The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview

The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.

Senior Architect at Cognizant

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

"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."

"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."

"The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done."

"Technically, the product does everything one would expect from an identity and access management platform. The product offers robust handling of Active Directory resources."

"You can make resources. You can import them from Azure or Active Directory and put them in an application. For example, if there is an application that uses a lot of Active Directory groups, you can make the groups available for people. If they need to access that application, you can tell them the resource groups you have for that application. People can do everything by themselves. They do not need anybody else. They can just go to the Omada portal, and they can do it all by themselves. That is terrific."

"It scales in terms of numbers and types of identities. It can govern the on-premise applications as well as the cloud applications. So, it can manage hybrid environments with all types of identities and various load amounts."

"The support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."

"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."

More Omada Identity pros

"It helps provision the required accesses through policies, approvals, and whatever would be the business requirement."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"The most valuable feature is the set of out-of-the-box connectors."

"OIM in my organization has improved its use and dependability, allowing us to pass audit each time."

"The features I find most effective in Oracle Identity Governance include size and scale management, which is good for large organizations."

"Identifying connector framework for unifying provisioning capabilities from OIM."

More Oracle Identity Governance pros

"Roles, connectors for provisioning and re-accreditation or reviews help greatly to govern user access."

"The data collection is excellent and easy to do. It does not require a lot of configuration nor does it require rules to be written like other competitors do."

"RSA Identity Governance and lifecycles are good for the access certification and auditing sections."

"The most valuable feature is the security, in particular, the One Time Password support."

"With the tool in place, you need to hire fewer people to provide access, and you have control over your processes."

Cons

"Functionality and usability could be improved."

"Its flexibility is both a good thing and a bad thing. Because it is very flexible, it also becomes too complex. This is common for most of the products we evaluated. Its scalability should be better. It had a few scalability issues."

"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."

"The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up."

"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."

"I would like to see them expand the functionality of the tool to continue to be competitive with the monsters out there. For example, they could add functionality on the authentication side, functionality that Octa and SailPoint have. But they should do that while maintaining the same simplicity that makes Omada a product of choice today."

"The Omada Identity SaaS version doesn't provide all the features Omada Identity on-premise provides."

"Omada Identity has two main issues that need to be solved or improved the most. One is its setup or installation process because it's complex and cumbersome. I'm talking about the process for on-premises deployment because I've never tried the cloud version of Omada Identity. Setting up the cloud version should be much easier. The second area for improvement in Omada Identity is that it's piggybacking on Microsoft's complex way of having all kinds of add-ons, extensions, or setups, whether small or large, such as the new SQL Server, and it's cumbersome to make sure that everything works. Omada Identity is a complex solution and could still be improved."

More Omada Identity cons

"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."

"The user interface experience needs to be improved."

"Identity Governance is a difficult tool to work with. You have to input many models to understand what is happening with the logins. The user interface is not so good. And a lot of the features we use aren't available out of the box."

"Our issues with the solution have to do with the integration with different applications. It's not easy to connect ICAO to this kind of product. It would be better to work on the extensions of the adapters for this kind of identity management solution in order to not put in the code in the product."

"Oracle Identity Governance is complex and heavy from an implementation perspective."

"I would like to see more segregation managed through Oracle Identity Manager."

"The platform could be enhanced with additional features."

"They need to improve their backup strategy."

More Oracle Identity Governance cons

"Technical support in Pakistan can be improved."

"The user interface and workflow need improvement, and more connectors would help."

"If you use the appliance version then it won't handle a huge database volume."

"There are scalability issues. This product does not scale very well. It is not a good product for load balancing / active–active architecture."

"This product is missing a lot of features which other competitors are providing. One of the key features that are missing right now is risk scoring. Additionally, there is not much scope for customization - everything is hard-coded and predefined, so it does not allow the developers to make many modifications."

"RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle could improve out-of-the-box customization."

"Every connector that you have in the product needs to be custom-built, so there are not a lot of standard connectors available in the product, because of which there are a lot of hidden consultancy costs."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Omada is expensive."

"It is not cheap. None of these solutions are cheap, but we have good pricing at least for now from a licensing perspective."

"From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."

"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."

"It is licensed per managed user per year."

"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."

"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."

"While Omada Identity carries a premium price tag, it proves to be cost-effective."

More Omada Identity pricing and cost advice

"The licensing cost for Oracle Identity Governance is very high, so I'd rate it two out of five."

"Price-wise, the tool is a little bit costly."

"Oracle Identity Governance is an expensive solution."

"The price is based on the number of users per year."

"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."

"Oracle licenses are expensive. I suggest making pricing and licensing decisions that align with architectural requirements and the project's budget."

"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."

"The licensing is expensive."

More Oracle Identity Governance pricing and cost advice

"We are using the cloud platform, but we don't find it compatible to be served as a multi-tenant platform. This is a large drawback. It becomes expensive because it is then an all-dedicated solution. You have to have a separate tenant for each client, which increases the cost. The overall unit pricing can be less expensive than how it is right now."

"I rate the product's price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"Pricing varies based on user count/number of modules you need."

Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) is a very versatile and robust enterprise identity management solution that offers functional and business performance competence by supplying centralized administration and total automation of identity and client provisioning events throughout the organization and user applications. Oracle Identity Governance monitors the complete identity and role process to satisfy rapidly changing business and complex compliance regulations and quickly delivers critical reporting and compliance capabilities.

Oracle Identity Governance is designed to easily identify which users have approved access to specific applications and other resources. It does this by using processes such as segregation of duties (SOD), role-based access control (RBAC), certifications, and access requests.

Oracle Identity Governance Features

Self-service wizard: Oracle Identity Governance has worked to make the onboarding of applications significantly easier. It no longer takes numerous steps and technical expertise. The self-service wizard makes the process simple and user-friendly.
Self-service APIs: This gives Oracle Identity Governance users an improved user experience (UX). The REST APIs for user self-service can be used for both web and mobile users. Oracle Identity Governance users are easily able to view user accounts and roles, in addition to being able to complete self-service tasks such as forgotten passwords, registration, and more.
Certification: Oracle Identity Governance offers many certification options, such as a custom access reviewer, group reviewing support, and designate certifications by completed percentage. OIG can also focus on specific role access and anomalies for access beyond a user-defined role (UDF).
Integration connectors: Oracle Identity Governance has many integration connector options for both cloud and on-premises deployments. Popular categories include Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) and traditional and hybrid systems such as Fusion Applications (FA). OIG also integrates well with connectors to Database Application Tables (DBAT), scripting tools, and web services. OIG offers several integration connectors with many of today’s top SaaS applications, such as Dropbox, Google Apps, Office 365, ServiceNow, and WebEx.

Reviews from Real Users

“The one thing that stands out was the automatic sign-out when an employee goes on vacation. Identity Governance can monitor when an employee goes on vacation and returns. We use this feature to automatically disable all the employee's accounts when they go on vacation, and they're automatically enabled when they come back. We can also automatically delete the employee's accounts when they're dismissed. Oracle has a model that gives you precise reports. It's called Crystal, and it's similar to JasperReports, so we can derive reports from this database. “ - Fabio L., Partner at a tech services company.

“We are using Oracle Identity Manager for the management of the identity cycle. We have a human resources system as a source, and we have some custom-made applications as a destination of the changes in the identities. - A PeerSpot user who is a Project Manager at a government “
