Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature that I have found the most valuable is that they are open to connecting with any token. For example, a year ago, we were looking for a soft token, and we started to look for alternatives. They are open to connecting with any token that we looking for."

"The solution has high support capability."

"Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites."

"The integration effort with the end application is quite straightforward and easy."

"The Verify feature: A push method which customers are going for."

"SAML 2.0."

"OAuth 2 is now the de facto standard for API protection and scoped authorized delegation. IBM TAM now supports OAuth 2 and can act as fully compliant OAuth 2 authorization server."

Cons

"The user interface is not quite good and easy to use. There are a lot of menus, and the look and feel is not modern like a modern app."

"The tool needs to improve its cloud capability."

"Looking at their roadmap, they have a broad grasp of the security features which the industry needs."

"Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve."

"An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the newer appliance versions for hosting the virtual appliances on AWS will help."

"The profiling element is incredibly robust, but also equally as complex, it requires an off-site course to be able to understand the context or the plethora of options available."

"The self-service portal needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten. The tool's licensing is monthly."

"The IBM prices are, as ever, extortionate, even with a business partnership, and high levels of discounts."
