Subhadip Pakrashi - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable solution that provides a deeper insight and threat analysis about the network
ArcSight Analytics is used to get a deeper insight and threat analysis about the network. The solution's threat analysis gives a good view of the network. We can then compare those vulnerabilities and CVS scores worldwide and get a good understanding of how likely the network is to be hit. The kind of report ArcSight Analytics gives is really good. ArcSight Analytics is a very scalable solution that is easy to deploy.
Martin Ajayiobe - PeerSpot reviewer
Th password vault feature has proven to be most effective for managing privileged access
One Identity Safeguard now prevents unauthorized access to servers by eliminating privileged passwords and requiring all connections to go through a PAM-authorized process. This means no one, including hackers, can access servers without explicit approval, significantly enhancing overall security. One Identity Safeguard is easy to use with a good partner to support you, and it can be up and running within a few days. We have successfully integrated One Identity Safeguard with cloud targets, and the process was straightforward. One Identity Safeguard has improved our incident response time by 300 percent.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The data collection and the integration with different products are valuable features."
"The correlation engine is good."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users."
"The most valuable features are that you get lots of connectors, which make it easy to log in to my ASM, and lots of prebuilt roles from the company."
"The two most valuable features of this solution are its stability and scalability."
"One of the most valuable features is the alerts."
"Less resource consumption in terms of memory and processing."
"Allows multiple integrations with multiple systems in a stable and flexible fashion."
"All sessions are audited and they are indexed/searchable through the GUI."
"We deployed it into our company for controlling a client's behavior in our data center. It is very useful to control their connections, such as RDP."
"All the features are promising, but we love the reporting feature because we can get each and every report. That's a major compliance requirement. Its reporting is really amazing, and it has made life a lot easier."
"We use the solution’s “transparent mode” feature for privileged sessions. It is very easy because it is only a simple configuration for our users. We don't have to modify our network. We install it, configure it, and it works. So, it is super easy. The rollout for our users is seamless."
"There are numerous valuable data protection features, including the content and information that offer us more scalable protection as needed."
"The Transparent Mode is the number one advantage of the product."
"There is ease of implementation. Compared to other PAM solutions, it is easy to implement and use from an administrator's point of view."
"The transparent mode for privileged sessions is a very good solution."
 

Cons

"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done."
"Their support team could be better."
"ArcSight is not a user-friendly solution and the interface needs to be improved."
"The customer service could be improved, and additional integrations with other APIs could be added."
"I would like to see integration with automation products, such as Phantom Automation."
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"I would like to see orchestration."
"Inactive connections from servers, which are upgraded or downgraded within a VM, should be automatically revoked."
"Even though we have two nodes, there's no way to do an upgrade without taking everything completely offline. It would be nice if they could improve that."
"We've had issues managing accounts and access to some data saved on the servers. Accounts are granted a new working certificate daily. We have an account to do it on APIs online and sync it with that. If the path changes at some point or someone changes the password, I don't know if it's from the Active Directory or what."
"The high availability function of the box requires a long time to switch over from one appliance to another."
"Something for One Identity to look at is having integration guidelines for how to logically group accounts."
"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich. We spoke to our Safeguard reps who have acknowledged that some of the reporting features can certainly be improved and that we're not the only customer who has cited this. There are very little out-of-the-box reporting capabilities. You have to build the queries and the report. I believe in the next release they're going to be addressing this."
"We would like to be able to generate certificate signing requests (CSRs) from the interface for certificates."
"I find it complicated to implement HTTPS monitoring because the documentation is unclear."
"We have not had any issues with the core product itself, but there is an add-on called SCALUS, which is quite critical to the user experience, and that does not work. They have been having issues with that for quite a long time, like months. That is not great at all."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ArcSight Analytics is a bit expensive compared with other tools in terms of licensing costs, training, hardware implementation, and support."
"It can range between $30,000 and $40,000 USD, and can go up to $500,000 and $600,000 USD."
"This solution is expensive."
"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."
"My customers pay a yearly licensing fee for ArcSight Analytics."
"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
"The pricing depends on our perspective, our budget, and, of course, the competitors we are taking into account."
"We bought their other products, so it was not that expensive. It is one of those where the more you buy, the cheaper it is."
"It is more expensive than Secret Server but way less expensive than CyberArk. As a customer, I would like the pricing to be lower, but it has a good price point."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"One Identity Safeguard is expensive and the cost goes up as we scale."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"It is a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. You don't want to get anything too cheap because then you get cheap stuff and cheap support. That really never helps anybody."
"It is cheaper than CyberArk. Its price is fair."
