CA identity manager - great product that is easy to implement and maintain/scale

Pros

  • It has complete identity management and governance capabilities equipped with a simple, intuitive user experience and helps simplify processes such as user access requests and access certifications. This in turn helps in improved productivity and user satisfaction.

Cons

  • Bringing on new users and removing existing user when new employee/contractors join or leave an organization can be improved by linking directly to HR module.
  • The slightly complicated GUI makes drill down difficult for a new user.

Return on Investment

  • For us, it was a fairly easy implementation over 60 day period that provided ROI fairly quickly
