Information Security Engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
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.

User access management excels but needs enhancements with integration capabilities
I was aware of that because I used to manage these solutions earlier on, but it was purchased by the Procurement team, so I was not involved in any of those.There are certain details I may not be able to disclose currently, but we can speak in general about a number of products and tools that are ongoing. I have not been using access management controls here, so I don't have the latest features or details or hands-on experience in that space. I cannot share all the details about the improvements in security operations since we were exploring some products, but I'm familiar with Saviynt as I was one of their partners for other solutions, and currently, I cannot disclose a lot of performance related to my current roles.

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."
"We decided to go with SailPoint because, as a company, they are flexible, their partner discounts are good, and SailPoint is a really good new generation company."
"The most valuable feature for our customers and for us is the identity data warehouse."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very good product (in my opinion - it is the best product and it took the leading place in Gartner's Magic Quadrant two years in a row) and I can recommend it to all who are looking for a very strong IDM solution (if the price suits you)."
"We are happy with the SailPoint IdentityIQ’s stability."
"Customization of workflows as per business needs is easy and the most effective part is certification for easy compliance and access monitoring and revokes extra access if any."
"The support is very good."
"​The Certification and Provisioning features are most valuable."
"The first valuable feature of the solution is its interface. The second feature of the solution is the level of flexibility it provides."
 

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."
"Certifications could include additional access levels or practices."
"The UI is complex."
"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple."
"There are various functions that don't work in IdentityIQ, including the access request reminder, which doesn't go to the approvals in the proper format, so it's hard for users to read."
"I think that the onboarding framework could be improved."
"Reporting lacks the flexibility of retrieving the vast amount of data that we know is in the database, but not easily accessible."
"They are expensive."
"It is not readily available and cannot be downloaded from the net."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."
"The price of the solution could improve, it is not priced well for smaller businesses to afford."
"You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
