    Likelihood to Recommend
    OpenText
    Suited for complex identity journeys involving multiple identity constituents like customers, employees, extended enterprise users (e.g., agents, partners, vendors). OpenText Identity and Access Management (IAM) Platform, formerly Covisint, is not suited for on-premises-based IAM implementations.

    If your systems are using standard authentication models then it is well suited. OpenID Connect, SAML 2.0 etc are all supported.

    • Overall, the product works well but does take time and effort to implement in highly complex environments. However, I do not believe this is unique to WS02.

    • WSO2 works well when you need specific user sign-up information and allows you to then tailor the access, for example, to the job role or area of discipline. We use this to tailor the learning offered to a user upon initial login.
