No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
6.6
SailPoint Identity Security Cloud provides efficient support with responsive service, though some experience delays and language challenges in specific regions.
We do not contact their technical support directly because we have a service agreement already in place with them with some dedicated and some non-dedicated resources.
Sometimes, the support is slow, and they often suggest resorting to expert services.
 

Room For Improvement

Sentiment score
4.6
Omada Identity needs UI improvements, better scalability, integration, documentation, and cost-effective upgrades, with enhanced API and automation.
No sentiment score available
Sentiment score
4.9
SailPoint struggles with high costs, technical issues, and lacks user-friendly features, requiring improvements in integration and automation.
The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience.
SailPoint lacks some features like privileged account management and access management features found in products like Okta.
IdentityIQ should be more widely available on the cloud, especially in regions like the Middle East where residency issues are present.

Featured Reviews

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.

Access to other software is just one click away and suitable for big organizations
Currently, we have limited use of Microsoft AD. We only use it to see if user blocks are available. If they are, we unblock the account and get access accordingly. AD has paid access control features. We can add access control over AD. For example, for documentation, we use an Outline tool. It's open source, and we add our company's knowledge base to it. It's an alternative to Confluence. We don't want everyone to have access to all documentation. If I create documentation for my team, only my team should have access, not support or sales. We can add these scopes or access controls over AD. Once integrated, the person will get the appropriate access control features upon logging in. Role-based access control is a great feature of Active Directory.
RameshBhattacharjee - PeerSpot reviewer
Great features with good certification module but the cost can be prohibitive for some
The only issue I have with the product is that there are modules that need to be bought separately, and that makes the product prohibitive for some of the customers that I've worked with, particularly in the middle-tier range. The solution itself is expensive and then when you add the cost of the modules it becomes too much. They could provide something similar to what Okta offers and I believe this would give the company a lot more traction in the mid-size range of companies. I'd like to see SailPoint support for custom-based connectors.
