Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The role and attribute-based access control has been greatly improved."
"DirX Directory is the best feature of the product: a very fast, stable LDAP directory."
"The most valuable feature is its knowledge."
"The solution offers high performance."
"It offers a single source of truth. Everything can be handled from one tier."
"This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance."
"IdentityIQ deserves a rating of 12 out of ten for stability."
"It provides a lot of out-of-the-box functionalities. You don't have to do too much custom development like other solutions such as Microsoft or NetIQ. It also has a lot of out-of-the-box connectors for different sources, directories, databases, etc. Its cloud version is working very well, and its pricing is okay. Its value for money is fine for most of the customers. It is also very flexible. They have frequent new releases and patches for fixing errors and things like that."
"The most powerful feature of the solution is its platform-based approach. Unlike other solutions, this tool offers a high level of customization. It is an open and flexible platform, allowing users to tailor it to their needs. This ability to customize and adapt the solution to individual requirements makes the solution stand out as a powerful product."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its integration with Slack for the notification of access requests."
"The compliance features are the most valuable features."
"Good life cycle management, segregation of duties, and analytics features."
 

Cons

"The price could be better. It would be better if they developed a better endpoint solution in the next release."
"The Self-Service Portal is old school and it lacks easy accessibility for users."
"An overall modernization of the product is required in order to keep up with newer products."
"Needs more available consultants and implementation partners."
"The user interface could be more convenient for people that don't know the tool too intensively."
"Needs to focus on automation wherein provisioning of work can be improved and access certification should be automated without the intervention from a manager for approval."
"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."
"The connectors should be improved."
"The product is unable to share suggestions with users."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has a primitive AI engine."
"The cost can be prohibitive for middle-tier companies."
"One needs to understand that SailPoint is into full-fledged IAM practice with a long-term vision, and customers will get a quick ROI with best practices implementation."
"The mover process for this solution could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price could be better."
"I rate the solution a seven on a scale where one is cheap and ten is too expensive. In short, the solution falls under the higher side of pricing."
"The product is expensive. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"The price of the solution could improve, it is not priced well for smaller businesses to afford."
"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."
"The pricing is a little bit higher than other tools."
"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
"It is affordable licensing."
