We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"The video logs help us to identify any misuse of privileged accounts.""The best part of this product is the administrator convenience. The portal is very user-friendly. An administrator can use it very easily.""Logging, particularly screen recording for Windows RDP sessions. Also, command-logging for SSH sessions. This really helps us to see what commands/changes have been executed in a particular service at a given point of time, and by whom.""For compliance, each change I do, in each of the servers, is clearly recorded. We recently faced an audit and this was an awesome feature. Even our auditor had praise for it saying, "This is really a good feature."""The notification alert feature where the network admin gets notified of probable malicious activity is the most valuable feature.""After storing the administrator password in this password vault of the solution, the solution can automatically go and change the password based on the defined frequency with the defined complexity.""One important feature is the administrator access, mainly for Windows machines as well as Linux machines. It is important for us because there is accountability associated with each user ID. And the recordings are also helpful.""That dashboard is okay."

"For the recertification and segregation of duties, it's easier to know all the information about our employees. If we need to delete some information, we can do it from a central point, then it can be deleted on all our searches. This is very good for GDPR.""With this product, we been able to bring together HR, IT, and lifecycle management. It is very helpful for managing the Joiner/Mover/Leaver process. We also use it for compliance on all the audits which are around.""This is almost a complete solution for us.""It brings simplicity into complex matters.""The solution is flexible because you can realize the customer needs. Therefore, it is easy to upgrade specialized things. It provides the flexibly, so you can implement customers' use cases.""The most valuable features are centralized Identity Management, robust Access Governance, and One Identity Manager workflow automation.""In terms of what I found most valuable in One Identity Manager, it's the only product where the workflow and the catalog can be configured on roles or by business people. You don't need to know the technology at all to configure that, so this is the product's biggest advantage as well as its strongest feature. One Identity Manager is also business-oriented and IAM administrator-oriented.""The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution."

Cons
"For the in-house built applications, they need to provide good, solid access through their portal.""ARCON Privileged Access Management is not a user-friendly solution, and the application flow from one screen to another is very complex.""We would like to see support for privileged accounts used in web-based systems like Blue Coat Secure Web Gateway, VMware ESXI management tools, etc.""The solution lacks to offer a governance mechanism for operational technology assets.""I would like for it to be dependent on Windows as opposed to Linux.""I'll provide feedback on additional features after the project is completed. I think it would be better to comment on that after the implementation is finished.""The deployment process is a bit complex because no document is available.""It should support the SQL Always On platform with FQDN name instead of IP."

"It is particularly slow if you are using it in a large organization.""The system role manager, or some of the roles that are inside Identity Manager, are limited to one user. It would be more flexible if these responsibility roles could be attached to many people.""The user interface needs to improve.""The policy and role management features are a bit hard to scale. The whole model for who can do what and how to set it up is not so well-governed for a larger organization. The demos are always shown for a 100 or a 1000 people, but when it is a large number, it is quite difficult to maintain.""Improvements in documentation would be beneficial.""The product's GUI could be more user-friendly.""I would like it to have an easier integration with phones.""The performance could be better. I also think One Identity could improve its documentation for developers. Many of One Identity's features aren't fully documented. We don't have enough information on how to use them."
