Authlogics Multi-Factor Authentication vs. Oracle Identity Governance vs. Symantec IGA

Authlogics can be used anywhere there is a need for second factor authentication. Moreover, if you care about users and want something easy for them to use then 1.5 MFA from Authlogics is a blessing. However, if you have the need the users should use their device or something they have always then this is not the ideal solution.

Well suited for: 1. Large and medium organisations who have the capacity to invest in IAM roadmap for long term. 2. Organisations with and existing oracle and partner applications ecosystem. 3. Scenario where the user base is on the higher side and organisations looking to scale up in near future. 4. Organisation with complex workflow need in identity management process. Not well suited for 1. Small organisations or even medium ones which have a lesser number of applications 2. Scenarios where custom connectors need to be developed but at the same time turnaround should be quick. 3. Scenarios when features you are looking for are missing, getting them added could take a lot of effort. 4. UI is not very user-friendly and needs to be customised. 5. Takes time to stablise post going live

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.

The only advantage of Google Authenticator is that it is free. Authlogics has many more features than Google Authenticator especially 1.5 MFA which is unique to it. It has official support which comes in handy when users face authentication issues or the radius servers having problems. Moreover, it can be integrated with active directory providing a central place of administration for your users.

I was not involved in the purchasing decision, an enterprise architect who used Gartner as a source was influential

The final contenders were CA and Oracle - Oracle was tedious to implement and maintain while on the other hand CA was easy to implement and maintain and came at a much lower price.
