Executive SummaryUpdated on Apr 20, 2025

SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and Saviynt compete in the identity governance and administration market. SailPoint has the upper hand in integration options and implementation ease, whereas Saviynt is favored for its unified platform and in-depth enterprise system integration.

Features: SailPoint Identity Security Cloud offers a comprehensive access governance suite, a multitude of out-of-the-box connectors, and simplified provisioning for fast system integration. Saviynt focuses on a unified platform approach, combining access governance with privileged access management and providing deep enterprise system integration, emphasizing ease of user provisioning and intuitive workflows.

Room for Improvement: SailPoint faces challenges with high pricing and complex configurations that necessitate extensive customization, demanding improvements in stability, reduction of feature bloat, and simplified configurations. Saviynt encounters limitations in customization, slower support response times, and performance issues in large-scale environments, indicating needs for increased flexibility, improved documentation, and more streamlined processes.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: SailPoint supports diverse deployment options including on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid environments, providing flexible solutions with robust but mixed technical support reviews. Saviynt offers public, private, and hybrid cloud deployments but less extensive on-premises support compared to SailPoint. It generally receives positive support reviews with weekend assistance available but requires quicker resolution for complex issues.

Pricing and ROI: SailPoint Identity Security Cloud is perceived as expensive, especially for smaller businesses, but offers good ROI through improved processes and reduced risks. Saviynt is more affordable in cloud environments with similar additional fee concerns but is viewed as cost-effective due to its comprehensive capabilities and affordability relative to competition, targeting robust security and compliance efficiency.

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.

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

"We are able to onboard new user accounts much faster by automating the process and standardizing our operations globally. Previously, there were many individual processes and manual admin interactions. We also see a lot of cost savings and benefits because through automation and standardization."

"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."

"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."

"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."

"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."

"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors."

"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."

"Its best feature is definitely the process design. It is quite easy and straightforward to design a process."

More Omada Identity pros

"It is a stable tool, which we run in our complex environment."

"SailPoint has allowed us to ensure the right people have the right access and to the rights things."

"The compliance features are the most valuable features."

"It is simple and easy to implement."

"What I like most about SailPoint IdentityIQ is that it's simple to use and easy to configure and deploy."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."

"The solution is one of the main security products you need to control access and have visibility into what's happening in your organization. It helps with managing access to applications, ensuring governance, and obtaining certifications."

"This solution is great for providing control access across your environment."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pros

"The feature that we use the most is the global, third-party user management."

"It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click."

"We have found the implementation process to be very easy."

"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."

"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."

"The most valuable features of Saviynt are database utility and report generation. These two features have a major impact, particularly when you are trying to create a report because, in other systems, you need to use a third-party utility such as a BI tool or any other reporting tool to fetch the data and send out the report to a third party team. In Saviynt, it's a system within a system, so you don't have to use any third-party tool because you can directly do your query and write that code on Saviynt and then send that report to the team."

"The dedicated Freshdesk platform is a user community and a step in the right direction for offering learning resources."

"Saviynt risk-based access requests and intelligent access controls have made a significant impact on our company."

More Saviynt pros

Cons

"I would like to see them expand the functionality of the tool to continue to be competitive with the monsters out there. For example, they could add functionality on the authentication side, functionality that Octa and SailPoint have. But they should do that while maintaining the same simplicity that makes Omada a product of choice today."

"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."

"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."

"The web GUI can be improved."

"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."

"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."

"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."

"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."

More Omada Identity cons

"Finding integration experts for SailPoint in the North American market can be challenging, and transitioning to a no-code or low-code setup could reduce dependence on specialized skills."

"The product is unable to share suggestions with users."

"It allowed to implement the automated processes when a new employee is hired. It allows to have a main central process for new hires."

"There's a lot of customization required to improve the user experience."

"SailPoint lacks some features like privileged account management and access management features found in products like Okta."

"In general, I have handled Okta and OpenText and noted that those companies have a longer history in the market, which gives them an advantage over SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and Saviynt in aspects like account provisioning and life cycle management."

"Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time."

"It is not readily available and cannot be downloaded from the net."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud cons

"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 main difficulty was the integration process itself. But we were able to kind of work through it and fix it. We tried integrating with our HR system and other IBM solutions, like Microsoft Identity Management."

"The solution does not work very well as the number of users increases."

"The customer support and implementation services need to be improved."

"The product's stability is not easy to maintain."

"It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part."

"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 technical support team's response time could be improved."

More Saviynt cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."

"It is licensed per managed user per year."

"The pricing for Omada Identity is fair."

"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."

"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."

"Omada is too expensive. We are in the automotive industry. The pricing might be high because most of the other customers are in the insurance or banking sectors, but it's steep for an auto supply company."

"It is fairly priced for an on-premise environment, but for the cloud environment, I am not that happy with the pricing."

"Omada isn't cheap or expensive. The licensing model is flexible. I've only had limited interactions with the Omada sales team, but they were positive. They don't sell the customers more licenses than they need. It's important to accurately forecast future usage. For example, we have many licenses that we don't use because we don't have the identities yet. We pay extra, which isn't good."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

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

"I found the pricing to be relatively high."

"The solution is not cheap."

"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."

"SailPoint is expensive compared to its competitors. It's one of the most expensive products, so I'd rate it as one out of five, cost-wise."

"The price of the solution could improve, it is not priced well for smaller businesses to afford."

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

"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."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pricing and cost advice

"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."

"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."

"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."

"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."

"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."

"Saviynt has a competitive price."

"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."

"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
