Unified customer identity has delivered seamless branded logins and secure passwordless access
There are some issues I dislike about OneLogin Customer Identity. Customers are still facing performance inconsistencies. Many times users have reported issues such as slow loading times, some occasional browser extension failures, and long session timeout behaviors. There is also complex implementation and configuration. Setting up this product can be demanding, particularly for an organization with a complex application, legacy applications, or larger application data which requires extensive custom workflows or a need for advanced branding. This will take a larger amount of time for deployment. Customization is easy but it takes time to customize, so it depends on the situation. Occasional service interruptions also occur. During my tenure, some users reported occasional outages or connectivity glitches which disrupted access to business applications.

Structured operations and analytics have transformed how my teams manage customers and sales
I see room for improvement regarding financial operations and FinOps. If they are not being controlled correctly, Salesforce billings can get huge. They charge for everything: license costs, storage costs, and transaction costs, and it can really end up blowing budgets if it is not controlled. Those controls should be something that is easy to manage. With Salesforce, it is pretty difficult to manage unless you are a very advanced user. Normal regular users may not be able to keep the costs in control. This ends up resulting in bill shocks where you suddenly receive a bill which you may not be expecting.

"For OneLogin, if a customer is looking for a cost-effective solution with faster setup and excellent simple-to-use workflows, then they should go for OneLogin."
"OneLogin Customer Identity has positively impacted our organization by significantly improving our security."
"Overall, it has helped us improve operational efficiency, strengthen security, and provide a better user experience for our team."
"OneLogin Customer Identity by One Identity has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to manage the onboarding and offboarding process effectively, where when customers leave our company, all accounts are automatically logged out and blocked, and when new employees come onboard, all accounts are created automatically."
"The biggest benefit of OneLogin Customer Identity for cybersecurity in a banking environment is the ability to manage many virtual machines, servers, and applications that require different credentials and privileges by using single sign-on, which automates the process."
"My advice for others considering using OneLogin Customer Identity by One Identity is that I would easily recommend it, as it is a solution that delivers what it promises, easily accomplishes what it sets out to deliver, with straightforward implementation and very good scalability."
"OneLogin Customer Identity by One Identity has positively impacted my organization because it brings a more secure and reliable way for users to access applications."
"The solution is very easy to understand."
"Salesforce Identity is a very user-friendly solution."
"The user experience was great because it had all the features that the client needed, it was fully customized for the client, and it was very simple, making it the best solution at that time."
"The most valuable features are the pipeline management, being able to track the pipeline anytime, and the ability to get in touch with our high management team or board members."
"The best features of Salesforce Platform that I appreciate are that it is very configurable and easy for both developers as well as customers to use."
"The single sign-on feature of Salesforce Identity enhances our organization's security posture overall."
 

Cons

"My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing is a bit negative because, although the solution is amazing and a very good system, the prices are a bit exaggerated, especially at larger scales."
"One area would be the initial setup and configuration process. While the platform is powerful, some of the advanced settings can be a bit complex for new administrators, and more guided setup options would be helpful."
"I am not sure if there were any enhancements in terms of AI or any other features added, but when I used OneLogin Customer Identity by One Identity, it was a very good product."
"The accuracy and reliability of OneLogin Customer Identity's output are sometimes problematic, but these issues are being addressed with collaboration between internal teams focused on security and product development."
"In terms of scalability for OneLogin Customer Identity, I don't think it has great scalability because many times users have reported issues about their loading browser extension and sometimes their session timeout."
"OneLogin Customer Identity's mobile app is not the best and could use some improvements for easy use on the go or at home or remotely."
"Comparing OneLogin Customer Identity with CyberArk technically, I think CyberArk is better; I have had CyberArk for around two years or more, and I know of two or three customers in Ethiopian financial institutions using CyberArk Identity Access Management."
"The product is slow."
"Salesforce Identity needs more expertise in the application."
"The most wanted feature on such platforms nowadays is artificial intelligence, especially for marketing activities. This is also my area of expertise, so it would be very interesting to see AI in these platforms."
"Salesforce could make it more user-friendly and easier to implement. Currently, there's a lot of coding and technical work required. I would appreciate a more plug-and-play approach where you could set it up without needing a dedicated technical person."
"The interface should be simplified and the dashboard has a lot of options but could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a very low price and ten is a very high price, I rate Salesforce Identity's pricing a six out of ten."
"I'd recommend Salesforce for larger products where you really need a robust CRM. It's expensive, so for smaller websites or products, it might not be the most cost-effective solution."
