Omada Identity is an enterprise identity governance platform that manages user access, permissions, and compliance across IT systems.

Summary

Omada Identity is a commercial identity governance platform that manages user access, provisioning, and compliance across IT systems. It runs as a cloud service or on-premises, with its Cloud Application Gateway component deployable on both Windows and Linux, and it exposes a Graph APIGraph APIMicrosoft's unified REST API for accessing data across Microsoft 365 services — mail, calendar, users, files — letting cyber tools query or monitor cloud environments through a single authenticated endpoint. that tracks requests by client for telemetry purposes. It is aimed at identity and access management teams and compliance owners who need to control who can reach which systems and prove it during audits, rather than at developers building authentication into an application. It sits in the identity-access category alongside other identity governance platforms, handling tasks like import scheduling, data warehousing for analytics, and connectivity to systems such as SAP HCM. Launched in 2000, it remains under active development, with 21 releases in the tracked window and its last release 19 days ago.

How Omada Identity helps

Which of my employees have access they no longer need for their current role?

compares current access assignments against role and policy definitions and lists identities holding entitlements that fall outside what their role now justifies

Who approved a given user's access to a sensitive system, and when?

keeps the approval record tied to the identity and the access request, so the history can be pulled for a named user or system on demand

Which pending access requests are waiting on me or my team right now?

surfaces open approval tasks by owner so a reviewer can see everything queued against them

Can I show an auditor that access reviews actually happened for a given period?

retains the record of completed certifications and their outcomes, so compliance evidence can be produced for a specific system or timeframe

Which of my systems is a given identity's access actually coming from?

traces entitlements back through the connected downstream systems and identity data sources feeding the platform, showing where each access assignment originated

Did a recent change to a role or policy alter who qualifies for an entitlement?

re-evaluates identities against the updated role or policy definition and shows whose access assignment changed as a result

Score card

  1. Shipping velocity releases a month, last 12 months
  2. Documentation quality release-notes rubric, 0–100
  3. Breaking-change discipline how rarely a release breaks users, and notice given
  4. Maintenance risk quiet time against its own cadence, maintainers
  5. Innovation & surface new capabilities, API and MCP surface

Five scores for Omada Identity, each built from the releases, notes and API history this site tracks — and, on Researcher and Business, where it stands among every measured tool in its category and how that has moved.

Score cards are part of every paid plan.

See plans →

Each score is 0–100 on a published rubric, derived from data this site already shows. A dimension we cannot measure says so — it is never scored 0 and never enters a rank.

How this is scored
  • Shipping velocity — releases a month over the last 12 months, on a log scale where 16 a month scores 100. Needs 3 releases in the window.
  • Documentation quality — the release-notes rubric published on the analytics page, unchanged.
  • Breaking-change discipline — the share of releases carrying a breaking change (none scores 100, half or more scores 0). Only projects that label breaking changes are measured: a clean record cannot be told from an unlabelled one.
  • Maintenance risk — quiet time measured against the tool's own release cadence (quiet longer than 90 days and three typical gaps scores 0), plus the number of active maintainers and whether contributors are growing, where known. Higher is lower risk.
  • Innovation & surface — new capabilities in the feature ledger this year, API and MCP operations added, and the share of commits that are features: the mean of whichever we hold.
  • Community health (open-source tools only) — each is a direction, not a size: contributors this year against last, the bus factor now against a year ago, and issues closed per issue opened, where steady scores 50, doubled 100 and halved 0; plus the median time to a maintainer's first reply (an hour scores about 100, a month or more 0). A commercial card has no repository and carries none of the four.
  • Documented delivery (commercial tools) — when a vendor's documented new capabilities have slowed against its own baseline, that counts against the overall standing as heavily as two low dimensions. Steady delivery, or too little history to judge, leaves the standing alone; it is never a sixth score.
  • Open-source tools are scored on repository signals; commercial tools on their published changelog. Ranks compare tools within one category and one profile and need at least five measured peers; the overall standing needs three ranked dimensions. Best-in-breed or consolidator is a shape, not a quality, and is never scored.
