"We have been able to make our help desk self-sufficient by giving them role-based access. We have been able to reduce service dependency by 40% to 50%.""This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights.""The solution is flexible because you can realize the customer needs. Therefore, it is easy to upgrade specialized things. It provides the flexibly, so you can implement customers' use cases.""It's a huge toolkit, and you can do a lot of stuff with it. You can extend nearly everything, so if you want to build something that may not have been though of by the vendor. Compared with other distributors who design their products to certain specification, you can put in your own processes, because not all companies function the same. You can write what you want, and the process should be like that.""The biggest improvement has been the auditing. Now we have a record of what the users have, what the users have requested and when, and when things were approved. It's all in the same system.""At the time of the onboarding, this is solution that we have interfacing with HR. On the same day an employee is hired, an account is created and available for the manager when the end user arrives. The opposite is true. The moment employment is terminated, the same day everything is disabled, then later deleted.""One Identity Manager offers several features that I found advantageous compared to other tools.""With this product, we been able to bring together HR, IT, and lifecycle management. It is very helpful for managing the Joiner/Mover/Leaver process. We also use it for compliance on all the audits which are around."

Cons
"We use a third-party API called Nebula API to integrate the account for authorization. The time-bound access area in Entra can be a problem. It can be improved in terms of the granularity of the permissions."

"Their technical support's attitude is a bit strange. Quite often, we have to prove that there is a problem with the product rather than having them prove that there is not a problem with the product.""There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal.""I would like it to have an easier integration with phones.""Make the logging and debugging easier to find, because I'm always confused, "Where do I have to go to turn this log on if I want to see it?"""The performance could be better. I also think One Identity could improve its documentation for developers. Many of One Identity's features aren't fully documented. We don't have enough information on how to use them.""One Identity Manager is currently in the process of modernizing its UI, which I hope will result in a more user-friendly interface for its Identity Manager. However, it is uncertain whether they have plans to consolidate their various tools into a unified system to simplify configuration and tasks.""Quest Software should provide notes and documents to customers before they buy the product and license.""We are trying to get rid stability issues from the legacy version. We are now implementing version 8.2, which is so much better than version 6."
