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 has poor reporting and analytic capabilities. Reports are not easy to use and its analytic capabilities are limited.""They should lower the price and technical support should be better.""The product’s cloud offering could be flexible.""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 cost of this solution is high. The technical assistance center could be improved. They're very good, but considering the intricacies of the solution, they can further improve.""I would like to see more Cloud management from this product.""It tends to be more expensive, but at the end of the day, it works."

Also, the logs, reports, and dashboard can be improved."
