ND
Principle at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
User access management excels but needs enhancements with integration capabilities
I was aware of that because I used to manage these solutions earlier on, but it was purchased by the Procurement team, so I was not involved in any of those.There are certain details I may not be able to disclose currently, but we can speak in general about a number of products and tools that are ongoing. I have not been using access management controls here, so I don't have the latest features or details or hands-on experience in that space. I cannot share all the details about the improvements in security operations since we were exploring some products, but I'm familiar with Saviynt as I was one of their partners for other solutions, and currently, I cannot disclose a lot of performance related to my current roles.
Brooke Lynne Bowman - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Compliance Manager at a healthcare company with 201-500 employees
Streamlined compliance process with custom control framework and AI-driven security questionnaire management
Vanta has made the security questionnaire process much easier, thanks to AI. It automatically extracts answers and populates them within the SIG. The custom control framework allows me to incorporate our HITRUST controls and additional ISO twenty-seven thousand and one and financial controls. Moreover, it includes a knowledge bank for questionnaires and RFPs, making information updates more streamlined.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable aspects of SailPoint is its open integration interface."
"SailPoint has an edge in terms of security since administrators have limited access, unlike ServiceNow where you can change everything."
"It is a scalable product."
"I am satisfied with the overall performance and stability."
"The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager."
"Great product to manage the access control of users."
"It is simple and easy to implement."
"The basic concept is most valuable. I like how they have designed the solution. They create an Identity Cube, and then they do all the processes and configuration around the Identity Cube."
"It's the only current GRC vendor with licensing rights for HITRUST 11.3 framework, and I've avoided expensive HITRUST licensing costs through a custom control framework."
 

Cons

"When it comes to queries and analysis, I find the reporting module to be very low, very simple."
"SailPoint lacks some features like privileged account management and access management features found in products like Okta."
"They should lower the price and technical support should be better."
"If you compare Saviynt and Okta Workforce Identity versus SailPoint IdentityIQ, SailPoint IdentityIQ needs to improve its UI."
"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 user interface is not very user-friendly."
"The price of IdentityIQ could be lower. There are additional costs when you buy the licenses, and they force the customers to pay for them."
"Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive."
"The support experience could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little bit higher than other tools."
"SailPoint is expensive compared to its competitors. It's one of the most expensive products, so I'd rate it as one out of five, cost-wise."
"In terms of pricing, SailPoint IdentityIQ is affordable. It's not cheap, and it's not expensive, so the solution is in the middle, price-wise. It also didn't have additional costs, even if my company had different teams that took care of auditing and provisioning and projects that used SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"It is affordable licensing."
"It's difficult to say that the solution saved costs because it is quite expensive."
"The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years."
"I found the pricing to be relatively high."
"The solution is not cheap."

Questions from the Community

How does Sailpoint IdentityIQ compare with CyberArk PAM?
We evaluated Sailpoint IdentityIQ before ultimately choosing CyberArk. Sailpoint Identity Platform is a solution to manage risks in cloud enterprise environments. It automates and streamlines the m...
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for SailPoint IdentityIQ?
The product is expensive. People need to opt for a licensing plan for one year or three years.
What advice do you have for others considering SailPoint IdentityIQ?
You can use SailPoint Atlas to take identity security to the next level. In SailPoint IIQ, writing a custom connector using the open source framework is a good option.
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Veza?
The overall price point of Vanta is commendable, especially considering the custom control framework that allows me to evade the high costs associated with HITRUST licensing.
What needs improvement with Veza?
The support experience could be better. We often need to escalate our issues to the account executive to receive a response, especially when support is needed for integrations.
What is your primary use case for Veza?
We are currently in the implementation stages of Vanta. It's been challenging to build out as it is not as intuitive as OneTrust, especially in terms of scoping and needs.
