Enhanced security and simplicity in deployment for a holistic protection

When you try to access any application, the system needs to verify it is you. Normally, for traditional security, you just need to enter your username and password. However, with Google Cloud Identity, you can have multilayer security, such as two-step verification or multi-factor authentication…

Offers single sign-on capabilities to users

Suppose you are totally dependent and have requirements where you have a cloud application or several applications for integration with the cloud. In that case, I will suggest the use of Oracle Identity Cloud Service. Oracle Identity Cloud Service has much scope for customization. If you have a high customization level, then I would suggest IAM. The tool's multifactor authentication capabilities are easy to implement. If a client has a banking system, they need a strong authentication service, and only a password is not required; the user has to authenticate via fingerprint, face recognition, or go for or any RSA token. Double authentication is required where the banking department has access to very critical applications, or else they cannot go ahead and give the password. It is very difficult to hack once you have MFA in place. You have to either give the print fingerprint or any RSA token, making it not so easy to hack the system. We suggest MFA to clients who have the most critical application with them. I recommend the tool for every client we have, but it depends on how they want to have it because some customers don't want to go for the cloud application, and they might be thinking about changing the cloud vendors. Suppose a company has some costs in mind, and if they have a large number of employees, like 50,000 or 1,00,000 users, then it will be costlier for them than having an on-prem tool, like IAM. If a customer has 5,000, 10,000, or 20,00 employees, Oracle Identity Cloud Service can be a cheaper tool than the IAM product. I will suggest Oracle Identity Cloud Service only for smaller organizations. The tool does not have any AI capabilities. I would recommend the tool to everyone. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

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 that you can manage users from one central location."

"I used it as an administrator without implementing it myself. As for valuable aspects or benefits, the significant point is that it's a straightforward, single solution that just works."

"The Cloud Identity is well advanced in terms of features, applications, and the components that it is offering."

"The initial setup is easy."

"I think the first thing that is great is that it gives you a lot of features, like login, and then vaulted passwords and secure LDAP. It becomes easier for the end customer to leverage all those features without going to a higher SKU of G Suite."

"The solution is user-friendly."

"It's easy to set up."

"Cloud Identity is scalable enough for our needs. It's serving more than 3,000 users in our organization."

More Google Cloud Identity pros

"The APIs are well documented, which has allowed us to access the IDCS security applications in our custom APIs."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its single sign-on capabilities."

"The most valuable feature is the reduced maintenance burden for the client."

"The most valuable features are the high stability and good performance."

"Onboarding of new employees, consultants, and partners has rapidly increased. We reduced the time to onboard them and the ease of onboarding has been improved. Therefore, we recognize there has been efficiency which has been brought into our organization."

"Identity Cloud has simplified our migrations. Since we're primarily working with native Oracle solutions, we can adopt many features of Oracle Identity Cloud Management."

"Federation and Identity let us create users and send federation tools, giving the authentication and authorization to users. With the on-premise solution, I can do the installation, configuration, and integration of Identity Access Management. This gives us direct access. The integration with the single solution E-business suite is also very valuable."

"The most valuable feature is identity management."

Cons

"If you want to set up some alerts, you don't have much control over the configuration. You have to use their default alerts. And they only provide alerts for certain activities, so you cannot customize those. Monitoring isn't very helpful either."

"There is room for improvement in the configuration of their security policies. It seems quite basic."

"We cannot manage the attributes of SSPR."

"Google Cloud Identify could make the technology used easier to understand as a layman making it more user-friendly."

"The interface could be more user-friendly."

"The solution's storage capacity could be increased."

"In the next release, I would like to see integration with different systems, mainly wireless SIEMS and other analytical systems that we want to introduce."

"Google Cloud Identity the UI could improve."

More Google Cloud Identity cons

"The protocol could be easier to use."

"Self Service features are still limited in IDCS, and there is a need for more customization of the self-service screens."

"The tool doesn't have many out-of-the-box connectors for the target integration."

"The cost of this solution should be reduced."

"The initial setup was a little complex. At that time, the method of integration was a bit complicated due to the scripts that we were required to write for the integration."

"The IDs that are not used for a particular number of days should be disabled automatically."

"Oracle needs to improve the GUI and many other aspects of the cloud console. It isn't as slick as Azure, Google, or IWS cloud. The documentation could be better, too."

"We still see a lot of bugs in any of the versions that Oracle comes out with. So, there are a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."

"We probably spend about $50,000 a year on licensing."

"The solution is not expensive."

"The product is billed on a monthly basis depending on the number of users."

"When I worked on Cloud Identity, they offered a free or enterprise version. You can synchronize and create up to 100 user identities in the free version. After that, you have to purchase a business or enterprise license. In that model, you'll be charged based on the number of users."

"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."

"I rate the product price a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."

"The fees are paid monthly and there are no additional costs other than the licensing fees."

More Google Cloud Identity pricing and cost advice

"The foundation tier that is offered with other cloud services subscriptions is fairly extensive and supports the use of identities, groups, and privileges in those cloud services."

"The tool's implementation costs totally depend on the number of users. The cost depends on how many users are going to use it, so a per-user cost model is needed for the tool."

"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
