Mitch MO - PeerSpot reviewer
Specialist Consultant at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Access lifecycle has been streamlined but connectors for non‑human identities still need improvement
We currently use IdentityIQ and do not have SailPoint Identity Security Cloud. We only have IdentityIQ on-premises. I do not have extensive experience with analytics, but I know that there are custom reports available to obtain information about data in SailPoint. I am not entirely familiar with analytics data. It is difficult to score because you have to compare with another product to assess it. We are satisfied with IdentityIQ. However, I understand that we will not have a choice but to move to a cloud solution in the future because SailPoint is not investing in new upgrades or evolution of IdentityIQ. My overall rating for this product is 7.

User-friendly interface has improved threat detection through real-time analytics and AI advancements
They are very updated. Their customer responses are great, and they keep using the new AI tools to keep themselves at the edge of the game. This is very helpful because there are many false positives which keep cropping up, and one of the things that Securonix Next-Gen SIEM does very well is ensuring they don't give attention to false positives. They don't take attention away from the real problems and reduce a lot of noise. We look forward to more developments from Securonix Next-Gen SIEM in terms of their service turnaround times and staying connected with customers.
