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.
Praveen Jalumuru - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced automation and AI-driven integration offer significant time savings
The most valuable features include its ability to integrate with AI and machine learning, the automation of reports, and the built-in connectors that enable easy connection with both legacy and cloud-based applications. Its code-less drag-and-drop functionality allows for easier adjustments, and it provides strong support with reduced SLAs compared to SailPoint IQ.
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

"The customer success and support teams have been crucial."
"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 benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation."
"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 most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors."
"When we started with identity and access management, we cleaned up and skipped 500 accounts. Therefore, there are a lot of people who are still in our system. Using this tool, we have cleaned up a lot of accounts for ourselves as well as our partners and suppliers. So, we can manage everything now."
"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"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."
"This solution has made our team more effective. We need less manual approvals when someone new joins our company. There is less paperwork and fewer support tickets raised for access."
"The most valuable feature for our customers and for us is the identity data warehouse."
"The governance features, such as certification and provisioning, are the most beneficial for enhancing security."
"The solution is one of the main security products you need to control access and have visibility into what's happening in your organization. It helps with managing access to applications, ensuring governance, and obtaining certifications."
"The solution can be customized to adapt the workflow to our industry, offering considerable flexibility."
"It is a scalable product."
"The basic concept is most valuable. I like how they have designed the solution. They create an Identity Cube, and then they do all the processes and configuration around the Identity Cube."
"The tool's GUI is user-friendly."
"The product is flexible to use."
"It is very easy to use. It addresses most of the trends in identity governance and risk management."
"The feature that we use the most is the global, third-party user management."
"Considering the initial cost and the basic features, this is a good solution that provides integration with both on-premise and cloud applications."
"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."
"It's a highly functional system and a very well rounded solution. The onboarding of applications is solid. Their user access reviews are very good. Their role-based model and their identity life cycle stuff are solid. It's a very well rounded, strong product."
"The dedicated Freshdesk platform is a user community and a step in the right direction for offering learning resources."
"This product works well out of the box and if you don’t want to do a lot of configuration then this is the best tool."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"One thing that we are not so happy about is the user interface. It is a bit dated. I know that they are working on that, but the user interface is quite dated. Currently, it is a little bit difficult to customize the user interface to the need of the business, which is a little bit disappointing. It needs it to be a little bit easier to operate, and it should have a better user interface."
"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."
"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."
"The Omada support response time has room for improvement."
"If I had to name one thing, it would be the user interface (UI)."
"Omada could make it a bit more convenient to send emails based on events automatically. Having that functionality is critical for us to maintain transparency."
"Certifications could include additional access levels or practices."
"We faced some issues while integrating the solution with a third-party tool."
"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple."
"The UI of the solution could be more customizable so we could change the workflows to suit our needs."
"The pricing could be improved."
"There are more functionalities in the Cloud that could be explored."
"The workflow and user interface of SailPoint are not as smooth as ServiceNow's. I find raising a ticket to be too complex, which could be improved for better user-friendliness."
"The solution's technical support team's response time and skills need improvement since it is an area where there are shortcomings."
"UI and support could be improved. The frequent updates and version changes can be disruptive for large organizations. Not every month, a large organization can go with the changes. Saviynt needs to consider this carefully."
"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."
"According to feedback I've received, some users prefer SailPoint over Saviynt in real complex environments. SailPoint has its provisioning platform. Complex integrations may pose challenges in scenarios like a large bank with thousands of users, making SailPoint a preferred choice for some."
"The product's stability is not easy to maintain."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
"The technical support team's response time could be improved."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"Being Dutch, I can only say that it is extremely expensive, but all software products are expensive. If you have 38,000 users, then even one dollar or one euro per person would amount to a significant amount of money. Because of the high number of users, anything gets expensive very fast here."
"The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"Omada is expensive."
"In terms of pricing, SailPoint IdentityIQ is affordable. It's not cheap, and it's not expensive, so the solution is in the middle, price-wise. It also didn't have additional costs, even if my company had different teams that took care of auditing and provisioning and projects that used SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"The solution is not cheap."
"You do pay one price for the license but that price depends on what you choose to include as far as the optional modules go."
"As per my knowledge, it runs on a paid partnership model, but I am not sure about it."
"I found the pricing to be relatively high."
"The pricing is based on the number of users and is reasonable."
"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
