Enhanced data quality with machine learning support in diverse environments
We used Ataccama ONE to read data from the mainframe for a data quality perspective. There's a significant lack in that area with tools being able to interface with mainframe. MetLife has a diverse environment, including DB2, Oracle, SQL Server, legacy, and vSAN files. Being able to work in these various environments and put them to a single data quality tool was very appealing. Additionally, Ataccama supported AI and machine learning, which was one of the features I liked. Furthermore, we were able to interface bidirectionally with Collibra for data governance, catching data quality issues before propagating through the system.

Offers multi-factor authentication and application support side of PingFederate but application only supports specific protocols
A lot of teams work with technical support, but I work with it for user issues only. You might need support with things like application swaps, application names, and application URLs. I didn't know where to find those in Ping Identity, so I contacted technical support for those issues. The support team is very clever and active. They provide end-to-end support once an issue is created. I have worked with most of the support team. I also work with the support team because I work with the operations team. I provide 24/7 support to production and non-production environments. I coordinate with application and network teams to troubleshoot critical tickets and issues related to Ping Identity solutions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The data profile itself is excellent. You can understand the quality of the data in layman's terms."
"Customer service was excellent, and I would give it a ten out of ten."
"It is also easy to deploy."
"The desktop version of the solution was particularly valuable to me, primarily for creating components. We opted for the data quality aspect to assess the quality of our data warehouse. The functionalities available allowed us to not only check data quality but also serve as an ETL tool. This versatility enabled data transformation and storage in various formats, including files on platforms like SharePoint or local online directories. The flexibility of the tool catered to the specific needs of those building components, contributing to our desired outcomes."
"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."
"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"The product’s important feature is data profiling and quality check."
"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"It is a very stable solution."
"What I like best about PingID is that it's very user-friendly. PingID is well-built as a developer tool and regularly upgrades and updates via patches. I also like that PingID has clear documents that will help you integrate it with other solutions."
"From a security perspective, I highly value the product's biometric authentication methods such as FIDO, FaceID, YubiKey, and the mobile app."
"It provides ease of connecting all our devices."
"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."
"It offers robust features and customization options that justify the cost."
"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."
"People use the solution to secure their applications and authenticate particular processes."
 

Cons

"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."
"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working."
"Speaking specifically about the version we use, version 12.3, I'm unsure if this has been addressed in subsequent versions. One improvement I'd like to see pertains to the language used in certain components, especially in data quality checks. The language complexity posed a challenge for beginners. Although we had on-site assistance from Ataccama, making it manageable for us, some individuals found it difficult to comprehend, necessitating additional support. The provision of a comprehensive guide for on-premise installation can also be enhanced. The lack of detailed information on the solution's workings and the overwhelming nature of notifications, with extensive content, were areas of concern. Streamlining the notification content in newer versions would significantly expedite issue resolution."
"Although DQA can fetch data from most of the commonly used data sources, it has limited modifiers to get data, meaning that the number of technologies from which the data can be acquired is limited. For example, DQA does not support fetching data from Twitter or Facebook. Many competitors have this feature."
"There is a notable challenge in having to provide detailed filters before the site recognizes the search criteria."
"Data movement is a pain."
"The interfacing to tools such as Collibra was somewhat cumbersome and required more thought."
"I believe it would be beneficial if it could enhance its flexibility to connect with a wider range of downstream systems beyond just Excel and Postgres."
"It has a long way to go until it is a cloud-based solution."
"One significant challenge was ensuring smooth user migration during system upgrades in Ping."
"The management console needs to be improved. PingID should revise it."
"Notifications and monitoring are two areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"We had issues with the stability."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."
"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."
"In the beginning, the initial setup was very complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our licensing model wasn't user-specific; instead, we paid fees for the engine and maintenance. As we didn't have a support contract, maintenance fees were likely nonexistent. Regarding the upgrade, we had an account for the initial two or three years, and considering the features provided by the solution, the pricing was reasonable."
"Despite not being extremely low-cost, the pricing appears reasonable, making it a profitable and viable choice for companies that prioritize data security and adhere to specific policies."
"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"Ping Identity Platform is not an expensive solution."
"The product is costly."
"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."
"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."
"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."
"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."
"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."
"The tool is quite affordable."
