    Dell ChangeBASE is well suited in migrating an OS to a new version, or 32/64-bit. It's also helpful when virtualizating workstations into Thin Clients for use with Citrix or other thin provisioning services.

    If an organization is looking for a good comprehensive identity management/governance suite that is easy to implement, CA identity manager may be a good/robust product. It is best to understand specific use case for your organization and try out the product before a final purchase decision as is the case with all sw products.

    Cons
    Quest Software
    • Initial setup can be tricky - We needed to contact support for some help.
    • Prior to the latest version, there wasn't an easy way to view all of our results. The new dashboard has rectified this.

    • Bringing on new users and removing existing user when new employee/contractors join or leave an organization can be improved by linking directly to HR module.
    • The slightly complicated GUI makes drill down difficult for a new user.

    Dell ChangeBASE is more costly when compared to Admin Studio, I believe the price was almost double. However, Admin Studio did not provide a comfortable level of support and we felt we were in better hands with Dell's patching schedule. Admin Studio wasn't able to answer our question on when they released software updates and how complex an upgrade would be.

    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.
