Featured Reviews

VinayM - PeerSpot reviewer
Used for IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management
The technical support team's response time could be improved. After the implementation, Saviynt should provide good support to their customers. While migrating from legacy applications to the cloud, Saviynt has many bugs. The lift and shift are not very seamless. There are a lot of customizations to be done and some development is required. From the migration point of view, the solution is a little buggy.
Jyothikumar C - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlined access management through integration and simplified setup
Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers. It integrates well with single sign-on (SSO) and Ansible Playbooks, allowing me to manage inventories easily. Teleport provides a straightforward setup process with a single command line, making it easier to manage the onboarding and offboarding of team members.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a highly functional system and a very well rounded solution. The onboarding of applications is solid. Their user access reviews are very good. Their role-based model and their identity life cycle stuff are solid. It's a very well rounded, strong product."
"Based on my experience working with Saviynt, they deserve a rating of nine because they are very responsive to support."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"Saviynt has better integration with enterprise systems like SAP, Microsoft, Adobe, and AWS."
"It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click."
"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"The repository has many features where you can define primary and secondary owners."
"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."
"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."
 

Cons

"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
"The custom application integration is a little complex, and this tool doesn't provide so many plugins or additional applications."
"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."
"The customer support and implementation services need to be improved."
"An area for improvement in Saviynt is that there's a limitation on the number of logs you can get from the past twenty-four hours. For example, if the data is huge, the tool can only give you a maximum of one hundred logs. You can't get any further than that. In the next version of Saviynt, however, you can get more logs and you'll see them inside the log rotation. For example, when you're trying to search inside the log, you can select a date range, and then you can search for a particular log. We haven't used that new log rotation feature yet, but it's included in the next release of Saviynt. Another area for improvement in the tool is that it doesn't have a server monitoring feature, so if your server has a high load, it should give you a warning. You're supposed to get an alert similar to what's being done in WebLogic. In WebLogic, we had a separate facility, but in Saviynt, that feature's missing."
"The solution is hosted on AWS cloud, and there is some dependency that affects our bottom line."
"According to feedback I've received, some users prefer SailPoint over Saviynt in real complex environments. SailPoint has its provisioning platform. Complex integrations may pose challenges in scenarios like a large bank with thousands of users, making SailPoint a preferred choice for some."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"Saviynt has a competitive price."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
"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."
"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
