Honestly, they are very similar as is much of their offerings. It really comes down to which ecosystem are you already invested in? It doesn't make a lot of sense to try and interop with every cloud vendor - pick one and use them. While there used to be substantial differences …

Chose Imprivata Enterprise Access Management
None of the other toolsets offered Epic integration. I spent 9 months testing other SSO tools and found them to be slow and tied to specific tools and or workflows only. Imprivata OneSign was the only truly universal tool that I could find that was adaptable.

If your solution falls within their standard use case or you have Office 365 - then it makes total sense. If you need a lot of customization or have a really specific business process that causes you to deviate from the standard flow it usually makes more sense to create a custom solution

Imprivata is a clear market leader for authentication management for healthcare. They don't have a whole lot of competition, and the few competitors that are out there don't really match up.

  • The agent process was sometime slow.
  • System health was an issue and the tool really needs a maintenance process to allow for a system restart when not in use, we accomplished it with secondary scripts.
  • Disconnect with Citrix was sometimes an issue but we were running an older version of the application server. The logging and troubleshooting was cumbersome to comb through.
