Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a scalable solution.""I think it is really good when it comes to the hard token side of things.""The most valuable features of RSA SecurID Access are push notifications, multifactor authentication, and ease of integration and deployment.""One of the most valuable feature is the ID soft token and hard token.""I would say that the two-factor authentication and the ease of installation and configuration are the most valuable features of this solution."

More RSA SecurID Pros →

"I find the built-in connectors, lifecycle management, certification, and recertification features to be the most valuable.""This solution is great for providing control access across your environment.""SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others.""This solution has improved our organization through its ease of application onboarding, approvals, provisioning, and lifecycle UI performance.""We like the integration with other systems.""The big one now is that they're adding AI and machine learning to figure out automated approvals and make recommendations to their reviewers. So, if I bring up Doug McPherson and it says he has access to this application, the system will make a review based on peer group analysis. That's one of the biggest new things. The problem used to be that people would get everything loaded on, and they created too much work for themselves. Now, they can use these policies and start to let the machine pick the less risky things.""SailPoint has allowed us to ensure the right people have the right access and to the rights things.""What I like most about SailPoint IdentityIQ is that it's simple to use and easy to configure and deploy."

Cons
"It doesn't offer an agent-based or reverse-proxy-based approach to integration, which could enhance its flexibility.""The interface needs to improve a lot. It should be easier to manage and navigate.""Sometimes, we encounter issues with other applications that are not compatible with RSA SecurID Access and require expert troubleshooting. At those times, we need additional support from an implementation perspective. This is an area where Oracle can improve as there is no substitute for reliable and efficient support.""There are different compliances across the globe; RSA SecurID Access could be more complaint-based."

More RSA SecurID Cons →

"The UI needs to be more user friendly. More concentration on historical policy violations would be great. In terms of new features, I would like to see artificial intelligence and machine language added.""They should lower the price and technical support should be better.""Certifications could include additional access levels or practices.""The user interface could be slightly improved. It could be made simpler and more user-friendly, however, it is good enough right now.""Scalability is hard, especially when you are doing it in real time.""The connector for EPIC, ServiceNow, and Duo.""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.""What it doesn't do is provide notice in the event of a vulnerability or offense from the security."
