Featured Reviews

Himanshu Pandey - PeerSpot reviewer
Lead Consultant at Wipro Limited
Enhancing security and efficiency through robust secret management
With the merging of Thycotic and Centrify into Delinea, it has combined strengths of both products into a single package. Thycotic was strong in certain areas and Centrify in others, and now Delinea integrates these features. I have experience with solutions like CyberArk, BeyondTrust, and Delinea. CyberArk, Delinea, and BeyondTrust are pushing onto cloud-based solutions.

Centralized identity governance has automated lifecycle management and simplifies compliance
One Identity Manager could be improved by making the initial setup and configuration simpler, especially for complex workflows and integrations. The user interface and reporting dashboards could also be more modern and intuitive with better out-of-the-box analytics. Additionally, clearer documentation and faster implementation guidance would help organizations get value more quickly. One specific challenge my team encountered was the complexity during initial configuration, especially when setting up custom workflows and role models which required more time and expertise. We also felt that out-of-the-box reports and dashboards are limited, and more customizable real-time analytics would be helpful. Better documentation and guided setup wizards would make adoption easier, particularly for teams new to identity governance tools. One improvement I think One Identity Manager needs is the enhanced self-service experience. The end-user self-service portal could be more intuitive with clearer guidance for access requests and password resets. Additionally, while integrations are solid, deeper cloud-native connectors and API-driven automation would help in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. A more responsive mobile interface or dedicated app for approvals and tasks would help managers who are often on the go. One more improvement is the built-in predictive insights or trend dashboards around access patterns and risk could improve proactive governance. More descriptive error messages and in-tool troubleshooting tips during setup configuration would reduce dependency on external documentation or support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management."
"The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets because it helps keep track of inventory."
"The stability and performance are excellent."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"Delinea has very good support."
"The solution is flexible."
"This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."
"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
"One Identity Manager provides a wide range of features that enable connection to numerous target systems."
"It is certainly a leading product in the IAM sphere."
"One Identity Manager is highly recommended, as it is a really strong solution to govern identity for any organization with complex access requirements and offers good automation, compliance support, and governance control that, with proper planning, delivers strong value as a capable and mature IAM solution."
"While our journey to find a solution was tiring and we invested a lot of work and knowledge, our expectations have been reached and even exceeded."
"At the time of the onboarding, this is solution that we have interfacing with HR. On the same day an employee is hired, an account is created and available for the manager when the end user arrives. The opposite is true. The moment employment is terminated, the same day everything is disabled, then later deleted."
"One Identity Manager impacts my organization positively."
"The short version is that we gained significant insight into the issues of access governance. This allowed us to turn an auditing nightmare into praise from our auditors."
"One Identity Manager has positively impacted my company by minimizing manual effort, providing time savings, efficiency, and data integrity."
 

Cons

"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration because we have experienced multiple lockouts due to expired passwords."
"It is difficult to integrate the product with other IT systems."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"My thoughts about support of Delinea in general are that they are so so."
"Enhancing the solution by incorporating additional features to make it comprehensive would be beneficial. It would be more convenient to have a complete package solution that consolidates all the features in one place, making it easier to manage. Currently, I am required to access two separate servers for reports, which could be avoided if all the necessary features were available in a single location. This would be highly advantageous for managing everything effectively."
"The initial setup is a bit complex, but once the infrastructure is there and all the components have been installed, it's easy and straightforward to maintain."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"One Identity Manager's support model has room for improvement, especially when compared to competitors like Omada and SailPoint, which offer a more extensive global presence and support network."
"The solution's intuitiveness requires almost a complete redesigning in terms of user experience."
"The initial set up was quite complex. It takes quite some time to get use to this product because of its complexity."
"A tool called Analyzer is included to assist with birthright generation. The tool isn't very user-friendly."
"The technical support is non-existent. It is not worth talking about."
"I would like to integrate automated testing with One Identity, and it would be great to have some support from the vendor on here."
"To improve Identity Manager by One Identity, the web portal could get some enhancement to make it easier to use, more user-friendly, and intuitive, and the performance could also be improved, especially on the large SQL datasets."
"They have bad support. Sometimes, they're fast, and sometimes not. They have 24-hour support, so when you message them, they try to fix their problems. One Identity can give you a technical engineer who can guide you through what to do or give you custom scripts for a problem."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is moderate."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"Pricing depends on licensing models, such as per-user licensing and feature-based pricing. Additional models like governance, provisioning, and reporting increase costs."
"It was okay for us. It was not too much for us. It was nearly the same as other products. It was not expensive."
"One Identity Manager is fairly priced."
"One Identity Manager is expensive."
"Prices in Turkey are high due to inflation, a challenge we've heard about from our customers."
"It has helped to reduce customer costs."
"It's not cheap, but the pricing is okay. Other applications cost about the same."
"The licensing cost is per user."
