Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Auth0 and others in Single Sign-On (SSO)."The integration effort with the end application is quite straightforward and easy."
"The Verify feature: A push method which customers are going for."
"Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites."
"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."
"SAML 2.0."
"It is user-friendly. Someone who doesn’t have a lot of IT knowledge can work with the product easily."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."
"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
"The Directory is secure. It's our user store, and it's important to keep our members safe. The product does well with that."
"IWA is an out-of-the-box feature. The SAML-based federation is standard for all tools. However, CA Single Sign-On has made the federation configuration way too simple and handy to set up and use."
"Authentication & Authorization are important because all the sites need authentication for security purposes. That has been handled pretty well all these years with SSO."
"We almost never have outages nor see slowdowns."
"It provides the breadth and the width to provide solutions for the different kinds of technologies which we have."
"The solution is easy to use for our managers."
"It's quite scalable."
"If you look at our organization, and really all financial institutions, we have a lot of legacy apps. So it really helps to get Single Sign-On."
"Looking at their roadmap, they have a broad grasp of the security features which the industry needs."
"The self-service portal needs improvement."
"Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve."
"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."
"An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for the newer appliance versions for hosting the virtual appliances on AWS will help."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
"There is room for improvement in making the UI more user-friendly."
"The user interface could be improved and made more user friendly."
"We would like to the OAuth be more stable, more issues being fixed rather than not."
"An area Siteminder could improve on is that there are a few limitations, in terms of new protocols for OpenID. If I want to have different scopes, the features are limited. They also do not have APIs exposed, which is a major drawback. API is a feature I would like to see included in the next release."
"As we are moving in to the mobility space, this is where we really see SiteMinder and their other product really come together to provide a solution base to a different area where the IoT is coming, the different business communications are happening. All of those things require authentication and we really want to see this product grow into that role."
"They need to make configurations easier, and not have the engineer having to guess what will happen when he changes a particular setting."
"To add more value to this solution it needs to be more user-friendly."
"I would prefer to see their SAML integration be a more streamlined and easier interface."
"The main thing is we do not have the traceability and good monitoring that CA can provide us to capture problems when they occur."
"In future releases, I would like to see maybe more capabilities with some more modern authentication."
