Room For Improvement

OneLogin's interface complexity, performance issues, and limited customization require improved UI, API, integration, documentation, and support.
OpenText Identity Governance needs better connectivity, integration, modernization, and technical support, alongside improved interface, stability, and cloud deployment features.
More real-time alerts, such as when access fails or MFA is triggered, would help users understand issues faster.

It is easy to implement and incorporate in any enterprise, and you can define the ROI pretty fast.

Overall, the pricing, setup, and licensing structure are transparent and deliver a good return on investment, especially when considering the operational efficiency and security improvements gained from using OneLogin.

Valuable Features

OneLogin enhances security and productivity with SSO, MFA, and easy integration, simplifying user access and reducing password fatigue.
OpenText Identity Governance provides robust access evaluations, role mining, and automated processes, ensuring stability and effective large-scale governance.
Multi-Factor Authentication is generally useful for adding an extra layer of security, which is crucial, especially for the sensitive nature of the data we handle.
Developer Intern at Stealth
With SmartFactor Authentication, I can balance between them. I can give users an easy and smooth user experience as long as the risk indices are low, but I can implement pretty rigid authentication workflows if the risk gets higher.

OneLogin's best features are its MFA capabilities as well as making it easier to access different applications depending on the user.

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.

Helps to run reports and verify user access but improvement is needed in integration
You can run reports and verify the access each user has. There is a process that runs automatically for access review. It sends an email to the manager and provides a task for the manager to review the users and access. The manager can approve or reject, and then it goes to the application owner for further review. This feature is especially important in large customer environments, as manual review can be challenging. The product allows you to check if a user has two accesses that should not be granted simultaneously. There's an approval process for this scenario. Primarily, it provides information for governance data.
