Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The single sign-on feature is excellent."
"The features that we have found most valuable with NetIQ Access Manager are its single sign-on and two factor two second factor database."
"The most valuable features of NetIQ Access Manager are SSO and Multi-Factor Authentication."
"It's very easy to integrate with applications."
"There are lots of options to customize the solution to your needs."
"The scalability of the solution is good. We haven't felt we've been restricted from expanding as necessary and we haven't heard of any issues from our clients."
"The solution is able to save time and resources for my clients."
"The product supports customization."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."
"My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on."
"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products."
"Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access."
 

Cons

"The application portal could be improved with more options and easier customization."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the security of the infrastructure and the server and the working networking device."
"Having the ability to easily extract and view and compare and version control configurations would be ideal."
"I would love to see the upgrade procedure handled more effectively. I would prefer to have OVS installation possibilities, although the upgrade procedures should include the OS as well. You should be able to use the whole application as an appliance."
"Classification of junctions and new versions of applications, such as APIs, can be added to enable the use of more devices that utilize biometrics for Multi-Factor Authentication to improve the solution."
"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."
"The initial implementation can definitely be improved because you have to work on several components to configure it correctly."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."
"The technical support is not very good at all."
"May not integrate easily with non-Oracle products."
"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."
"Installation and deployment take time, but implementation is straightforward and easy, and they have very good support."
"In other products, we can customize on the GUI end, whereas in Oracle, we need to take a backup of the JAR file and then customize it...and during this process, sometimes the WebLogic admin console will go down, which will impact the process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is average."
"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."
"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
"The tool is affordable."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
"The product is a little expensive."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
