Efficiently manage applications with secure single sign-on and streamlined operations

Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access. Its ability to consolidate applications on a single interface streamlines operations significantly. The product is highly secure and reliable, especially in managing user access across various platforms. Multi-factor authentication enhances security by requiring additional verification steps.

Offers multi-factor authentication and application support side of PingFederate but application only supports specific protocols

A lot of teams work with technical support, but I work with it for user issues only. You might need support with things like application swaps, application names, and application URLs. I didn't know where to find those in Ping Identity, so I contacted technical support for those issues. The support team is very clever and active. They provide end-to-end support once an issue is created. I have worked with most of the support team. I also work with the support team because I work with the operations team. I provide 24/7 support to production and non-production environments. I coordinate with application and network teams to troubleshoot critical tickets and issues related to Ping Identity solutions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products."

"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."

"My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on."

"The product supports customization."

"The solution is able to save time and resources for my clients."

"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."

"The product was built to be scalable."

"In general, the customization that is offered is very good. The company that I am working with currently is using this feature quite extensively."

More Oracle Access Manager pros

"The solution is stable. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches."

"PingFederate is very flexible. We can do many customizations, and it also provides an SDK to tailor it to our specific requirements. There are also numerous plugins available. I've worked with tools like ForgeRock and Okta, but I find PingFederate to be the most customizable."

"People use the solution to secure their applications and authenticate particular processes."

"What I like best about PingID is that it's very user-friendly. PingID is well-built as a developer tool and regularly upgrades and updates via patches. I also like that PingID has clear documents that will help you integrate it with other solutions."

"I find the auto-discovery feature the most valuable. It helps us automate a lot of things using a single password across applications."

"The soundness of the solution is its most valuable feature. For example, if you are in our corporate network, you can log on without any traffic interfering."

"It's pretty stable as a product."

"The product's most valuable features include its cloud-based capabilities for handling cloud applications and providing authentication and authorization through OIDC and SAML. It also supports integrations needed for both local and internal applications, including legacy applications requiring web server access."

More Ping Identity Platform pros

Cons

"The pricing of the solution is in need of improvement. Oracle products are very expensive."

"Sometimes if a session takes too long, you have to log in again."

"The technical support is not very good at all."

"In other products, we can customize on the GUI end, whereas in Oracle, we need to take a backup of the JAR file and then customize it...and during this process, sometimes the WebLogic admin console will go down, which will impact the process."

"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."

"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."

"The user interface is a bit complicated and could be made more lightweight. Simplifying the installation process, perhaps through a VDAR-based installation, would also be beneficial."

"May not integrate easily with non-Oracle products."

More Oracle Access Manager cons

"They could use some bio-certification. It's just more user-friendly and more convenient than entering the one time passes. That would be an improvement."

"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."

"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."

"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."

"It has a long way to go until it is a cloud-based solution."

"Ping Identity Platform must improve its UI since its management console is complicated."

"There is room for improvement in the solution, particularly in security."

"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."

More Ping Identity Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."

"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."

"The tool is affordable."

"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."

"Can be expensive as a solution."

"The product is a little expensive."

"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."

"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."

"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."

"Ping Identity Platform is not an expensive solution."

"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."

"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."

"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."

"Ping offers flexible pricing that's not standardized."
