Identity and Access Management Manager at a insurance company with 201-500 employees
Simplifies the task of managing groups and is affordable and easy to implement
I'd like to see it be able to do more than just groups. I'd like it to be able to do some things with email distribution lists as well. It can do that, but there were a few things that were limiting. It was difficult to get it set up, particularly with Azure in the cloud. I'd like that to be a little bit smoother. I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools. We've got a ton of groups, and it does take quite a while to do nightly processing. This is something that definitely needs improvement.
Ziad Khawam - PeerSpot reviewer
Company Manager at cloudbreak
Identity workflows have delivered strong governance but remain complex to install and customize
I would describe the installation of Oracle Identity Governance on-premises as quite complex. Very complex. To install the product, it took us maybe three or four days to get it up and running just to go through the installation procedures. I repeated the same exercise in 2017 because I also migrated from 11c to 12c. That was the migration in 2017 that I managed. The migration took a long time. It took two to three years to be able to literally migrate all the code that I had. So it was quite complex. To summarize it quickly, I would describe the product as complete, very powerful, and very capable. However, it is extremely complex because Oracle relies on their own framework to customize and develop and fine-tune the functionalities. It is not Java, it is not some public framework. It is Java-based more or less, but it has their own Oracle framework for development and that makes the product quite complex to harness.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For each job code, we go through and determine the access they're supposed to have to the system, and based on that job code, we use the query tool so that anybody who is in this job code gets these groups added to them, or conversely, if they change job codes, it removes the ones that they shouldn't have and adds the one they should, which runs every night so that the next day everybody has the job codes they're supposed to have."
"I have found the overall features to be useful."
"Imanami GroupID's UI is good."
"It has a very good response time."
"Its most valuable feature is its scalability."
"There is no doubt that this product scales well."
"The most valuable feature is the set of out-of-the-box connectors."
"Role-based access control (RBAC) has been crucial for role-based management in my current company. Granular access restrictions based on role-based policies were beneficial."
"If you have a large scale organization, then this is the right product because it gives you a lot of opportunities to do customization and custom development."
"The features I like in this solution are the RBAC and the UI customization, particularly that it has a granular level modification."
"The provision and deprovisioning means its more secure, less administration is required, and all the information about an identity is stored in one place."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools."
"The mobile application needs to be improved and there should be chatbox features to allow users to easily reach out for assistance."
"The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO."
"I did not give it 10 out of 10 because of the time it takes for new versions to mature before they are bug free. The product is excessively resource intensive (i.e., hardware requirements) especially in the later versions."
"The management of workflows could use some improvement as well as the overall performance of the product."
"The solution needs to improve its web interface in the next release."
"Identity Manager is very complicated to set up."
"I would like to see more segregation managed through Oracle Identity Manager."
"UI customization is still a challenge as it requires a lot of effort to develop."
"One of my client's audit issues was happening for almost nine months, and my previous client was the biggest client for Oracle, a premium client for Oracle, but still they were not able to resolve the issue."
"Sometimes the support is not able to resolve our issues and they're often changing support engineers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"It is on a yearly basis, and it has the product license fee and the support for it. So, there is the licensing fee, and there is the annual maintenance that includes the support. I don't remember exactly, but we're probably paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 to $30,000 for it per year. We've got a pretty large implementation of it, and for the amount that we do, it is a pretty good deal. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
"Oracle Identity Governance is expensive."
"The licensing is expensive."
"The price is based on the number of users per year."
"Oracle licenses are expensive. I suggest making pricing and licensing decisions that align with architectural requirements and the project's budget."
"I do not know specific pricing but the product is expensive when compared to other OIM products."
"The licensing cost for Oracle Identity Governance is very high, so I'd rate it two out of five."
"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."
"The price of the implementation of Oracle Identity Governance is more of a concern than the cost of the solution. The effort that you have to do to put the solution in place is higher than the license cost."
