It is mainly an identity governance tool. It is being used to collect, for example, any new employee records or employee records in general from HR systems, such as Oracle, SAP, and Workday, and then push it downstream for systems such as Active Directory, Exchange, etc. This is the main functionality of it. 

The other functionality for it is to have a request platform, such as a web portal, for requests for access, approval, and user-based grants and reviews.

I used it in my last organization. We wanted to publish the applications present in the Oracle Database on the IAM portal. We used One Identity Manager to publish the apps on the portal so that end users could access product policies and workflows from this website. This included handling approvals, user workflows, SOD violations, SOX compliance, and other aspects.

We use this solution to enable a lifecycle for all the accounts we have in our Active Directory. One Identity Manager helps us enforce rules and renewal periods. It assists in tracking useless accounts to ensure that we do not retain people's accounts once they leave the company. We are extending the solution, highly customizing it to associate almost every object in our Active Directory with an identity. Every identity has a lifecycle and specific rules enforced by One Identity Manager. View full review »

I have been in various roles. I have been a developer, an operational manager on this One Identity tool, and also a product analyst. We have used it in various phases.

I'm an official partner. The consultants I work with have provided me with a consultancy license, and the clients have their own licenses, but we work with our own licenses. Whenever there is a vendor bug or something is needed, we use our license to raise a ticket on behalf of our client. 

The consultancy that I work with has been One Identity's Partner of the Year for the last five years. We have offices in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. In Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, we have been the top partner for the last three years, and in Asia-Pacific, we have been the top partner for the last year.

We have a license program with them. When we sell the product, it's a partnership between One Identity and us. They get a share of the profit, and we get a share. The client pays the full price of the product.

Solutions architect at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

We use Identity Manager for several things, such as automating our XML process, user provisioning and reprovisioning, and governance-related activities like access reviews and degradation of duties.

Identity Manager sits at the center of the organization. We integrate our systems, like Workday, into other HR systems for employees and contractors. If there are any vendors and customer-related identities, we feed the data from those systems into One Identity. One Identity Manager is configured to the initial access established when someone joins the organization, such as email, Active Directory, desktop logins, timesheets, and common apps that everybody in the organization requires.

We also have request systems in ServiceNow integrated with One Identity Manager on the back end. The request tool goes through ServiceNow, and One Identity creates a notification that a user has requested access to an application. Identity Manager will provision those users on those systems. Some requests are automated and others are semi-automated. When a ticket is opened in ServiceNow, the team will pick up the ticket and work on it. Once they do that, an update comes into the IDM system saying that this user has been granted this access. One Identity Manager is the central book of records or identities and their access levels.

One Identity Manager streamlines our entire identity lifecycle management. It handles onboarding new joiners, assigning and controlling roles with role-based access control, and automates user access reviews twice a year. Additionally, the system facilitates reporting for audits, providing auditors with necessary information on demand. This centralized system acts as a one-stop shop, managing everything from onboarding and role assignment to offboarding and emergency access control.

We have several use cases. I work with the German police, who use it to manage use cases. When the forensic examiner goes to the field to gather evidence, they have to transfer this evidence to investigators. We handle the entire process of data cleaning. When the forensic examiner goes to the field, an identity and governance process takes that data, creates an evidence file for it, and transfers that file to an investigator in that team. We also do email password provisioning.

We improve case processes for the bank we work with. They're also using One Identity for account management and provisioning. I'm working with an architecture firm onboarding new employees. There's a global assignment process where an identity or an employee can be assigned to a different country, and he still has to retain his employment. We map the identities even though he's given employment in another country.

One Identity Manager is an identity governance and management tool. Our customers have defined policies based on their infrastructure but not an intelligent centralized system that handles all the application and user information. When a user requests access to an application, we're the first ones to get that info and perform corporate operations like onboarding and offboarding. We also provide the necessary access. 

We manage about 200,000 users. A bank is one of our biggest clients, so managing their systems is a little more complex. They have multiple streams, making it somewhat complicated.

Currently, we are using the One Identity Manager solution for user feeding from the HR database to target systems such as Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange, and other protocols and servers. In our organization, One Identity's main use case is user feeding, user onboarding, and user offboarding.

We have created job flows for users, and One Identity listens to our HR database to see if there are any changes. It detects any changes and then synchronizes with the target systems or feeds the target systems. We have created a custom workflow based on our organization's requirements, and then we are managing our users with One Identity.

One Identity has a single sign-on solution. If you want to use single sign-on or auth providers in your organization, you can use it, but currently, we are not using it for the single sign-on features. We are using it for privileged accounts. We have created custom rule sets for access reviews, attestation, etc. We have also created flows for the segregation of duties and job rotations. We are handling these operations or regulations with One Identity.

We are completely working with an on-prem solution. As per Turkish financial regulations, we can't use cloud services for financial services. That's why we didn't test any scenarios related to the cloud and any software on the cloud. We are currently using its latest version.

The system provides automated workflows and birthright assignments for easier management of similar accounts or those in the same department or role. 

With the system synchronized with our HR database, new account creations are automated and include an email to managers providing users with their credentials for initial login. Only the hiring manager will receive a copy of the initial username and password, helping further secure this information and have it readily available before the employee begins.

BAAN, AX, AS400, AD, Exchange, Footprints, several home-grown applications.

We had a relatively small AD (about 5,000 users) but our primary challenge was that all of the legacy systems in place, including multiple instances of BAAN that came from different M&A deals, each with their own configurations and entitlements.

EF
Identity Manager at University of Maribor

We had several tools over time to try to gain control of IAM, but none of them were capable enough for our needs. We simply had too many systems to work with. We wanted one digital identity for each user and a comprehensive view of each user’s entitlements.

The primary use case for this solution is implementing them at the customer site, according to the customer's business needs. E.g., certain customers needs an attestation case. 

The reason for implementing this solution is the need to become somewhat more in control. There is also the ease of use for connecting products to target systems, like an Active Directory or Exchange.
