We deployed WSO2 Identity Server to fulfill our single sign-on (SSO) requirements. Whenever we implement the API Manager, instead of using the API Manager's inbuilt key manager, we use WSO2 Identity Server's key manager due to its additional functionalities.

It allows users to manage their profiles, change passwords, and offers a self-care portal type of functionality. The single sign-on capability integrates seamlessly with various platforms, including Google, Facebook, LDAP, and Active Directory, which supports rapid product launches.
What needs improvement?
Currently, all required features are supported. If new use cases for artificial intelligence arise, it could be beneficial to incorporate those. However, for our current projects, WSO2 Identity Server meets all our needs.
For how long have I used the solution?
We deployed it along with the API for our single sign-on requirements.

How are customer service and support?
The customer support is really good. We receive good support from the OEM, and they provide effective solutions when we raise tickets.

The initial setup was easy.
What about the implementation team?
We are resellers and also handle the implementation.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is currently the same as the API Manager, so it's not surprising. Since we used it primarily for SSO and the self portal, there were no additional pricing concerns.

Enhanced Security and Scalability
WSO2 Identity Server Review
What do you like best about the product?
The WSO2 identification server offers a variety of advantages related to identity and access management. It provides single sign-on (SSO), the OAuth2, and OpenID connect for secure inter-system authentication. Due to its extensibility, the integration with 2nd-party policies is quite straightforward, although the security is further augmented by Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Likewise, WSO2 also strives to remain effective due to scalability with large customers and coupled with strong rule-based coverage. This server enables Federated identity management, and allows usage of other carrier service providers like Google or facebook. In addition, its open character helps cut costs, as well as the pathing, daily patches and some self-healing and optimization. All in all, it is a robust mileage solution for the temperance agency.
What do you dislike about the product?
The difficulties of using WSO2 Identity Server also means that a lot of beginners may have trouble starting up. It can take some time to design and customize it since advanced knowledge is usually required in the process. And although it’s free as an open source software, some of its enterprise features might still need paying support. Also, Big deployments without proper scaling or optimization can impact the performance as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us to easily integrate the SSO and also help us to authenticate the user as well.
Support for IDM

WSO2 Supports most easy to oauth2.0 and SSO. i have used these two till now. Great experience
What do you dislike about the product?
i think more documentation should be available
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it simplifies the authentication process. previously we had to use username/email with password. but now days we can provide oAuth2.0 or SSO to user that will enrich the user experience (UX)
Exploring WSO2 Identity Server: The Pros and Cons of Open-Source Identity Management
What do you like best about the product?
The WSO2 Identity Server has several key benefits. The most catching one is that it's an open-source platform. Its core ones are SSO, MFA, Identity Management, OAuth 2.0, User provisioning and LM, RBAC, and its self-service portal. If I need to conclude about it then it would be that it's a comprehensive, open-source solution for managing identity, access, and security across an ord infra.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every coin has two sides and the same goes for the WSO2 Identity Server while it's a powerful and customizable solution, its complexity, resource demands, and need for technical expertise can be a downside for some users or organizations. On the other hand, if an org that requires a flexible, open-source IAM platform and has the expertise to manage it then these trade-offs may be acceptable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My org was facing struggle with manageing users identities across multiple applications and services. Without centralized control, it's hard to ensure consistency, security, and efficiency in handling user credentials and since WSO2 provides identity to both internal and external applications. So after implementing I this reduces the administrative burden of managing user accounts separately for each system and enhances security by providing consistent access control across the organization. Users benefit from SSO by not needing to remember multiple passwords, improving their experience and productivity.
