Amimesh Anand

Senior Architect at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees

Offers single sign-on capabilities to users

Suppose you are totally dependent and have requirements where you have a cloud application or several applications for integration with the cloud. In that case, I will suggest the use of Oracle Identity Cloud Service. Oracle Identity Cloud Service has much scope for customization. If you have a high customization level, then I would suggest IAM. The tool's multifactor authentication capabilities are easy to implement. If a client has a banking system, they need a strong authentication service, and only a password is not required; the user has to authenticate via fingerprint, face recognition, or go for or any RSA token. Double authentication is required where the banking department has access to very critical applications, or else they cannot go ahead and give the password. It is very difficult to hack once you have MFA in place. You have to either give the print fingerprint or any RSA token, making it not so easy to hack the system. We suggest MFA to clients who have the most critical application with them. I recommend the tool for every client we have, but it depends on how they want to have it because some customers don't want to go for the cloud application, and they might be thinking about changing the cloud vendors. Suppose a company has some costs in mind, and if they have a large number of employees, like 50,000 or 1,00,000 users, then it will be costlier for them than having an on-prem tool, like IAM. If a customer has 5,000, 10,000, or 20,00 employees, Oracle Identity Cloud Service can be a cheaper tool than the IAM product. I will suggest Oracle Identity Cloud Service only for smaller organizations. The tool does not have any AI capabilities. I would recommend the tool to everyone. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Principle at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

User access management excels but needs enhancements with integration capabilities

I was aware of that because I used to manage these solutions earlier on, but it was purchased by the Procurement team, so I was not involved in any of those.There are certain details I may not be able to disclose currently, but we can speak in general about a number of products and tools that are ongoing. I have not been using access management controls here, so I don't have the latest features or details or hands-on experience in that space. I cannot share all the details about the improvements in security operations since we were exploring some products, but I'm familiar with Saviynt as I was one of their partners for other solutions, and currently, I cannot disclose a lot of performance related to my current roles.

"The most valuable features are the high stability and good performance."

"The most valuable feature is identity management."

More Oracle Identity Cloud Service pros

"This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pros

Cons

"Self Service features are still limited in IDCS, and there is a need for more customization of the self-service screens."

"The cost of this solution should be reduced."

"Oracle needs to improve the GUI and many other aspects of the cloud console. It isn't as slick as Azure, Google, or IWS cloud. The documentation could be better, too."

"The tool doesn't have many out-of-the-box connectors for the target integration."

"Oracle needs to improve the GUI and many other aspects of the cloud console."

"The IDs that are not used for a particular number of days should be disabled automatically."

"The initial setup was a little complex. At that time, the method of integration was a bit complicated due to the scripts that we were required to write for the integration."

"The protocol could be easier to use."

More Oracle Identity Cloud Service cons

"Competitors are advancing by offering integrated solutions encompassing access and privileged access management in a single unified platform. IdentityIQ's focus has remained primarily on identity and access governance, neglecting to expand its offerings to include these additional functionalities within its existing product. Enhancing their product by incorporating modules for access management, privileged access management, and third-party access governance could address this gap."

"Reporting lacks the flexibility of retrieving the vast amount of data that we know is in the database, but not easily accessible."

"Certifications could include additional access levels or practices."

"In the past, we had a lot of problems with SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in providing access and provisioning."

"Some of the features like multi-aggregation and self healing feature in case of corrupted certificates would be pretty useful which would enable easy debugging in case of issues."

"Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting."

"The user interface could be slightly improved. It could be made simpler and more user-friendly, however, it is good enough right now."

"The UI is complex."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."

"The foundation tier that is offered with other cloud services subscriptions is fairly extensive and supports the use of identities, groups, and privileges in those cloud services."

"The tool's implementation costs totally depend on the number of users. The cost depends on how many users are going to use it, so a per-user cost model is needed for the tool."

"This is an expensive solution. I would rate it a two and a half out of five for pricing."

"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."

"The pricing is based on the number of users and is reasonable."

"It's all competitive. Initially, the prices look a bit higher, but once it gets into a competitive situation, they meet the market. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing. It tends to be more expensive, but it works."

"It is affordable licensing."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."

"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."

"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."
