise solution, the cloud version of OneLogin has many pre-configured settings and it doesn't take much time to set up for your enterprise. 

I'm not the person who does the deployments. We are partners with OneLogin and we do this for the clients. The delivery team handles the deployments. What we have done is organize some pilot programs where we demonstrated the product capabilities to our customers.

During the initial setup, I was going through the user manual and then trying to work out how to implement everything. I am inter-technical. Therefore, I have a fair understanding of how the system works. It was not a problem for me. For first-time users, I think it could be simplified a little bit more.

Fairly complex. Our implementation was different than their standard, out of the box, installation. It took some time for us to wrap our mind around OneLogin's capabilities as well as OneLogin to understand our business.
