We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I have found this solution to be really practical and when a user wants to log in, it is effortless and runs smooth.""From the integration point of view, it supports SAML, OIDC, and OAuth. For legacy applications that don't have support for SAML and other new protocols, it provides single sign-on access to end-users. From the integration compatibility point of view, it is highly capable.""The solution has powerful authentification and authorization. It offers a good way to increase security.""It's a good solution for identification and access management.""Its stability and UI are most valuable.""The tool provides a password vault, single sign-on, and multifactor authentication. It offers various authentication methods like fingerprint integration, one-time passwords, or tokens sent via email or SMS. This ensures secure access to your accounts by providing multiple authentication options.""The most valuable feature of IBM Security Access Manager, at least for my company, is multi-factor authentication. That's the only feature my company is using. The solution works well and has no glitches. IBM Security Access Manager is a very good solution, so my company is still using it."

"The product allows customization via custom code.""Once it is set up, it is easy to use and it integrates with most of the products on the market.""Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products.""From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves.""In general, the customization that is offered is very good. The company that I am working with currently is using this feature quite extensively.""The product supports customization.""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.""My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on."

Cons
"The solution could be classified as a hilt system. There are a lot of resources being used and it is suitable for very large enterprises or the public sector.""The user interface for users and administrators could be improved to make it easier. Automating some functions could also be beneficial.""They can improve the single sign-on configuration for OIDC and OAuth. That is not very mature in this product, and they can improve it in this particular area. OIDC is a third-party integration that we do with the cloud platforms, and OAuth is an authorization mechanism for allowing a user having an account with Google or any other provider to access an application. Organizations these days are looking for just-in-time provisioning use cases, but IBM Security Access Manager is not very mature for such use cases. There are only a few applications that can be integrated, and this is where this product is lagging. However, in terms of configuration and single sign-on mechanisms, it is a great product.""What we'd like improved in IBM Security Access Manager is its onboarding process as it's complex, particularly when onboarding new applications. We need to be very, very careful during the onboarding. We have no issues with IBM Security Access Manager because the solution works fine, apart from the onboarding process and IBM's involvement in onboarding issues. If we need support related to the onboarding, we've noticed a pattern where support isn't available, or they don't have much experience, or we're not getting a response from them. We're facing the same issue with IBM Guardium. As we're just focusing on the multi-factor authentication feature of IBM Security Access Manager and we didn't explore any other features, we don't have additional features to suggest for the next release of the solution, but we're in discussion about exploring ID management and access management features, but those are just possibilities because right now, we're focused on exploring our domain.""There are a lot of areas that can be improved, but the main area is the lack of customization. You cannot easily customize anything in the product. It is not easy to tweak the functionality. It is challenging to change the out-of-the-box functionality.""The user interface needs to be simplified, it's complex and not user-friendly.""Configuration could be simplified for the end-user."

"There are problems with stability.""The technical support is not very good at all.""There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution.""In the next release, they should focus more on use cases related to customer access management, customer identity, and access management.""The performance of Oracle Access Manager could be improved. It should be quick to install, but it wasn't, so this is another area for improvement. The Oracle Access Manager console also has room for improvement because it's slow.""The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure.""The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features.""The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The license and costs depend on the amount range of users you have. For just approximately 2,000 users, the price is practical and fair. However, when you have 20,000 users, it starts to become really expensive, and the discount per user is not attractive enough to go ahead and purchase."
  • "It costs about 300K AED for a year. Its pricing is a bit on the higher end, but in comparison to other products in the market, its price is still better. There are lots of other products that are very costly."
  • "The product is not expensive. It depends on the number of users."
  • More IBM Security Verify Access Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Can be expensive as a solution."
  • "The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
  • "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 product is a little expensive."
