A compliance manager is able to see things he wouldn't otherwise be able to see, although I can't run it across all systems because some of them don't have all the required configurations.
This solution exposes things that are going on. Here's an analogy: the first time you look at drop of water in a microscope, you don’t know what things are floating around. You see things that you want to investigate, but you don’t know whether they're good or bad. With this solution, a compliance manager is able to see things he wouldn't otherwise be able to see. He sees both the good and the bad, makes a determination of whether they're indeed good or bad, and then takes the necessary steps or actions to take the good and get rid of the bad. In this way, it allows him to do better things with regard to security control, certificates, role management, and other role-based access.

Identity workflows have delivered strong governance but remain complex to install and customize
I would describe the installation of Oracle Identity Governance on-premises as quite complex. Very complex. To install the product, it took us maybe three or four days to get it up and running just to go through the installation procedures. I repeated the same exercise in 2017 because I also migrated from 11c to 12c. That was the migration in 2017 that I managed. The migration took a long time. It took two to three years to be able to literally migrate all the code that I had. So it was quite complex. To summarize it quickly, I would describe the product as complete, very powerful, and very capable. However, it is extremely complex because Oracle relies on their own framework to customize and develop and fine-tune the functionalities. It is not Java, it is not some public framework. It is Java-based more or less, but it has their own Oracle framework for development and that makes the product quite complex to harness.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"With this solution, a compliance manager is able to see things he wouldn't otherwise be able to see."
"Application access is provided to and removed from end users in a timely manner, which removes delays in the on-boarding/off-boarding process and also improves productivity and security."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Identity Governance is user lifecycle management. Certification is also a valuable feature of the solution. Oracle Identity Governance allows you to assign who has access to what, which is its basic feature."
"The solution helps us to define roles and get people to specific tasks; from this point of view, it is an amazing tool."
"Oracle Identity Governance is a very complete product."
"Identifying connector framework for unifying provisioning capabilities from OIM."
"Its most valuable feature is its scalability."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"We have been able, after eight months of coding our own Java classes, to implement a Joiner/Mover/Leaver process."
 

Cons

"Unfortunately, right now it's just eye candy and, despite the ability for a compliance manager to see things he wouldn't otherwise see, it still hasn't provided the benefits we had hoped."
"In this area, I don't see great support."
"The development and the administration side could be a lot more intuitive and easier to use than it currently is, in terms of functionality and what it tries to achieve as a Single Sign-On entity for an enterprise environment."
"The solution requires too much infrastructure and should be less code-heavy."
"With Oracle, it's always about the learning curve and the nature of how the product is integrated."
"There were issues when we deployed it, though Oracle helped us resolve them."
"We faced many issues while migrating onto this solution."
"The solution should be easy to implement with components combined in one file and built-in features to integrate target applications without having to install additional connectors."
"Oracle has a lot to improve in their customer service in and around this product."
