Has the ability to give people access, but it should include more analytics capabilities
Omada Identity is quite good at providing a clear roadmap for getting additional features deployed. We've always been able to have good discussions with Omada's product managers about the features we would like to have. It's a good environment for discussion, and I've heard from others that Omada is good at listening to customers and getting features into production within a year or so. Omada partially helped us to deploy IGA. However, the company I was working for needed to take more charge and do things a bit differently. It was not possible for Omada to do that for us. Omada did help, and it was not Omada's fault that it took longer. It's too early to say if the solution's identity analytics has affected the manual overhead involved with our identity management. It should have had a positive effect because it should be easier to request more things automatically. Since that's not in production yet, we couldn't measure the effect, but it looked promising. Our Omada solution is set up to remove an employee's access as soon as that employee leaves our organization. This setup has positively affected our organization's security because we have less overall access. Omada Identity was deployed as a SaaS solution in our organization. I think Omada Identity is flexible enough to be used by both smaller and bigger companies. Based on what I've seen, Omada's out-of-the-box connectors are more than sufficient. I advise users to assess their data quality and make a clear cleanup plan before using the solution because Omada is not well-suited as a cleanup tool. Overall, I rate Omada Identity a seven out of ten.

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…

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

"We don't have to go in and do a lot of the work that we did before. It may have saved us somewhere in the range of 10 to 30 percent of the time we spent on provisioning access."
"The best feature in Omada Identity is that it enables us to implement standardized employee life cycle processes so that we don't have to create them ourselves. We can then use the standard workflows. The breadth and scope of the solution’s IGA features also fulfill our requirements."
"The teams we work with at Omada provide great insights and support. Overall, it has been a pleasure working with them. That's the part we value the most."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"The administrative features and SoD are valuable."
"User-friendly solution."
"When we started with identity and access management, we cleaned up and skipped 500 accounts. Therefore, there are a lot of people who are still in our system. Using this tool, we have cleaned up a lot of accounts for ourselves as well as our partners and suppliers. So, we can manage everything now."
"Lifecycle management, governance and documentation."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Identity Governance is user lifecycle management. Certification is also a valuable feature of the solution. Oracle Identity Governance allows you to assign who has access to what, which is its basic feature."
"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."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"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."
"Password management is a valuable feature."
"OIM in my organization has improved its use and dependability, allowing us to pass audit each time."
"What I like most about Oracle Identity Governance is that it is a very flexible tool. It allows you to do any customization on Java as it is built on Java and you can write any customization code using Java. I also like that Oracle Identity Governance is pretty much stable. In my company, there are a lot of users, so my company prefers this solution."
"Good features are the RBAC and UI customization."
 

Cons

"It is not possible to customize reports on Omada Identity."
"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."
"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"I am not working with the product, but they have this BI tool for role-based mining, and I think that should be included in the core product rather than an add-on."
"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."
"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."
"The solution is a bit pricey for some regions."
"Self service center is not always easy to understand."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Identity Governance is that it isn't refreshed or updated as much. The only area that changed on it in the last five years was the GUI. The solution still has the same installation, troubleshooting, and configuration. Oracle Identity Governance is still very complicated when compared to other solutions. It seems that Oracle doesn't focus too much on Oracle Identity Governance in terms of making some improvements to it."
"Simplify & add more functionality to Identity Cloud Service (IDCS)."
"You need full visibility because the suite of features are complex and you have to be clear on what you want to implement."
"The user-friendliness of Oracle Identity Governance can be improved compared to other products."
"The solution should be easy to implement with components combined in one file and built-in features to integrate target applications without having to install additional connectors."
"One of the areas that need some improvement with Oracle specifically is the ease of implementation."
"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."
"The cost of this product needs to be reduced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
"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."
"The pricing is okay."
"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."
"Being Dutch, I can only say that it is extremely expensive, but all software products are expensive. If you have 38,000 users, then even one dollar or one euro per person would amount to a significant amount of money. Because of the high number of users, anything gets expensive very fast here."
"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."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"I would rate the price eight out of 10, with 10 as the best value for money."
"Oracle Identity Governance is an expensive solution."
"Oracle Identity Governance is expensive."
"The licensing cost for Oracle Identity Governance is very high, so I'd rate it two out of five."
"I can't say much about the pricing for Oracle Identity Governance because it's different from one geography to another. In India, the license price costs less than in other geographies."
"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."
"The licensing is expensive."
"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."
