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…
Neha Chhangani - PeerSpot reviewer
Business Analyst at a startup based organization
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

"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"The reporting is excellent."
"The solution is flexible."
"Being able to access servers, web applications, network devices, etc. securely from anywhere, with MFA, with workflows that can be added for extra security, powerful auditing and reporting features, and easy Privileged Account Management, all backed by excellent support."
"Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management."
"The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets because it helps keep track of inventory."
"The stability and performance are excellent."
"I greatly appreciate the initial approach provided by One Identity Manager."
"The solution offers good integration with other environments such as SAP and Active Directory, et cetera."
"I have a very positive opinion of One Identity Manager; in all honesty, it's the best application that I've used."
"An outstanding feature of One Identity Manager, compared to SailPoint, is the dashboard where they present everything. With the dashboard, the customer can see how the integrations have happened."
"The One Identity birthright process has helped generate user accounts more accurately and quickly."
"The solution is flexible. You can customize it a lot. You can can build connectors, connecting them to a new application, and so on."
"The business role management feature is pretty good because we have a lot of dynamic roles, and you can configure it with the filters."
"One Identity Manager has had a positive impact on our organization as it has allowed us to streamline the use of Active Directory accounts and strengthen our security."
 

Cons

"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"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."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff."
"The integration with sync could be improved."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk."
"The UI and user experience side of things needs improvement."
"The initial setup was complex."
"One Identity should open the market with accessible training material and content so that more developers can be available. They have to improve their marketing strategy, partners, and vendors. One Identity should be attracting engineers to learn their product and get certified. They should have strong forums. They could have a certification program where any engineer can get certified. However, their overall approach is complex, which I do not prefer."
"It can have a clearer navigation map of the user interface and user provisioning."
"One Identity Manager is currently in the process of modernizing its UI, which I hope will result in a more user-friendly interface for its Identity Manager. However, it is uncertain whether they have plans to consolidate their various tools into a unified system to simplify configuration and tasks."
"The product's GUI could be more user-friendly."
"Some internal structures are in place because of already depreciated functions back from the time when the solution was used for software deployment and as a help desk."
"I would like them to enhance the search functionality to enable faster processing when looking for objects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"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 is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"One Identity Manager's pricing is competitive and in line with what other companies offer."

"One Identity Manager is cost-efficient."
"I believe the pricing is fair."
"Its price is okay."
"It was okay for us. It was not too much for us. It was nearly the same as other products. It was not expensive."
