Oracle Identity Governance vs. Transmit Security CIAM Platform

Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) is great if you have a huge organisation and a lot of users to support. It integrates particularly well if you want SSO and already use Oracle's business suit applications such as Oracle Business Intelligence. One of the most important things to keep in mind while deciding to go ahead with OIM is whether or not you have enough time, money and resources for its implementation because it can be very challenging and expensive.

Transmit Security hides nicely in the taskbar until needed. It works behind the scenes. It is seamlessly integrated into the Macs functionality. Transmit Security has helped us keep our systems secure while helping make our job easier all round. We would not change it for anything else now. It is our go-to FTP client.

Overall good product and somewhat reliable when used in a specific manner. However, there are cons like unending bugs and no well-defined upgrade path. The product could have been more flexible and lite in terms of organisational infra needs. OIM is a robust product but other vendors are almost on-par now.

It has seldom been we needed any support with Transmit Security, but when we did, they were on it. We got help in minutes rather than hours or days like other suppliers in this marketplace. Indeed, their support convinced us in the beginning that we had made the right decision.

OIM is a leader in the identity management space and appropriate for specific organisations and use cases. Where its competitors have an edge over cost and overall look and feel of product, OIM offers Oracle's vast experience of enterprise security products and compatibility with infrastructure applications. It melds well with other Oracle security products like OAM and OAAM. When cost is not a problem and you are ready to invest your resources for long-term OIM is preferable. It has its pros and cons as explained earlier, and should be selected on basis of specific needs.
