Principle at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
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

"It has improved our organization because it is fast, accurate, and easy to maintain."
"The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager."
"This solution is easy to configure."
"The support is very good."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"It significantly reduces the workload for certification processes."
"The solution is pretty stable and simple to use."
"The solution is very good at the management of the identity lifecycle."
"The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good."
 

Cons

"One item I would like to see improved is the ability to clean the deeper parts of the machine with simplicity."
"Needs to focus on automation wherein provisioning of work can be improved and access certification should be automated without the intervention from a manager for approval."
"The solution needs to have more out-of-the-box integration with different applications and solutions."
"Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting."
"There is a need for further enhancements, specifically in the multifactor authentication capabilities."
"There's a lot of customization required to improve the user experience."
"The product must improve its support."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has a primitive AI engine."
"Competitors are advancing by offering integrated solutions encompassing access and privileged access management in a single unified platform. IdentityIQ's focus has remained primarily on identity and access governance, neglecting to expand its offerings to include these additional functionalities within its existing product. Enhancing their product by incorporating modules for access management, privileged access management, and third-party access governance could address this gap."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The machine costs around five hundred thousand dollars."
"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."
"The pricing is a little bit higher than other tools."
"As per my knowledge, it runs on a paid partnership model, but I am not sure about it."
"It's all competitive. Initially, the prices look a bit higher, but once it gets into a competitive situation, they meet the market. I'd rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing. It tends to be more expensive, but it works."
"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."
"SailPoint is expensive compared to its competitors. It's one of the most expensive products, so I'd rate it as one out of five, cost-wise."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is highly-priced, and I rate it an eight out of ten for pricing."
