Sentiment score

Oracle Identity Governance support is inconsistent, often requiring persistence and community help, with mediocre customer service ratings around 6-7/10.

Responses from AWS engineers aren't always direct, so when urgent issues occur, I manage them immediately and prioritize solutions.
The service is straightforward, and I haven't encountered much complexity.
We haven't needed to contact technical support as the IAM tool is intuitive and configured on our end.

AWS Identity and Access Management needs improvement in the prevention of unauthorized access to sensitive data and models.

Featured Reviews

Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.
Sudalai Raja - PeerSpot reviewer
Manages access permissions effectively with role-based control and MFA
One of the most valuable features is the ability to create IAM users and add them to specific user groups to manage access permissions at a group level. It also provides MFA, which adds an additional layer of security. The solution supports role-based access control, allowing specific roles to be attached to AWS services like EC2, enabling automatic access to resources such as S3 buckets.
Amimesh Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers reliability through features associated with RBAC
Upgrading and making changes to the product is very difficult. It is difficult when you are upgrading the product because sometimes you cannot directly upgrade from one version to another version. You have to go to the lower version and then upgrade to the higher version, which is the biggest drawback of Oracle products. There are no additional features in the tool currently, and it has been the same for the last ten years. I want to see AI features in the tool so it becomes easy for implementers. There should be a change in the installation and deployment part, which is very heavy, due to which the team requires a lot of time, like two to three weeks. It should be easy to implement the tool in two or three days.
