Upendar G - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficiently manage applications with secure single sign-on and streamlined operations
Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access. Its ability to consolidate applications on a single interface streamlines operations significantly. The product is highly secure and reliable, especially in managing user access across various platforms. Multi-factor authentication enhances security by requiring additional verification steps.
Bill H. - PeerSpot reviewer
Affordable, easy to use, and integrates well with Active Directory
The product and service are already great as it is but if I could add one feature, I guess it would be nice to have another factor of authentication (two additional factors) like your phone and a token for example, for when people forget their phone at home. It’s not that I mind not having two factors, but I do get that question from time to time from some of our users who think it would be really useful. From what I’ve heard, they’re working on it and it should be coming in the next version so that’s great news.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product allows customization via custom code."
"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"The MFA is the most valuable aspect."
"Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access."
"I would tell others that this solution is reliable. If they are looking for a solution that is reliable and that is scalable, then this is a good one."
"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products."
"The product supports customization."
"The most valuable features are two-factor authentication and real-time logon monitoring."
"We mainly implemented UserLock for multi-factor authentication, but the user login insights are also nice."
 

Cons

"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."
"The technical support is not very good at all."
"May not integrate easily with non-Oracle products."
"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."
"Although Oracle Access Manager is generally stable, we experienced issues with multi-domain configurations and web agent settings."
"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."
"The initial implementation can definitely be improved because you have to work on several components to configure it correctly."
"I suggest Oracle make the integration process for non-Oracle applications as straightforward and easy as it is for Oracle applications."
"The product and service are already great as it is but if I could add one feature, I guess it would be nice to have another factor of authentication (two additional factors) like your phone and a token for example, for when people forget their phone at home."
"I would like to see UserLock add the ability to automatically create a group policy in Active Directory. That might streamline the setup process."
 

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 tool is affordable."
"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
"The product is a little expensive."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
"You will be hard-pressed to find better pricing."
