Decreases user onboarding and offboarding time, and invaluable for discussing shadow IT and security

One of the most valuable features of Auvik SaaS Management is the insights into user applications and the security around that. We can understand and get full visibility into what end-users are using. Most organizations can list off the top five apps that they use but, lo and behold, we're able to discover that there are 30 or 40 apps in use within the organization that nobody knew about. From a security standpoint, helping to track those down is very critical and Auvik SaaS Management allows us to do that. The single sign-on detection feature is also very important. If we have single sign-on, we can see what they're leveraging that sign-on to gain access to. And an extremely important component of Auvik SaaS Management is the reporting engine. It allows us to perform assessments and sit down with organizations to review what they're actually doing with their SaaS apps. Typically, when we come in, they have no idea how many SaaS apps they have out there. They might not know that someone in accounting or someone in marketing just purchased something to accomplish a task. The reporting gives us visibility into that and is done in a fashion in which it's very easy to understand, with some of the executive summaries. We don't have to spend time having technical discussions about what the information means. We're able to have the discussion of what it means to the business and for solving problems there. The reporting is absolutely critical and they do a good job of it.

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

"We use the solution to track unauthorized apps our employees use so we can talk to them or block the apps at the firewall if needed. More importantly, we track shared credentials and services employees access on company devices, especially when someone's leaving. If someone had access to a shared account, which we try to avoid, but if there was one with a logged-in password, we can change it when we off-board the employee or shut down their account."

"When we offboard an employee, we know which applications that employee used. For example, let's say Bob left the company, but we don't know all the applications he used. We can run a report showing everything Bob accessed, giving us some leverage to go back to the client and say, "Hey, these are all the applications he used. We manage these, and you still need to take care of these." It gives us expectations to provide to our clients."

"The ability to see what accounts and services are being accessed at any given time is valuable, and that's also true for most of my clients. Another good use is time management. If one of my clients asks me, "Hey, how long is John accessing Dropbox throughout the day?" I can do that with Auvik SaaS Management. Auvik SaaS Management can give me a report on the usage of a single user."

"The most valuable features are application monitoring and reporting. I like putting all the filters on the report to get the desired results. Reporting is one of the essential features we use, depending on what is required. I run it monthly or quarterly. We have some reports scheduled to run monthly to track new applications coming in. We're good at going through them and classifying them."

"The license monitoring and management capabilities probably top the list of most valuable features in terms of everyday day utility. You can go to customers and say, "You have 100 licenses of Office 365 E3, but you only use 95, so we can adjust your licensing and save you some money.""

"Auvik SaaS Management gives us the tools to classify the applications from a management standpoint. It also provides an overview of when various software might be up for renewal on an agreement."

"The most valuable feature is the identification of the various user names used to log into apps that are critical in terms of data security."

"We can understand and get full visibility into what end-users are using. Most organizations can list off the top five apps that they use but, lo and behold, we're able to discover that there are 30 or 40 apps in use within the organization that nobody knew about."

"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."

"Good life cycle management, segregation of duties, and analytics features."

"This solution is easy to configure."

"I like IdentityIQ's granular attachment management and certification customization features."

"IdentityIQ deserves a rating of 12 out of ten for stability."

"Great product to manage the access control of users."

"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."

"This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance."

Cons

"Integration with macOS and Apple devices could be better. I believe this is something they're working on, but it needs a little more work."

"They've started working on integrations with other platforms for sharing data across other tools that are commonly used in the industry. I'd like to see that continue to improve. They do have to make the integrations deeper."

"They're working on Auvik's ability to detect when people are using multifactor authentication, but some more automation in that area would be nice."

"The reporting is excellent, but it could always be better. Sometimes we'd like the reports to be in different formats. Auvik SaaS Management could also be better integrated with some of our other tools. It's like an island unto itself, but we're an Autotask shop. We use Datto RMM and Autotask PSA. It'd be great to see Auvik SaaS Management alerts in our Autotask tools."

"The web portal isn't very intuitive, especially for me. I struggle while creating permissions to allow clients to do the portal. It was a little tricky, but I was able to contact people from Auvik SaaS Management, and they helped me."

"Before Auvik bought Saaslio, we struggled with the single sign-on because it would sign you off quickly. I would be presenting to my clients on the software or categorizing, like, "Hey, what is this app used for?" When I was inside Saaslio, it would kick me out, so I would have to log back in."

"One area for improvement in the tool , which they said might be on the roadmap, is better integration of features like tagging product owners, leaving notes, and setting statuses such as pending review, approved, deployed, etc. I want to use the product to write notes under an application, like when people start using the Brave Browser, and tag Billy Bob, who manages it. I want a report showing all the products Billy Bob owns, along with associated notes, so I can discuss everything with him in one meeting. Currently, I have to click on each application individually and copy and paste notes elsewhere, which isn't efficient."

"The user interface and some of the application classification features could be improved. I'd love the ability to bulk-edit some of the applications."

"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."

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

"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."

"The UI is complex."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ could be cheaper."

"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 user interface could be slightly improved. It could be made simpler and more user-friendly, however, it is good enough right now."

"Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is great. It doesn't get any better. I told their CEO, "I feel like I'm stealing it from you." I'm serious because the price is amazing."

"The solution's pricing and licensing model are fair and based on users rather than devices, which helps consolidate tracking and licensing costs."

"I think Auvik SaaS Management's pricing is great. We're a managed services company, and one site license covers all our clients."

"Auvik SaaS Management is priced well. It's a no-brainer for us to implement it."

"There is definitely value from Auvik SaaS Management, so I don't think it's outrageously priced. There's always room for evolution of the model, depending on how the platform is being leveraged."

"The price of the solution could improve, it is not priced well for smaller businesses to afford."

"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."

"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."

"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 a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."

"I found the pricing to be relatively high."

"It is affordable licensing."

"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
