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…

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

"This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."
"Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management."
"The solution is flexible."
"The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets."
"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Delinea Privileged Access Service is we can use the server as a jump host. It is simple to manage the accounts on the system."
"The solution provides secure access to environments."
"The reporting is excellent."
"The most valuable features include the automated attestations or recertification... The time that people have to focus on their real jobs and not spend it doing recertifications is huge."
"The policy and role management features are superb. If you have a customer who is willing to go somewhere with role management, then the possibilities are endless with the product. It is well-structured, and the architecture is well-defined."
"It brings simplicity into complex matters."
"An outstanding feature of One Identity Manager, compared to SailPoint, is the dashboard where they present everything. With the dashboard, the customer can see how the integrations have happened."
"The solution offers good integration with other environments such as SAP and Active Directory, et cetera."
"Since we started using One Identity Manager in my organization, we have seen operational efficiency gains, including faster onboarding and de-provisioning, help desk cost reduction, and improved compliance and audit efficiency."
"This is almost a complete solution for us."
"We have seen a slight reduction in help desk calls, as this solution is a self-service product."
 

Cons

"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."
"I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff."
"With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk. Delinea needs to innovate more to match the changing needs of the market."
"The integration with sync could be improved."
"A room for improvement in One Identity Manager is its analytics. Though it's getting better from version to version, the analytics feature still needs improvement. I would appreciate more analytical features in the next release of One Identity Manager, so I can do a better analysis. Another vendor, for example, has a self-certification system where you can send people, then create a type of profile or screen for each person, and the person can see his entitlement and the risks behind that entitlement, so then the person makes a decision on whether he wants to keep or let go of it, and that's an out-of-the-box feature that would be good to see in One Identity Manager. Another feature I'd like to see in One Identity Manager that would be very interesting is integration with SIEM or any log collection product for both access and usage. For example, I'd be able to see that I have access to a particular application and also get information on how many times I've accessed it in the last year, last few months, etc. It's a feature that would be great to have in One Identity Manager."
"When we try to read a huge number of records, such as from SuccessFactors HR with the Starling connector, the sync project sometimes lags."
"It would be nice to have more functionality in terms of connecting SAP systems, provisioning user accounts through SAP systems, and provisioning additional attributes."
"Support often lacks experienced technical personnel, resulting in long wait times and unhelpful solutions."
"Make the logging and debugging easier to find, because I'm always confused, "Where do I have to go to turn this log on if I want to see it?""
"One Identity Manager can be improved in the areas of documentation and training, both of which are severely lacking."
"The One Identity Manager web portal needs simplification."
"Improvements in documentation would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The pricing is moderate."
"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 model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"We are paying for premium support, which is expensive. However, we do receive very good, fast support."
"The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."
"Its price is okay."
"It's costlier that some other products, and there is nothing that fits every solution."
"One Identity Manager's pricing is competitive and in line with what other companies offer."
"Pricing depends on licensing models, such as per-user licensing and feature-based pricing. Additional models like governance, provisioning, and reporting increase costs."
"We pay yearly and per active user. One of the reasons that we chose One Identity Manager is because of the pricing. It is reasonable and affordable compared to other products which we considered before choosing this solution for the company."
"The pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions."
