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.

Streamlines access management with top-notch support, and a user-friendly interface, making it a highly effective solution for businesses of all sizes

During my evaluation of various products, one standout feature of OneLogin that impressed me was their mobile app for authentication through push notifications. Unlike traditional methods involving rotating codes, the OneLogin app simplifies the process by sending a push notification asking if the login attempt is legitimate. If confirmed, the login proceeds seamlessly. The primary benefit is its user-friendly interface, making it particularly accessible for non-technical users. One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance. Their sales team has also been highly responsive and helpful in connecting me with necessary resources, although we haven't faced any major challenges.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors."

"The most valuable feature of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."

"We don't have to go in and do a lot of the work that we did before. It may have saved us somewhere in the range of 10 to 30 percent of the time we spent on provisioning access."

"Omada's onboarding features reflect our processes for onboarding new employees well. That is the primary reason we use this solution. We use role-based access control. I'm not sure how much it has improved our security posture, but it's made managing identities more convenient."

"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."

"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."

"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."

More Omada Identity pros

"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."

"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."

"Documentation."

"The most valuable feature is the ease with which we can manage the sign-on feature."

"Ease of integration with AD."

"OneLogin is efficient."

"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's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."

More OneLogin by One Identity pros

"I like the eDirectory feature."

"NetIQ does not have a limit on the number of users."

"The most valuable features are Password Reset Alerts, Password Sync, and SQL connectors."

"The most valuable feature of this solution has been the ability for us to integrate a lot of external systems, and the automatic transfer of a lot of identity information. Additionally, the customization is very good."

"The most valuable feature of NetIQ Identity Manager for identity synchronization is the ability to provide users with all necessary access on day one through automated provisioning, facilitated by approval workflows."

"The most valuable features of NetIQ Identity Manager are the synchronization of different directories, such as Active Directory. We have many Active Directory systems, not only one."

"It's a very flexible tool, so you can synchronize multiple sources of data and you have multiple connections to various kinds of systems."

"The product is easy to use."

Cons

"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."

"Documentation can be improved. I have already filed a few suggestions to make documentation more clear and more representative of reality."

"What I would most like to see added to the product is role management, especially enterprise or business role management, and the processes around that."

"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."

"The web GUI can be improved."

"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."

"The comprehensiveness of Omada's out-of-the-box connectors for the applications we use could be better. We are getting a new HR system called Cornerstone for which they do not have an out-of-the-box connector, so we have to take the REST connector and play around with it."

"The user interface could be improved. The interface between Omada and the user is mainly text-based."

More Omada Identity cons

"In terms of managing the users on a large scale, it would be easier if they had some kind of user management portal."

"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."

"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."

"I'd like OneLogin to have a customization section that displays the company's offerings, categorized by different topics."

"OneLogin needs to increase the number of connectors available out of the box to connect to the different endpoints. The number of out-of-box connectors should be increased."

"OneLogin offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."

"The tool must be made more robust."

"having a RESTful implementation instead of RPC would have been more desirable."

More OneLogin by One Identity cons

"Areas for improvement are further enhancing the access granting process to reduce time and improve accuracy."

"We have another system that is using the SAML system, and we also integrate with Active Directory only. If NetIQ Identity Manager can integrate directly, we would not need to use the Active Directory directory."

"It needs some modern features. They should improve and modernize their management interface. It has been created over years and by different persons. You can see different applications, different management consoles for different things. There should be an integrated interface."

"The integrations must be made easier."

"The interface is old and outdated, and the design software seems archaic."

"The solution architecture is somewhat complex. For some components, the necessary resilience is not inherent."

"If it could be operated in such a way that anybody could use it, with just the user interface, and there's no need for programming, then that would be a great improvement."

"The vendor must provide an easier console for configuring things for smaller customers."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is fairly priced for an on-premise environment, but for the cloud environment, I am not that happy with the pricing."

"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."

"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."

"Omada is expensive."

"It is not cheap. None of these solutions are cheap, but we have good pricing at least for now from a licensing perspective."

"The pricing is too high for SMBs."

"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."

"Omada isn't cheap or expensive. The licensing model is flexible. I've only had limited interactions with the Omada sales team, but they were positive. They don't sell the customers more licenses than they need. It's important to accurately forecast future usage. For example, we have many licenses that we don't use because we don't have the identities yet. We pay extra, which isn't good."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

"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."

"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."

"The price of the licensing is fine."

"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."

"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."

"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."

"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."

"You just need to be aware that the more systems you connect, the more license fees you have to pay."

"The solution is quite affordable."

"I would rate the pricing a two out of ten, with one being low price and ten being high price. It is significantly more cost-effective than the major players in the market."

"Micro Focus is flexible when it comes to price. The cost varies from customer to customer. There are no additional costs, though. Everything is included."

"It would easily help them in getting more market and more customers if more consultants knew about their software. If they could keep it free for schools for teaching purposes, it would be good. I had to pay myself to get it and use it for training. Their competitors are giving it for free. I had to pay for it myself. They are losing market to their competitors."

"The price of the solution is a bit high and could be reduced."
