Managing Director at a tech services company with 1-10 employees

Strong single sign on security comes packaged with simplicity in this on-premises-only solution

We do not have a huge usage load in our implementation of the product at our company. We know this because we have been working with clients and speaking with them as users and they literally have thousands of users on the product. Based on their testimonial and their lack of problems in performance, the scalability is there. In our company on our projects, we stay in the range of only hundreds of users, which is very small in comparison. As far as the number of people we require for maintenance, we are the level two maintenance with the vendor. To use and to configure on the client's side — for our clients — they really should never require in excess of one person full-time or the equivalent. Sign&Go has got a pretty low administrative requirement as far as maintenance is concerned. On our side, as far as the second level of support, I would say we get very few requests for actual issues with the product. The product stability is good. So, as far as running the maintenance on our end, we tend to only have a request is when a client needs to integrate a new workstation or do something else to expand their operations.

Provides robust identity governance with deep customization and advanced integration for complex environments

One Identity Manager is a very robust tool with plenty of out-of-the-box features in the identity and access management space, and it is very easy to customize and fits for very complex platforms. For multinational companies or those with various locations managing their identities and applications, it is very easy and very robust in nature. It also helps streamline aspects of application governance, including access decisions, compliance, and auditing. It has a module called access recertification or attestation for recertification and a robust segregation of duties engine, as a governance platform that collects data and provides a variety of dashboards for management. One Identity Manager provides IGA for difficult-to-manage aspects of SAP, and I can manage by assigning profiles, roles, and groups. There's also a role-in-role concept where I can assign a role to another role. One Identity Manager delivers SAP-specialized workflows and business logic. For example, if my SAP solution is integrated with SAP GRC and I want to request a segregation of duties check with GRC before provisioning an SAP role, all those tasks can be done in One Identity Manager. It is easy to manage and provides a single platform for enterprise-level administration and governance of users' data and privileged accounts, but one must know the product. Learning One Identity Manager takes some time, around four to five months, but once learned, managing applications such as SAP or Active Directory becomes easy. One Identity Manager helps minimize gaps in governance coverage for test, dev, and production servers, and it provides internal deployment tools that make it straightforward to manage code across different environments.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The on-premises deployment meets restrictions and the end-user is able to control all the configuration in their own IT environment."

"One Identity has the biggest out-of-the-box functionality set. I've worked with other platforms like SAP that have a lot of features, but One Identity Manager is on top."

"It is a flexible because it is customizable. It allows you to build anything on top of it."

"One Identity Manager offers identity-centric security, acting as a single source of truth by centralizing identity data for users, devices, and applications."

"The solution does lots of things that we did manually before."

"The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution."

"The Data Importer is a great tool to create an ETL. It generates code which is easy to maintain later without the tool."

"For the recertification and segregation of duties, it's easier to know all the information about our employees. If we need to delete some information, we can do it from a central point, then it can be deleted on all our searches. This is very good for GDPR."

"It provides a unified view of logically connected solutions."

Cons

"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."

"The technical support could be improved, particularly for architects with advanced knowledge."

"Visually, I would like it to be more user-friendly."

"The performance is quite bad, but this is because we have a very old version."

"The downside of the product is it is complex and you need an implementation partner to help you develop it. You can't do it on your own."

"The framework is robust and flexible, allowing companies to easily adopt and extend the schema as needed."

"One Identity Manager can be made more user-friendly for end users."

"It has problems with performance. This is a very serious issue for us. Other than that, it's really capable. The performance is what is missing. It's really poor."

"I would like to have more advanced features and reporting added to One Identity Manager."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"It is fairly priced because they provide all the features by default. That is why they charge a bit more than other vendors. I am not sure about the exact cost part, but One Identity is a little bit more expensive than IBM and other tools."

"Pricing depends on licensing models, such as per-user licensing and feature-based pricing. Additional models like governance, provisioning, and reporting increase costs."

"One Identity Manager is expensive."

"I rate One Identity seven out of 10 for affordability. It's reasonably priced."

"One Identity Manager is cost-efficient."

"It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."

"It is cost-effective. I do not know about the other regions, but here in the Middle East, the competitors are almost double the price."

"One Identity Manager's pricing is competitive and in line with what other companies offer."
