More Microsoft Entra ID Governance Pros →

"IdentityIQ's best features are the hassle-free user experience and security.""Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable.""The community is very active and when I had questions about an issue, I was able to find the resources.""Has a great certification module with intuitive options.""A feature of SailPoint IdentityIQ that I like best is that it has good integration with other platforms. My company is using ADP here in Brazil, and SailPoint IdentityIQ works very, very well with it. My company is also using the solution for governance evaluation, segregation, and other access tests. For my company, SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very important solution, especially because it's automated, and there's a huge audit and risk issue here in Brazil.""The solution is pretty stable and simple to use.""This solution is great for providing control access across your environment.""SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."

Cons
"One area for improvement in Microsoft Entra ID Governance could be providing more granular control over security policies.""The platform's configuration process needs improvement.""The solution lacks the feature to work well with third-party applications."

More Microsoft Entra ID Governance Cons →

"SailPoint IdentityIQ has a primitive AI engine.""I would like for the next release to have a more user-friendly interface.""The product must improve its support.""They can work on their strategy for the on-premise version. They have to decide whether and for how long they will support the on-premise version. The new features first appear in the cloud, and after that, they are released for the on-premise version. In the cloud, you have more options and flexibility, which is absolutely normal. They have to have a clear strategy regarding whether they'll support the on-premises version with the same focus. The licensing for on-premise and cloud is a little bit different. They can make it the same.""The user interface is not very user-friendly.""Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time.""The cost of this solution is high. The technical assistance center could be improved. They're very good, but considering the intricacies of the solution, they can further improve.""What it doesn't do is provide notice in the event of a vulnerability or offense from the security."
