| Senior technical Consultant at CA Africa | 4.0 | I primarily use Symantec SiteMinder for single sign-on sessions, appreciating its easy installation and seamless integration on Windows. However, it could improve by expanding compatibility with more identity providers for better handshake capabilities. I've also used CA and Microsoft solutions. |
| Senior Software Engineer at HCLTech | 3.5 | We use Siteminder mainly as a reverse proxy for application security, valuing its access control and single sign-on features. However, it needs improvement in user experience, integration with other products, scalability, and support for hybrid cloud environments. |
| Global INFRA Technical Tower at Hanonsystems | 1.0 | We use Symantec Siteminder for identity management, portability control, and single sign-on, incorporating multi-factor authentication and integrating with security systems like Splunk. However, increased maintenance costs and customization for Active Directory are concerns, prompting consideration of alternatives. |
| Associate General Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | I use Symantec SiteMinder primarily for legacy on-premises systems, managing AWS single sign-on separately. Its distinguishing feature involves separating protected and unprotected resources. However, setup and maintenance are complex, requiring multiple steps dependent on databases and certificates. |
| Managing Director at I'curity Solutions | 3.5 | I deploy and support Symantec Siteminder, finding its authentication and single sign-on features valuable for compliance with data security and privacy. However, it needs integrated adaptive and multi-factor authentication, unlike competitors who offer them as part of their solutions. |
| System Director at a government with 501-1,000 employees | 4.0 | I use Symantec SiteMinder for authentication and authorization, appreciating its easy integration with various systems and agent-based setup. However, it lacks modern authentication features like OAuth or OIDC, which I hope will improve, especially for containers. |
| Sr IAM/PAM Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | I found Siteminder effective for diverse single sign-on needs, handling bulk traffic well and providing security ROI. However, its setup is complex, support is slow, and it lacks modern API and OpenID features compared to newer alternatives on the market. |
| Group CEO at Flexsolutions | 4.5 | I find SiteMinder a stable, scalable web SSO solution, recommending it for secure applications. However, its high cost, slow support, and lack of innovation are concerns, requiring expert implementation despite its benefits. |
