We performed a comparison between IBM Security Identity Governance and Intelligence and Microsoft Identity Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SailPoint, One Identity and others in Identity Management (IM)."For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."
"You can make resources. You can import them from Azure or Active Directory and put them in an application. For example, if there is an application that uses a lot of Active Directory groups, you can make the groups available for people. If they need to access that application, you can tell them the resource groups you have for that application. People can do everything by themselves. They do not need anybody else. They can just go to the Omada portal, and they can do it all by themselves. That is terrific."
"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"We don't have to go in and do a lot of the work that we did before. It may have saved us somewhere in the range of 10 to 30 percent of the time we spent on provisioning access."
"Its best feature is definitely the process design. It is quite easy and straightforward to design a process."
"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"Lifecycle management, governance and documentation."

"The product allows us to track the logins easily."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides protection for our company documents."
"It is one of the easiest products to implement, which is one of the main advantages. The integration is easy. Unlike other products, it is not complicated to integrate."
"What makes this solution attractive is the licensing model. Microsoft Identity Manager is included in premium versions of Azure AD and in enterprise agreements such as E3. This makes the solution very attractive to many of our clients who are subscribed to those products."
"It is a stable product. You will experience some issues with it, but it's a good product."
"I appreciate how Microsoft keeps adding new features to Microsoft Identity Manager."
"MIM's most valuable feature is its connectivity with Exchange."
"The features that we find most valuable are security, mobility, and Single Sign-On."
"Omada could communicate better with us about the product roadmap. We haven't gotten any updates about it. The user interface is often a bit difficult to understand. It isn't optimized for small screens, so it doesn't display all of the information clearly, so users need to scroll a lot."
"The UI design needs improvement. One or two years ago, Omada changed its user interface to simplify, but the simplification has not really kicked in."
"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"There's a challenge with handling large amounts of data in this system."
"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"The solution is a bit pricey for some regions."
"Self service center is not always easy to understand."

"MIM's reliability could be improved."
"The governance reporting of the solution can be improved, as it can be difficult to get good, intelligible reports. Microsoft could implement an API of some sort to allow report customization or some form of SQL model, to further customize modules and improve the reporting. That would be a major improvement to the product."
"In terms of the identity and access management solution for on-premises environment, I think Microsoft needs to eliminate or minimize the number of workloads for the solution to run in on-premises environment."
"Instead of using the connectors from the third-party companies, they should make the Microsoft templates available with this product. If Microsoft would increase the number of the box connectors that would be helpful to all the customers who use it daily."
"The product could be more friendly for non-native English speakers. It would also be better if it were more intuitive and visually attractive."
"They have to improve the User Entity and Behavioral Analysis."
"Some valuable features might go unused because they are not well-documented or connected clearly in user guides."
"The information that is available for the Active Directory portal is segregated here and there."
