Featured Reviews

Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Amimesh Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
VinayM - PeerSpot reviewer
Used for IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management
The technical support team's response time could be improved. After the implementation, Saviynt should provide good support to their customers. While migrating from legacy applications to the cloud, Saviynt has many bugs. The lift and shift are not very seamless. There are a lot of customizations to be done and some development is required. From the migration point of view, the solution is a little buggy.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"The most valuable aspects of Omada Identity for me are the automation capabilities."
"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"Omada's user interface is elegant and easy to work with. I like Omada's ability to automatically generate accounts for new hires and allow them access to all required systems by established policies. Around 80 percent of workers can start working immediately on their first day without requesting further access."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is that it is Microsoft-based and it supports all Microsoft technology."
"The benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation."
"As an administrator, we benefit from a lot of functionality that is available out of the box, but it is also configurable to meet our specific needs."
"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."
"Role-based access control (RBAC) has been crucial for role-based management in my current company. Granular access restrictions based on role-based policies were beneficial."
"The most valuable feature is the user manager certification that approves or removes user access."
"It has a very good response time."
"The most important features that have impacted our environment recently are the Single Sign-On solution, role based provisioning, and the automated provisioning of accounts to target systems."
"Its most valuable feature is its scalability."
"Understanding what a customer is using, what they are looking for, and allowing permissions is a challenge. We use the information we get in order to understand the behavior of the customer beyond the security and to understand what they have been doing in the last month. It's a nice way to understand what is attracting the customer and what they are clicking. That could be implemented by using this kind of application."
"The most valuable feature is the set of out-of-the-box connectors."
"The proactive controls which can be configured to a granular level allowing the organization the flexibility to meet the changing demands of the workforce."
"It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click."
"The dedicated Freshdesk platform is a user community and a step in the right direction for offering learning resources."
"We have found the implementation process to be very easy."
"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"Some of the self-service capabilities are quite powerful."
"Saviynt is used for the greenfield implementation for the whole IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management."
"The most valuable features of Saviynt are database utility and report generation. These two features have a major impact, particularly when you are trying to create a report because, in other systems, you need to use a third-party utility such as a BI tool or any other reporting tool to fetch the data and send out the report to a third party team. In Saviynt, it's a system within a system, so you don't have to use any third-party tool because you can directly do your query and write that code on Saviynt and then send that report to the team."
 

Cons

"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."
"The comprehensiveness of Omada's out-of-the-box connectors for the applications we use could be better. We are getting a new HR system called Cornerstone for which they do not have an out-of-the-box connector, so we have to take the REST connector and play around with it."
"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."
"It is not possible to customize reports on Omada Identity."
"I am not working with the product, but they have this BI tool for role-based mining, and I think that should be included in the core product rather than an add-on."
"The user-friendliness of Oracle Identity Governance can be improved compared to other products."
"One of the areas that need some improvement with Oracle specifically is the ease of implementation."
"The solution needs to improve its web interface in the next release."
"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."
"It would be great if the Oracle Fusion Middleware team worked on making it compatible with other application servers, as it exists in OIM9.x."
"It responds fast but because of the bugs we have already had some major incidents and complete unavailability."
"Pricing for Oracle Identity Governance could be improved. The setup process for the tool could also be faster."
"OIA needs to improve its governance features."
"The solution does not work very well as the number of users increases."
"The solution is hosted on AWS cloud, and there is some dependency that affects our bottom line."
"The product lacks a broad user base which makes it difficult sometimes to find answers to questions about the product."
"It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
"In terms of improvement, it's really just a matter of them getting more mature. It's a relatively new solution and they probably need to streamline a few of the processes as they mature. But there are not too many problems."
"An area for improvement in Saviynt is that there's a limitation on the number of logs you can get from the past twenty-four hours. For example, if the data is huge, the tool can only give you a maximum of one hundred logs. You can't get any further than that. In the next version of Saviynt, however, you can get more logs and you'll see them inside the log rotation. For example, when you're trying to search inside the log, you can select a date range, and then you can search for a particular log. We haven't used that new log rotation feature yet, but it's included in the next release of Saviynt. Another area for improvement in the tool is that it doesn't have a server monitoring feature, so if your server has a high load, it should give you a warning. You're supposed to get an alert similar to what's being done in WebLogic. In WebLogic, we had a separate facility, but in Saviynt, that feature's missing."
"The UI doesn’t enhance the user experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"Omada is too expensive. We are in the automotive industry. The pricing might be high because most of the other customers are in the insurance or banking sectors, but it's steep for an auto supply company."
"It is not cheap. It is expensive, but compared to what we did almost three years ago, it is value for money. It is worth it."
"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."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"Omada Identity offers a reasonable price point, but it will increase as we transition to the cloud."
"The pricing for Omada Identity is fair."
"Oracle licenses are expensive. I suggest making pricing and licensing decisions that align with architectural requirements and the project's budget."
"The price of the implementation of Oracle Identity Governance is more of a concern than the cost of the solution. The effort that you have to do to put the solution in place is higher than the license cost."
"The price is based on the number of users per year."
"Oracle Identity Governance is an expensive solution."
"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."
"The cost of support and upgrading to the next release are both expensive."
"The licensing is expensive."
"Price-wise, the tool is a little bit costly."
"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
