Keeper vs. OCI Identity and Access Management

I can only think of scenarios where Keeper is well-suited, in my experience. I work in small business (i.e., sole proprietor, 1 employee) environments and Keeper is well-suited to my needs. I imagine it would also be well-suited to multi-user environments, but would require a great deal more management and organization in such environments.

Scenarios where IDCS is well suited:

• Oracle Identity Cloud Service is well-suited for organizations that require a centralized approach to managing user access and authentication across multiple applications and services.

• Organizations with strict compliance requirements

Scenarios where IDCS might be less appropriate:

• Organizations with limited customization requirements

• Ease of use. User find it simple and intuitive to use and I find they rapidly adjust to the software with minimal training.
• Single-sign-on. Super important and really makes things simple for the users and easy to manage for us in the IT team.
• Sharing features. We knew sharing was a key component of our password management solution. Keeper makes it easy for users and simple to administer.

Incentivized

• Restrict access to the applications outside our organization network.
• Multiple IDP configurations make it easy for us to authorize access.
• The adaptive security feature lets us know high-risk users.

• I find that Keeper could use some work with their desktop interface, a sleeker and friendlier user interface would definitely benefit them.
• Keeper doesn’t have a Security Dashboard, which makes it more complicated to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your passwords.
• The automatic web form filling is somewhat limited at the time, but im sure they will improve it soon.

• The web interface has gotten better over the years, but some functionality is still being handled via shell commands.
• SSL setup can be simplified into one place instead of having to navigate to multiple pages and update different key-stores or wallets.
• Migrating and or replicating between versions can be more intuitive with a side-by-side comparison of schema/attributes.

It's just easy to use, plain and simple. It has the complexity and user-interface that gives you confidence in its build but the ease-of-use that keep things from getting too complicated. A huge plus when you have to onboard new members of the team or summer interns when you need them to step in and make orders on your behalf.

Oracle cloud services meets most of our needs. I hope in the future we could look at more of the OIG functions included so we could move away from needing to stand up that component.

Because it is so good. It always works, has not crashed even in 3 years; I have a lot of data in it (never any problems).

We have contacted Oracle support a few times regarding admin access queries and every time we received prompt replies and help. In my experience, we only contacted 2 times in 3 years. I think it's because of ease of use and manageability. Also, Oracle Identity Cloud Service customer care team was pretty fast and helpful.

I have used the Apple cloud, but if you forget your password into that, once again, you’re at the mercy of calling customer service. With Keeper, you can use the thumbprint option to log on, and there’s any of your needed passwords. It’s fast and simple, and you don’t have to wait online to unlock the app you’ve locked yourself out of.

I believe we had a quite fair RFP listing all our complex integration and being key on utilizing existing investments, the Oracle product met our requirements and the local partner presented that very well. With such combined synergy, the offering was appealing to be the winning bid and therefore Oracle Identity Management was selected.

I hope at some point we could get away from needing to "bring our own" licenses and just have a unique user login rate.

Oracle provided various services we could take advantage of to get the environment configured correctly without needing to hire contractors.

• The spreadsheets and printed papers being passed around the office with passwords on them have gone! This is a huge security hole plugged.
• Users actively use the software which says something - it is easy to use and intuitive. When software is not intuitive, it tends to not get used.
• It gives IT control over who does what with passwords, and while difficult to quantify it is certainly a dramatically positive impact on the organization.

• I'm not sure we've seen actual ROI by implementing this product. We had many efforts to look at alternatives and to evaluate newer versions (OIG). In the end, we decided to replace it with Sailpoint.
