Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 1, 2024

One Identity Manager and ForgeRock are two prominent products competing in the identity and access management category. Based on feature richness, customization, and flexibility, One Identity Manager appears to have an upper hand. However, ForgeRock stands out in security and seamless third-party integration, making it a preferred choice for organizations prioritizing these aspects.

Features: One Identity Manager is renowned for its robust logical schema naming, flexible reporting, and extensive customization abilities, offering a clean graphical user interface and easy configuration. It includes strong out-of-the-box connectors for platforms like SAP, LDAP, and MS Active Directory. Conversely, ForgeRock excels in comprehensive security features, intelligent authentication, and easy adaptation to multiple environments. Its integration capabilities with third-party applications ensure consistent operations.

Room for Improvement: One Identity Manager is criticized for complex synchronization, inadequate documentation, and challenging UI navigability. There are reported issues with configuration, cloud integration, and job server efficiency. ForgeRock faces challenges with its customization complexity and occasional instability due to its open-source background. It could benefit from enhancements in UI responsiveness and biometric and KYC integration.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: One Identity Manager supports on-premises, public, and hybrid cloud deployments, providing flexibility. It receives praise for comprehensive support, primarily through partners, although response times can be inconsistent. ForgeRock features simpler deployments across various environments compared to One Identity Manager, with a focus on direct and agile technical support.

Pricing and ROI: One Identity Manager is noted for competitive pricing and ROI improvements through automation and provisioning efficiencies, seen as cost-effective compared to solutions like SailPoint. ForgeRock offers value but is perceived as costly, despite having a free open-source version available. Both products deliver ROI by enhancing productivity and streamlining processes, with One Identity Manager often preferred for its attractive pricing model in enterprise settings.

Which one is best: Quest One Identity Manager or Forgerock Identity Management

While I can't comment on Forgerock Identity Management, I can still share my two cents on 1IM based on my experience with it for the past few years: 1. Configurations - Mostly wizard based configurations, so it's not to complex in that sense. Configuration options are also plenty. Good out of box connector support for AD, SAP, LDAP etc. 2. Customization - Process orchestration is fairly flexible and allows for creation of custom processes that can invoke various actions. Scripts written within 1IM are in VB.NET. 3. Support - Average support experience so far. In some cases, we get prompt and thorough responses with good follow ups, whereas, sometimes the experience is quite the opposite. Some escalation engineers are very knowledgeable and it can be a really great experience troubleshooting with them. 4. Client implementations - Till now, I have been involved in 3-4 implementations. All of them had varying levels of complexity. While the product allows for a lot of customizations, from personal experience, I would say that it is always a better practice to promote out of box functionalities first even if they require some process changes. Customizations can often get out of hand very quickly and with constant revisions/upgrades happening to the tool, it may be so that customizations don't migrate that well when upgrading. Like the v6 to v7 was a major product upgrade and a lot of v6 customizations did not port over as expected. Apart from that, I also have a few very specific complaints with the product: - The DB queue behaves very inconsistently. Recently that caused a lot of grief in one of the implementations we were doing. The DB queue just gets stuck and doesn't process tasks and it has to be "pushed" manually. This happened in the Development environment so it wasn't the end of the world for us, but it was a major inconvenience nevertheless. - v7 introduced the concept of Extensions on the Web designer (it allowed for re-usability of certain elements within a module/component without the need of copying entire module/component). While I appreciated the idea at first, in practice it did not perform that well. It may just be me, but it was just a convoluted implementation which made the already cumbersome Web designer tool even more confusing. - Database Transporter issues - Transporting changes across environments can cause problems. Using change labels can sometimes lead to errors and can be a bit frustrating. As a practice, it's better to document changes stored within labels from the very beginning and store all transport files in a shared folder for hassle free migrations. Different kind of changes done (Designer changes, WebDesigner Changes, Sync Editor changes, Schema changes etc) all have different best practices and ways of transporting and it's better to know about that from the beginning. - Synchronization editor issues - v7 introduced the Sync. editor which is a great tool no doubt, but it doesn't feel robust. I have faced several issues using CSV connectors. Changes made to the schema of the CSV are often not synced up to 1IM even after "Updating Schema" on 1IM end. This can cause the definition of the connector to remain outdated. In some cases, I had to reconfigure the connector from scratch, which in itself is pretty easy to do but it can certainly cause inconvenience. - Cache issues - Like many tools, 1IM also caches a lot of information and makes use of that for faster processing. While that is okay most of the times, it can be very irritating when the tools keep using cached information even after changes have been made, committed and compiled. Often times, a manual cache deletion becomes necessary, otherwise the changes are never actually "picked" up by 1IM. Having said that, I still feel the tool is great and is certainly working towards great innovations in the IDM sphere. The GUI is very clean and informative and gives a great visual representation of objects, especially the 360-degree person view which shows person object connected to roles, departments/locations/cost centers, any connector accounts, any compliance violations etc. The tool offers some good reporting capabilities out of the box. A nice IT shop structure with a shopping cart based request/order flow. Robust out of box connectors for AD and SAP that are quite easy to set up. In all of the implementations, there have rarely been any cases where there was a requirement that 1IM couldn't implement.

The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview

The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.

It's easier to customize and maintain our code

I worked on two different projects based on ForgeRock, and both are automated deployments. One is a UI-based deployment. It's an automated process using some scripts. The deployments are done through Octopus, so it's also automated. We first deploy the essential components of AM and then implement additional configurations like Amster Imports. After that, we import all the SAML Federation data and add some certificates. We have two teams of five and three team members working on the different deployment processes. One is working on the dev side, another is looking at the higher environment, and one is managing the data. In another project, I'm the only developer. We also deploy on the dev environments so that anyone can test new features, configurations, and client requirements. They can test it on the dev environment, but a team of four people manages higher environments. The Access Management component involves the most customization, which takes around 15 to 20 minutes because of the need to import the Amster configuration. If another deployment is simultaneously happening, it may be a little slower and take around 30 minutes. The other components, like the user data stores, take about five to seven minutes. It's another five to 10 minutes for Identity Management. After deployment, the maintenance is mostly checking for security vulnerabilities. If ForgeRock shares security vulnerabilities or advisories, we check to see if there is something inside we need to maintain. Other than that, we just install updates when they add features each month.

Offers a more comprehensive and streamlined view of user identities and access

One of the most valuable features is the ability for business people to input their knowledge about business processes directly into the product. It's a good tool for anyone familiar with business or technical administration. The shopping cart capability for requests and the catalog features were also initially valuable. It's the best product for providing an enterprise view of logically disconnected SAP accounts. Sometimes, it's doing better than the SAP IG, which probably got discontinued or will be. One Identity Manager helps us connect SAP accounts to employee identities under governance. It is critical because there's no such thing as just SAP, and you want to centralize. You have Active Directory, SAP, and all the cloud applications. Every product has its user accounts, and One Identity allows you to connect them all in one place. One Identity Manager provides IGA for the more difficult-to-manage aspects of SAP. It lets you do many different things and go as deep as you want. The solution has a whole library of specialized SAP workflows for provisioning. You can build a customized web interface that you can do whatever you want with. The out-of-the-box interface for administrators or anybody else can take a little time to understand. It depends on the user's maturity. You must understand what's happening before touching the product. If you have experience using Identity Manager or similar tools, it's highly intuitive. It has so many features that it takes time to adopt, but that's not because it's difficult. The business roles are fundamental to role-based access controls. If you don't know how to build roles, it's very hard to do. One of the advantages of this particular product is that you don't have to be a technical person to build the role. You can log in as a business owner with a newly created project and add entitlements, users, or criteria. You can do it manually or using a formula. It's easy to do without any code.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the automatic provisioning and reconciliation of things like the Active Directory groups and memberships."

"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."

"Omada Identity Suite has a very powerful workflow engine. It is used for requesting access for approval to everything that's around Access Management and for re-certification purposes."

"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."

"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."

"Its best feature is definitely the process design. It is quite easy and straightforward to design a process."

"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."

"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."

More Omada Identity pros

"We have found the identity and access management tools in the solution to be particularly useful for our organization."

"Easy to customize and adaptable to any environment."

"The most valuable features of ForgeRock are social login and data protection."

"The solution integrates well and it is important for them to keep up with the current trends in the market quickly enough, and they have been doing a good job at it."

"I like the intelligent authentication feature."

"ForgeRock is an extensive product with many functionalities and capabilities, much more than many other tools combined."

"The product is easy to set up."

"The solution is very scalable. We have a lot of users that have been increasing over the years that we have been using it. We have approximately 20,000 users."

More ForgeRock pros

"I like the customer-facing portal because it is simple to use for end users."

"Even without any customization, if you install it, configure it, it's ready... It's very powerful. Without any customization, it starts working."

"Its flexibility is the most valuable feature, the way we can customize the user interface and the workflow processes."

"The most valuable feature of One Identity Manager is its object-oriented architecture."

"Business roles are one way to help companies to identify job codes and position codes. It enables the grouping and automating of certain types of access for certain departments... Doing that in One Identity Manager is a very simple task and it is very well organized."

"The One Identity Manager's user-friendly interface allows for easy external identities and user account creation."

"The most valuable features are centralized Identity Management, robust Access Governance, and One Identity Manager workflow automation."

"At the time of the onboarding, this is solution that we have interfacing with HR. On the same day an employee is hired, an account is created and available for the manager when the end user arrives. The opposite is true. The moment employment is terminated, the same day everything is disabled, then later deleted."

More One Identity Manager pros

Cons

"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."

"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."

"The solution should be made more agile for customers to own or configure."

"The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up."

"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."

"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."

"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."

"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience."

More Omada Identity cons

"The solution's documentation is not very good, and they do not give more details."

"As with any complex software platform, there is a learning curve to using ForgeRock, and it may require specialized expertise to implement and manage effectively."

"The solution could improve by adding more advertising and marketing."

"We raised tickets asking for improvements, but sometimes we don't get the proper solution. They are responding, but the ticket is open for weeks and weeks. For some issues, we don't get a satisfactory solution or the solution doesn't work."

"Automatic Deployment needs improvement. it could be made easier."

"The solution requires more simplified customization. However, part of the problem is my clients determining their own preferences. Technology can help and do many things, but you have to define your own policies to ensure that the solution or service works within those parameters. Helping customers understand their business and different processes is another issue not relating to the functionality of this solution."

"ForgeRock is an open source solution and is available to everyone but it is not freeware. If you need support, you need a subscription for ForgeRock. Many of its functionalities need to be built up with the help of a consultant."

"I don't think ForgeRock directly supports integrations with Slack, making it an area where improvements are required."

More ForgeRock cons

"They could make the product more user-friendly. It takes a lot of work to build technical and business cases with the product. The solution is more complex than you think to use."

"There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal."

"The performance is quite bad, but this is because we have a very old version."

"I would like to have more advanced features and reporting added to One Identity Manager."

"It is a very powerful solution, but when it comes to doing some complex parameterization or authorization, we end up coding. Comparatively, CA solutions require less coding. It is more powerful than the CA solutions, but you end up with coding in VB.Net or C#. Complex parameterization could be better from their side."

"The implementation of the tool and management on the infra side is a bit difficult."

"The product's GUI could be more user-friendly."

"Right now, they run an on-prem solution. Our preferred solution for cloud is Azure. So, we have yet to determine how we want to take this forward, because at this time, we are only using Graph APIs to do some Azure-related actions."

More One Identity Manager cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Omada Identity carries a premium price tag, it proves to be cost-effective."

"The pricing for Omada Identity is fair."

"They are positioned at a good price point. They are lower than some of their competitors."

"It is expensive. Fortunately, I had a very good procurement manager on my side, but they are expensive. The closest competitors are also very expensive. You get a full-fledged solution that can do everything you dream of, but you pay for everything."

"Omada isn't cheap or expensive. The licensing model is flexible. I've only had limited interactions with the Omada sales team, but they were positive. They don't sell the customers more licenses than they need. It's important to accurately forecast future usage. For example, we have many licenses that we don't use because we don't have the identities yet. We pay extra, which isn't good."

"The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."

"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."

"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

"Its price is comparable to other products in the market."

"The license is purchased annually per user. However, you can negotiate if you are signing for a longer period of time. When comparing this solution to others on the market it is priced fair, it is not at the top of the price range or at the bottom end."

"ForgeRock is an expensive solution."

"Its licensing is on a yearly basis, but it also depends on the contract that you have with the vendor. They have multiple types of contracts. There are additional costs to the standard licensing fees. If you need some of the features, you have to pay more."

"The pricing of the solution is fair but I do not have the full details."

"It's a bit pricey and could be more competitive."

"We have multiple clients we are looking at right now. We are at a very small number, however, the idea and the goal is to grow. We are looking at about $100,000 and $50,000 a minimum a month cost. That'd be minimum maybe in a couple of years."

"ForgeRock's pricing is more competitive than other products."

"We have the premium support and are very satisfied. They are always answer our questions very quickly. For the moment, we are very satisfied, but I think it's because we are paying for the premium support."

"The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."

"It's costlier that some other products, and there is nothing that fits every solution."

"The licensing cost is per user."

"We are using a self-built solution. It would cost too much to get that up to the standard of what we need. In the long-term, it is cheaper to buy a solution that has what we need. Though, we are still running the previous solution, as we are still in the implementation phase."

"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."

"In addition to licensing fees, we may incur costs for professional services if product issues or implementation errors arise beyond our control."

"It was okay for us. It was not too much for us. It was nearly the same as other products. It was not expensive."

Reviews from Real Users

ForgeRock stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its robust identity and access tools and its being easy to manage and scale with one central dashboard.

PeerSpot users note the effectiveness of these features. A technology solutions leader at an outsourcing company writes, “We need it for multiple clients, multiple implementations. Not all of them are necessarily a multi-tenant solution. We need a very versatile solution that can do a lot of work, but from a single instance that we can centralize authentications and we don't duplicate the efforts and that's where ForgeRock seems to do better.”

Mohamed B., a cyber security consultant at a tech company, writes, "Their access management solution, OpenAM, is most valuable because it meets the needs of a lot of users. ForgeRock secured our system so that it is accessed only by authorized people, and it implemented the SSO."
