Featured Reviews

Neha Chhangani - PeerSpot reviewer
Business Analyst at a startup based organization
Centralized identity governance has automated lifecycle management and simplifies compliance
One Identity Manager could be improved by making the initial setup and configuration simpler, especially for complex workflows and integrations. The user interface and reporting dashboards could also be more modern and intuitive with better out-of-the-box analytics. Additionally, clearer documentation and faster implementation guidance would help organizations get value more quickly. One specific challenge my team encountered was the complexity during initial configuration, especially when setting up custom workflows and role models which required more time and expertise. We also felt that out-of-the-box reports and dashboards are limited, and more customizable real-time analytics would be helpful. Better documentation and guided setup wizards would make adoption easier, particularly for teams new to identity governance tools. One improvement I think One Identity Manager needs is the enhanced self-service experience. The end-user self-service portal could be more intuitive with clearer guidance for access requests and password resets. Additionally, while integrations are solid, deeper cloud-native connectors and API-driven automation would help in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. A more responsive mobile interface or dedicated app for approvals and tasks would help managers who are often on the go. One more improvement is the built-in predictive insights or trend dashboards around access patterns and risk could improve proactive governance. More descriptive error messages and in-tool troubleshooting tips during setup configuration would reduce dependency on external documentation or support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One Identity Manager impacts my organization positively."
"One Identity's user interface is excellent. It has a timeline view that shows when a user received access and when access was removed. This provides a solid overview of all the users' activities since they were onboarded."
"You can scale it quite big, which is good. It has good sizing."
"There has been a strong return on investment after implementing One Identity Manager, especially through automation, reduced operational efforts, and improved security."
"From what I heard, everyone said that before One Identity Manager, they had many workflows and loopholes, and after starting to use it, those issues were addressed, creating a very positive experience for the customer."
"I would definitely recommend One Identity Manager."
"Automating user provisioning and de-provisioning access through approval workflows has significantly reduced our manual efforts for identity administration, and in our experience, it has been nearly about 40 to 60% faster compared to the manual process."
"I greatly appreciate the initial approach provided by One Identity Manager."
"It’s an excellent solution, with great security."
"Easy to enter and track licensing, a history of successful and failed attempts, easy for the users, and low cost."
"Customer Service: Very good. Technical Support: Excellent."
 

Cons

"Job servers can become a single point of failure."
"End-user UI customization is difficult and requires some knowledge of proprietary Angular technology."
"The Metamodel is not developer-friendly, and the web designer customization could be simplified."
"One Identity Manager SAS Safeguard Authentication has too many updates and change of revisions. Very soon the product that I have installed is not supported, meaning it's still functional and we can work with it, but if I have an incident, it's not responded to."
"Make logging and debugging easier to find, I never quite know which log to turn on for which use case (just for my tools, for the job service user, etc)."
"The thing that I dislike about Identity Manager by One Identity is the documentation, in my opinion, because we do not find all the documentation and all the questions we need to know."
"The dashboard needs a lot of improvement, and reports need to be updated and improved to provide more insights about our data."
"One Identity Manager's user interface can be confusing due to its multiple UIs."
"They could include a deployment mechanism."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing for One Identity Manager is per user, per carbon life, specifically, it's per people, and not a per-identity licensing model. For example, if I have two hundred people, or if I have someone with several identities, I'm only paying for it once. I don't remember the exact cost of One Identity Manager because I wasn't the one who paid for the license."
"It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."
"It was okay for us. It was not too much for us. It was nearly the same as other products. It was not expensive."
"Pricing depends on licensing models, such as per-user licensing and feature-based pricing. Additional models like governance, provisioning, and reporting increase costs."
"There are old processes that are really great for some people and look like pieces of artwork. However, the maintenance of them is really expensive."
"I believe the pricing is fair."
"We pay yearly and per active user. One of the reasons that we chose One Identity Manager is because of the pricing. It is reasonable and affordable compared to other products which we considered before choosing this solution for the company."
"It's costlier that some other products, and there is nothing that fits every solution."
