It helps us onboard and offboard users more efficiently, but the configuration is complex and the UI could be better
We are able to onboard new user accounts much faster by automating the process and standardizing our operations globally. Previously, there were many individual processes and manual admin interactions. We also see a lot of cost savings and benefits because of automation and standardization. It decreases the work for admins while boosting user productivity. I would estimate that we've reduced admin work by about 30 percent. Omada's identity analytics also help us make informed decisions more efficiently and reduce the cost of our IGA program a little. We can also automate the disabling of user accounts when employees leave to prevent unauthorized access.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."
"The thing that I find most valuable is that Omada consists of building blocks, which means that you can configure almost anything you want without using custom code, making it pretty easy to do. It's possible to connect to multiple target systems and to create one role that consists of different permissions in the different target systems. So one role in Omada can make sure that you have an account in three different systems."
"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"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 key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."
"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."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"Saviynt has better integration with enterprise systems like SAP, Microsoft, Adobe, and AWS."
"The feature that we use the most is the global, third-party user management."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."
"The product is flexible to use."
"Considering the initial cost and the basic features, this is a good solution that provides integration with both on-premise and cloud applications."
"The most valuable features of Saviynt are database utility and report generation. These two features have a major impact, particularly when you are trying to create a report because, in other systems, you need to use a third-party utility such as a BI tool or any other reporting tool to fetch the data and send out the report to a third party team. In Saviynt, it's a system within a system, so you don't have to use any third-party tool because you can directly do your query and write that code on Saviynt and then send that report to the team."
 

Cons

"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"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 more training. As someone who is new to this world, I don't feel that the courses Omada provides are good enough. They should also improve the documentation. It is difficult to learn how to use the solution by yourself"
"The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up."
"Omada could make it a bit more convenient to send emails based on events automatically. Having that functionality is critical for us to maintain transparency."
"Omada Identity's user interface needs improvement, especially for new users."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."
"The custom application integration is a little complex, and this tool doesn't provide so many plugins or additional applications."
"According to feedback I've received, some users prefer SailPoint over Saviynt in real complex environments. SailPoint has its provisioning platform. Complex integrations may pose challenges in scenarios like a large bank with thousands of users, making SailPoint a preferred choice for some."
"Saviynt cannot customize based on customer needs."
"The biggest drawback is that for every change you want to make, you have to go back to them and ask for it."
"The technical support team's response time could be improved."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
"The customer support and implementation services need to be improved."
"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Being Dutch, I can only say that it is extremely expensive, but all software products are expensive. If you have 38,000 users, then even one dollar or one euro per person would amount to a significant amount of money. Because of the high number of users, anything gets expensive very fast here."
"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"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 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."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"Omada is expensive."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
