Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and others in Authentication Systems."The mobile biometric authentication option improved user experience. It's always about security because, with two-factor authentication, it's always a separate device verifying the actual user logging in."
"What I like best about PingID is that it's very user-friendly. PingID is well-built as a developer tool and regularly upgrades and updates via patches. I also like that PingID has clear documents that will help you integrate it with other solutions."
"I find the auto-discovery feature the most valuable. It helps us automate a lot of things using a single password across applications."
"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."
"It's pretty stable as a product."
"The solution has a smooth and configurable user interface for single sign-on capabilities."
"I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use."
"It provides ease of connecting all our devices."
"The most valuable features of SAP Identity Management are business roles and automated user provisioning."
"The tool's most valuable features are its access control and approval of access requests. The self-service password reset feature is efficient. Role management capabilities streamline user access by assigning and revoking roles."
"What I found most valuable in SAP Identity Management is process automation. The solution also gives transparency about what is happening and why which I find beneficial. Another feature I found valuable in SAP Identity Management is integration. It has very good integration."
"The most valuable feature is the user experience for managing information."
"The setup process is straightforward."
"What I like about SAP Identity Management is that it's stable for experienced users and suitable for access management, not just for SAP accounts, but for Active Directory, including file sharing and process sharing."
"Rather than implement a basic SSO, this solution assisted us with setting up two-factor authentication."
"What's most valuable in SAP Identity Management is that it's easily an out-of-the-box solution for connectivity with SAP applications. We do not have to do any customizations, and this makes the solution very compatible with most SAP applications. SAP Identity Management is also very user-friendly."
"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."
"If the solution is going to compete with Microsoft, they need to offer more unique functionality to keep their current user base."
"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."
"They could use some bio-certification. It's just more user-friendly and more convenient than entering the one time passes. That would be an improvement."
"PingID's device management portal should be more easily accessible via a link. They provide no link to the portal like they do for the service. The passwordless functionality could be more comprehensive. You can't filter based on hardware devices. Having that filtering option would be great. Device authentication would be a great feature."
"PingID would benefit from a better user interface for integration."
"The management console needs to be improved. PingID should revise it."
"I have encountered issues with the host authentication feature."
"What needs improvement in SAP Identity Management is its compatibility with third-party applications. We'd like to get connectors or plugin settings to make it easier to manage other applications, whether SAP or non SAP applications. As SAP Identity Management is not compatible with non SAP applications, some of the clients are looking for other IDM applications such as SalePoint and Saviynt, so this is an issue we've observed in the solution."
"SAP Identity Management can improve risk analysis and authority checks."
"I find SAP Identity Management complicated to use. Maintaining it is also complex."
"Research and marketing need to be improved."
"The pricing could be better."
"It needs to have the SSO for the HANA modules that SAP is releasing."
