Great features with good certification module but the cost can be prohibitive for some

The only issue I have with the product is that there are modules that need to be bought separately, and that makes the product prohibitive for some of the customers that I've worked with, particularly in the middle-tier range. The solution itself is expensive and then when you add the cost of the modules it becomes too much. They could provide something similar to what Okta offers and I believe this would give the company a lot more traction in the mid-size range of companies. I'd like to see SailPoint support for custom-based connectors.

Supports API integrations with different systems

My company uses multi-factor authentication and we tried using it integrating with FIDO Server. It was done to make sure that the multi-factor authentication feature gets used during the authentication process. AI can be used for better authentication, but right now, our company has not used any such feature. I recommend the product to others. It is easy to install and easy to use. Understanding a feature before you integrate a tool with other tools is important. In my company, there is another team with five to six engineers that takes care of the support part of the tool. The product has helped me to meet my security management requirements as per ISO 7001. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Certification and Provisioning features are most valuable."

"The compliance features are the most valuable features."

"The big one now is that they're adding AI and machine learning to figure out automated approvals and make recommendations to their reviewers. So, if I bring up Doug McPherson and it says he has access to this application, the system will make a review based on peer group analysis. That's one of the biggest new things. The problem used to be that people would get everything loaded on, and they created too much work for themselves. Now, they can use these policies and start to let the machine pick the less risky things."

"The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good."

"The support is very good."

"IdentityIQ deserves a rating of 12 out of ten for stability."

"This solution is easy to configure."

"It is simple and easy to implement."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pros

"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

"Comprehensive ecosystem."

"Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization."

"We use the solution for customer identity management, authenticating customers coming in through a web portal."

"The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features."

"It's very easy to implement everything."

"The keystore feature has been most valuable for us."

"The solution gets the job done, and we don't have to do the main configuration."

More WSO2 Identity Server pros

Cons

"The user interface is not very user-friendly."

"Some setups should be done in the interface and in the code, and could be made simpler."

"It tends to be more expensive, but at the end of the day, it works."

"In the past, we had a lot of problems with SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in providing access and provisioning. There were some gaps in the operation of the solution because they were manual rather than automated, and the users and administrators were given access directly via Active Directory, and it wasn't appropriate for us at the time to use. In terms of integration, we could provide a more automated solution after a minimum number of years, but not in the SailPoint IdentityIQ platform, but there were problems in the registration, for example, with putting information inside ADP, but in general, we were able to solve those problems, and after implementing SailPoint IdentityIQ we had increased evaluations."

"I think that the onboarding framework could be improved."

"The solution, in general, is quite expensive."

"Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting."

"The workflow and user interface of SailPoint are not as smooth as ServiceNow's."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud cons

"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly."

"The solution could improve its development from a user perspective."

"The solution seems to be pretty outdated."

"The high availability architecture has to be improved."

"This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box."

"There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation."

"Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code."

More WSO2 Identity Server cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."

"The pricing is based on the number of users and is reasonable."

"Usually, the cost of deploying about 5,000 licenses or 5,000 users, would be the equivalent to the cost of the license, which would be reaching up to around $90,000."

"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."

"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."

"It's all competitive. Initially, the prices look a bit higher, but once it gets into a competitive situation, they meet the market. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing. It tends to be more expensive, but it works."

"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."

"I rate the solution a seven on a scale where one is cheap and ten is too expensive. In short, the solution falls under the higher side of pricing."

More SailPoint Identity Security Cloud pricing and cost advice

"At this time we are working with the open-source version."

"I rate the product price an eight out of ten. There is a need to pay more for the extra features provided by the solution."

"I have found the solutions license is priced competitively compared to others."

"They should bring in some good pricing models to host the marketplace."

"WSO2 Identity Server is not an expensive solution."

"We have to take their support, but that is a minimal charge if I'm comparing it to other identity managers."
