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.

Offers a user-friendly experience with an intuitive interface and makes customization a breeze
With centralized user management, data is effortlessly pulled from various systems like SOAR and HR, simplifying user creation and data maintenance. This allows for easy user editing, role assignment based on HR attributes or department affiliation, and streamlined account allocation based on review levels, departments, or the entire organizational structure. Our Access Control in One Identity Manager is 99 percent automated saving us nearly 100 percent of our time. One Identity Manager simplifies SAP administration by providing a centralized view of even logically disconnected SAP accounts. It offers a flexible helpdesk approach. We can either leverage its built-in model or create our own UI accessible to specific teams based on their applications. This ensures each team sees only relevant tickets for their area, streamlining access management for disconnected applications. One Identity Manager can connect SAP accounts to employee identities under governance. One Identity Manager simplifies Identity Governance and Administration for SAP, a complex system to manage in this regard. It empowers us to effectively manage SAP profiles, roles, and groups, ensuring their proper assignment to corresponding SAP accounts. The solution delivers SAP-specialized workflows and business logic. One Identity Manager integrates with its Privilege Access Management solution to provide more granular control. This means we can define different account types within One Identity Manager, such as normal, admin, and privileged accounts. By assigning privileged access only to designated accounts, we can restrict access and permissions and enhance overall security control. One Identity Manager offers a user-friendly experience with an intuitive interface. It even provides a webshop for end users, allowing them to easily request new roles or accounts in various systems with a simple two-click process. Having the right resources makes customization a breeze. While understanding customer needs and translating them into technical specifications requires some processing upfront, One Identity's suite of tools simplifies the actual back-end work. From drag-and-drop interfaces for workflows and reports to scripting and C# coding supported by existing SDKs, customization options cater to all users. This dynamic application provisioning solution uses business roles to map our company's organizational structure. In other words, access to applications is determined solely by our assigned role within the company hierarchy. This role-based approach ensures users only receive the permissions they need based on their specific function, preventing unnecessary access. One Identity Manager streamlines our cloud governance by providing a centralized platform to manage user access permissions across all connected cloud applications. This eliminates the need for individual provisioning for each app, ensuring efficient authorization control. We have significantly improved our compliance posture with One Identity Manager. Previously, auditors identified numerous findings during manual audits, requiring extensive time and resources to address. With One Identity Manager, we've automated the onboarding, offboarding, and joiner processes, achieving a 95 percent closure rate on audit points. This centralized solution streamlines the auditor experience, allowing them to efficiently obtain information from the IAM team, saving both the organization and auditors valuable time. We have minimized inconsistencies in how our governance policies are applied across test, development, and production environments. One Identity Manager helps us create a privileged governance stance to close the security gap between privileged users and standard users by managing those accounts separately. This segregation prevents unauthorized access, as standard accounts cannot hold privileged rights and vice versa. This clear separation helps to close the security gap between these user types. One Identity Manager streamlines our procurement and licensing processes, allowing our initially large operations team to focus on more strategic tasks. By automating license management for connected applications like SAP and Azure Active Directory, the solution eliminates the risk of human error – forgotten access removals for unused licenses are a thing of the past. Now, licenses are automatically assigned and reclaimed based on user activity, ensuring efficient resource allocation. This means new hires receive immediate access, and vacated licenses become readily available, freeing the operations team from manual license management headaches. One Identity Manager streamlines application access decisions by automating the provisioning and de-provisioning of user access based on HR data. This eliminates manual intervention and delays for both HR and department personnel. When an employee changes departments, their access permissions are automatically updated in the identity management system, granting them the necessary tools to perform their new duties immediately. It also streamlines the automation of identity and access controls, making it easier to implement a zero-trust security model where every user and device is verified before granting access. While our audit processes were once cumbersome, requiring auditors to chase down reports from individual SAP administrators, everything is now centralized. One Identity Manager stores all application and database information in a single location, streamlining reconciliation efforts.

Staff and students can now reset their passwords using their enrolled two-factor device as the authentication mechanism
We've been a OneLogin customer for several years now. While I like the platform, there have been some challenges. A great example is the amount of work needed with that webhook for the enrollment user experience. This functionality is native to some competing products. That's one area where we've leaned on our account rep over the years. They shouldn't rely on the customer to make this experience better. This is one feature request that hasn't been implemented yet. At the same time, they've implemented other features we've requested. One is the ability to use a personal email address as a factor. Initially, they didn't have that. We pushed hard on our account team for about two years before it was finally released. It's a give-and-take. Some of the product's features aren't perfect, but we've had some success pushing fixes to the development team that needs to happen. They've done a decent job. However, there are some fixes that they don't have an interest in. A lot of what I described was before OneLogin was acquired by Quest/One Identity. Things have changed. It doesn't feel like they're driving the product as OneLogin was. It may be because it's a new product to them, and they're still trying to get the lay of the land, process feature requests, etc., but it's not moving as fast as before. We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications. The issues have high visibility. It's gotten better, but it's still there. It raises questions about whether One Identity can support the platform they've acquired. How are they enhancing the product? And how are they supporting the product and the service in the future? Those are two essential questions. There are also lots of nice-to-haves, but that's the case with any product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"It has a lot of out-of-the-box features. It is flexible, and there are a lot of possibilities to configure and extend it. It is user-friendly. It has an interface that is end-user or business-user friendly."
"The most appealing aspect of Omada Identity is its self-service upgrade system."
"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."
"Technically, the product does everything one would expect from an identity and access management platform. The product offers robust handling of Active Directory resources."
"User-friendly solution."
"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"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."
"In terms of what the most valuable feature of One Identity Manager is, that would be hard to say because the tool is great overall. There's not really one feature you'd prefer over other features, but what's really great, in my opinion, is the fact that the provisioning is really stable and accurate, and it's a process my company trusts. This means that without a lot of maintenance, I can be pretty sure that as soon as my alternative source gives a new identity or gives new information about a particular identity, everything will be transformed and executed the right way. My company has tried other solutions and there's always a struggle with the provisioning system in terms of knowing what systems work, but with One Identity Manager, this issue doesn't happen. It's also a stable system which I like."
"One Identity is one of the most feature-rich platforms on the market. It covers every use case. The user interface has been improved, making it easier to make it look like what customers want. It's easier to customize than a lot of competition solutions. There are nearly a thousand built-in processes that you can edit and customize according to your needs."
"The back-end, its capabilities, and workflows are very good."
"This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights."
"Workflow management is an important feature. With other identity management products, there was no workflow management so we had to build it ourselves."
"The most valuable feature is the JML. Unlike other identity manager tools, the JML is more customizable, making it easier to find."
"One Identity Manager offers identity-centric security, acting as a single source of truth by centralizing identity data for users, devices, and applications."
"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%."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"It's super useful to have a single pane of glass when it comes to access management."
"Ease of integration with AD."
"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."
"In my role, the most valuable features are two-factor authentication and self-service password reset. The most helpful feature for the institution as a whole is probably the single sign-on. As an IT director, I care about security and ease of use."
"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."
"The directory integration and SCIM provisioning are probably the best features compared to competitors."
 

Cons

"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."
"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience. From a technical perspective, it is a very good product, but from an end-user experience perspective, it significantly lacks."
"The web GUI can be improved."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"Omada Identity's user interface needs improvement, especially for new users."
"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 UI design needs improvement. One or two years ago, Omada changed its user interface to simplify, but the simplification has not really kicked in."
"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."
"The downside of the product is it is complex and you need an implementation partner to help you develop it. You can't do it on your own."
"Visually, I would like it to be more user-friendly."
"Using dynamic business roles can degrade the performance of One Identity Manager."
"A tool called Analyzer is included to assist with birthright generation. The tool isn't very user-friendly."
"It has problems with performance. This is a very serious issue for us. Other than that, it's really capable. The performance is what is missing. It's really poor."
"The product's GUI could be more user-friendly."
"The downside of the product is it is complex and you need an implementation partner to help you develop it. You can't do it on your own."
"The relationship with the customers is extremely bad."
"They have downtime twice a year or once in six months. During the downtime, the SSO page did not come up. When users wanted to get to their email, they were redirected to the OneLogin page, but the page did not come up, and MFA and logins failed. It completely crippled us."
"We've been experiencing some pain points since the acquisition. For example, there have been some outages we didn't see previously, which are a big topic with my executive team. You have hundreds of applications relying on this service for login. If the service is unavailable, nobody can log into these applications."
"having a RESTful implementation instead of RPC would have been more desirable."
"I'd like OneLogin to have a customization section that displays the company's offerings, categorized by different topics."
"The tool must be made more robust."
"The uptime has not been great recently, with some outages lasting six, seven, or eight hours."
"While I initially used OneLogin's desktop feature to extend SSO, I discontinued it two years ago due to limitations."
"In terms of managing the users on a large scale, it would be easier if they had some kind of user management portal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 pricing is too high for SMBs."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"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."
"The pricing is okay."
"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 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 Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"One Identity Manager is fairly priced."
"The pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions."
"The price of One Identity Manager is cheaper than SailPoint."
"My clients have been using it for a long time now. They have looked at other products as well, so it seems worth the price."
"The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."
"Its price is okay."
"There is a one-time licensing cost, and there is also a yearly subscription fee."
"We are paying for premium support, which is expensive. However, we do receive very good, fast support."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
