Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Auth0 and others in Single Sign-On (SSO)."The on-premises deployment meets restrictions and the end-user is able to control all the configuration in their own IT environment."
"Zero Trust implementation is a great feature."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is that it will use my credentials to access various parts of the infrastructure or other solutions, such as vRealize."
"Its value is when you use it with a Workspace ONE UEM solution as it is part of the ecosystem for VMware Workspace ONE."
"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."
"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"
"The most valuable feature is single sign-on."
"The most valuable feature is the User Experience Designer, which has been very helpful for our project."
"There is no software as a service or PaaS (Platform as a Service) offering from Ilex. The only option is on-premises integration."
"There is a need for better user lifecycle management within VMware Identity Manager, along with better user governance...The scalability of the product needs to improve."
"The license could be better."
"The security features could always use improvement, although there has already been a huge improvement from years ago."
"The mobile SSO doesn't work as well on Android."
"vIDM could be improved with the multi-tenant capabilities that VMware tends to offer—features like customization branding and the integration of the app catalog based on the branding. Since the integration has been at top-level OGs, you were not able to then do rebranding if you were required to use specific user groups to highlight specific applications. At the time, I was personally opening feature requests for these things. I haven't worked with the latest release, so I don't know if these features were already deployed or not."
"I would like to have better support for multi-cloud sessions."
"There are a lot of difficulties whenever people have a lot of configurations in it, basically related to security certificate configurations and integration with VMware Horizon."
"it's very dependent on an active directory"
