    AWS Organizations is well suited for centralized billing and user management of all of your AWS accounts when paired with AWS SSO and a SAML provider of your choice. AWS Organizations does not have an integration with IAM user accounts and this could be helpful for organizations without SAML capability.

    It is brilliant for use as an identity and access management tool and ensures the safeguarding of our systems and upholds data integrity as a consequence. It was very easy to set up and apart from a straightforward installation, we have found customisation and configuration easy. It was easy to deploy in the cloud after using it previously on premises.

    • The mobile app can be a bit buggy at times if it gets fixed it would be great.
    • UI seems a bit old compared to modern tools out there.
    • There is a bit of a learning curve; if the developers can make it more intuitive it would be awesome.

    While setup and implementation takes work and time, the flexibility and possibilities make up for that in the long run. This is not a product you can just install and run, but if you design and implement your ruleset well, it will save you a lot of work afterwards. Just make sure that the systems you want to use it for have an existing and proven connector.

    Throughout the system testing we conducted, we never encountered an issue that wasn't easily solvable. We did find some of the documentation confusing at times, but we overcame this quickly with some speedy support assistance. Implementation into production was a lot smoother following the testing we conducted.

    We conducted a comparison study between IBM Verify and Okta as well as Duo Security before making our selection. IBM Verify emerged as the perfect fit because its superior capability to integrate with our current system environment surpassed competitor security solutions. IBM Verify demonstrated superior reliability through its enterprise-class scalability and fully transparent auditing mechanisms.

    The licensing terms were favourable due to their flexibility based on the size and purpose of implementation. The billing frequency is done on quarterly basis. The vendor team has enacted best user policies that gives the company the full control of this platform. It is cost-effective as compared to most security verification tools in the market.

    In the case of adjustments, we were often able to carry them out completely on our own and only used professional services for new requirements. Particularly in the case of access management, it is very positive that we usually needed IBM for a task in less than an hour and then developed the solution further on our own.

    • AWS Organizations allow for quick user access when paired with AWS SSO and SAML groups.
    • AWS Organizations does not use IAM users and there is an initial cost in time to set up AWS SSO.

    • It has allowed us to securely store and access data which is hard to put a price on, but is of tremendous value.
    • It has performed well and we did not have to upgrade any of the current equipment that we had.
    • It has allowed us to branch out slightly and offer more mobile solutions both internally and externally.
