Efficiently manage applications with secure single sign-on and streamlined operations

Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access. Its ability to consolidate applications on a single interface streamlines operations significantly. The product is highly secure and reliable, especially in managing user access across various platforms. Multi-factor authentication enhances security by requiring additional verification steps.

Offers multi-factor authentication and application support side of PingFederate but application only supports specific protocols

A lot of teams work with technical support, but I work with it for user issues only. You might need support with things like application swaps, application names, and application URLs. I didn't know where to find those in Ping Identity, so I contacted technical support for those issues. The support team is very clever and active. They provide end-to-end support once an issue is created. I have worked with most of the support team. I also work with the support team because I work with the operations team. I provide 24/7 support to production and non-production environments. I coordinate with application and network teams to troubleshoot critical tickets and issues related to Ping Identity solutions.

Cons

"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."

"Although Oracle Access Manager is generally stable, we experienced issues with multi-domain configurations and web agent settings."

"The initial implementation can definitely be improved because you have to work on several components to configure it correctly."

"To improve Oracle Access Manager, they should consider integrating more policies and enhancing automation, especially in managing server load and cache cleanup."

"The pricing of the solution is in need of improvement. Oracle products are very expensive."

"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."

"The technical support is not very good at all."

"There are problems with stability."

More Oracle Access Manager cons

"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."

"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."

"One significant challenge was ensuring smooth user migration during system upgrades in Ping."

"PingID should put a little more effort into making a pretty self-explanatory deck about their tech features and the services they offer."

"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."

"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."

"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."

"The product is not customizable."

"The tool is affordable."

"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."

"Can be expensive as a solution."

"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."

"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."

"Ping Identity Platform is not very expensive."

"PingID pricing is a ten out of ten because it's a little bit cheaper than other tools, such as Okta and ForgeRock, and supports multiple tools."

"The platform's value justifies the pricing, especially considering its security features and scalability."
