Identity and Access Management Manager at NeuGen

Simplifies the task of managing groups and is affordable and easy to implement

I'd like to see it be able to do more than just groups. I'd like it to be able to do some things with email distribution lists as well. It can do that, but there were a few things that were limiting. It was difficult to get it set up, particularly with Azure in the cloud. I'd like that to be a little bit smoother. 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. We've got a ton of groups, and it does take quite a while to do nightly processing. This is something that definitely needs improvement.

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. Based on that job code, we use the query tool and say 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. That runs every night, and the next day, everybody has the job codes they're supposed to have."

"Provisioning in multiple environments."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."

"Has a great certification module with intuitive options."

"Provides good authorization and authentication system functionality."

"The access certification feature is valuable."

"The level of customization for data imports and role modeling, because it helps to integrate faster, support easier and let it reuse the organization role structure."

"It is a scalable product."

"It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes."

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."

"The connector for EPIC, ServiceNow, and Duo."

"The connectors are far too manual. This needs to be automated a bit."

"SailPoint IdentityIQ could be cheaper."

"One needs to understand that SailPoint is into full-fledged IAM practice with a long-term vision, and customers will get a quick ROI with best practices implementation."

"The cost can be prohibitive for middle-tier companies."

"I would rate the vendor support around five out of ten. Sometimes, the support is slow, and they often suggest resorting to expert services."

"Some setups should be done in the interface and in the code, and could be made simpler."

"In general, I have handled Okta and OpenText and noted that those companies have a longer history in the market, which gives them an advantage over SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and Saviynt in aspects like account provisioning and life cycle management."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"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."

"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."

"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."

"Usually, the cost of deploying about 5,000 licenses or 5,000 users, would be the equivalent to the cost of the license, which would be reaching up to around $90,000."

"SailPoint is higher in price as compared to Saviynt. The initial cost of SailPoint is very high. There are additional costs to the standard licensing fees."

"It is a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."

"The solution is not cheap."

"As per my knowledge, it runs on a paid partnership model, but I am not sure about it."
