Identity governance has strengthened privileged access controls and supports ongoing compliance
Customization involves making changes to fit customer requirements. Maintenance usually involves sometimes having issues with different connectors, mostly the Active Directory and LDAP connectors. Periodic aggregation of accounts and applications sometimes go through issues with firewalls. Sometimes they do not work, and you need to make sure your connectors are all in sync, especially your LDAP and AD connectors. Sometimes there could be some issues occurring between these two connectors, so there will be maintenance on that side, making sure they are working on a regular basis based on your monitoring plan. Taking backups regularly and periodic backups are essential. Both the support rating and the overall product rating for CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is eight out of ten. Eight means they have complete processes in place to help support, they have resources available, and there is a method to contact them and get response quickly. In that regard, eight is appropriate because they reuse some of their main PAM components which is very good, and compared to other products which I ranked around nine, they should be at eight.

User access management excels but needs enhancements with integration capabilities
I was aware of that because I used to manage these solutions earlier on, but it was purchased by the Procurement team, so I was not involved in any of those.There are certain details I may not be able to disclose currently, but we can speak in general about a number of products and tools that are ongoing. I have not been using access management controls here, so I don't have the latest features or details or hands-on experience in that space. I cannot share all the details about the improvements in security operations since we were exploring some products, but I'm familiar with Saviynt as I was one of their partners for other solutions, and currently, I cannot disclose a lot of performance related to my current roles.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I enjoy the ease of setup and creation of a review. Being a user of the tool or kind of an admin of the tool, the ease of setup of an access review is valuable."
"We had these spreadsheets all over the place, but now we have a library of evidence to consult when needed. Zilla keeps everything in one place. It's not scattered all over anymore."
"It helps users work from anywhere, regardless of their location or country. Users do not need to be in their office geo-location to access applications or resources, which provides flexibility for accessing applications wherever they are."
"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is a very stable product, and I do not see a lot of issues with it most of the time."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."
"The access certification feature is valuable."
"It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes."
"This solution is great for providing control access across your environment."
"SailPoint Identity Security Cloud offers simplicity and a user-friendly interface, along with excellent support from SailPoint's company."
"The customer service is excellent, with quick response times and comprehensive support from the SailPoint team."
"Security and administration for any new/current access."
"A feature of SailPoint IdentityIQ that I like best is that it has good integration with other platforms. My company is using ADP here in Brazil, and SailPoint IdentityIQ works very, very well with it. My company is also using the solution for governance evaluation, segregation, and other access tests. For my company, SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very important solution, especially because it's automated, and there's a huge audit and risk issue here in Brazil."
 

Cons

"CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is lacking in the governance side of identities compared to competitors."
"There is still no automated way to de-provision access as a result of a review, but they are getting there in terms of making it unified. They are getting closer to that."
"The primary issue I have experienced with CyberArk IGA Powered by Zilla is related to support."
"Maybe this is coming with their AI module, but I would like to see a feature that performs baseline analysis of permissions that may not fit into a role, and it attempts to group them into a role. We've run into problems with applications where someone has not created a role but assigned ad hoc permissions to a user. We still need to do some manual work to identify the group that the user belongs to. It would be amazing to have Zilla streamline that."
"Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time."
"Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ could be cheaper."
"Some of the features like multi-aggregation and self healing feature in case of corrupted certificates would be pretty useful which would enable easy debugging in case of issues."
"Yes, I found some scalability issues: Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space Advanced searches with 0 rows."
"Some setups should be done in the interface and in the code, and could be made simpler."
"Complex configuration if you want to have AD forest architecture in place."
"They are expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has been fair because we have been in from the beginning or close to the beginning. I know it is not truly an identity access management system yet, but its price was one of the appealing factors for us to purchase it at the time. It was reasonably priced."
"It is a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."
"Its price is okay. It provides good value for money. It is subscription-based. You can go for a one-year or three-year subscription."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."
"The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."
"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
"It is affordable licensing."
"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."
