A secure solution that needs to improve JumpCloud integration
The tool's most valuable feature is security.  We faced issues while integrating 1Password into JumpCloud.  I have been using the product for more than two years.  1Password is stable.  My company has 200 users for the product.  The tool's deployment is easy.  The tool's pricing is not too…

Effective for password rotation policies triggered by audit requirements, it helps maintain compliance standards and seamless integration with third-party tools
The "App to App" feature has been most impactful. It allows secure communication between applications without requiring direct user access, which is crucial for several applications. Additionally, working in the finance department, we are heavily focused on enhancing audit reporting and compliance. So, the GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) capabilities of Delinea Secret Server have also been crucial for us. We implemented a custom reporting system that can automatically send reports to auditors daily, weekly, or according to your organization's needs. We also upgraded the audit role within Secret Server, allowing auditors to access and analyze the reports directly. Additionally, Secret Server provides comprehensive logging capabilities. Auditors can see what data users access, their access levels, and their activities, including check-in and check-out times. Furthermore, Secret Server helped us manage privileged, elevated access, which we call "K2K." As the lead for this project, I could identify users with the highest access levels and implement specific policies to monitor their activity on servers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's most valuable features are its password management security and cloud firewall."
"The tool's most valuable feature is security."
"The most valuable feature of 1Password is the one that automatically generates a password and MFA for me when I try to enter them, instead of going and hardcoding it."
"1Password is very secure for storing all my passwords, keys, and secrets for work."
"1Password helps to generate unique passwords that you do not need to remember."
"The ability to give some groups access to different kind of databases with the storage of a password is the most valuable feature."
"The privileged access management module is the most reliable feature."
"The solution's stability is flawless."
"I find it really easy and computer confident, and the experience with the product is really good. Additionally, customizations are easy."
"Its technical support is good."
"The tool has many models. The tool also has a good cloud version. Also, the customers need not control any components on the solution side. The product's licensing model is also good since customers can choose a price that is most useful for them. The solution also supports password management for the users in your organization."
"It is a stable solution."
"The product provides a native user experience without requiring users to install additional software or agents."
 

Cons

"1Password should check and alert me if my information, such as my password or email address, has been sold on the internet."
"Sometimes it fails to appear automatically, and you have to call it manually."
"We faced issues while integrating 1Password into JumpCloud."
"The service could be improved incrementally to enhance programmatic access to the vault."
"I would improve the search engine of 1Password to make it clearer or less confusing."
"I don't know what kind of a cryptographic it uses to encrypt the password but it should be one of the stronger ones. Some of the cryptos have been accessed by hackers."
"The UI needs improvement because the interface is a little clumsy."
"I'd prefer a better commercial model that includes partners and options for consulting around it. Where I've worked with my customers, we've only been able to use their professional services, and that has been a risk and constraint."
"We could definitely use some help with API tokenization. If we had a way to store tokens that would be fabulous."
"When Delinea upgrades the tool, it rejects our password, saying that it is not compliant and strong."
"Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."
"I would like to see the shadowing of ongoing terminal sessions (Remote Desktop Mirroring)."
"There could be tweaks here and there. For example, instead of going to one main function to do this and another main function to do that, the solution could remap the user interface so that a person only has to go through one function. The way that function branches off should make a bit more sense."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Users have to pay around five euros per year for the solution."
"The tool's pricing is not too cheap or expensive."
"There is an annual license fee per user and the price is fair."
"Compared to other solutions, Delinea Secret Server is competitively priced but on the higher side."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with ten being a high price."
"There is an annual license needed to use Delinea Secret Server."
"In the Nigerian market, the adoption of Delinea depends largely on an organization's budget. If they have the financial capacity, they might consider Delinea as a viable option."
"It is very expensive, and its price should be lower."
"The price of this solution is good."
"The solution is low-cost than other vendors."
