Customized and seamless new system
Orchitech won the tender and delivered a solution based on Wren:IDM, the open-source successor to OpenIDM (read our article about the history of Wren:IDM).
The flexibility of Wren:IDM also allowed for the easy implementation of requirements specific to the university environment, including a fully customized user interface for more than 15 thousand active identities. IdM draws data from five source systems and is connected to eight managed systems.
“We now have a completely new system that is more reliable, faster, more predictable, and easier to recover in case of failures. Whether it’s catching up on changes from the source system or verifying and reconciling the state in the target system (e.g., LDAP, AD).“
– Ing. Jan Marek, Útvar správy informační infrastruktury Jihočeské univerzity

80% fewer incidents
„Wren:IDM won us over with its speed and reliability. According to the RT system, we now handle 80% fewer requests. The remaining 20% are mostly just forgotten passwords.“
Pricing transparency
„Orchitech’s solution provided transparent pricing, allowing the university to acquire the new system for the cost of just one year of licensing support for the previous solution.“
