We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiAuthenticator and SAP Identity Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Identity Management (IM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Omada's best feature is creating accounts, automatically assigning permissions, and distributing resources based on assignment policies."
"Two valuable features of Omada Identity are the ability to discover accounts and link them to identities, and the automatic disabling of inactive accounts or identities."
"We don't have to go in and do a lot of the work that we did before. It may have saved us somewhere in the range of 10 to 30 percent of the time we spent on provisioning access."
"What I like most is that we can always find a solution, and we can also find the cause when something goes wrong. I like that the most because everything is in one way or another traceable. That is what I like most. I like its reliability."
"The key benefit of Omada Identity is maintaining complete control."
"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"The identity lifecycle support is definitely valuable because we are a complex organization, and there is a lot of onboarding, movement, and offboarding in our organization. We have 31,000 users, and there are a lot of users who are constantly onboarding, offboarding, and moving. So, we need to make sure that these activities are supported. In old times, we used to do everything manually. Everyone was onboarded, offboarded, or moved manually. So, from a business point of view and an economics point of view, identity lifecycle is most valuable. From a security point of view, access review is the most important feature for us."
"The ease of use is really nice. Using Authenticator, I've been able to actually work better on my authentication due to the fact that I have a single fabric to authenticate control from my firewall and on my access points. Authentication takes place from this area."
"Valuable features include the robust SSO features, when you have more complicated authentication within an organization. We can mix AD, Radius, Portal, SSO Portals (Google, etc.), and build our own environment. It is very flexible."
"It integrates very tightly with the rest of the Fortinet ecosystem."
"For someone concerned with multifactor authentication, I'm satisfied with the product."
"This is a scalable product."
"The implementation has significantly improved access management within our organization."
"It keeps track of users and their IPs no matter where they are in the network. When users roam, we don't have to worry about not mapping them to an IP."
"The product enables SSO."
"It provides basic automatic user administration and role provisioning to save time."
"The most valuable features of SAP Identity Management are business roles and automated user provisioning."
"The setup process is straightforward."
"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 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'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."
"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."
"When the re-certification process is launched that makes Omada very slow. There are performance issues in the current version."
"The security permission inside Omada needs improvement. It's tricky to set up."
"The architecture of the entire system should also be less complex. The way they process the data is complex."
"If you're running Omada on a cloud service, you may have some issues deploying the newest release. Sometimes, the latest release doesn't adapt to the processes we have already installed. Identity Access Management is a critical system for our organization, and we need to ensure that everyone has the same access as they did before the release."
"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."
"There is room for improvement in Omada's integration capabilities, particularly in streamlining complex integrations and enhancing programming logic for better rule management."
"When you do a recalculation of an identity, it's hard to understand what was incorrect before you started the recalculation, and which values are actually updated... all you see are all the new fields that are provisioned, instead of seeing only the fields that are changed."
"It is not possible to customize reports on Omada Identity."
"The customization capability of Fortinet FortiAuthenticator is not very flexible."
"It would be helpful to receive a code by yourself for authentication instead of it registered to a phone."
"I would like to see more support from Fortinet with tech support people who have as much expertise on the authenticator as they do on their firewalls."
"We would like to see Linux-based operating systems be able to integrate with FortiAuthenticator to get two-factor authentication running on them. as well. This is a shortcoming that I have faced a few times already."
"The GUI has some shortcomings and can be made better. The GUI is not great."
"The hardware aspect of the solution could be improved. We are not really able to understand the hardware capabilities of the device."
"Improvements in the product could start from the dashboard, overall customization, and configuration."
"I don't have any issues with this solution, but it may need a better, more user-friendly interface or better design of the platform."
"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."
"A lack of startup connectors to different systems, and could have better connectors for SAP IDM."
"SAP Identity Management can improve risk analysis and authority checks."
"I have encountered issues with the host authentication feature."
"It needs to have the SSO for the HANA modules that SAP is releasing."
"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."
