We performed a comparison between One Identity Manager and VMware Identity Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SailPoint, One Identity and others in Identity Management (IM)."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 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."
"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."
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."
"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."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"The most valuable feature in Omada is the governance. We work with other products and other product vendors, but the sweet spot in the market for Omada is where things are heavy on governance."
"Its best feature is definitely the process design. It is quite easy and straightforward to design a process."
"The company policies feature is really good because in workflows you can check whether the policies are all working."
"We chose this product for being able to accommodate our requirements. It's very flexible, and it's open to being developed to our requirements."
"The IT shop is a great tool that allows a simple interface for users to see their access, be able to request additional access, and view the workflow approval process to understand where their request is and what any hold-ups may be."
"An outstanding feature of One Identity Manager, compared to SailPoint, is the dashboard where they present everything. With the dashboard, the customer can see how the integrations have happened."
"You can scale it quite big, which is good. It has good sizing."
"The portfolio view simplifies this process, eliminating the need to check through Tableau or other tools."
"This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights."
"We have reduced about 60% of our help desk calls, especially for onboarding and simple tasks that do One Identity automation."
"The most valuable feature is that it will use my credentials to access various parts of the infrastructure or other solutions, such as vRealize."
"The most valuable feature is single sign-on."
"Zero Trust implementation is a great feature."
"When we publish the applications, getting the credentials to log in and keep the application up or running is easy."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"
"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."
"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 Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"They need to improve the cost for small companies."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"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 Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"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."
"We are still on Omada on-prem, but I understand that when Omada is in the cloud, you cannot send an attachment via email. We have some emails with attachments for new employees because we have to explain to them how to register and do their multi-factor authentication. All that information is in the attachment. People have to do that before they are in our system. We cannot give them a link to our Intranet and SharePoint because they do not yet have access. They have to register before that, so I need to send the attachments, but this functionality is not there in the cloud."
"The initial setup was complex."
"The initial setup was complex. We have a lot of different systems. The journey from implementing to joining all the systems was difficult."
"It is particularly slow if you are using it in a large organization."
"I would like to see a lot more integration with our platforms, more on the connector side."
"Right now, they run an on-prem solution. Our preferred solution for cloud is Azure. So, we have yet to determine how we want to take this forward, because at this time, we are only using Graph APIs to do some Azure-related actions."
"Quest Software should provide notes and documents to customers before they buy the product and license."
"The support for DevOps could be improved with quick delivery cycles and multiple delivery streams."
"The initial setup was quite complex because you run into some existing policies that the company already had. There was some trouble with some inconsequential policies."
"it's very dependent on an active directory"
"I would like to have better support for multi-cloud sessions."
"The license could be better."
"There is a need for better user lifecycle management within VMware Identity Manager, along with better user governance...The scalability of the product needs to improve."
"The mobile SSO doesn't work as well on Android."
"The database gets corrupted when used in the cluster. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't."
"The security features could always use improvement, although there has already been a huge improvement from years ago."
"Many of the features that exist in Active Directory do not exist in Identity Manager, which means that people depend on Active Directory."
