Adheres to the data privacy regulations of each region, easy to learn and offers strong security features
The single sign-on feature of Salesforce Identity enhances our organization's security posture overall. For example, I recently implemented Identity for a fashion brand in Canada. They were using GitGuard before. From my experience, I saw a lot of complexities with GitGuard, especially when developing core integrations. Salesforce Identity was much easier. We replaced it in a month which took them six months to build. It saves time, and it's very secure. You need permissions for any operation, and data is protected when switching between apps. Salesforce Identity supports compliance with data protection and privacy regulations. Salesforce adheres to the data privacy regulations of each region. The data is always encrypted, and their security is very strong. Even with access, you can't break into the system due to their security settings. It definitely obeys regulations regarding data security.

The ability to add-in different applications for proper lifecycle management was critical. The product could be significantly improved if customers were able to ingest data feeds.
This is based off using Account Courier and Password Courier exclusively, and may not be indicative of more recent features included in the platform. The entire provisioning and management process needed to be driven by manually developed SSIS packages for moving data to the correct locations on the database. This would then require either XMLAO requests to workflow endpoints or configuration of a request service. Configuration of the service was already prohibitive due to existing issues. The product could be significantly improved if customers were able to ingest data feeds (using standard JDBC connectors), set provisioning rules, and let the product handle this automatically. However, provisioning logic within the application was composed of "macros" (SQL queries executed by the platform via a service account).
