Cross Identity (Formerly Ilantus)
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.

Middesk majorly provides us with real-time access to the data and documents which are required for automating KYB and CIP regulatory compliance, mitigating front and backend risk. In addition, it is the easiest way for financial services companies to verify and monitor their business customers. It for us very much makes the process of onboarding customers very easy.

Usability
Cross Identity (Formerly Ilantus)
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.

UI is not as intuitive as other systems we use. For states that require income tax withholding, some of them require registration with multiple agencies - the UI doesn't easily tell you which login credentials are tied to which agency.

Support Rating
Cross Identity (Formerly Ilantus)
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.

The user experience of this tool must be rearchitected. I am able to observe a lot of lag in the process when initiated. There are sometimes when the tool's navigation becomes difficult. The time taken at times is large to process a request and this can also be highly improved in the future.

ADP Workforce Now offers a module to handle payroll tax registrations. The interface is confusing and the information is hard to find. The service and support are awful - nobody ever knows who can answer tax account questions, they escalate to a different department and promise a callback but they never call back.
