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.

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."
"Once it is set up, it is easy to use and it integrates with most of the products on the market."
"We have not had issues surrounding any failure or instability, and we use it with remote work to access our applications from anywhere, 24/7."
"I was able to use the new SAML Service Provider capability to consume a federated token and exchange it for an OAM token for subsequent session requests across multiple applications."
"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."
"The MFA is the most valuable aspect."
"The scalability of the solution is good. We haven't felt we've been restricted from expanding as necessary and we haven't heard of any issues from our clients."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"I would tell others that this solution is reliable. If they are looking for a solution that is reliable and that is scalable, then this is a good one."
 

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."
"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."
"Technical support needs improvement, they could be 200% better. The reason that most people are having problems is because of the support they provide."
"I would expect a product with a reputation like Oracle to be very stable and it is not in my opinion."
"Customer Service: Poor. The EBS Access Gate support was delivered as a patch and support was not able to solve various problems, which I believe to be attributes to more current versions of OAM and WebLogic not being backwards compatible with the documented solution."
"There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution."
"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."
"To improve Oracle Access Manager, they should consider integrating more policies and enhancing automation, especially in managing server load and cache cleanup."
 

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."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
"The tool is affordable."
"The product is a little expensive."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."
"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
