SailPoint Identity Security Cloud Reviews

Our company uses the solution to manage the life cycle and access control of users. 

We implement for various clients in the banking or investment industries in the Middle East. We also have a couple of government customers. All customers use the solution for employee management.  

The access certification feature is valuable. 

The solution is very customizable. 

Certifications could include additional access levels or practices. 

On occasion, there are difficulties with the management control when you attempt to apply things in a certain manner. 

I have been using the solution for nine years. 

The stability is pretty good because it is a very customizable solution. If you don't know how to customize or if you make mistakes, then the solution can become unstable. 

If you have enough hardware to support the on-premises version, then the solution is scalable. You need enough hardware to support the number of identities you want to manage. 

Technical support is efficient and very, very good. If you raise a concern, support is readily available with a solution. Responses are received in a very timely manner. 

The setup is very, very easy. Identity IQ is the on-premises software for the solution and it is easy to setup. There are modules to install so the only thing you need is time to complete them. 

We implement the solution for customers. First you install and connect the web server. Then you install the database on top of it. If you want additional modules, then you can import the LT module on top. 

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

I highly recommend the solution and rate it a seven out of ten. 

I'm a consultant. I work with companies to evaluate it and sometimes help them implement it as well.

I'm using the most recent version. It's somewhere around version 8.

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. If it says it should be approved, then automatically approve it. It's definitely a time saver for a lot of people.

It has got a great user interface, and it just does the job.

It tends to be more expensive, but at the end of the day, it works.

I have been using it for probably 15 years. 

Its stability is very good. It's running so well now. I'd rate it a nine out of ten in terms of stability.

Its scalability is awesome. They've got customers with over a million users, so it'll scale to what you need. It has a very scalable architecture.

I'm a consultant, and I implement it for clients. I've worked with clients from 5,000 users and up to about 400,000 users.

I'd rate them really high. They have a group called Expert Services. They rely on third parties like me or the big four, like the Deloittes and the PWs, to do the implementation, but they maintain a group that they call their Expert Services. It has about a hundred people you can go to for the hardest things. If you were on the edge of performance issues and any other issues, you can bring in their experts. It's a really good team. It's more expensive than the other guys, but it's worth it.

IdentityIQ is difficult to begin with, but compared to its competitors, it'd be an eight out of ten in terms of ease of setup.

The deployment duration varies. They've got examples of people being up and running in a month. For massive companies with hundreds or thousands of employees, it takes a couple of years to get fully implemented, but they've got ways where you can implement it almost by a business unit, so you can be up and running and then slowly, you add the rest of the company to the implementation.

In terms of the number of people required, the actual SailPoint team would be three to four people, and then they use the business analysts in the company to help onboard the application. That's a really nice methodology where I can spread the workload over a bunch of people instead of having to rely on one person and get those backlogs and lineups form. For example, I can have a business analyst from the business units I'm working with help me onboard applications. That really speeds it up.

In terms of the deployment model, they have a SaaS version, but you can do it on-prem, and you can also do it with the hybrid model.

It depends on your company, but I've seen ROIs in 14 to 18 months. So, it's great.

It's all competitive. Initially, the prices look a bit higher, but once it gets into a competitive situation, they meet the market. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing. It tends to be more expensive, but it works.

They've got such a big lead in the market from a capabilities point of view. They're going after the cloud, so they're doing a lot in the cloud management area and making that easier for clients to implement it for managing the applications in the cloud space or all their SaaS applications. That's one of the big areas. They just did the acquisition of SecZetta, which provides management for third parties. For partners and third parties you work with, it can help automate the management of access to those people.

I'd rate it a nine out of ten because what it does is hard. The work that they implement isn't simple because the companies are so big. It works and does the job. It's not the product that causes problems; it's generally working with the company and its processes, but the product is bulletproof.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is for identity and access management.

What I like most about SailPoint IdentityIQ is that it's simple to use and easy to configure and deploy.

The pricing for SailPoint IdentityIQ has room for improvement because it's more expensive than other products in the market. If there's a price reduction, that would be helpful.

Another area for improvement in the product is the technical support, which needs to be more friendly to customers.

I want custom form building and custom workflow features added to SailPoint IdentityIQ in its next release.

I started using SailPoint IdentityIQ in 2015, so I have almost eight years of experience with it.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very stable product.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is a scalable product.

The SailPoint IdentityIQ technical support can be a bit irritating when doing system inspections. When you have an issue and ask for help, support will tell you that you need professional support, not just regular support.

The technical support team could be more friendly.

I'd give SailPoint IdentityIQ support a three on a scale of one to five.

I've tried Saviynt but compared to SailPoint IdentityIQ, Saviynt isn't stable. It also has fewer features compared to what you get from SailPoint IdentityIQ. For me, SailPoint IdentityIQ is better because of its stability, and it offers many features. However, cost-wise, Saviynt is cheaper.

SailPoint IdentityIQ has a straightforward setup. I'd rate its setup a five out of five.

SailPoint is expensive compared to its competitors. It's one of the most expensive products, so I'd rate it as one out of five, cost-wise.

I'm using SailPoint IdentityIQ, SailPoint IdentityNow, and Auth0.

My rating for SailPoint IdentityIQ is eight out of ten.

My company is a SailPoint partner.

IdentityIQ is connected to all our target systems to manage access to various applications.

IdentityIQ's best features are the hassle-free user experience and security.

There are various functions that don't work in IdentityIQ, including the access request reminder, which doesn't go to the approvals in the proper format, so it's hard for users to read. In the next release, IdentityIQ should enable emails and reports through the UI instead of the code.

I've been using IdentityIQ for two years.

IdentityIQ is very stable.

IdentityIQ is scalable manually and automatedly.

The initial setup was easy, and the implementation was completed within four months.

I would rate IdentityIQ nine out of ten because the UI is really easy for end users to understand and use.

We're using SailPoint IdentityIQ for these purposes: user access, authentication, and governance review access.

SailPoint IdentityIQ has improved my organization as it's used mainly to provide access to first-time users and also for other actions around managing access.

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.

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've been using SailPoint IdentityIQ for two years.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is a stable solution.

We didn't have contact with the technical support for SailPoint IdentityIQ because we're using a third party for support.

Ten of our administrators used Append to control executive activities prior to using SailPoint IdentityIQ, but in general, we found SailPoint IdentityIQ to be more useful in maintaining information, access roles, and permissions. The solution does exactly what we needed it to do.

The initial setup for SailPoint IdentityIQ was straightforward.

We used a third party to implement SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in the beginning, but nowadays, we can implement the solution on our own. In the beginning, we had a problem with the rules inside the platform, but the third party helped us in solving the problem and installed and configured SailPoint IdentityIQ appropriately.

Right now, I'm not sure if there's ROI from SailPoint IdentityIQ, but within a few months or so, there will be.

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.

We evaluated other solutions, but SailPoint IdentityIQ proved to be more adequate for us to use, and we found that not a single solution or tool was exactly better than SailPoint IdentityIQ.

I'm not sure about the version of SailPoint IdentityIQ my company is using, but it's probably the newest version.

My company has ten administrators of SailPoint IdentityIQ and around one thousand users. Ten technicians maintain the solution. My company maintains the solution and always keeps it updated, so integrating other solutions to SailPoint IdentityIQ won't be a problem.

In terms of rating SailPoint IdentityIQ, nine is a good score for me. My company is very happy with the solution.

My company is a customer of SailPoint IdentityIQ.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is used for reporting and identity, account, and access management.

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.

If you compare Saviynt and Okta Workforce Identity versus SailPoint IdentityIQ, SailPoint IdentityIQ needs to improve its UI.

I have been using SailPoint IdentityIQ for approximately four years.

When using SailPoint IdentityIQ you need to tell them the capacity you want, and they will provide the solution with the appropriate license. For example, you have to tell them initially that you will have 50,000 users using the solution then they will tell you how much service you will need to deploy.

The technical support is not very good but it is good. They can improve.

I have previously used Saviynt and Okta Workforce Identity.

The initial setup of SailPoint IdentityIQ is easy. The time of deployment can take approximately two days.

We did the implementation of SailPoint IdentityIQ in-house.

My advice to others is if you are new to the identity access management world, and you are starting with SailPoint IdentityIQ, you have the best tool in your hand to start with. You can receive complete exposure to all the types of operations or workflows.

I rate SailPoint IdentityIQ a nine out of ten.

As an academic institution, we have HR students and third parties.

The solution’s stability and performance are good.

The primary difference fundamentally is the state of the identity over time. So, the point-in-time identity drives the identity management, and that will improve the integrity of the identity management.

The connectors should be improved.

We had issues with the stability of the solution.

The solution is very scalable.

30-50 users are using this solution.

The initial setup depends on the type of proposition.

The product’s pricing depends on strategic servers. It is affordable for us to sustain ourselves.

I recommend the solution.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use SailPoint IdentityIQ mainly for employees. It's not a customer identity and access management tool. It's mainly for the workforce. All my clients choose SailPoint IdentityIQ because they need some tool that will govern and do the compliance at their end. We are mainly integrating all the applications for the organization, just like their HR, to do the governance in just one place, namely in SailPoint IdentityIQ. We're using SailPoint IdentityIQ for provisioning, granting access, taking access, automatic onboarding, and off-boarding. We also use SailPoint IdentityIQ for employees' joiner, mover, and leaver workflow. We use SailPoint IdentityIQ for automatically reprovisioning all the roles and accesses.

The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager. In addition, the password manager module is replacing the call center for any organization by doing self-service password services, resetting passwords, and unlocking accounts.

SailPoint IdentityIQ has a primitive AI engine. It doesn't compare to the autonomous engine that uses machine learning and deep learning in ForgeRock.

It would be great to have an autonomous engine that uses machine learning and deep learning to find orphan accounts, accesses not used by employees and extra accesses.

I have been doing a SailPoint IdentityIQ pre sales presentation for two years and a real product implementation for six months.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is a stable solution, and I rate it a nine out of ten for stability.

I rate SailPoint IdentityIQ less than five out of ten for scalability. To increase scalability, you need to increase servers, which is not easy.

The technical support in the Middle East is being done through partners. SailPoint IdentityIQ has no physical presence in the Middle East except through its partners and distributors. However, SailPoint IdentityIQ's remote support is always available. SailPoint IdentityIQ's technical support is good because they are always available when the partners or the implementation team face any issues.

Positive

The initial setup of SailPoint IdentityIQ was very easy, and I rate it a ten out of ten. We have an automatic deployment engine, so the deployment takes around an hour, not long.

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

Our clients using SailPoint IdentityIQ are mainly in the banking sector, and the others are part of the Saudi Arabia government and ministry. For 12 years, SailPoint IdentityIQ twelve has been the leader of Gartner Magic Quadrant. All the market reports suggest SailPoint IdentityIQ when you're doing governance and compliance for your workforce. SailPoint IdentityIQ is even replacing other solutions like IBM and ServiceNow.

SailPoint IdentityIQ is a stable and reliable workforce identity and access management solution. If you're looking for a solution for the workforce, you should opt for SailPoint IdentityIQ, and if you're looking for a solution for the customer base, you should choose ForgeRock.

Overall, I rate SailPoint IdentityIQ a ten out of ten.
