Provides strong authentication feature, which requires users to enter a one-time password (OTP)
The main issue I've noticed pertains to setting up the desktop client on virtual machines in Azure, GCP, or AWS, specifically for Entrust Identity Enterprise intended for on-premises use. It works for on-premises, but I'm not sure if it's fully supported in cloud environments. If support were added, it would function perfectly with on-premises configurations. So, it functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP.

Identity governance has automated lifecycle workflows and strengthens access risk control
Omada Identity has a very good and easy automated onboarding and offboarding process which provisions correct system access from day one when employees or contractors join, and it automatically revokes their access and prevents orphan accounts when they leave. It provides role-based transfers which seamlessly upgrade user permissions when individuals change departments or roles, ensuring they only have the privileges necessary for their new positions. For risk mitigation and intelligent analytics, it leverages machine learning to uncover vulnerabilities, recommends appropriate access roles, and flags anomalous user behavior before it becomes a security threat. Omada Identity also extends strict governance controls and life cycle tracking to AI agents, service accounts, and API keys, securing the expanding IT infrastructure. It allows businesses to map their paper-based approval process into automated drag-and-drop digital workflows without relying on complex custom coding and provides a centralized self-service portal for employees to request temporary or permanent access to specific applications with proper approval from one or two level approvers, which includes built-in routing to the correct approvers. The value received from Omada Identity at the start was significant, particularly due to its codeless configuration, allowing us to map our approval process into automated drag-and-drop digital workflows without excessive complexity. For access requests, we established a centralized self-service portal to manage temporary or permanent access requests with appropriate approvals. Omada Identity uses machine learning to uncover vulnerabilities, recommending access roles and flagging anomalous behavior before it becomes a threat, providing confidence through initial POCs leading to a complete deployment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Entrust is an enterprise account, and they have a support system. Their training is also top-notch, and they are willing to share their knowledge with their partners."
"It is a scalable solution. You can add users and credentials without problems."
"This solution is flexible and easy to use for our clients, and we use it with different kinds of applications and integrate it with different processes."
"Entrust Identity Enterprise is a very mature product, it is very reliable and there are many use cases for which you can use the solution."
"I am impressed with Entrust because they are one of the most advanced identity access management companies. Their portfolio of products is well aligned with the CISA zero trust framework. If you compare the features of Entrust products with the CISA pillars of zero trust, you'll see that they're perfectly matched with CISA requirements."
"The integration matrix of the solution is huge compared to others."
"The integration with those systems helps my workflow and saves time considerably because I can manage all the accesses and assignments through Omada Identity at once, eliminating the need to add a license through Azure or a mailbox through Exchange."
"I'm not using Omada, but the interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview of your identities."
"The identity governance and administration features are also really good in Omada."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"Omada Identity has improved our security posture by defining multiple roles and managing access control based on birthright access and custom approval levels, with role mining ensuring the automatic correlation of tasks and permissions according to job titles."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"The support response time and the freedom from strange bugs and strange things happening in the software are valuable."
 

Cons

"It would be better if the on-prem Entrust Identity Enterprise solution could have the same features as the cloud version because the latter is easier to use."
"We are introducing new processes and are migrating to a new version. Once we explore new functionalities, we'll be able to assess what could be improved."
"The product is very costly compared to other alternative solutions."
"It functions well on-premises, but integrating it with cloud services like AWS or Azure could be challenging. There are issues with cloud integrations, such as Azure, AWS, and GCP."
"I would like to improve the tool's implementation and pricing."
"Omada's performance could be better because we had some latency issues. Still, it's difficult to say how much of that is due to Omada versus the resources used by our other vendors in our on-prem environment. Considering the resources we have invested into making it run well, it's slightly slower than we would expect."
"Right now, I don't feel that I have any influence on the features that they are delivering to us."
"When you do a recalculation of an identity, it's hard to understand what was incorrect before you started the recalculation, and which values are actually updated... all you see are all the new fields that are provisioned, instead of seeing only the fields that are changed."
"Improved traceability would be helpful for administrators. For example, let's say a user's permission is being revoked. We can only see the system that has carried out a particular action but not what triggered it. If an event definition or something has changed in the criteria for the permission being removed or something like that, we don't have immediate access to that information. It takes a little detective work."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"Omada could communicate better with us about the product roadmap. We haven't gotten any updates about it. The user interface is often a bit difficult to understand. It isn't optimized for small screens, so it doesn't display all of the information clearly, so users need to scroll a lot."
"They need to improve the cost for small companies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's worth the money."
"The subscription could be yearly or monthly, depending upon your choice."
"I would rate the product's pricing a five out of ten."
"The pricing for Omada Identity is fair."
"Omada isn't cheap or expensive. The licensing model is flexible. I've only had limited interactions with the Omada sales team, but they were positive. They don't sell the customers more licenses than they need. It's important to accurately forecast future usage. For example, we have many licenses that we don't use because we don't have the identities yet. We pay extra, which isn't good."
"From an on-prem point of view, the cost is quite transparent and reasonable. The direct cost is primarily for licenses and maintenance on licenses."
"There were a lot of administrator, partner, and supplier accounts for people who were no longer working for us but still in the system. So, we reduced the number of users no longer with the company, which saved us some money on licensing."
"It is fairly priced for an on-premise environment, but for the cloud environment, I am not that happy with the pricing."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"Omada is expensive."
