The most valuable feature is the speed of implementation, because now with the Virtual Appliance it is much faster, and in the past to implement this kind of solution would take many weeks, but now it takes one day or minutes and we have the deployment ready.

Additionally, the CA Identity Suite was able to replace our old mainframe based identity suite with a newer generation, more rapid development tool, which helped us to achieve our roadmap and reach the destination which we were looking for.

My favorite feature of the suite is, of course, the provisioning aspect of it, as it allows you to provision accounts within minutes instead of waiting weeks, which is a huge benefit for business at the end of the day so that you can get your workers up and running in a timely fashion.

The connectors for the identity and governance part could use some improvement, by way of adding more areas. They need more development to cover more target applications.

The documentation can be improved because sometimes we have some technical issues that were not documented and we have to rely on support to solve them. Then there are issues around getting the architecture, but it's challenging to get the architecture.

I would like synchronization when a mapping is added between end points. Currently, the synchronization is not complete. It would be great if this synchronization happened immediately.

I think CA is too heavy and can't do some things out-of-the-box, so I can't tell you that I love Identity Suite, because right now I don't.
