How sweet is your Identity and Access Management (IAM) Suite?

A common identity and access management (IAM) decision-making theme in many organizations seems to focus on selecting a “Suite” of products, but there is some movement in the corporate world to think of creating an identity ecosystem where multiple brands of products may be introduced in order to better solve corporate challenges. Only you can make appropriate decisions around your organization’s needs, and there are situations where a multi-vendor approach makes sense vs. committing to a single suite.

The lure of tighter integration would obviously factor into grouping various products under a single vendor’s suite. However, not every identity and access management product needs to be tightly integrated with every other product. Integration needs often depend on the level of features you require across your various solutions.
