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.

Automated access reviews have improved least privilege and simplified identity governance
The best features Opal offers are automated access reviews, centralized visibility, and just-in-time access. I especially appreciate the ability to enforce time-bound access and automatically revoke privileges, which makes least privilege management much more practical. The automated access reviews have made the process much more efficient by giving us a structured way to review and revoke unnecessary permissions. Instead of manually checking every entitlement, we can focus on exceptions and higher risk access, which makes the review process more manageable and consistent. I would also add that the context Opal provides during access reviews is valuable. You can see the access relationship and risk rather than simply approving or denying it blindly. This makes the decisions more informed and gives the team a much better audit trail.

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."
"OneLogin is easy to use and manage, which is one of the best features."
"OneLogin has been a reliable and user-friendly IAM platform that helped simplify SSO and strengthen MFA adoption without creating too much complexity for users or administrators."
"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."
"I am impressed with OneLogin as the main data entry point for accessing most websites from a secure login entity, which is why I could really recommend it to other enterprises."
"OneLogin has had a very positive impact on our organization, especially in terms of efficiency and security."
"OneLogin simplifies access by allowing me to log in to multiple business tools, which saves time and reduces hassles, allowing me to safely focus on my work without the interruption caused by login issues."
"Around 30 to 40 percent of time is saved since using OneLogin, and the error has been reduced because a single login manages all the applications, significantly cutting down on errors."
"The clearest outcome I have seen is less manual effort during access reviews and better control over unnecessary or standing access, which improves the overall security posture."
"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

"The mobile app is not best and it could be improved."
"The debugging feature is a bit problematic."
"I occasionally face some connectivity outages and glitches with OneLogin, which sometimes delay the login process when I am trying to access my data from various applications."
"OneLogin could be improved with more add-ins for integration with Entra ID and Exchange Online."
"In our country, many small and medium businesses find it not very affordable, so a subscription plan for those companies would make it better."
"In terms of productivity, initially it was a challenge; people were not used to getting SMS messages on their phones, especially if it's not a company provided phone, and some people even complained that they didn't want to use their phone to get work-related SMS messages even if it's multi-factor authentication."
"Regarding OneLogin's improvement, I would suggest making the interface more user-friendly and enhancing security features through implementing DLP."
"However, if there were multiple documentations about the technical points and what each tab on the GUI is used for, it would be very helpful for others who want to learn, because I did not find a lot of resources about it on the internet."
"Opal can be improved in some ways."
"The core platform is already strong, but I would appreciate more flexibility in customizing workflows and access review policies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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