It is less appropriate if you are not using all of its function and just use it for a particular function undermining its capabilities for example in our organization the use case is primarily restricted to giving staff members safe access to company information and applications which debunks its other features such as compliance and product support that it provides.
Read full review Pros Allows admins to enable single sign-on to additional applications without Imprivata services. After a quick training session with Imprivata, most admins are easily able to enable additional apps. Works well with many device types including Windows, IGEL, Teradici and many Linux based thin clients. High availability and failover. Imprivata's implementation of this was one of the most well thought out and easy to implement of any solutions in our stack. It works very similar to Active Directory, but requires no real config or settings to make it happen. Add an additional appliance and the enterprise is automatically synchronized. If an appliance goes down, client software is aware and automatically switched to another appliance. Read full review It provides an "SSO" type experience for access to applications and data.

Imprivata OneSign was the only truly universal tool that I could find that was adaptable.

The Lenovo product had some advantages over the VMWare product, particularly in the areas of customization of the look / feel and user experience.
