Straightforward to set up and has VPN and load-balancing features, but it could be more scalable, and its web center could be better
There's usually no update for 360 Safeguard. The developer doesn't update it a lot. I have two security solutions. One is 360 Safeguard, and the other is Kaspersky Total Security, where I have a Kaspersky server that controls the network. I'd tell small business owners that 360 Safeguard is okay, but it cannot be suitable for a medium or large business with many users. The solution is good, but it cannot control an extensive network. My rating for 360 Safeguard is seven out of ten. It's eighty percent suitable for small businesses, sixty percent for medium businesses, and it cannot be installed for large businesses. That still depends on your requirements, but it's unsuitable if you have a big business.

Helps secure the infrastructure and control users with admin rights
There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies. For instance, if we need to stop PowerShell scripting, we have to create a different policy for that. Being able to create a sub-level policy within a top-level policy would be good. Currently, no user-based policy option is available inside the EPM console. We can only create computer-based policies. The database is available, but there is a drawback in not being able to create local groups on the EPM console. We only have to depend on Active Directory. This limits infrastructure security as we depend on the Active Directory team to manage user groups. If they remove any users, we lose control. If we could create groups locally and block them or set specific policies, we would have more control. Local endpoint management is missing from the EPM site. Moreover, there is an issue with policies not running as expected when we make enhancements. We have to find multiple ways to whitelist applications or enhance policies.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product's initial setup was very straightforward."
"I like that it's stable and easy to access."
"What I found most valuable in 360 Safeguard is its VPN feature. I support remote sites, so I use a VPN."
"What sets CyberArk apart is its continuous innovation, staying ahead of the competition."
"We did immediately begin to see results when using CyberArk."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is entirely cloud-based, so no further upkeep is required."
"It has drastically reduced the attack surface for local administrative rights and the chance of escalation of privilege. We've removed, at this point, close to 98 percent of the local administrative accounts on workstations. If there were an incident, it would stop at that point and we'd be able to know."
"The most valuable feature is that their database is completely encrypted and protected with multiple layers."
"It offers great performance."
"The product is stable."
"Their customer support was excellent."
 

Cons

"It could be more secure and compatible with other software."
"The web center in 360 Safeguard could be better, so this is its area for improvement. 360 Safeguard could be more scalable, especially for big businesses."
"In 360 Safeguard, there is something called the menu or advanced menu support, a process that I find to be a little bit awkward."
"One area that has room for improvement is in managing the credentials for network devices."
"CyberArk should consider whitelisting important applications like PowerShell and DLL that are currently not allowed due to some malicious content."
"The product needs a streamlined user interface; improvements to the user interface can enhance user experience and make the solution more intuitive to navigate."
"It is hard to deal with technical support if you are not certified."
"There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies."
"The solution is very expensive."
"The management of Privilege Access is not satisfactory."
"The product's threat protection and defense capabilities need enhancement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I bought a license — it's quite cheap. It's definitely cheaper than an American product. It costs approximately $40 a year."
"360 Safeguard is low-priced. It only costs $300."
"The cost for CyberArk is very high."
"Pricing depends on how many devices you use. Right now, on-premise, it costs us a little, but it's worth it. It seems like the cloud solution is much more expensive. We got this solution one year ago, and it's like we bought the solution, and now they are not going to support it on-premise anymore. We are in the implementation phase, and we missed this, and we already paid for the licenses. This is wasted time from my perspective, and CyberArk should be more customer-friendly."
"I think that it was in the range of $200,000 that had to get approved."
"I believe it's quite a reasonably priced solution. It's not very common to use CyberArk because it's a niche solution, but customers who are willing to control administrative accounts are willing to pay this money."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has a very high price, so it's a one out of ten for me in terms of pricing."
"It is an expensive solution."
"We pay about $17 per user."
"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."
