Featured Reviews

Pernilla Hulth - PeerSpot reviewer
The interface is easy to use and gives you a solid overview
The cloud-based deployment was straightforward, but the on-prem deployment was in a highly complex ecosystem. Omada has matured since then. I wouldn't say that it isn't straightforward, but it depends on the customer. A standard deployment is relatively easy, but it can be more painful if you need a lot of customization. We deployed the cloud solution in around four months, nearly meeting the 12-week benchmark. The on-prem deployment took three years. It was a highly complex ecosystem that was dependent on other systems. Depending on the size of your environment, you need a product owner and some specialists for maintenance. My last customer was a university with a complex environment. They had around 12 people involved in maintenance at that organization. Typically, it's between 2-5 people.

Adapts workflows with industry-specific flexibility for big companies
We find flexibility to be one of the most valuable features. The solution can be customized to adapt the workflow to our industry, offering considerable flexibility. Additionally, it is considered a good solution for large companies due to its scalability and ability to cater to the needs of many customers. It has also enhanced security and provided significant flexibility for our specifications module.
Suresh Kumar Subramaniyan - PeerSpot reviewer
Has delivered strong identity automation while support response could be faster
With either SailPoint or Saviynt, I utilize this product, as do some of my clients, with AWS as a main cloud provider. We are not using AWS; we were using only Saviynt. We never used AWS because we don't have any customers for AWS. Saviynt likely uses an AWS server for their database, though I'm not certain how they utilize AWS services. The cloud-native capabilities of Saviynt contribute to enhanced cloud security as they are operating a cloud-based solution. Saviynt's capabilities for automating user provisioning and access are excellent, and their IGA functionality is perfect. The specific details about their IGA capability show excellence in terms of automated onboarding, off-boarding process, and JML processes, making it a strong solution in this market. I rate Saviynt 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"We used to have a problem where an employee's access wasn't terminated when they left the company. Now, we have much better visibility into and control over who has access."
"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to set up connectors to various IT systems and offer a wide range of supported connectors."
"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."
"The administrative features and SoD are valuable."
"Support-wise, working with Omada has been good. We have very good direct interactions and fast responses."
"The support for the validity of the resources is valuable. The tool allows resource assignments within a validity period so that the managers do not have to remember to revoke the access once the work is done."
"The governance features, such as certification and provisioning, are the most beneficial for enhancing security."
"SailPoint has allowed us to ensure the right people have the right access and to the rights things."
"Provides functionalities for various stages, such as joiner, mover, and leaver"
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance."
"Security and administration for any new/current access."
"Certifications and user provisioning features are the most valuable."
"Access certification and provisioning are two of the solutions most valuable features."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."
"It's easy to manage and easy to use; a simple tool for end-users."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"Based on my experience working with Saviynt, they deserve a rating of nine because they are very responsive to support."
"Saviynt is superior because it is user-friendly, and their fundamental phenomena are no-code, low-code, which means no customization is needed for the implementation part."
"The repository has many features where you can define primary and secondary owners."
"The most valuable aspect of Saviynt is its market acceptance."
 

Cons

"The reporting and importing have room for improvement."
"The account management integration isn't bad, but it isn't plug-and-play like Microsoft Azure. You need some deep development knowledge to set up the connectors."
"There's a challenge with handling large amounts of data in this system."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"The biggest issue, which is the reason why we are transitioning from their product to SailPoint, is the overall user experience. From a technical perspective, it is a very good product, but from an end-user experience perspective, it significantly lacks."
"I would like to see them expand the functionality of the tool to continue to be competitive with the monsters out there. For example, they could add functionality on the authentication side, functionality that Octa and SailPoint have. But they should do that while maintaining the same simplicity that makes Omada a product of choice today."
"We are trying to use Omada's standards and to adapt our processes. But we have had some trouble with the bad documentation. This is something that they could improve on. It has not been possible for us to analyze some of the problems so far, based on the documentation. We always need consultants. The documentation should include some implementation hints and some guidelines for implementing the processes."
"The solution should be made more agile for customers to own or configure."
"In general, I have handled Okta and OpenText and noted that those companies have a longer history in the market, which gives them an advantage over SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and Saviynt in aspects like account provisioning and life cycle management."
"The advanced provisioning features require more improvement."
"It allowed to implement the automated processes when a new employee is hired. It allows to have a main central process for new hires."
"They can work on their strategy for the on-premise version. They have to decide whether and for how long they will support the on-premise version. The new features first appear in the cloud, and after that, they are released for the on-premise version. In the cloud, you have more options and flexibility, which is absolutely normal. They have to have a clear strategy regarding whether they'll support the on-premises version with the same focus. The licensing for on-premise and cloud is a little bit different. They can make it the same."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ needs to improve its customization. It should also incorporate some standardized tools for implementation."
"The solution needs to have more out-of-the-box integration with different applications and solutions."
"Needs to focus on automation wherein provisioning of work can be improved and access certification should be automated without the intervention from a manager for approval."
"I would like to see more Cloud management from this product."
"UI and support could be improved. The frequent updates and version changes can be disruptive for large organizations. Not every month, a large organization can go with the changes. Saviynt needs to consider this carefully."
"Both SailPoint IdentityNow and Saviynt have some bugs, but SailPoint is considered more mature with fewer bugs due to its longer establishment in the market since around 2005. SailPoint had its share of bugs in the early days, but they have resolved them over time, resulting in a stable product. Saviynt, on the other hand, was launched around 2013 or 2014 and is actively working to improve its product. Despite having some bugs, Saviynt is making progress and aims to build a stable product, but it is not there yet."
"It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part."
"The customer support and implementation services need to be improved."
"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."
"The product lacks a broad user base which makes it difficult sometimes to find answers to questions about the product."
"We sometimes experience performance issues when the solution fails to process the data between two different applications."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for Omada Identity is fair."
"It is licensed per managed user per year."
"Being Dutch, I can only say that it is extremely expensive, but all software products are expensive. If you have 38,000 users, then even one dollar or one euro per person would amount to a significant amount of money. Because of the high number of users, anything gets expensive very fast here."
"It is not cheap. None of these solutions are cheap, but we have good pricing at least for now from a licensing perspective."
"Omada continues to be very competitive on pricing, especially on the Omada cloud product."
"Omada is too expensive. We are in the automotive industry. The pricing might be high because most of the other customers are in the insurance or banking sectors, but it's steep for an auto supply company."
"The initial total cost of ownership to implement Omada Identity is not small. The TCO for the implementation is as high as any other solution. However, the cost of maintaining the solution is at par or lower than competitors, including adding more features or maintaining the system after the initial deployment or installation to make sure that they are available for users to use or extending the functionalities of those activities. Those maintenance costs are lower than other vendors, but the initial cost of getting the system installed is still high."
"The pricing is too high for SMBs."
"SailPoint IIQ is the best of best. That is reflected in the pricing of the solution. The pricing is based on the number of identities."
"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"SailPoint is higher in price as compared to Saviynt. The initial cost of SailPoint is very high. There are additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"It is a costly solution. Its cost, for sure, should be reduced."
"The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"Usually, the cost of deploying about 5,000 licenses or 5,000 users, would be the equivalent to the cost of the license, which would be reaching up to around $90,000."
"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
"This is an expensive solution. I would rate it a two and a half out of five for pricing."
"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
