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.

Unified sign-in has simplified access control and has supported end-to-end identity lifecycle
The authentication process is good, but sometimes the responsiveness to requests for enhancement is very slow. I sometimes face issues with platform stability, flexibility in configuration, and limited API availability. I experience downtimes two to three times per year. OneLogin's support team is sometimes very slow to respond. There is a feature limitation with mapping, as OneLogin does not provide one-to-all mapping. For client deployment, we need to create separate mappings for each request, and we cannot use the same mapping for multiple requests. Other areas that have room for improvement are related to API limitations. If a client requires more APIs, such as 5,000 or 6,000, OneLogin charges more. The API rate limits by default or the standard limit should provide more than 5,000. Additionally, OneLogin could provide more flexibility in configuration. These are the main limitations I have identified with OneLogin.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Most of the features are related to banking within this particular IT industry. Security and the market are also important features."
"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."
"The best features of OneLogin by One Identity are its Single Sign-On (SSO) and App Catalog."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"Overall, OneLogin has had a very positive impact on our organization, improving both efficiency and security across our systems by significantly reducing login-related issues such as password resets or account lockouts, reducing the workload on our IT support team, and enabling employees to access the tools they need much faster, which has improved overall productivity."
"OneLogin has positively impacted the organization by improving security, simplifying access management, and reducing password-related support issues."
"OneLogin has definitely saved a lot of time since we do not have to deal with multiple logins anymore."
"The best feature that OneLogin offers in my experience is how much time it saves everyone, not just IT but every single employee in the organization."
"OneLogin has positively impacted our organization by improving security, productivity, and access management efficiency, as employees can securely access multiple enterprise applications with a single authentication process, which reduces login friction and minimizes password-related issues."
"Security incidents have gone down because of the stronger authentication, and our IT team has saved a lot of time on access issues."
 

Cons

"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."
"I would like to see features around federation, authentication, authorization, and AI APIs with a ChatGPT interface."
"If a 'Remember Me' option were available, we could directly proceed with the authentication instead of having to enter our username every time."
"Regarding OneLogin's improvement, I would suggest making the interface more user-friendly and enhancing security features through implementing DLP."
"Overall, OneLogin is solid, but we can implement some improvements with Active Directory connectors."
"In terms of OneLogin, integrations or the integration list could be improved."
"During implementation, there were not many features that I remember not using in practice."
"The admin interface can be improved, and configuring advanced settings feels complex, which costs extra time or technical support to troubleshoot."
"As organizations grow, managing complex role structures, handling exceptions, and integrating older or custom applications can take more effort than expected."
"The initial setup could be more simplified; apart from this, everything is perfect and a very smooth solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable."
"The tool is cheaper compared to typical German products. I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
