Executive SummaryUpdated on Jul 20, 2026

OneLogin and Google Cloud Identity compete in the identity management solutions category. OneLogin seems to have the upper hand due to its extensive integration options and more comprehensive authentication features, appealing to organizations with diverse application needs.

Features: OneLogin offers Single Sign-On, adaptive multi-factor authentication, and extensive application integration options. Google Cloud Identity provides seamless integration within the Google ecosystem, multi-factor authentication, and robust identity management, particularly beneficial for Google Workspace users.

Room for Improvement: OneLogin could improve its user interface and administrative intuitiveness, especially for complex configurations. Enhancements in error transparency and expanded self-service options would be beneficial. Google Cloud Identity might expand its third-party integrations and customization of security policies. Enhancing customer support and versatile integration options could broaden its appeal.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: OneLogin supports both cloud and on-premises setups, providing flexibility for various organizational needs, with generally strong customer support. Google Cloud Identity is cloud-focused, integrating smoothly within Google services but facing potential integration challenges outside of these ecosystems. While support is proactive, there are suggestions for improved responsiveness and handling complex scenarios.

Pricing and ROI: OneLogin's pricing is seen as competitive given its features, but costs can be high with advanced feature additions. Google Cloud Identity offers a straightforward pricing model appealing to businesses in the Google ecosystem, although scalability concerns exist as user numbers grow. Both report positive ROI, mainly by reducing IT workload and enhancing security, with outcomes varying by organization size and needs.

Cloud automation has improved development efficiency and supports secure MFA and SSO

The best features in Google Cloud Identity are their cloud, their VMs, and their cloud VMs, which are too good compared to OCI. Using Google Cloud Identity is beneficial in terms of finance as we are always doing automation and AI, and it is definitely the best. I use multi-factor authentication with Google Cloud Identity. Regarding how Google Cloud Identity helps to improve security, I can say that security is something everyone is using. I do not feel any different. After this, everything will be JWT token and all things we are using. I do not feel any difference in there. I have used the SSO feature, single sign-on, with Google Cloud Identity. In a few words, how Google Cloud Identity affected user management within my organization is that it is not done for my organization but for one of my clients only. I already have the ADs there, but still, it is the best. I think the reporting tools of Google Cloud Identity are good. I cannot comment on these kinds of things for this particular product.

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

"Cloud Identity is a cloud-based Software as a Service model, so you don't need to worry about managing the infrastructure."

"The solution is moderate to difficult to use. I found the approach was practical. Following the steps made it very easy to use."

"Using Google Cloud Identity is beneficial in terms of finance as we are always doing automation and AI, and it is definitely the best."

"The solution has a good amount of features, integrates well with Azure products, is easy to set up, has good stability, and can scale."

"It is a very stable solution. I would rate it a ten out of ten."

"Following the steps made it very easy to use."

"The main control page and the ability to manage all our users from a web-based portal are the most valuable aspects of the solution. That's particularly useful because we're a heterogeneous network."

"The most valuable feature is that you can manage users from one central location."

More Google Cloud Identity pros

"The single sign-on feature of OneLogin by One Identity is amazing."

"Implementing MFA and role-based access control has significantly reduced the risk of unauthorized access, especially with sensitive health records or FinTech data."

"OneLogin has positively impacted our organization by improving both security and operational efficiency through centralized access management and SSO, which has reduced password-related support requests, saving time for both users and the IT team and enhancing overall security."

"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."

"The best features of OneLogin by One Identity are its Single Sign-On (SSO) and App Catalog."

More OneLogin by One Identity pros

Cons

"If I were to suggest enhancements, it would mainly revolve around ensuring compatibility and maximizing integration options with various services."

"They are going ahead and adding a few more things to the Google Cloud premium edition. Their stock management and remote computer management can be improved."

"The one place it could be improved is the password vaulting. The password vaulting does not prevent the admins from reading users' passwords, and that's a debate."

"Overall, I would give a zero out of 10 for Google's support. There is no easy way to navigate issues without paid consultation, making it quite frustrating."

"The pricing for this solution is a little bit higher than AWS and others, which is something that should be improved."

"Technical support is slow."

"There is room for improvement in the configuration of their security policies. It seems quite basic."

"The integration should be made easier."

More Google Cloud Identity cons

"In terms of productivity, initially it was a challenge; people were not used to getting SMS messages on their phones, especially if it's not a company provided phone, and some people even complained that they didn't want to use their phone to get work-related SMS messages even if it's multi-factor authentication."

"OneLogin offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."

"OneLogin is a strong platform overall, but the reporting and advanced configuration options could be more intuitive; some administrative tasks and policies configuration have a learning curve for new users, and improving the user interface and providing more detailed built-in reporting would make management more efficient."

"OneLogin could be improved if there were easy configuration options."

"The pricing could be reduced to make OneLogin more effective."

"OneLogin could be improved by offering a more intuitive admin interface and simpler configuration for advanced features and integrations."

"One thing that can be improved is that we got some false positives when remote employees were switching networks in the first week, which took some time to fine-tune and settle as per our environment, so that can be more simplified in the initial start."

"OneLogin could be improved with more add-ins for integration with Entra ID and Exchange Online."

More OneLogin by One Identity cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is billed on a monthly basis depending on the number of users."

"We probably spend about $50,000 a year on licensing."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."

"When I worked on Cloud Identity, they offered a free or enterprise version. You can synchronize and create up to 100 user identities in the free version. After that, you have to purchase a business or enterprise license. In that model, you'll be charged based on the number of users."

"The pricing is a bit expensive."

"The licensing cost depends on the partners and the relationship between the company and the partners."

"The fees are paid monthly and there are no additional costs other than the licensing fees."

"The solution is not expensive."

More Google Cloud Identity pricing and cost advice

"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."

"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."

"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."

"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."

"The price of the licensing is fine."

"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."

"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."

"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
