Oracle Identity Management vs. WSO2 Identity Server

Oracle Identity Management is a great product, especially when working with multiple directories. It is best suited in a company that has multiple business divisions catering to different objectives. And not all companies would be able to utilize all of its features, especially if the users base is too small or the business model is restricted into one area.

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

• The entitlements catalog was not robust enough for our needs. We ended up keeping an internal system to catalog our entitlements. This meant more integration code was necessary than we'd like.
• We evaluated the access request functionality, but again, it was not flexible enough and had a bunch of strange quirks (unnecessary button presses, etc).
• OIA was pretty slow and users would complain about it repeatedly. We tried working with Oracle to improve the performance, but didn't get anywhere after months of troubleshooting.

• 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.

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.

It's Oracle. Highly expensive and limited options

• Oracle Identity Management is a great product, catering to the business needs.
• Not all features of the OIM suite are applicable to all companies, thus having an impact on ROI.
• Overall it is a great product that handles a large company's identity management requirements like a pro.

• 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.
