"One of the leaders undoubtfully"

3/5

What do you like best about Symantec IGA?

CA IdentityMinder is a very good product, it allows very easily as a user to approve requests and if configured properly it can automate through workflows a lot of the stuff one used to do manually. Being able to write custom adapters for all kinds of endpoints is also a big plus, especially since now it supports Java which is lie an industry standard if you would.

As a deliverer it is quite difficult to setup, it needs quite a few components but being able to determine graphically the approval workflows is definitely a big big plus. Finding orphaned accounts is also quite simple.

Last but not least, self-service functions for end-users and strong password policy enforcement are two other pros of this solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec IGA?

As I said above, IdentityMinder is quite heavy on the infrastructure side and requires a lot of work to set it up quite right. Workflows are necessary tasks to get going to avoid doing everything manually which is quite complicated on IdentityMinder.

Also it is not such a good idea having two different repositories to get two-ways synchronization. Design could be simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Symantec IGA:

If you need Identity Management without integrating in a bigger suite it could really be what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Symantec IGA solving and how is that benefiting you?

User id management and centralization, clean and controlled identities accross all softwares and systems. All users can now use a single user and password without having a specific SSO solution and without having to remeber dozens of different passwords with different expiration dates.

"CA Identity Minder - My Review"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Symantec IGA?

Very secure way to reset user passwords. However we really do not use this product to it's fullest potential. I feel like it could do so much more for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec IGA?

Somewhat slow and not always reliable. We have had multiple instances where the hosted version of CA Identity Minder had become non responsive and we have had to resort back to using AD to perform unlocks and password resets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Implemented CA IdentityMinder as my company's primary identity provider/provisioning solution."

2.5/5

What do you like best about Symantec IGA?

I like the granular control over users' rights based on department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec IGA?

The entire product is not very user-friendly, difficult to implement, difficult to troubleshoot, and difficult to customize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Symantec IGA:

Other products in a similar price point are easier to implement and manage; however, CA does have a few good features compared to others. My best recommendation is to do a side-by-side comparison with a couple of other products to see how each stacks up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Symantec IGA solving and how is that benefiting you?

We implemented IdentityMinder as a better, easier-to-manage alternative to Active Directory for our 35000+ retail store users who did not require the other benefits provided by having an Active Directory account (email, workstation access, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
