Enhanced automation and AI-driven integration offer significant time savings
The most valuable features include its ability to integrate with AI and machine learning, the automation of reports, and the built-in connectors that enable easy connection with both legacy and cloud-based applications. Its code-less drag-and-drop functionality allows for easier adjustments, and it provides strong support with reduced SLAs compared to SailPoint IQ.

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."
"The solution offers high performance."
"The most valuable feature is its knowledge."
"DirX Directory is the best feature of the product: a very fast, stable LDAP directory."
"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."
"Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable."
"The compliance features are the most valuable features."
"Has a great certification module with intuitive options."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."
"It is a scalable product."
"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."
"IdentityIQ deserves a rating of 12 out of ten for stability."
 

Cons

"Needs more available consultants and implementation partners."
"The price could be better. It would be better if they developed a better endpoint solution in the next release."
"An overall modernization of the product is required in order to keep up with newer products."
"The user interface could be more convenient for people that don't know the tool too intensively."
"The Self-Service Portal is old school and it lacks easy accessibility for users."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ could be cheaper."
"The connectors should be improved."
"The pricing could be improved."
"The solution, in general, is quite expensive."
"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 connector for EPIC, ServiceNow, and Duo."
"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple."
"The user interface is not very user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price could be better."
"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."
"Its price is okay. It provides good value for money. It is subscription-based. You can go for a one-year or three-year subscription."
"The solution is not cheap."
"SailPoint IIQ is the best of best. That is reflected in the pricing of the solution. The pricing is based on the number of identities."
"It is affordable licensing."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."
"The pricing is based on the number of users and is reasonable."
"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."
