Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.

Makes identity management more robust with the new portal, but needs faster processing and better support
For basic tasks, it's acceptable, but when there are complexities and building on those complexities, it becomes slow because One Identity Manager doesn't do parallel processing; it processes in series and in batches. That's a drawback because with a heavy database and many processes, it becomes slow, which isn't ideal for user experience. There are many areas in One Identity Manager that have room for improvement. I don't prefer that One Identity Manager uses series processing where everything is in a queue; it has to process in order, which means there are too many layers involved in processing a single piece of information. If they could simplify that and make processing faster, it would be perfect. The database queue process doesn't make sense, and it's annoying waiting for processes to finish before another starts. Also, when upgrading, they should be more considerate; with the transition from One Identity Manager 7.0 to 8.2, many functions were phased out, requiring extensive upgrading of numerous scripts. I find it pretty difficult to customize the solution because you really need to be an expert. If you have about one year of experience, you can't do much with One Identity Manager. You need many years of experience to customize solutions effectively.

Streamlines access management with top-notch support, and a user-friendly interface, making it a highly effective solution for businesses of all sizes
During my evaluation of various products, one standout feature of OneLogin that impressed me was their mobile app for authentication through push notifications. Unlike traditional methods involving rotating codes, the OneLogin app simplifies the process by sending a push notification asking if the login attempt is legitimate. If confirmed, the login proceeds seamlessly. The primary benefit is its user-friendly interface, making it particularly accessible for non-technical users. One aspect I particularly appreciate is their exceptional customer support whenever I've needed assistance. Their sales team has also been highly responsive and helpful in connecting me with necessary resources, although we haven't faced any major challenges.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I appreciate all the support we receive from Omada."
"When we started with identity and access management, we cleaned up and skipped 500 accounts. Therefore, there are a lot of people who are still in our system. Using this tool, we have cleaned up a lot of accounts for ourselves as well as our partners and suppliers. So, we can manage everything now."
"Omada offers a technical solution that addresses both our needs."
"The benefits of Omada Identity include a holistic way of viewing access, the ability to give people access, and automation."
"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."
"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."
"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."
"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"One Identity is one of the most feature-rich platforms on the market. It covers every use case. The user interface has been improved, making it easier to make it look like what customers want. It's easier to customize than a lot of competition solutions. There are nearly a thousand built-in processes that you can edit and customize according to your needs."
"One Identity Manager is very customizable to meet customer requirements."
"I like the customer-facing portal because it is simple to use for end users."
"This solution is quite flexible. We have a lot of customization since we have our own business processes."
"With this product, we been able to bring together HR, IT, and lifecycle management. It is very helpful for managing the Joiner/Mover/Leaver process. We also use it for compliance on all the audits which are around."
"The One Identity Manager's user-friendly interface allows for easy external identities and user account creation."
"Business roles are one way to help companies to identify job codes and position codes. It enables the grouping and automating of certain types of access for certain departments... Doing that in One Identity Manager is a very simple task and it is very well organized."
"We have seen a slight reduction in help desk calls, as this solution is a self-service product."
"Once I made the OneLogin ID, it would essentially make user names and passwords for every application that we had."
"The solution allows the user to search logs based on a specific time."
"Simplicity is the most valuable part of OneLogin."
"When it comes to access management, the solution's single pane of glass is extremely important. The single pane of glass for access management enables collaborative work between IT and security. We have access to certain applications that require device trust. Based on the role, we can access those applications through OneLogin Desktop."
"The solution's ability to save and manage of all my passwords is great."
"OneLogin is efficient."
"The directory integration and SCIM provisioning are probably the best features compared to competitors."
"It's super useful to have a single pane of glass when it comes to access management."
 

Cons

"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."
"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."
"Omada Identity's user interface needs improvement, especially for new users."
"I would like to search on date fields, which is not possible now."
"The reporting on the warehouse data and the import process both have room for improvement."
"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."
"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience."
"Omada Identity has two main issues that need to be solved or improved the most. One is its setup or installation process because it's complex and cumbersome. I'm talking about the process for on-premises deployment because I've never tried the cloud version of Omada Identity. Setting up the cloud version should be much easier. The second area for improvement in Omada Identity is that it's piggybacking on Microsoft's complex way of having all kinds of add-ons, extensions, or setups, whether small or large, such as the new SQL Server, and it's cumbersome to make sure that everything works. Omada Identity is a complex solution and could still be improved."
"The product's GUI could be more user-friendly."
"The policy and role management features are a bit hard to scale. The whole model for who can do what and how to set it up is not so well-governed for a larger organization. The demos are always shown for a 100 or a 1000 people, but when it is a large number, it is quite difficult to maintain."
"I would like them to enhance the search functionality to enable faster processing when looking for objects."
"They could improve the support. Sometimes, you make a service request and don't get an answer. Then, sometimes, we don't get a response that we want, and it's frustrating."
"The initial setup was complex. We have a lot of different systems. The journey from implementing to joining all the systems was difficult."
"There are several smaller parts of the tool that have room for improvement."
"The interface can be a bit complex for an administrator to manage."
"The support model has room for improvement, especially when compared to competitors like Omada and SailPoint, which offer a more extensive global presence and support network."
"The uptime has not been great recently, with some outages lasting six, seven, or eight hours."
"The tool must be made more robust."
"The solution keeps going down for many hours, which impacts the entire company. You can't access any applications. OneLogin Desktop has a huge problem where it locks your computers and you need to reset the whole computer, which is pretty insane."
"OneLogin needs to increase the number of connectors available out of the box to connect to the different endpoints. The number of out-of-box connectors should be increased."
"OneLogin offers a Virtual LDAP feature that we utilize, although it differs slightly from traditional LDAP servers."
"I would like better reporting from SmartFactor Authentication when a user is not able to sign in due to a new location, new IP, new device, et cetera."
"More off-hour support."
"To offboard, you have to manually click on this checklist, each of the checkmarks. It would actually be really nice if, for offboarding someone, you just click "offboard" and it automatically runs a script to do that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Omada is expensive."
"Omada Identity is very reasonably and competitively priced."
"It is not cheap. None of these solutions are cheap, but we have good pricing at least for now from a licensing perspective."
"Omada Identity is competitively priced and delivers good value for our money."
"It's a fair price for the on-premises system. Compared with what we had before, it's much cheaper and we get all the modules in one. We tried to go with the cloud, but it was far too expensive."
"Omada is too expensive. We are in the automotive industry. The pricing might be high because most of the other customers are in the insurance or banking sectors, but it's steep for an auto supply company."
"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."
"My client deals directly with the Omada Identity team in terms of licensing. I never look at pricing, so I'm not aware of how much the solution costs, but it's worth the money. Often, when you begin to use Omada Identity and it takes a while to set up, it'll be irreversible, and you'd depend on and focus more on the functionality of the solution, rather than its price tag."
"I believe the pricing is fair."
"One Identity Manager is cost-efficient."
"I rate One Identity seven out of 10 for affordability. It's reasonably priced."
"It is cost-effective. I do not know about the other regions, but here in the Middle East, the competitors are almost double the price."
"One Identity Manager has a reasonable price point."
"It helps us save on licenses for applications because we are following the account lifecycle, as well as account reactivation."
"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."
"It was okay for us. It was not too much for us. It was nearly the same as other products. It was not expensive."
"The pricing for OneLogin seems to be okay. The pricing and licensing are affordable. If you'd consider OneLogin to be expensive, it's worth it."
"We were happy with the price we got when we signed up, but I don't know what will happen when the time comes to renew because it is a different company now. We haven't seen any pricing models or had that discussion yet. My renewal is a year and a half away. It's worth what we're paying for it. There's no way we could provide the level of service for cheaper or try to do the same in-house."
"It was cheap in the beginning, and then it became very expensive. We were initially charged $2 per user per month, which was fine, but by the second year, they increased it to $5 per user. That became very expensive for us because we had about 1,500 users. At $2 per user, it comes out to be $3,000 a month, which is $36,000 a year. If we move to $5 per user, it comes out to be $7,500 a month. That made its cost so high. That is why we removed the product because the cost was high."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
