The manual deprovisioning and permissions management Bettercloud provides is really good. The state of workflow automations however is not where it needs to be, particularly if we can't use those workflows to automate user creation using not just our default username/email convention, but one that is very common across most organizations.

We are happy with the management of the Id, accounts where the user can request any access easily. Also the many connector which Sailpoint is offering in order to onboard lots of applications is quite helpful. The access review module has also have been improve so that large campaigns can we work out easily.

Where we see some improvement is on the UI as here it is not so intuitive for the end user, so that we need to make lots of communications and training so that the user is able to understand how to use it.

For the administration and creation of roles it also would be great to have some improvements here to make it more easily its management.

Pros
  • Allows us to quickly audit and assign delegates to email account, something that's completely missing in Google as an administrative function
  • Allows us to automate offboarding of a Google account
  • Allows us to perform bulk actions, like assigning email signatures and forwarding to hundreds of accounts at a time
  • Allows us to audit Google Drive files. Orphaned files are very common in Google Workspace, and BetterCloud allows us to find them and take ownership of them.

  • The access request work flow and back end process is exceptional. It effectively manages all of the various pieces of a request and presents the completed request to the provisioning agent as a single record. This is very helpful to the efficiency of the process since the provisioning agent only sees the completed request rather than seeing each component as it is approved. Other systems deliver the various request components to provisioning as they are approved but cannot be provisioned without all the components. Thus creating complexity for the provisioning agent and impacting the SLAs with what looks like a delay with the provisioning process.
  • The system is robust enough to effectively handle the scale that we need. With 750+ applications, 24,304 individual entitlements to select from, and an average of 10,200 request transactions per month. We have never had any performance issues.
  • The system flexible enough to accommodate our complex business needs without needing to customize the base system. We have been able to add significant functionality to the system in order to support the business needs by extending the code rather than altering the base code. This has enabled a simple upgrade of the system without having to re-apply code enhancements.

Cons
  • Integration with Google in the App version to allow pushing of email signatures, this feature is available in the legacy version.
  • More canned reports, although custom reports are available for you to build yourself.
  • More onsite visits with customers if available, to be onsite and see what challenges are available first hand.

  • Technical adoption requires a high level of training and experience by the implementing teams.
  • SailPoint and partners offers very good training courses which I think are very good. An area of improvement can be in providing cloud VMs that users can work with to learn the IIQ tool more effectively at their own pace.

Support for BetterCloud is excellent. They have fantastic email support who are very responsive and knowledgeable, but more importantly they have chat support that are absolutely top-notch. They have not only the knowledge to answer and help, but the capability to solve without escalations or runarounds. These support folks are the real deal.

Far and away a better capability when it comes to integrations and automation. My experience with BetterCloud, especially from a support perspective has ALWAYS been great. As the product has progressed from FLASHPANEL to g.bettecloud to app.bettercloud that support experience has stayed top notch.

SailPoint is a more customizable solution than Okta, it is also not just a cloud application. Our use of IIQ to manage external suppliers via Azure AD guest accounts was not available on other platforms at the point of deployment. The integration with SAP and other Microsoft services is also second to none.

Return on Investment
  • Data monitoring: previously unavailable insight into our organization’s file-sharing habits and documents.
  • Granular roles: ability to set least-access permissions. And really, truly granular unlike some other applications.
  • Automation: we’ve already saved dozens of man hours using workflows. Gives us time to focus on things that matter without compromising common tasks.
