Provides strong authentication feature, which requires users to enter a one-time password (OTP)

The main issue I've noticed pertains to setting up the desktop client on virtual machines in Azure, GCP, or AWS, specifically for Entrust Identity Enterprise intended for on-premises use. It works for on-premises, but I'm not sure if it's fully supported in cloud environments. If support were added, it would function perfectly with on-premises configurations. So, it functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP.

Identity and Access Management Manager at NeuGen

Simplifies the task of managing groups and is affordable and easy to implement

I'd like to see it be able to do more than just groups. I'd like it to be able to do some things with email distribution lists as well. It can do that, but there were a few things that were limiting. It was difficult to get it set up, particularly with Azure in the cloud. I'd like that to be a little bit smoother. I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools. We've got a ton of groups, and it does take quite a while to do nightly processing. This is something that definitely needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am impressed with Entrust because they are one of the most advanced identity access management companies. Their portfolio of products is well aligned with the CISA zero trust framework. If you compare the features of Entrust products with the CISA pillars of zero trust, you'll see that they're perfectly matched with CISA requirements."

"The integration matrix of the solution is huge compared to others."

"It is a scalable solution. You can add users and credentials without problems."

"Entrust is an enterprise account, and they have a support system. Their training is also top-notch, and they are willing to share their knowledge with their partners."

"This solution is flexible and easy to use for our clients. We use it with different kinds of applications and integrate it with different processes."

"I have found the overall features to be useful."

"Imanami GroupID's UI is good."

"For each job code, we go through and determine the access they're supposed to have to the system. Based on that job code, we use the query tool and say that anybody who is in this job code gets these groups added to them, or conversely, if they change job codes, it removes the ones that they shouldn't have and adds the one they should. That runs every night, and the next day, everybody has the job codes they're supposed to have."

Cons

"I would like to improve the tool's implementation and pricing."

"We are introducing new processes and are migrating to a new version. Once we explore new functionalities, we'll be able to assess what could be improved."

"The product is very costly compared to other alternative solutions."

"It functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP."

"The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO."

"The mobile application needs to be improved and there should be chatbox features to allow users to easily reach out for assistance."

"I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the product's pricing a five out of ten."

"The subscription could be yearly or monthly, depending upon your choice."

"It's worth the money."

"It is on a yearly basis, and it has the product license fee and the support for it. So, there is the licensing fee, and there is the annual maintenance that includes the support. I don't remember exactly, but we're probably paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 to $30,000 for it per year. We've got a pretty large implementation of it, and for the amount that we do, it is a pretty good deal. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."
