About Saviynt
Saviynt Identity Cloud, sold by Saviynt Inc., converges identity governance and administration, identity security posture management and privileged access management. SAP support comes through an SAP-certified S/4HANA connector and an Application Access Governance module with segregation-of-duties rulesets for SAP, Oracle and Workday and certification workflows. Saviynt sells three quote-based tiers, Essentials, Pro and Premium, and includes Saviynt-developed connectors in each tier at no extra cost.
Why buyers compare Saviynt alternatives
No tier carries a public price, and tier boundaries are not detailed publicly. Partner-built connectors are sold separately through the Saviynt Exchange. SAP-specific security is one module inside a large identity governance platform, so a buyer whose only target is SAP still pays for cross-application breadth.
Vendor details and trade-offs
SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance is SAP's own service on SAP BTP, while Saviynt treats SAP as one of many governed systems. SAP IAG keeps governance inside SAP's security and update model. Its non-SAP coverage depends on additional integration work.
Potential strengths
- Runs natively inside SAP BTP, so identity governance stays inside SAP's own security and update model
- Combines access compliance management, SoD remediation and audit-ready reporting in one dashboard-driven service
Trade-offs
- No published price list, so budgeting requires an SAP account conversation before any comparison can be made
- Built around SAP entitlements first, which means non-SAP application coverage depends on additional integration work
- Product reference
- Product documentation
- Billing terms: Not recorded
- Source review: checked Sep 11, 2026
- Vendor confirmation: not confirmed
SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, like Saviynt, is a quote-based platform governing SAP among many systems. SailPoint licenses SAP connectivity as an add-on, while Saviynt includes its own connectors in each tier. SailPoint also bridges to SAP GRC for SoD checks.
Potential strengths
- Purpose-built SAP Direct and SAP ERP connectors cover standalone SAP systems and SAP Central User Administration
- Bridges to SAP GRC for SoD checks and mitigating-control assignment rather than duplicating rule sets
Trade-offs
- SAP-specific connectivity is licensed as an add-on integration rather than included in the base platform
- Pricing runs through the Navigators and Suites model, so there is no published rate to plan against

Pathlock Compliant Provisioning is built for SAP-heavy landscapes, where Saviynt treats SAP as one system on a broader platform. Pathlock runs SoD and sensitive-access checks inside the provisioning workflow before access is granted, and it offers a native SAP ABAP deployment.
Potential strengths
- Fine-grained SoD and sensitive-access checks run inside the provisioning workflow itself, before access is granted
- Provisions across SAP, Oracle, Workday and Salesforce from one workflow rather than a SAP-only console
Trade-offs
- No public pricing is available anywhere on the product or provisioning pages, so every deal starts as a quote
- The native ABAP deployment option narrows its appeal for organizations planning to move fully off SAP-resident tooling
- Product reference

Unlike Saviynt, Microsoft publishes prices, with Entra ID P1 from $7 per user per month and the Governance add-on from $7, both paid yearly. Entra ID Governance has an SAP-endorsed migration path off SAP Identity Management. Its SAP entitlement management for BTP remains in preview.
Potential strengths
- Documented, SAP-endorsed migration path exists for organizations moving off SAP Identity Management specifically
- Lifecycle workflows can issue a Temporary Access Pass and provision into SAP Cloud Identity Services automatically
Trade-offs
- Governance capability is an add-on requiring an existing P1 or P2 subscription, priced separately at $7 per user per month on top of that base tier
- SAP entitlement management for BTP access packages remains a preview capability rather than general availability

One Identity Manager serves enterprises wanting on-premises or hybrid IGA, while Saviynt is one cloud platform. Its certified SAP connector dates to 2003 and tracks each user's most expensive SAP account for licensing. That connector is licensed separately from the base platform.
Potential strengths
- Certified SAP integration dates back to 2003 and now spans R/3, S/4HANA, HCM and business-intelligence modules
- Automatically tracks a user's most expensive SAP account across HR, ERP and BI systems for optimized licensing
Trade-offs
- The SAP connector is a separately licensed module on top of the base Identity Manager platform
- Cloud application coverage requires the additional One Identity Starling Connect license

Omada Identity Cloud is a SaaS IGA platform for enterprises replacing SAP Identity Management, with a published 12-week implementation program. Saviynt instead frames SAP within a broader identity security posture program. Omada's deeper SAP GRC connector operations assume SAP GRC is deployed.
Potential strengths
- Certified SAP ERP connector plus a documented SAP GRC connector cover both provisioning and risk-scoring scenarios
- Publishes a 12-week implementation program aimed specifically at organizations migrating off SAP Identity Management
Trade-offs
- No public pricing is listed; the SAP migration and Identity Cloud pages both route to a sales conversation
- SAP GRC connector operations for provisioning and reconciliation depend on SAP GRC already being deployed
- Product reference
- Product documentation
- Billing terms: Not recorded
- Source review: checked Sep 11, 2026

IBM Verify Identity Governance models SoD around business activities rather than static roles and suits existing IBM Verify customers. It prices through usage-based resource units, where Saviynt quotes three tiers scaled by identity count and type. Some of IBM's SAP adapters carry legacy release cadences.
Potential strengths
- Activity-based governance models access around stable business tasks rather than static roles, easing audit mapping
- Maintains a distinct family of certified adapters for SAP HANA, NetWeaver, UME and SAP HR Feed reconciliation
Trade-offs
- Several SAP adapters, including NetWeaver and the SAP ARCS agent, carry legacy release cadences from the earlier ISVG product line
- No fixed resource-unit rate is published; costs only surface through the online estimator or a sales quote
- Product reference
- Product documentation

Xiting Security Platform is an identity and provisioning layer for SAP-only shops, running on SAP BTP. Saviynt covers SAP alongside Oracle, Workday and other applications. Xiting consolidates local SAP users into global identities, and its non-SAP coverage relies on third-party connectivity.
Potential strengths
- Built specifically around SAP identity processes, with Identity Consolidation, Entitlement Management and a Provisioning Framework in one layer
- Xiting Connector links on-premise and cloud SAP systems, including SuccessFactors and Ariba, into one governed identity view
Trade-offs
- No public pricing appears anywhere on the platform, workflow or provisioning pages
- Coverage beyond the SAP ecosystem depends on the platform's third-party connectivity layer rather than a native catalogue
- Product reference
- Product documentation
- Billing terms: Not recorded
- Source review: checked Sep 11, 2026

Soterion Central Identity Manager targets small and mid-market SAP teams wanting simple joiner-mover-leaver provisioning. StatWharf's Saviynt entry calls that platform more than most mid-market SAP-only shops need. Soterion builds Business Roles from actual usage data. Its scope stays SAP-specific, and no pricing page was found.
Potential strengths
- Business Role concept translates technical SAP authorizations into business-friendly language for provisioning decisions
- Central User Administration covers both production and non-production SAP systems, reducing support effort for password resets and role changes
Trade-offs
- No pricing appears on the product or solutions-overview pages, so cost only surfaces through a demo request
- Scope stays SAP-specific, so organizations needing unified governance across non-SAP applications will need a second platform
- Product reference
- Product documentation
- Billing terms: Not recorded
- Source review: checked Sep 11, 2026
- Vendor confirmation: not confirmed
SafePaaS is a mid-market vendor whose SoD rules follow how SAP authorization objects, organizational levels and derived roles combine. Saviynt applies SoD rulesets for SAP, Oracle and Workday inside a converged identity suite. SafePaaS also offers compliant provisioning and access review.
Potential strengths
- Guidance and rule logic are built around how SAP authorization objects, organizational levels and derived roles actually combine, not just a flat transaction-code list
- Compliant provisioning checks segregation-of-duties impact before access is granted rather than only flagging conflicts after the fact
Trade-offs
- Publicly available detail on packaging and module pricing is limited compared with the larger competitors in this comparison
- SafePaaS carries a smaller analyst and community footprint than the SAP-native or Big Four-backed alternatives
- Product reference
- Product documentation
- Billing terms: Not recorded
