Facilitates improvement through feedback collection, quizzes, and event data generation
Gluu has a mobile app catering to field workers. Normal workers use the web app, a complete cloud-based solution. They log in on any device and access the system. Gluu filters and displays relevant information based on the user's role in the processes. Users can set it up to view as a viewer, worker, manager, or controller of the area. The front end offers different views but provides an easy dashboard for employees. On the dashboard, users can configure it to show tasks, related work instructions, and connected processes. It's very user-friendly, allowing end-users to understand their tasks and processes without needing in-depth knowledge.

Automated lifecycle governance has reduced manual access work and strengthens audit readiness
CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla significantly reduces manual access management efforts due to day-to-day activities. RBAC and role mining actually reduce manual access management efforts significantly. RBAC is the best feature, and it provides AI capabilities. The second feature I value most is identifying lifecycle management for joiner, mover, and leaver scenarios. CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla has one feature that provides strong access reviews, compliance reports, automation, and audit readiness with centralized governance. Centralized governance means we can handle everything at one point, making it a very strong feature. This is integrated with another feature such as SaaS integrations for strong security posture and faster provisioning with reduced operational overhead. These are the four features I value most, and with all my three years of experience, I use and appreciate these four features most. The impact of automation on my access reviews is that it automates the provisioning and de-provisioning. If I were to perform manual tasks such as provisioning and de-provisioning without automation, it would require a lot of time to handle. With this automation, we easily accomplish provisioning or de-provisioning. We simply get the Active Directory users and create the VPNs, cloud, and enterprise applications without any manual intervention. AI-driven role management and RBAC automation significantly reduce service tickets. Without automation, I would need to handle tickets, which involve a lot of manual work and requires additional manual employees. Without automation, this leads to approval delays and manual access assignment efforts. Automated access reviews provide simple audit reports, and by complying with the report, it improves audit readiness while reducing operational workload for IT and security teams.

Pros

"Gluu has a mobile app catering to field workers. Normal workers use the web app, a complete cloud-based solution. They log in on any device and access the system."
"Most of the features are related to banking within this particular IT industry. Security and the market are also important features."
"We had these spreadsheets all over the place, but now we have a library of evidence to consult when needed. Zilla keeps everything in one place. It's not scattered all over anymore."
"After implementing CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla, it puts the organization at a very high security level by reducing risk and threats to platforms."
"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is a very stable product, and I do not see a lot of issues with it most of the time."
"I enjoy the ease of setup and creation of a review. Being a user of the tool or kind of an admin of the tool, the ease of setup of an access review is valuable."
"It helps users work from anywhere, regardless of their location or country. Users do not need to be in their office geo-location to access applications or resources, which provides flexibility for accessing applications wherever they are."
"Overall, CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla helps us automate user access reviews, provisioning, and de-provisioning for both human and machine identities across hybrid and multi-cloud environments."
"The features of CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla that I have found the most valuable include credential masking, time-bound access, and using it for the approval of workflows and audit trails for compliance-related tasks."
"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla offers unique features and is mostly secure and automated, and I strongly recommend this product due to its eighty percent less impact on access reviews, which is useful for audits, compliance, and security governance."
 

Cons

"I would like to see features around federation, authentication, authorization, and AI APIs with a ChatGPT interface."
"The tool integrates AI into the process modeling aspect. I believe this addition will significantly enhance usability. Additionally, it might be beneficial to have the capability to import content from other tools into this platform. Our platform follows its business process modeling notation standard, which differs from BPM. It uses a simpler notation, making it easier. The ability to import content from other tools could accommodate users accustomed to different standards."
"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is lacking in the governance side of identities compared to competitors."
"There is room for improvement in CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla mainly related to automation complexity. Skilled people are required to handle these tasks."
"I believe CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla can be improved by simplifying the workflow and the UI for managing access requests and approvals."
"For improvement, I would suggest enhancing the reporting functionality of CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla, as it could benefit from more customization or advanced filtering for auditing purposes."
"Organizations with highly customized, long-standing legacy IGA tools may face a steep learning curve and complex data migration when moving to this modern AI-driven or cloud-native solution."
"Improvement suggestions for CyberArk include addressing the on-premises deployment processes, which require a very skilled engineer to handle because of the complexity of the environments involved."
"There is a higher cost model for the initial setup as compared to the other ecosystem lock tools like Google Cloud or Azure Cloud identity."
"The first thing that can be improved is the central admin console."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is cheaper compared to typical German products. I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
"The price is reasonable."
"It has been fair because we have been in from the beginning or close to the beginning. I know it is not truly an identity access management system yet, but its price was one of the appealing factors for us to purchase it at the time. It was reasonably priced."
