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

Pros

"The product supports customization."
"The product was built to be scalable."
"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Access Manager are the single sign-on capability and is a very robust platform. It can take a high number of authentication, and authorization requests. It's very flexible."
"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products."
"In general, the customization that is offered is very good. The company that I am working with currently is using this feature quite extensively."
"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."
"The solution is able to save time and resources for my clients."
"We mainly implemented UserLock for multi-factor authentication, but the user login insights are also nice."
"The most valuable features are two-factor authentication and real-time logon monitoring."
 

Cons

"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."
"To improve Oracle Access Manager, they should consider integrating more policies and enhancing automation, especially in managing server load and cache cleanup."
"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."
"The technical support is not very good at all."
"The pricing of the solution is in need of improvement. Oracle products are very expensive."
"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."
"In the next release, they should focus more on use cases related to customer access management, customer identity, and access management."
"There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution."
"I would like to see UserLock add the ability to automatically create a group policy in Active Directory. That might streamline the setup process."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
"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 product is a little expensive."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
"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."
"You will be hard-pressed to find better pricing."
