Offers strong support and consistent updates improve security features

It is a heavyweight application. The product deployment and installation takes time, and the environment details are complex. ForgeRock is very quick to deploy on Tomcat, but Oracle Access Manager must be deployed on WebLogic, a heavyweight server. You cannot deploy Oracle Access Manager on Tomcat. If an organization has sufficient budget to spend on servers, then it is useful. For organizations that do not want to spend too much money on Oracle Access Manager, maintenance and upgrades take time, whereas with ForgeRock, that is the opposite as fewer resources are required. Being a heavyweight application, it will take more time for deployment and installation compared to ForgeRock or Okta. Okta is cloud-based, so it does not take much time. ForgeRock on-premise only needs deployment on a Tomcat server, making it less complex as it is a lightweight application.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product allows customization via custom code."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

"From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves."

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

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

"The scalability of the solution is good. We haven't felt we've been restricted from expanding as necessary and we haven't heard of any issues from our clients."

"Once it is set up, it is easy to use and it integrates with most of the products on the market."

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."

More Oracle Access Manager pros

"It's convenient for users to log in through Ping using the Kerberos adapter because it doesn't require them to authenticate again."

"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."

"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."

"Setting up the infrastructure with Ping Identity Platform is very easy compared to other IAM products."

"This is a user-friendly solution."

"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."

"The mobile biometric authentication option improved user experience. It's always about security because, with two-factor authentication, it's always a separate device verifying the actual user logging in."

More Ping Identity Platform pros

Cons

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

"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."

"In the next release, they should focus more on use cases related to customer access management, customer identity, and access management."

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

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

"Installation and deployment take time, but implementation is straightforward and easy, and they have very good support."

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

"I suggest Oracle make the integration process for non-Oracle applications as straightforward and easy as it is for Oracle applications."

More Oracle Access Manager cons

"Sometimes, there are issues with its stability."

"PingFederate's UI could be streamlined. They have recently made several improvements, but it's still too complex. It's a common complaint. The configuration should be simplified because the learning curve is too steep."

"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."

"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."

"The timing of the token validity, if it could be extended, would be great. I'm not sure if there is even an option to configure these types of settings."

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

"The management console needs to be improved. PingID should revise it."

"One significant challenge was ensuring smooth user migration during system upgrades in Ping."

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."

"Can be expensive as a solution."

"The product is a little expensive."

"The tool is affordable."

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

"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."

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

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

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

"PingID's pricing is pretty competitive."

"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."

"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."

"Ping Identity Platform is not an expensive solution."
