Has reduced manual work and shortened project timelines through faster deployment and intuitive workflows
One of the challenges regarding Saviynt is the lack of material available on the web, as searching on Google or YouTube often yields little information. Advertising Saviynt is necessary because I was not aware of it a couple of months ago, and it is a very helpful product for many organizations. In India, IGA solutions are not widely recognized, and Saviynt can utilize this point by promoting itself in the cybersecurity field. A significant challenge is the lack of people discussing Saviynt in the open market, as the forums provide slower responses compared to platforms like Reddit. Advancements related to AI would be very helpful. Saviynt should provide pricing for their university certifications, which is currently not publicly available. Information about enrolling requires an ID that is not easily obtained, as it can only be acquired through an organization. Some small wishlist features are related to APIs. As I work on projects, I find certain features to be much needed, but at a glance, they may not seem necessary. As I continue working with Saviynt, these small API-related features become apparent and would greatly enhance the experience.

Centralized access has strengthened secure troubleshooting and daily operations in restricted environments
Teleport offers excellent proxying capabilities, where you add Teleport SSH proxy, as well as strong support for web applications. Since we are tunneling into a restricted environment, Teleport serves as the one essential point of access, and it is highly secure due to our utilization of Okta and VPN for entering the environment. We use Teleport every day because the environment is restricted, and Teleport is the necessary access point. We are the sole team responsible for the production environment, which is a requirement from our sponsors. It does not take much to maintain it since the maintenance team handles it regularly, ensuring updates occur without disrupting progress. We, as the SRE team, coordinate to ensure Teleport remains operational so that we can troubleshoot and access systems.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Considering the initial cost and the basic features, this is a good solution that provides integration with both on-premise and cloud applications."
"Saviynt has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing the time for a project where we previously used a spreadsheet for manual work to keep the data, and helped reduce that time from around two weeks to two to three days or even less."
"The repository has many features where you can define primary and secondary owners."
"Saviynt is used for the greenfield implementation for the whole IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management."
"The most valuable features of Saviynt are database utility and report generation. These two features have a major impact, particularly when you are trying to create a report because, in other systems, you need to use a third-party utility such as a BI tool or any other reporting tool to fetch the data and send out the report to a third party team. In Saviynt, it's a system within a system, so you don't have to use any third-party tool because you can directly do your query and write that code on Saviynt and then send that report to the team."
"Saviynt has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing the time for a project where we previously used a spreadsheet for manual work to keep the data, reducing that time from around two weeks to two to three days or even less and decreasing the joiner-leaver lifecycle time to a couple of days, benefiting them significantly."
"The feature that we use the most is the global, third-party user management."
"The dedicated Freshdesk platform is a user community and a step in the right direction for offering learning resources."
"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."
"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."
"Teleport has helped us minimize incidents and maintain our uplinking time and uptime, and our organization's uptime is 99.90%, which is almost 100%."
"The best features include its main capabilities such as collecting actions and showing others what you did on the server, an easy way to connect to any bare-metal servers, and the ability to describe which servers you can use and who can connect to these servers."
"I would definitely advise others looking into using Teleport to try it out if they are seeking a tunneling or proxying solution to streamline obtaining access without dealing with DNS or SSH, as it is straightforward to install, can be tested in various environments, and is a truly exceptional product that is easy to use."
 

Cons

"The main difficulty was the integration process itself. But we were able to kind of work through it and fix it. We tried integrating with our HR system and other IBM solutions, like Microsoft Identity Management."
"The solution is hosted on AWS cloud, and there is some dependency that affects our bottom line."
"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."
"Saviynt cannot customize based on customer needs."
"The solution does not work very well as the number of users increases."
"While one product performed excellently, another was quite complex with code dating back 15 years."
"The UI doesn’t enhance the user experience."
"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."
"Managing 700 to 800 services is not easy."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"I think it should have less complexity to set up on self-hosted because it is still a difficult process and I spend a lot of time using it on self-host."
"Teleport is simple to use, but sometimes it requires extra research for more unique tasks, which slightly detracts from its overall quality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"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."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"We are not into the licensing part. The clients take care of the licensing part."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
