Comprehensive documentation streamlines implementation with opportunity to improve user experience
I typically use Delinea Privileged Access Service within my IT infrastructure management for consulting, to secure privileged access, recording, session recording, password vault, etcetera The most common solution I find effective for protecting sensitive data is the most common features of…

Centralized identity governance has automated lifecycle management and simplifies compliance
One Identity Manager could be improved by making the initial setup and configuration simpler, especially for complex workflows and integrations. The user interface and reporting dashboards could also be more modern and intuitive with better out-of-the-box analytics. Additionally, clearer documentation and faster implementation guidance would help organizations get value more quickly. One specific challenge my team encountered was the complexity during initial configuration, especially when setting up custom workflows and role models which required more time and expertise. We also felt that out-of-the-box reports and dashboards are limited, and more customizable real-time analytics would be helpful. Better documentation and guided setup wizards would make adoption easier, particularly for teams new to identity governance tools. One improvement I think One Identity Manager needs is the enhanced self-service experience. The end-user self-service portal could be more intuitive with clearer guidance for access requests and password resets. Additionally, while integrations are solid, deeper cloud-native connectors and API-driven automation would help in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. A more responsive mobile interface or dedicated app for approvals and tasks would help managers who are often on the go. One more improvement is the built-in predictive insights or trend dashboards around access patterns and risk could improve proactive governance. More descriptive error messages and in-tool troubleshooting tips during setup configuration would reduce dependency on external documentation or support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability and performance are excellent."
"The reporting is excellent."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets because it helps keep track of inventory."
"The privileged account management feature is what I like most."
"Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management."
"This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."
"I have seen a great return on investment with One Identity Manager, especially in terms of time-saving and reduced manual efforts, saving 70 to 80% of time compared to previous methods and allowing for almost 90% faster access removal or granting, making it a great solution for my environment."
"The solution is a typical, conventional IGA but the tool itself offers many options for customization."
"Provisioning users and permissions has been automated."
"It's very easy to roll out."
"The product is flexible. For example, it offers cloud features."
"Now, we get data from HR when a new hire begins and we have the user account, mailbox, and default permissions for the organization available approximately two hours later."
"We have seen a slight reduction in help desk calls, as this solution is a self-service product."
"One Identity is one of the most feature-rich platforms on the market. It covers every use case. The user interface has been improved, making it easier to make it look like what customers want. It's easier to customize than a lot of competition solutions. There are nearly a thousand built-in processes that you can edit and customize according to your needs."
 

Cons

"The integration with sync could be improved."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"The pricing and presence could be improved."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly."
"Enhancing the solution by incorporating additional features to make it comprehensive would be beneficial. It would be more convenient to have a complete package solution that consolidates all the features in one place, making it easier to manage. Currently, I am required to access two separate servers for reports, which could be avoided if all the necessary features were available in a single location. This would be highly advantageous for managing everything effectively."
"My thoughts about support of Delinea in general are that they are so so."
"One area that could be improved is the speed of performance - it's often a bit slower because of the size of its database."
"We fell into that trap of over-customization which made upgrading the product difficult."
"It can have a clearer navigation map of the user interface and user provisioning. The documentation lacks step-by-step details on common tasks like creating roles, running action reviews, and version control."
"The tool did not allow beyond a specific level of visibility; it provided visibility at the user level, not at the level of nested entitlements, resulting in an inaccurate depiction from the asset manager's point of view."
"Visually, I would like it to be more user-friendly."
"The integration process with SAP has been the worst. It has been really difficult because our SAP is really customized."
"A major area for improvement is Web Designer. If One Identity Manager advances this, it will greatly benefit all customers."
"With technical support, it is always an issue to get the right person."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"My clients have been using it for a long time now. They have looked at other products as well, so it seems worth the price."
"One Identity isn't cheap for small or medium-sized businesses, but I don't think it's necessary for a small company to use. The price is fair for large enterprises with thousands of employees that want to adopt a zero-trust model."
"It's not cheap, but the pricing is okay. Other applications cost about the same."
"One Identity Manager has a reasonable price point."
"It's costlier that some other products, and there is nothing that fits every solution."
"The pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions."
"The price of One Identity Manager is cheaper than SailPoint."
"The licensing for One Identity Manager is per user, per carbon life, specifically, it's per people, and not a per-identity licensing model. For example, if I have two hundred people, or if I have someone with several identities, I'm only paying for it once. I don't remember the exact cost of One Identity Manager because I wasn't the one who paid for the license."
