Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.
Praveen Jalumuru - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced automation and AI-driven integration offer significant time savings
The most valuable features include its ability to integrate with AI and machine learning, the automation of reports, and the built-in connectors that enable easy connection with both legacy and cloud-based applications. Its code-less drag-and-drop functionality allows for easier adjustments, and it provides strong support with reduced SLAs compared to SailPoint IQ.
VinayM - PeerSpot reviewer
Used for IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management
The technical support team's response time could be improved. After the implementation, Saviynt should provide good support to their customers. While migrating from legacy applications to the cloud, Saviynt has many bugs. The lift and shift are not very seamless. There are a lot of customizations to be done and some development is required. From the migration point of view, the solution is a little buggy.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."
"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"The thing that I find most valuable is that Omada consists of building blocks, which means that you can configure almost anything you want without using custom code, making it pretty easy to do. It's possible to connect to multiple target systems and to create one role that consists of different permissions in the different target systems. So one role in Omada can make sure that you have an account in three different systems."
"The most valuable feature in Omada is the governance. We work with other products and other product vendors, but the sweet spot in the market for Omada is where things are heavy on governance."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done."
"It is simple and easy to implement."
"The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good."
"The solution is very good at the management of the identity lifecycle."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager."
"The most valuable feature for our customers and for us is the identity data warehouse."
"Good life cycle management, segregation of duties, and analytics features."
"The tool is quite stable and user-friendly."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"It's a highly functional system and a very well rounded solution. The onboarding of applications is solid. Their user access reviews are very good. Their role-based model and their identity life cycle stuff are solid. It's a very well rounded, strong product."
"This product works well out of the box and if you don’t want to do a lot of configuration then this is the best tool."
"We have found the implementation process to be very easy."
"It is a flexible tool because it works on JSON."
"The most valuable aspect of Saviynt is its market acceptance."
"Saviynt risk-based access requests and intelligent access controls have made a significant impact on our company."
 

Cons

"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."
"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"When you do a recalculation of an identity, it's hard to understand what was incorrect before you started the recalculation, and which values are actually updated... all you see are all the new fields that are provisioned, instead of seeing only the fields that are changed."
"The web GUI can be improved."
"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."
"Functionality and usability could be improved."
"The connectors are far too manual. This needs to be automated a bit."
"We faced some issues while integrating the solution with a third-party tool."
"The solution needs to have more out-of-the-box integration with different applications and solutions."
"There is a need for further enhancements, specifically in the multifactor authentication capabilities."
"There are more functionalities in the Cloud that could be explored."
"It allowed to implement the automated processes when a new employee is hired. It allows to have a main central process for new hires."
"The product’s cloud offering could be flexible."
"The connector for EPIC, ServiceNow, and Duo."
"The biggest drawback is that for every change you want to make, you have to go back to them and ask for it."
"UI and support could be improved. The frequent updates and version changes can be disruptive for large organizations. Not every month, a large organization can go with the changes. Saviynt needs to consider this carefully."
"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."
"Considering the shortcomings of the tool, I would say that the training part of the product needs improvement."
"An area for improvement in Saviynt is that there's a limitation on the number of logs you can get from the past twenty-four hours. For example, if the data is huge, the tool can only give you a maximum of one hundred logs. You can't get any further than that. In the next version of Saviynt, however, you can get more logs and you'll see them inside the log rotation. For example, when you're trying to search inside the log, you can select a date range, and then you can search for a particular log. We haven't used that new log rotation feature yet, but it's included in the next release of Saviynt. Another area for improvement in the tool is that it doesn't have a server monitoring feature, so if your server has a high load, it should give you a warning. You're supposed to get an alert similar to what's being done in WebLogic. In WebLogic, we had a separate facility, but in Saviynt, that feature's missing."
"The UI doesn’t enhance the user experience."
"The solution does not work very well as the number of users increases."
"The company needs to do more to establish standard practices within the product itself that are common in the industry."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Being Dutch, I can only say that it is extremely expensive, but all software products are expensive. If you have 38,000 users, then even one dollar or one euro per person would amount to a significant amount of money. Because of the high number of users, anything gets expensive very fast here."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"They are positioned at a good price point. They are lower than some of their competitors."
"It is fairly priced for an on-premise environment, but for the cloud environment, I am not that happy with the pricing."
"It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"The pricing is okay."
"They are expensive."
"You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
"As per my knowledge, it runs on a paid partnership model, but I am not sure about it."
"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."
"The pricing is a little bit higher than other tools."
"The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"The product is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
"If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
