Offers strong support and consistent updates improve security features

It is a heavyweight application. The product deployment and installation takes time, and the environment details are complex. ForgeRock is very quick to deploy on Tomcat, but Oracle Access Manager must be deployed on WebLogic, a heavyweight server. You cannot deploy Oracle Access Manager on Tomcat. If an organization has sufficient budget to spend on servers, then it is useful. For organizations that do not want to spend too much money on Oracle Access Manager, maintenance and upgrades take time, whereas with ForgeRock, that is the opposite as fewer resources are required. Being a heavyweight application, it will take more time for deployment and installation compared to ForgeRock or Okta. Okta is cloud-based, so it does not take much time. ForgeRock on-premise only needs deployment on a Tomcat server, making it less complex as it is a lightweight application.

Simple to use, easy to set up, and performs well

I'm not saying that we want to switch the product, however, since the requirement has increased, we are looking at other options that may be better suited. The scalability may not there. We have a few specific use cases where we have to avoid the cloud. Especially in Europe, we're not allowed to carry their phone in factories. We need some sort of secure access solution. There's a dependency on Microsoft Azure. I am paying to SafeNet and in parallel, I also need to pay Microsoft to use the same service. That makes no sense, to pay double. If they could do something about it, that would be very good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."

"The product was built to be scalable."

"From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves."

"The product allows customization via custom code."

"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."

"The scalability of the solution is good. We haven't felt we've been restricted from expanding as necessary and we haven't heard of any issues from our clients."

"I find the authentication module, authentication scheme, and security policy most useful in Oracle Access Manager."

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."

More Oracle Access Manager pros

"The interface is easy to use."

"The validation and integrity features of the endpoint are great."

"The solution is simple to use."

Cons

"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."

"The user interface is a bit complicated and could be made more lightweight. Simplifying the installation process, perhaps through a VDAR-based installation, would also be beneficial."

"The performance of Oracle Access Manager could be improved. It should be quick to install, but it wasn't, so this is another area for improvement. The Oracle Access Manager console also has room for improvement because it's slow."

"There are problems with stability."

"There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution."

"May not integrate easily with non-Oracle products."

"Sometimes if a session takes too long, you have to log in again."

"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."

More Oracle Access Manager cons

"There's a dependency on Microsoft Azure."

"SafeNet's reporting and monitoring features could be improved."

"Lacks the ability to integrate network monitoring solutions and authenticate the app users."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."

"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."

"The tool is affordable."

"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."

"Can be expensive as a solution."

"The product is a little expensive."
