Entrust GetAccess vs Symantec Siteminder comparison

"The most valuable feature of Entrust GetAccess is its performance."

"You can quickly deploy the entire product with a basic config within couple of hours."

"It is reliable."

"All of our applications get a point, click, and you are in, while we increase security at the same time."

"It is very scalable. We have a very large customer base: 75 million customers."

"The solution has features that allow you to easily distinguish between protected and unprotected resources."

"It is pretty easy to learn."

"It provides the breadth and the width to provide solutions for the different kinds of technologies which we have."

"Siteminder allows us to manage identity and portability control efficiently."

"Entrust GetAccess is a very expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."

"We're currently unable to find information about if the solution can do a full implementation with SQL. Some better and more accessible documentation for new users or those curious about the product would be helpful."

"If the reporting feature can be integrated into SSO itself that will be an icing on the cake."

"Symantec SiteMinder is not easy to set up and maintain at an infrastructure level."

"All the problems that we reported actually have never been resolved. We could not capture enough information for CA to be able to debug the problem."

"The support team could work on their response time and overall competence."

"To add more value to this solution it needs to be more user-friendly."

"I would like to see a move towards the newer technologies, which is what we are doing right now. I think that's in the roadmap that's coming, in the 12.8 and 14 releases, but we would like to have it sooner than later."

"We would like to the OAuth be more stable, more issues being fixed rather than not."

"We need to pay a yearly licensing fee for Entrust GetAccess, which is very expensive."

"I recommend conducting a PoC on every available product before choose one."

"The price is quite comparable to the other enterprise-level solutions in that market."

"Symantec Siteminder is expensive; they could definitely do better on the price."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"Siteminder is a little costly. You pay for licensing, and they offer packages, so if you have less users, then you have to buy different products at different prices. If you have more of a user base, then the package is different. They also include other features—for example, if you have a database and you're using Siteminder, then it's good to use a Semantic-specific database, but if you are using less, then you have to purchase the database separately. Whereas if you are going for a bigger license, then it comes within the package. It depends on which plan you are using."

"The solution's pricing is competitive."

"CA solutions are generally expensive but for the customer the ROI is big."

"The licensing is fair for this solution."
