My favorite feature of the suite is, of course, the provisioning aspect of it, as it allows you to provision accounts within minutes instead of waiting weeks, which is a huge benefit for business at the end of the day so that you can get your workers up and running in a timely fashion.

Easy and quick integration of CA Identity Suite with company systems improves security and provides a quicker ROI by decreasing the time we need to spend on these tasks.

Additionally, the CA Identity Suite was able to replace our old mainframe based identity suite with a newer generation, more rapid development tool, which helped us to achieve our roadmap and reach the destination which we were looking for.

The most valuable feature is the speed of implementation. Now with the Virtual Appliance, it's much faster. In the past, to implement this kind of solution, it would take so many weeks. Now, it takes one day, or minutes, and we have the deployment ready.

With the Virtual Appliance, combined with CA Identity Manager and GovernanceMinder as one solution, it eliminates having multiple infrastructure requirements, multiple products, and gives a holistic view of the access granting.

For Identity Manager, I’d give it 5/10 process wise it’s stable but they need to come up with better instructions on how to integrate it with different types of data sources.

However, although it's a lot easier than some other tools that we've worked with, we always want more training.

I think CA is too heavy and can't do some things out-of-the-box, so I can't tell you that I love Identity Suite, because right now I don't.

I would like synchronization when a mapping is added between end points. Currently, the synchronization is not complete. It would be great if this synchronization happened immediately.

If there was a seamless integration between portal and IdentityMinder, then that would help a bit.

The connectors for the identity and governance part could use some improvement, by way of adding more areas. They need more development to cover more target applications.

The documentation can be improved because sometimes we have some technical issues that were not documented and we have to rely on support to solve them. Then there are issues around getting the architecture, but it's challenging to get the architecture.
