End users can be enabled to help themselves."
"We are able to onboard new user accounts much faster by automating the process and standardizing our operations globally. Previously, there were many individual processes and manual admin interactions. We also see a lot of cost savings and benefits because through automation and standardization."
"User-friendly solution."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors."
"The customer success and support teams have been crucial."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"The most valuable feature in Omada is the governance. We work with other products and other product vendors, but the sweet spot in the market for Omada is where things are heavy on governance."
"Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is an easy-to-use solution."
"The product enables SSO."
"FortiAuthenticator is really good software that integrates very well with Fortinet products."
"FortiAuthenticator is a very good solution. It is all jury-based. FortiAuthenticator is very easy for anyone to understand how it works and be able to take action."
"It keeps track of users and their IPs no matter where they are in the network. When users roam, we don't have to worry about not mapping them to an IP."
"The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiAuthenticator are easy to configure, secure, and the application has good performance."
"The solution is easy to learn and makes it easy for our users to add FortiToken. It's very easy to integrate if you have other Fortinet devices."
"I prefer the passing tool that sent an active directory console to a Fortinet FortiAuthenticator, then Fortinet FortiAuthenticator does not pass the locks."
"The most valuable feature of One Identity Manager for me is its Designer tool."
"The most valuable features include the automated attestations or recertification... The time that people have to focus on their real jobs and not spend it doing recertifications is huge."
"There are a lot of valuable features, including connectors, attestations, and workflow."
"One Identity Manager is user-friendly and easy to customize. One Identity's business roles enable me to map company structures for dynamic application provisioning, which is fairly important."
"It's a huge toolkit, and you can do a lot of stuff with it. You can extend nearly everything, so if you want to build something that may not have been though of by the vendor. Compared with other distributors who design their products to certain specification, you can put in your own processes, because not all companies function the same. You can write what you want, and the process should be like that."
"The solution does lots of things that we did manually before."
"The most valuable feature of One Identity Manager is its object-oriented architecture."
"The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution."
"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"Documentation can be improved. I have already filed a few suggestions to make documentation more clear and more representative of reality."
"In our organization, all the data is event-driven, which means that if an attribute is changed in the source system, it can be updated within a few seconds in all end-user systems. There is room for improvement in Omada regarding that. Omada is still batch-based for some processes, so sometimes it can take an hour or even four hours before the execution is run and the update is sent."
"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"There's a challenge with handling large amounts of data in this system."
"It does the job I paid for, but the graphical interface could be improved."
"No SMS gateway from the ISP"
"I don't have any issues with this solution, but it may need a better, more user-friendly interface or better design of the platform."
"I would like to see some email options for Fortinet FortiAuthenticator."
"The integration with third-party tools must be better."
"Fortinet FortiAuthenticator's initial setup process could be easier."
"For improvement, Fortinet needs to ensure that they provide quick support to users...Fortinet sometimes needs to respond to users facing issues within an hour."
"There are multiple areas that are in need of improvement. It is not a mature product."
"The web portal can be a bit muggy at times. This is one of the key complaints from our customers."
"The user interface needs to improve."
"It is a large solution where you need to learn how to work in a certain way for it to provide the best benefit."
"A feature that I would like to see is a mobile app that provides users the ability to make changes or add users to the Active Directory, on the fly."
"A room for improvement in One Identity Manager is its analytics. Though it's getting better from version to version, the analytics feature still needs improvement. I would appreciate more analytical features in the next release of One Identity Manager, so I can do a better analysis. Another vendor, for example, has a self-certification system where you can send people, then create a type of profile or screen for each person, and the person can see his entitlement and the risks behind that entitlement, so then the person makes a decision on whether he wants to keep or let go of it, and that's an out-of-the-box feature that would be good to see in One Identity Manager. Another feature I'd like to see in One Identity Manager that would be very interesting is integration with SIEM or any log collection product for both access and usage. For example, I'd be able to see that I have access to a particular application and also get information on how many times I've accessed it in the last year, last few months, etc. It's a feature that would be great to have in One Identity Manager."
"The initial setup was complex. It is an extremely complicated thing to replace an entire self-built solution."
"It has problems with performance. This is a very serious issue for us. Other than that, it's really capable. The performance is what is missing. It's really poor."
"There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal."
