Reduces the number of manual tasks and helpdesk tickets, but it is not easy to operate and maintain
Error handling can be improved. From an on-premise perspective, internal support can be improved. It is quite a technical and difficult application to maintain. A very specialized skill set is required to operate and maintain it, which is the most difficult part. The process to upgrade versions is also quite tricky. 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. Their technical support is good, but there is room for improvement. It is not an easy product to support. They helped us set it up a little bit, but it gets difficult for them to handle more complex problems.

Scalable access governance system that removes manual approvals and makes teams more productive
We use this solution for identity governance and to understand who has access to what and whether that access should be granted or not. We also use it for access to recertification automation which provides a complete report of who has what access in the organization at the press of a button. We…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."
"The most appealing aspect of Omada Identity is its self-service upgrade system."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"Our customers have benefited from Omada Identity automating the certification process. Most of our customers were using manual methods for user access certification. With Omada Identity, you can automate almost all of it, which means that certification now becomes on demand. You don't have to wait for two or three months to execute a certification timeframe. Instead, you can do certifications as often as you want."
"Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable."
"SailPoint has allowed us to ensure the right people have the right access and to the rights things."
"The tool is quite stable and user-friendly."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."
"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."
"One of the most valuable aspects of SailPoint is its open integration interface."
"The basic concept is most valuable. I like how they have designed the solution. They create an Identity Cube, and then they do all the processes and configuration around the Identity Cube."
"It is simple and easy to implement."
 

Cons

"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"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."
"The current reporting tools in Omada are limited, but we expect significant improvements in the new version."
"Omada Identity's user interface needs improvement, especially for new users."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"The backend is pretty good but the self-service request access screen, the GUI, needs improvement. It's an old-fashioned screen. Also, Omada has reports, but I wouldn't dare show them to the business because they look like they're from 1995. I know they are working on these things and that’s good, because they’re really needed."
"In our organization, all the data is event-driven, which means that if an attribute is changed in the source system, it can be updated within a few seconds in all end-user systems. There is room for improvement in Omada regarding that. Omada is still batch-based for some processes, so sometimes it can take an hour or even four hours before the execution is run and the update is sent."
"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."
"It is not readily available and cannot be downloaded from the net."
"The solution, in general, is quite expensive."
"There is a need for further enhancements, specifically in the multifactor authentication capabilities."
"The connectors are far too manual. This needs to be automated a bit."
"The solution needs to have more out-of-the-box integration with different applications and solutions."
"The price of IdentityIQ could be lower. There are additional costs when you buy the licenses, and they force the customers to pay for them."
"Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting."
"Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not cheap. None of these solutions are cheap, but we have good pricing at least for now from a licensing perspective."
"It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
"The pricing is okay."
"Omada is too expensive. We are in the automotive industry. The pricing might be high because most of the other customers are in the insurance or banking sectors, but it's steep for an auto supply company."
"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."
"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."
"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 continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
"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."
"The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."
"The pricing is a little bit higher than other tools."
"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
"It is a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."
"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."
"This is an expensive solution. I would rate it a two and a half out of five for pricing."
