It is a heavyweight application. The product deployment and installation takes time, and the environment details are complex. ForgeRock is very quick to deploy on Tomcat, but Oracle Access Manager must be deployed on WebLogic, a heavyweight server. You cannot deploy Oracle Access Manager on Tomcat. If an organization has sufficient budget to spend on servers, then it is useful. For organizations that do not want to spend too much money on Oracle Access Manager, maintenance and upgrades take time, whereas with ForgeRock, that is the opposite as fewer resources are required. Being a heavyweight application, it will take more time for deployment and installation compared to ForgeRock or Okta. Okta is cloud-based, so it does not take much time. ForgeRock on-premise only needs deployment on a Tomcat server, making it less complex as it is a lightweight application.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves."
"With the Access Management Suite, you get identity federation, virtual directory and various other things so we can combine all of our backend Active Directory and other pieces into a directory that looks like one directory, including external users, vendors, and outside people with whom we have partnerships."
"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."
"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."
"The stability of the solution is good, we have never had any issues and neither have any of our clients."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access."
"Once it is set up, it is easy to use and it integrates with most of the products on the market."
"The self-service functionality for password/access management reduced our need for manual intervention."
"For v8.4, you can work easily if you stick to OOTB, however, should you require customization, then the tool is very flexible using SQL/VB knowledge to extend."
 

Cons

"Oracle Access Manager is only suited for enterprise identity and access management but it should be able to all support customer identity and access management use cases as well."
"Installation and deployment take time, but implementation is straightforward and easy, and they have very good support."
"Now they have changed support locations and customer support is not as good."
"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."
"The mobile access to the solution isn't ideal. They should work to improve its functionality."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."
"The performance of Oracle Access Manager could be improved. It should be quick to install, but it wasn't, so this is another area for improvement. The Oracle Access Manager console also has room for improvement because it's slow."
"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."
"Stability was a constant concern. The application was plagued with memory leak issues from initial installation and through multiple major/minor version upgrades."
"Moving from v7.x to v8.x is not easy. You need Courion expertise and skills to upgrade and migrate the data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is a little expensive."
"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 tool is affordable."
"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."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
