JosephChandrasekaram - PeerSpot reviewer
Single interface and workflows simplify AD and Azure AD management efficiency and security
The most valuable features include * auditing * dynamic grouping * creating dynamic groups based on AD attributes. Also, as part of the cloud identity, meaning expanding identity to the cloud, it gives me a single workflow to expand on-prem. I can create a user in the cloud and give them access to resources through a single workflow. And for regulatory, auditing, and security requirements, it's critical that the solution enables Zero Trust security with hybrid AD fine delegation and role-based access control.
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.
