Gluu has a mobile app catering to field workers. Normal workers use the web app, a complete cloud-based solution. They log in on any device and access the system. Gluu filters and displays relevant information based on the user's role in the processes. Users can set it up to view as a viewer, worker, manager, or controller of the area. The front end offers different views but provides an easy dashboard for employees. On the dashboard, users can configure it to show tasks, related work instructions, and connected processes. It's very user-friendly, allowing end-users to understand their tasks and processes without needing in-depth knowledge.

Unified sign-in has simplified access control and has supported end-to-end identity lifecycle
The authentication process is good, but sometimes the responsiveness to requests for enhancement is very slow. I sometimes face issues with platform stability, flexibility in configuration, and limited API availability. I experience downtimes two to three times per year. OneLogin's support team is sometimes very slow to respond. There is a feature limitation with mapping, as OneLogin does not provide one-to-all mapping. For client deployment, we need to create separate mappings for each request, and we cannot use the same mapping for multiple requests. Other areas that have room for improvement are related to API limitations. If a client requires more APIs, such as 5,000 or 6,000, OneLogin charges more. The API rate limits by default or the standard limit should provide more than 5,000. Additionally, OneLogin could provide more flexibility in configuration. These are the main limitations I have identified with OneLogin.

Pros

"Gluu has a mobile app catering to field workers. Normal workers use the web app, a complete cloud-based solution. They log in on any device and access the system."
"Most of the features are related to banking within this particular IT industry. Security and the market are also important features."
"Role-based access control allows me to assign permissions based on responsibilities rather than providing all users with the same level of access."
"Documentation."
"It has made things easier to manage, as all users obtain the correct apps to deliver on their role without much admin intervention after onboarding."
"OneLogin has positively impacted us in many different ways, particularly in terms of cost, as our costs have been reduced compared to what we have been spending."
"OneLogin helps improve security posture, increases user productivity by allowing access to multiple applications with a single password, and has reduced support tickets once users fully learned how to use the tool."
"OneLogin is a highly pragmatic workforce identity engine that eliminates manual authentication debt across fragmented infrastructure securely."
"One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance."
"The most valuable thing about OneLogin is the user interface, it is very simple and very clear for users to understand, and not only technical persons can work with it, non-technical persons can also use it because the user interface is very simple and we did not have to write a lot of lines of code while making any configurations."
 

Cons

"I would like to see features around federation, authentication, authorization, and AI APIs with a ChatGPT interface."
"The tool integrates AI into the process modeling aspect. I believe this addition will significantly enhance usability. Additionally, it might be beneficial to have the capability to import content from other tools into this platform. Our platform follows its business process modeling notation standard, which differs from BPM. It uses a simpler notation, making it easier. The ability to import content from other tools could accommodate users accustomed to different standards."
"What I dislike about OneLogin by One Identity is that there have been some instances where the team experienced server issues while trying to log in."
"Based on my experience, improvements needed for OneLogin include better granular policy controls and more advanced analytics for authentication activity, which would be especially useful for larger enterprise environments."
"OneLogin can be improved by enhancing the reporting and the dashboard customization for more flexibility, and troubleshooting federation or integration issues can sometimes take more effort than expected."
"OneLogin is a strong platform overall, but the reporting and advanced configuration options could be more intuitive; some administrative tasks and policies configuration have a learning curve for new users, and improving the user interface and providing more detailed built-in reporting would make management more efficient."
"Customer support is also good, but it is slow."
"The areas for improvement in OneLogin include better analytics since we do not have very end-to-end visualization of user access logs."
"When I compare OneLogin with other solutions or vendors, I see that OneLogin struggles a bit with big companies that have totally different use cases."
"Overall, OneLogin is solid, but we can implement some improvements with Active Directory connectors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable."
"The tool is cheaper compared to typical German products. I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
