We performed a comparison between SailPoint IdentityIQ and VMware Identity Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Identity and Access Management as a Service (IDaaS) (IAMaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."A feature of SailPoint IdentityIQ that I like best is that it has good integration with other platforms. My company is using ADP here in Brazil, and SailPoint IdentityIQ works very, very well with it. My company is also using the solution for governance evaluation, segregation, and other access tests. For my company, SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very important solution, especially because it's automated, and there's a huge audit and risk issue here in Brazil."
"The tool is quite stable and user-friendly."
"The first valuable feature of the solution is its interface. The second feature of the solution is the level of flexibility it provides."
"The compliance features are the most valuable features."
"Deployment takes a bit of time, however, once it's done properly, everything becomes very organized and easy to use."
"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 most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager."
"This solution is easy to configure."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the User Experience Designer, which has been very helpful for our project."
"The most valuable features in VMware Identity Manager for me are the control groups and rules."
"Personally, VMware Identity Manager is useful for comparison purposes so that I can provide better solutions to my company's customers."
"It helps the end users to work on the road without needing to set up all kinds of VPN connections"
"The most valuable feature is single sign-on."
"The solution was easy to deploy."
"Its value is when you use it with a Workspace ONE UEM solution as it is part of the ecosystem for VMware Workspace ONE."
"It is too technical. You need really good technical skills in Java and other technologies, which are hard to find. If they can make it easier so that things can be done with a few clicks, it will be great."
"The report functionality and dashboard of the access manager could be improved."
"In the past, we had a lot of problems with SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in providing access and provisioning. There were some gaps in the operation of the solution because they were manual rather than automated, and the users and administrators were given access directly via Active Directory, and it wasn't appropriate for us at the time to use. In terms of integration, we could provide a more automated solution after a minimum number of years, but not in the SailPoint IdentityIQ platform, but there were problems in the registration, for example, with putting information inside ADP, but in general, we were able to solve those problems, and after implementing SailPoint IdentityIQ we had increased evaluations."
"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."
"The connectors are far too manual. This needs to be automated a bit."
"The UI needs to be more user friendly. More concentration on historical policy violations would be great. In terms of new features, I would like to see artificial intelligence and machine language added."
"Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting."
"They can work on their strategy for the on-premise version. They have to decide whether and for how long they will support the on-premise version. The new features first appear in the cloud, and after that, they are released for the on-premise version. In the cloud, you have more options and flexibility, which is absolutely normal. They have to have a clear strategy regarding whether they'll support the on-premises version with the same focus. The licensing for on-premise and cloud is a little bit different. They can make it the same."
"I would like to have better support for multi-cloud sessions."
"The license could be better."
"it's very dependent on an active directory"
"We have a lot of problems when it comes to integrating with Active Directory."
"There are a lot of difficulties whenever people have a lot of configurations in it, basically related to security certificate configurations and integration with VMware Horizon."
"The mobile SSO doesn't work as well on Android."
"There is a need for better user lifecycle management within VMware Identity Manager, along with better user governance...The scalability of the product needs to improve."
"The security features could always use improvement, although there has already been a huge improvement from years ago."
