Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.

Empower users with robust IT security and seamless approval workflows
I raise requests on SailPoint, for example, if there is any server-related access needed. I use it more as an end-user, like raising simple tickets for identity access management SailPoint is more focused on IT security. I find that the approvals that flow through SailPoint are much better than…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."
"Technically, the product does everything one would expect from an identity and access management platform. The product offers robust handling of Active Directory resources."
"The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done."
"Omada Identity Suite has a very powerful workflow engine. It is used for requesting access for approval to everything that's around Access Management and for re-certification purposes."
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."
"It has a very user-friendly interface compared to what we are used to, and it is highly configurable. In the old solution, when we needed to do something, we had to have a programmer sitting next to us, whereas, in Omada Identity, everything is configurable."
"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"The support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Imprivata Identity Governance is the integrations it offers."
"The most valuable features of Imprivata Identity Governance are automation and integration."
"The support is very good."
"The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good."
"The first valuable feature of the solution is its interface. The second feature of the solution is the level of flexibility it provides."
"Access certification and provisioning are two of the solutions most valuable features."
"The solution can be customized to adapt the workflow to our industry, offering considerable flexibility."
"Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable."
"It offers a single source of truth. Everything can be handled from one tier."
"User provisioning and the role management features are good."
 

Cons

"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"Its flexibility is both a good thing and a bad thing. Because it is very flexible, it also becomes too complex. This is common for most of the products we evaluated. Its scalability should be better. It had a few scalability issues."
"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."
"The comprehensiveness of Omada's out-of-the-box connectors for the applications we use could be better. We are getting a new HR system called Cornerstone for which they do not have an out-of-the-box connector, so we have to take the REST connector and play around with it."
"When you do a recalculation of an identity, it's hard to understand what was incorrect before you started the recalculation, and which values are actually updated... all you see are all the new fields that are provisioned, instead of seeing only the fields that are changed."
"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience."
"One thing that we are not so happy about is the user interface. It is a bit dated. I know that they are working on that, but the user interface is quite dated. Currently, it is a little bit difficult to customize the user interface to the need of the business, which is a little bit disappointing. It needs it to be a little bit easier to operate, and it should have a better user interface."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"The GRC portion of the product still needs improvement."
"Imprivata Identity Governance could improve by allowing different permissions per application. You should be able to relegate what group has a certain level of access and another group has a different level of access. Currently, everyone has the same access. I believe this feature is supposed to be in version 7."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We have had a lot of service breaks because of the lack of support."
"The advanced provisioning features require more improvement."
"The solution needs to have more out-of-the-box integration with different applications and solutions."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ could be cheaper."
"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."
"The solution's technical support team's response time and skills need improvement since it is an area where there are shortcomings."
"One needs to understand that SailPoint is into full-fledged IAM practice with a long-term vision, and customers will get a quick ROI with best practices implementation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"Omada isn't cheap or expensive. The licensing model is flexible. I've only had limited interactions with the Omada sales team, but they were positive. They don't sell the customers more licenses than they need. It's important to accurately forecast future usage. For example, we have many licenses that we don't use because we don't have the identities yet. We pay extra, which isn't good."
"It is not cheap. It is expensive, but compared to what we did almost three years ago, it is value for money. It is worth it."
"It is expensive. Fortunately, I had a very good procurement manager on my side, but they are expensive. The closest competitors are also very expensive. You get a full-fledged solution that can do everything you dream of, but you pay for everything."
"The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
"Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"Imprivata Identity Governance's pricing is probably in the middle ballpark."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is highly-priced, and I rate it an eight out of ten for pricing."
"The solution is not cheap."
"As per my knowledge, it runs on a paid partnership model, but I am not sure about it."
"Its price is okay. It provides good value for money. It is subscription-based. You can go for a one-year or three-year subscription."
"In terms of pricing, SailPoint IdentityIQ is affordable. It's not cheap, and it's not expensive, so the solution is in the middle, price-wise. It also didn't have additional costs, even if my company had different teams that took care of auditing and provisioning and projects that used SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"They are expensive."
"You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
"It is affordable licensing."
