Comprehensive documentation streamlines implementation with opportunity to improve user experience
I typically use Delinea Privileged Access Service within my IT infrastructure management for consulting, to secure privileged access, recording, session recording, password vault, etcetera The most common solution I find effective for protecting sensitive data is the most common features of…
Neha Chhangani - PeerSpot reviewer

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

"The privileged account management feature is what I like most."
"Overall, the product works well and is very good tool, which functions well."
"The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution."
"From my personal experience, it is very easy to manage from one single console as I am managing all my PAM solutions, IAM solutions, team solutions, and the active directory through One Identity Manager, making it easy for us to manage all user level access and governance in a single place."
"After implementing One Identity Manager, we achieved clear, measurable improvements in identity and access management, with user onboarding reduced from two to three days to a few hours, faster access provisioning for new employees, immediate off-boarding security, and 100% instant de-provisioning of access for leavers, while eliminating the risk of orphan or active unused accounts."
"The solution offers good integration with other environments such as SAP and Active Directory, et cetera."
"One Identity Manager is the tool I need, and I like it."
"Even without any customization, if you install it, configure it, it's ready... It's very powerful. Without any customization, it starts working."
"Overall, One Identity Manager is one of the best in the market."
 

Cons

"It is difficult to integrate the product with other IT systems."
"With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk."
"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration because we have experienced multiple lockouts due to expired passwords."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"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."
"I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff."
"Some internal structures are in place because of already depreciated functions back from the time when the solution was used for software deployment and as a help desk."
"One Identity Manager has room for improvement in areas such as being more low-code, since it currently requires some coding knowledge."
"The technical support is non-existent. It is not worth talking about."
"One Identity Manager's user interface can be confusing due to its multiple UIs."
"I would like to see the possibility of being supported during the migration to the Angular portal as an improvement in One Identity Manager."
"The implementation of the tool and management on the infra side is a bit difficult."
"The UI and user experience side of things needs improvement."
"It can have a clearer navigation map of the user interface and user provisioning."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"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 is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"The pricing is moderate."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"I rate One Identity seven out of 10 for affordability. It's reasonably priced."
"It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."
"It is fairly priced because they provide all the features by default. That is why they charge a bit more than other vendors. I am not sure about the exact cost part, but One Identity is a little bit more expensive than IBM and other tools."
"The price of One Identity Manager is cheaper than SailPoint."
"One Identity Manager's pricing is competitive and in line with what other companies offer."
"Start with an operations team that is motivated to learn a lot in a short period of time. The longer you wait, the more expensive it will be to get the right level of expertise in this area."
"Prices in Turkey are high due to inflation, a challenge we've heard about from our customers."
"Its price is okay."
