Featured Reviews

Jai Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
Has strengthened identity controls and improved regulatory compliance across global operations
The initial deployment is complex and requires many users, making it more suitable for larger enterprises. It requires a number of users to get it deployed, particularly for on-premises deployments. This typically involves a lot of initial planning, setup, and configuration. Another important consideration is the cost. It can be quite expensive, making it more suitable for larger enterprises rather than small businesses or startups. The learning curve is also significant due to the numerous features and configurations available. Some features necessitate a detailed analysis and understanding to effectively work with this solution. Additionally, the user interface needs some improvements. It appears outdated compared to the technology we are using in 2025. The UI seems like it's from the early 2000s, making it look considerably behind the times, about 20 to 25 years old.
Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.
