Executive SummaryUpdated on Jul 27, 2025

SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and Saviynt both compete in the identity management space. SailPoint seems to have the upper hand due to its comprehensive out-of-the-box features and superior implementation speed.

Features: SailPoint Identity Security Cloud offers powerful capabilities like hierarchical RBAC, flexible provisioning policies, and an extensive list of connectors with no added cost. Its robust design minimizes the need for extensive coding, making customization and deployment efficient. Saviynt excels in integrating with systems like SAP and Microsoft, focusing on deeper application integrations, particularly for complex identity scenarios.

Room for Improvement: SailPoint faces criticism for high costs, inflexible provisioning, and complex configurations, which sometimes affect stability. Saviynt's areas needing enhancement include customization abilities and performance optimization under heavy loads. Both could improve customer support and develop comprehensive documentation to boost user satisfaction.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: SailPoint benefits from a strong support ecosystem and active community but encounters issues with support delays and language barriers. Saviynt provides excellent weekend support but could enhance its training and partner network to improve service proficiency and deployment processes.

Pricing and ROI: SailPoint's high pricing might deter smaller businesses, yet it delivers substantial ROI through enhanced access management. Saviynt, being more affordable, offers flexible pricing options and proactive measures against non-compliance, justifying its investment. Both platforms show potential in reducing costs and enhancing identity management 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.

Suresh Kumar Subramaniyan

Manager, Identity & Access Management at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Has delivered strong identity automation while support response could be faster

With either SailPoint or Saviynt, I utilize this product, as do some of my clients, with AWS as a main cloud provider. We are not using AWS; we were using only Saviynt. We never used AWS because we don't have any customers for AWS. Saviynt likely uses an AWS server for their database, though I'm not certain how they utilize AWS services. The cloud-native capabilities of Saviynt contribute to enhanced cloud security as they are operating a cloud-based solution. Saviynt's capabilities for automating user provisioning and access are excellent, and their IGA functionality is perfect. The specific details about their IGA capability show excellence in terms of automated onboarding, off-boarding process, and JML processes, making it a strong solution in this market. I rate Saviynt 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."

"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."

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

"Omada's onboarding features reflect our processes for onboarding new employees well. That is the primary reason we use this solution. We use role-based access control. I'm not sure how much it has improved our security posture, but it's made managing identities more convenient."

"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."

"Omada Identity Suite has a very powerful workflow engine. It is used for requesting access for approval to everything that's around Access Management and for re-certification purposes."

"For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."

"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."

More Omada Identity pros

"Deployment takes a bit of time, however, once it's done properly, everything becomes very organized and easy to use."

"The compliance features are the most valuable features."

"It offers a single source of truth. Everything can be handled from one tier."

"The solution can be customized to adapt the workflow to our industry, offering considerable flexibility."

"The big one now is that they're adding AI and machine learning to figure out automated approvals and make recommendations to their reviewers. So, if I bring up Doug McPherson and it says he has access to this application, the system will make a review based on peer group analysis. That's one of the biggest new things. The problem used to be that people would get everything loaded on, and they created too much work for themselves. Now, they can use these policies and start to let the machine pick the less risky things."

"It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes."

"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."

"Provides functionalities for various stages, such as joiner, mover, and leaver"

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pros

"Saviynt is superior because it is user-friendly, and their fundamental phenomena are no-code, low-code, which means no customization is needed for the implementation part."

"One of the tool's advantages is its user-friendly interface, making it easier to manipulate from a GUI perspective. The graphical user interface for users and administrators is straightforward. While it may require more configuration initially, once set up, it becomes more accessible and easier to use."

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

"It's easy to manage and easy to use; a simple tool for end-users."

"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."

"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 most valuable aspect of Saviynt is its market acceptance."

More Saviynt pros

Cons

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

"Omada could make it a bit more convenient to send emails based on events automatically. Having that functionality is critical for us to maintain transparency."

"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."

"The backend is pretty good but the self-service request access screen, the GUI, needs improvement. It's an old-fashioned screen. Also, Omada has reports, but I wouldn't dare show them to the business because they look like they're from 1995. I know they are working on these things and that’s good, because they’re really needed."

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

"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."

"They need to improve the cost for small companies."

"When making a process, you should be able to use some coding to do some advanced calculations. The calculations you can currently do are too basic. I would also like some additional script features."

More Omada Identity cons

"The interface should be simple and easier to use."

"Regarding the scope for improvement in the solution, reporting is an area that can be a bit more UI-oriented."

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

"The UI is complex."

"The workflow and user interface of SailPoint are not as smooth as ServiceNow's."

"If there's a price reduction for SailPoint IdentityIQ, that would be helpful. Another area for improvement in the product is the technical support, which needs to be more friendly to customers."

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

"There are more functionalities in the Cloud that could be explored."

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 company needs to do more to establish standard practices within the product itself that are common in the industry."

"We sometimes experience performance issues when the solution fails to process the data between two different applications."

"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."

"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."

"Both SailPoint IdentityNow and Saviynt have some bugs, but SailPoint is considered more mature with fewer bugs due to its longer establishment in the market since around 2005. SailPoint had its share of bugs in the early days, but they have resolved them over time, resulting in a stable product. Saviynt, on the other hand, was launched around 2013 or 2014 and is actively working to improve its product. Despite having some bugs, Saviynt is making progress and aims to build a stable product, but it is not there yet."

"The tool is difficult to migrate."

More Saviynt cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is too high for SMBs."

"They are positioned at a good price point. They are lower than some of their competitors."

"It is licensed per managed user per year."

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

"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 continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."

"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."

"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."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

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

"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ is highly-priced, and I rate it an eight out of ten for pricing."

"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."

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

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

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

"In terms of pricing, SailPoint IdentityIQ is affordable. It's not cheap, and it's not expensive, so the solution is in the middle, price-wise. It also didn't have additional costs, even if my company had different teams that took care of auditing and provisioning and projects that used SailPoint IdentityIQ."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pricing and cost advice

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

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

"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."

"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."

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

"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."

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

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