Workspace ONE UEM and AWS IAM Identity Center compete in the identity management solutions category. AWS IAM Identity Center appears to have the upper hand due to its robust role and permission management and cost-effectiveness, despite Workspace ONE UEM's strengths in app deployment and device provisioning.
Features: Workspace ONE UEM is praised for efficient device management and app deployment, integrates well with Cisco ISE and other applications via REST and SOAP APIs, and includes a secure email gateway for email management. AWS IAM Identity Center is known for strong centralized management, role-based access, and automated permissions setups.
Room for Improvement: Workspace ONE UEM requires enhanced reporting, improved support for Mac management, and better third-party integrations, particularly with cloud solutions. AWS IAM Identity Center needs improved integration with other tools, better resource management for large user bases, and enhanced handling of temporary access credentials.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Workspace ONE UEM can be deployed in public, private, and hybrid clouds, but customer experiences with support are mixed, often requiring enterprise service agreements for better quality. AWS IAM Identity Center is primarily cloud-based and generally performs well, although support is also tied to additional service agreements.
Pricing and ROI: Workspace ONE UEM is perceived as costly, with high licensing fees that may be prohibitive for small to mid-sized businesses, though it provides ROI through improved security management. AWS IAM Identity Center is seen as more affordable, often free for basic IAM functionalities, with premium features incurring additional costs. Its accessible pricing model is viewed as providing straightforward ROI.
AWS IAM Identity Center is the recommended service for managing your workforce's access to AWS applications or your multiple AWS accounts (or both). It is a flexible solution that can be used to connect your existing identity source or help you create users in AWS. IAM Identity Center can be used alongside your existing AWS account access configurations.

Reviews from Real Users
Below is some feedback from our PeerSpot users who are currently using the solution:
PeerSpot user Patrick B., Cybersecurity Architect at a tech services company, says, "Its UI is extremely easy to use whether you're an advanced user or a novice user. When I first opened it up and had to learn the product, I was easily a novice. By the end of the third month, I was digging into the backend of the system and using it as a highly advanced user to accomplish what I needed to accomplish, and I was able to do it through the UI mostly."
Roshan T., Partner Manager North America at a tech company, mentions how satisfied he is with the product, saying, "You can put all your applications on a mobile device, be it a phone or tablet. It is secure and easy to use. Because it is centrally managed, you don't have to do any configuration on the phone. I just got the phone and connected to the central applications. I just downloaded one thing and everything got rolled out. Email, calendar, and other things were deployed centrally. If you don't have AirWatch, you have to configure your phone manually. For example, you need to deploy and configure your email manually and then synchronize everything. It is much simpler when a mobile device is centrally managed."
