Cross Identity vs. OneLogin by One Identity

Password reset is where they perform well. The product is very economical compared to other SSO vendors But even with this price, there is a lot of improvement that is needed. The management is poised to make changes but the engineers at Cross Identity need to take their job more seriously in my opinion.

OneLogin definitely has a range of people it could work for. Everything from individuals who just want a better login process. Small companies who are wanting a way to keep a better count of who has access to what, and large corporations that want to implement a login process that will reduce the number of helpdesk tickets due to forgotten passwords.

• The application integration part is easy to deploy.
• The dashboard is good and user-friendly.
• The portal can be accessed from anywhere since we have gone to the cloud-based model.
• It provides a secure solution with certificate management that can restrict access from unauthorized apps.
• The technical support is good.

• Lack of administrative APIs for creating or setting up new connectors: This prevents the automated integration to federations and requires manual setup rather than discovery-based automated setup.
• Customization of the interface: The potential configuration of the interface are still limited at the moment (logo, primary and secondary colors, background). This prevents the usage of the platform as a communication medium or to organize the space in a more standard fashion (for our institution)
• There are some limitations with using the apps provisioning APIs that can lead to some termination or provisioning actions not being completed

Our experience with Cross Identity has not been very good, particularly recently, we are in the middle of many issues, outages etc. The management has given us all kind of assurances but we are still waiting for the results to start show.

OneLogin is very easy to use. The most complicated part is the user setup and even that is not difficult. After everything is working, using it day to day is trivial. All you have to do is have the application ready on your phone and you can use a single set of login credentials to access all of your tools securely.

Support is not appropriate. I mean the product support ad managed services both. It would be great if they can introduce a more coherent project governance structure. Advise to management, please encourage your engineers to take their job little more seriously. The product is full of bugs and have not been tested thoroughly.

There has never been an issue where I have needed to use the OneLogin support so it would be unfair to rate them anything other than a 10 on their ability to provide support. Like I said its a very basic platform that we use it for with no issues.

When our company used to use RSA SecurID, we had physical security devices for the two-factor security pin. If we wanted to remotely access an account from an unsecured network, we had to carry around an extra physical tag. While this was very secure, it was not convenient and make working remotely unappealing. Additionally, we would have to manually enter the security pin to gain access. OneLogin fixes both these concerns and makes Single Sign On security very easy to use.

• The one big benefit would be time-saving. It is a very convenient platform.
• The access outside of the office also allows me to work at home or in my spare time for additional business that needs to be taken care of.
