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.

Unified sign-in has simplified access control and has supported end-to-end identity lifecycle
The authentication process is good, but sometimes the responsiveness to requests for enhancement is very slow. I sometimes face issues with platform stability, flexibility in configuration, and limited API availability. I experience downtimes two to three times per year. OneLogin's support team is sometimes very slow to respond. There is a feature limitation with mapping, as OneLogin does not provide one-to-all mapping. For client deployment, we need to create separate mappings for each request, and we cannot use the same mapping for multiple requests. Other areas that have room for improvement are related to API limitations. If a client requires more APIs, such as 5,000 or 6,000, OneLogin charges more. The API rate limits by default or the standard limit should provide more than 5,000. Additionally, OneLogin could provide more flexibility in configuration. These are the main limitations I have identified with OneLogin.

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."
"Because of all these reasons and by comparison, we almost always recommended Ilex as the best solution for the sake of prompt and efficient project deployment."
"OneLogin has positively impacted the organization mainly by saving time for the IT team, as everything is enabled through MFA and single sign-on with all applications, which saves considerable time and enhances security."
"Around 30 to 40 percent of time is saved since using OneLogin, and the error has been reduced because a single login manages all the applications, significantly cutting down on errors."
"When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop."
"I am impressed with OneLogin as the main data entry point for accessing most websites from a secure login entity, which is why I could really recommend it to other enterprises."
"We are receiving good feedback from end-users for the seamless authentication, as they are very happy with the solution; they do not need to provide passwords multiple times for different applications, only needing to log in once to access all their provided applications, resulting in an excellent user experience."
"OneLogin has had a very positive impact on my organization, especially in terms of security, efficiency, and user satisfaction."
"OneLogin has positively impacted our organization by improving both security and operational efficiency."
"Since implementing OneLogin by One Identity, the biggest positive change I've noticed is how much smoother and faster my workday feels."
 

Cons

"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."
"I believe the initial setup should be more straightforward."
"I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."
"Customer support is very poor."
"During implementation, there were not many features that I remember not using in practice."
"OneLogin needs significant improvement in customer support, as I have personally experienced that reaching out to customer support has not been efficient, with responses being slow and problems not resolved quickly."
"In terms of support, while the overall experience is good, sometimes response times for more complex issues can be a bit slow."
"The uptime has not been great recently, with some outages lasting six, seven, or eight hours."
"OneLogin can be improved by making the initial setup and configuration process simpler, especially for teams like mine that are new to identity and access management."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
