Single sign-on saves time by seamlessly managing passwords and improving workflow efficiency
What I appreciate best about Imprivata OneSign are the single sign-on and the Confirm ID features. The single sign-on works seamlessly for all the nurses or the end users out there. You just have to log in to the application once and the single sign-on clicks in and works for everyone. Users don't have to manually remember all their passwords. Imprivata OneSign helps by remembering and storing all passwords. The integration capabilities of Imprivata OneSign offer many possibilities, and there are numerous upgrades Imprivata has been implementing. At this point, they are growing rapidly. There are new tools coming out for reporting and generating real-time analysis. Imprivata E-PAM is a new feature that I've been reading about in articles, which is going to help administrator people and enterprise administrator personnel to view real-time records and views for all end customers. Reporting and looking at logs for the users will be seamlessly efficient. I use the reporting tools available in Imprivata OneSign. The admin console itself has a reporting feature, which gives us a list of pre-built templates of reports where you can see how many users have been added, the user policy, the users who have last logged in in specific amounts of days, and the reporting for the EPCS users. There are numerous reporting options available which help with troubleshooting issues. I have seen many benefits from using Imprivata OneSign. It saves substantial time for nurses. As a nurse or doctor, you don't have to spend time remembering passwords or signing into computers. You just need to grab the nearest machine and tap in. You can use the machine anytime if you want. It saves time when dealing with patients. For doctors who might not be tech-savvy, Imprivata OneSign helps them sign in seamlessly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Imprivata OneSign helps customers minimize their work in remembering passwords and enhances their security."
"It provides a service that allows users to sign in to whatever application they are using. This is the most important feature of this solution."
"It has benefited my organization in the way that it makes it more secure by making it harder to hack."
"I have seen many benefits from using Imprivata OneSign. It saves substantial time for nurses."
"The soundness of the solution is its most valuable feature. For example, if you are in our corporate network, you can log on without any traffic interfering."
"This is a user-friendly solution."
"I like PingFederate."
"I would recommend PingFederate as an IAM solution for its no-code environment, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, bidirectional services, and advanced features."
"It's convenient for users to log in through Ping using the Kerberos adapter because it doesn't require them to authenticate again."
"It gets a mobility portal in place in conjunction with Office 365. It provides very good possibilities and it's much better than other technology that we have used before which was unstable and slower."
"From a security perspective, I highly value the product's biometric authentication methods such as FIDO, FaceID, YubiKey, and the mobile app."
"It's pretty stable as a product."
 

Cons

"They should have a landing page."
"Imprivata OneSign should have a landing page because most customers prefer this feature, which is currently a strong point for competitors."
"Fast user switching and Citrix integration in Imprivata OneSign could improve. There are many options available for VDI connectivity, but I've seen issues with VDI connectivity and Citrix storefront connectivity."
"I would like for them to make this solution compatible with Mac OS. I would also like for them to provide a portal so that users can easily integrate it with their applications."
"Ping Identity Platform must improve its UI since its management console is complicated."
"In Ping Identity, we have had some issues. We've worked with logging and troubleshooting, including some firewall and security issues."
"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."
"They could use some bio-certification. It's just more user-friendly and more convenient than entering the one time passes. That would be an improvement."
"From the improvement perspective, they could bring IGA capability, which right now they only have in their SaaS offering."
"The timing of the token validity, if it could be extended, would be great. I'm not sure if there is even an option to configure these types of settings."
"The product's community has certain shortcomings that require improvement."
"We have encountered instances where it is not easy to do authentication."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable, it's an affordable solution."
"At the moment, I believe the price is reasonable."
"Ping offers flexible pricing that's not standardized."
"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."
"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."
"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."
"The pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."
"The product is costly."
"Compared to some SaaS-based solutions, the platform is relatively cost-effective."
"The tool is quite affordable."
