Shows group analytics with good UI but needs improvement in GPO
The solution helps with group analytics.  Imanami GroupID's UI is good.  The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO.  I have been using the solution for two years.  I rate the tool's stability an eight out of ten.  I rate Imanami GroupID's scalability an eight out of…

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

"Imanami GroupID's UI is good."
"I have found the overall features to be useful."
"For each job code, we go through and determine the access they're supposed to have to the system, and based on that job code, we use the query tool so that anybody who is in this job code gets these groups added to them, or conversely, if they change job codes, it removes the ones that they shouldn't have and adds the one they should, which runs every night so that the next day everybody has the job codes they're supposed to have."
"I have a very positive opinion of One Identity Manager; in all honesty, it's the best application that I've used."
"This is almost a complete solution for us."
"It brings simplicity into complex matters."
"After implementing One Identity Manager, onboarding and provisioning time is reduced by around fifty percent, and manual access-related errors decrease significantly due to automation and approval workflows."
"The tool is like a big Lego in which you can use the parts that make sense for your organization."
"This solution helped us to increase employee productivity when it comes to provisioning users or systems, and in some cases, it has gone down from days to hours or minutes."
"I am a strong advocate for One Identity Manager because it provides a single platform for enterprise-level administration and governance of users, data, and privileged accounts."
"One Identity enables us to provide users with permissions for only the roles that they need. We can use segmentation to ensure that users don't have roles that can cause trouble in the business."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see a better user interface. It works, but it is clunky. There should be better import and export of LDAP queries and better management tools."
"The product's implementation is complex. It should also work on GPO."
"The mobile application needs to be improved and there should be chatbox features to allow users to easily reach out for assistance."
"One Identity Manager needs to come up with many more out-of-the-box connectors, similar to Workday and ServiceNow."
"The support for DevOps could be improved with quick delivery cycles and multiple delivery streams."
"End-user UI customization is difficult and requires some knowledge of proprietary Angular technology."
"One Identity Manager is a strong IGA solution; however, there are a few areas for improvement. The user interface is complex and less intuitive, which requires new users time to navigate."
"One Identity Manager's documentation is something they can improve, and I believe much of this is related to translation since it is a German company."
"I would like to see a lot more integration with our platforms, more on the connector side."
"Quest Software should provide notes and documents to customers before they buy the product and license."
"From a user experience perspective, One Identity Manager is good; the only difficulty I find sometimes is because it's a Windows application, it's very difficult to view all data since it's a limited Windows space."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is on a yearly basis, and it has the product license fee and the support for it. So, there is the licensing fee, and there is the annual maintenance that includes the support. I don't remember exactly, but we're probably paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 to $30,000 for it per year. We've got a pretty large implementation of it, and for the amount that we do, it is a pretty good deal. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"There is a one-time licensing cost, and there is also a yearly subscription fee."
"In addition to licensing fees, we may incur costs for professional services if product issues or implementation errors arise beyond our control."
"We are using a self-built solution. It would cost too much to get that up to the standard of what we need. In the long-term, it is cheaper to buy a solution that has what we need. Though, we are still running the previous solution, as we are still in the implementation phase."
"Pricing depends on licensing models, such as per-user licensing and feature-based pricing. Additional models like governance, provisioning, and reporting increase costs."
"It's costlier that some other products, and there is nothing that fits every solution."
"It's not cheap, but the pricing is okay. Other applications cost about the same."
"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."
"The solution is flexible, in general. You can define the parts of the solution that you want to use, and it won't affect the price."
