Featured Reviews

Amit Rathod - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Analyst - IDAM at Toll Holdings Limited
Unified sign-in has simplified access control and has supported end-to-end identity lifecycle
The authentication process is good, but sometimes the responsiveness to requests for enhancement is very slow. I sometimes face issues with platform stability, flexibility in configuration, and limited API availability. I experience downtimes two to three times per year. OneLogin's support team is sometimes very slow to respond. There is a feature limitation with mapping, as OneLogin does not provide one-to-all mapping. For client deployment, we need to create separate mappings for each request, and we cannot use the same mapping for multiple requests. Other areas that have room for improvement are related to API limitations. If a client requires more APIs, such as 5,000 or 6,000, OneLogin charges more. The API rate limits by default or the standard limit should provide more than 5,000. Additionally, OneLogin could provide more flexibility in configuration. These are the main limitations I have identified with OneLogin.

Focused workdays have replaced doomscrolling and now reduce my daily screen time significantly
Opal can be improved in some ways. In the paid version, there are multiple features, but in the freemium version, there are fewer features. The blockage of the application can be more rigorous. Right now, if we play two to three games, then a math game or anything, we are able to remove that lock. It should be more rigorous in some manner, and for some applications, it should be more rigorous. Application-wise rigorousness should be introduced. The different modes are good, but they should be more customizable according to the person. The end goal should meet whatever the objective is, so if the person has used more than six hours, then it should remind the person frequently that this application has used this time and this is an application you should not use. It should give us a timer or some kind of notification that the person will not use it anymore.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am getting very good feedback from the end users regarding OneLogin, they are very happy and say this experience they are getting with this solution is excellent."
"The single sign-on feature of OneLogin is the most valuable and useful for me, as it allows one-click access to all apps, eliminating password juggling and frustration while providing centralized access control."
"OneLogin provides a seamless end-user experience, and we are receiving very good and positive responses from end-users."
"The outcomes since adopting OneLogin are very positive, saving our time with a reduced workload by 30 to 40 percent, and user provisioning, including onboarding or off-boarding, has become very fast by 60 to 80 percent."
"OneLogin is still the market's most exemplary solution."
"Greatly improved our password security and policies surrounding them."
"Overall, it not only strengthens security but also simplifies the access management process, making daily operations more efficient and manageable."
"We have been able to save sixty-five to seventy percent of time, and we have also seen enhanced security overall."
"Previously, my phone usage was around nine hours and fifteen minutes or more, but it has significantly reduced to around six hours and thirty minutes to seven hours, meaning two and a half to three hours has been reduced after using Opal as my primary screen time blocker."
"Opal has positively impacted my organization by reducing stress and increasing effectiveness for all our employees; it works better so all our employees have more time to sleep and they can investigate more."
 

Cons

"OneLogin by One Identity is strong, but there is room to improve."
"OneLogin can be improved by making the initial setup and configuration process simpler, especially for teams like mine that are new to identity and access management."
"OneLogin needs to improve as sometimes there are glitches in the software."
"The areas that do have room for improvement include a learning curve."
"They have downtime twice a year or once in six months. During the downtime, the SSO page did not come up. When users wanted to get to their email, they were redirected to the OneLogin page, but the page did not come up, and MFA and logins failed. It completely crippled us."
"The mobile app is not best and it could be improved."
"Improving the integration of legacy applications would reduce manual work during implementation."
"The one area for enhancement I can suggest is the initial setup, which requires considerable planning to execute the deployment."
"Opal can be improved in some ways."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"OneLogin's pricing, from the perspective of the education sector, seems quite reasonable for the value it delivers."
"While I wish OneLogin's pricing was more affordable, their licensing model, which is based on per user, is acceptable."
"The price of the licensing is fine."
"Surprisingly expensive given the price of on-premise solutions."
"The pricing and licensing are reasonable. It is much cheaper than other products."
