Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Clear evaluation and life cycle management; service center could be more user friendly
Our primary use case is for publishing and our customer has somewhere between 3,000-4,000 users. We're partners with IBM and I work as a security consultant.  This solution has a very good dashboard and the documentation is also very good. Life cycle management and governance are also good…
Amimesh Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers reliability through features associated with RBAC
Upgrading and making changes to the product is very difficult. It is difficult when you are upgrading the product because sometimes you cannot directly upgrade from one version to another version. You have to go to the lower version and then upgrade to the higher version, which is the biggest drawback of Oracle products. There are no additional features in the tool currently, and it has been the same for the last ten years. I want to see AI features in the tool so it becomes easy for implementers. There should be a change in the installation and deployment part, which is very heavy, due to which the team requires a lot of time, like two to three weeks. It should be easy to implement the tool in two or three days.

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 of Omada is its API connectivity, which allows seamless integration with various services like SAP, GRC, and Microsoft licenses."
"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"The benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation."
"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."
"It has a very user-friendly interface compared to what we are used to, and it is highly configurable. In the old solution, when we needed to do something, we had to have a programmer sitting next to us, whereas, in Omada Identity, everything is configurable."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"What I like most is that we can always find a solution, and we can also find the cause when something goes wrong. I like that the most because everything is in one way or another traceable. That is what I like most. I like its reliability."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"Lifecycle management, governance and documentation."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"It helps provision the required accesses through policies, approvals, and whatever would be the business requirement."
"The features I find most effective in Oracle Identity Governance include size and scale management, which is good for large organizations."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"OIM in my organization has improved its use and dependability, allowing us to pass audit each time."
"It has a very good response time."
"The most valuable features in Oracle Identity Governance are identity and access management."
"The most valuable feature is the flexible automation functionality which has optimized our user access privilege management. This has allowed us to create and delete user accounts more accurately and efficiently. This feature has enabled us to save time and resources needed to perform mundane manual tasks."
"This solution has improved the organization in several ways, including saving many help-desk password-reset calls, IT staff productivity, and quicker user on-boarding."
 

Cons

"The account management integration isn't bad, but it isn't plug-and-play like Microsoft Azure. You need some deep development knowledge to set up the connectors."
"Omada could communicate better with us about the product roadmap. We haven't gotten any updates about it. The user interface is often a bit difficult to understand. It isn't optimized for small screens, so it doesn't display all of the information clearly, so users need to scroll a lot."
"The user interface could be improved. The interface between Omada and the user is mainly text-based."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"I would like to see them expand the functionality of the tool to continue to be competitive with the monsters out there. For example, they could add functionality on the authentication side, functionality that Octa and SailPoint have. But they should do that while maintaining the same simplicity that makes Omada a product of choice today."
"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"The solution is a bit pricey for some regions."
"Self service center is not always easy to understand."
"The cost of this product needs to be reduced."
"It's a complex solution, so it will take time in terms of deployment."
"Oracle Identity Governance can capture a lot of loads, it's stable. However, we once had a problem two years ago, but it is now resolved. There are some issues still present, but they're operational. They don't impact the customers. There are some improvements that can be done."
"The user-friendliness of Oracle Identity Governance can be improved compared to other products."
"This product currently uses a complex and old implementation. They need a single, user-friendly console for easy configuration. The Active Directory Services (ADS) integration needs improvement. They should offer non-Java coding options and simplify mapping."
"I would like to see more segregation managed through Oracle Identity Manager."
"The development and the administration side could be a lot more intuitive and easier to use than it currently is, in terms of functionality and what it tries to achieve as a Single Sign-On entity for an enterprise environment."
"I would like to see automation in the solution. We need also integration with the Identity Manager. The solution needs to improve in the application integrations part. It also needs to focus on application deployment as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."
"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"Omada is expensive."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
"It is not cheap. It is expensive, but compared to what we did almost three years ago, it is value for money. It is worth it."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"The price of the implementation of Oracle Identity Governance is more of a concern than the cost of the solution. The effort that you have to do to put the solution in place is higher than the license cost."
"Price-wise, the tool is a little bit costly."
"Oracle Identity Governance is an expensive solution."
"The licensing cost for Oracle Identity Governance is very high, so I'd rate it two out of five."
"The licensing is expensive."
"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."
"I do not know specific pricing but the product is expensive when compared to other OIM products."
"The price is based on the number of users per year."
