Featured Reviews

Marko Pirc - PeerSpot reviewer
IP Network Engineer at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Key features are roaming, application control and the firewall
We are partners of Aruba as well as sellers and customers. My job in the company is IP network engineer.  The roaming is a feature that works very well. In addition, the application control and firewall features are very good. These are all important features and make the product a valuable one.…
Hariharan Thangasamy - PeerSpot reviewer
Cybersecurity Delivery Analyst at Accenture
Has strengthened privileged access control and improved audit visibility through session monitoring and password rotation
On the identity product side, it is awesome. However, they can improve in the documentation parts. For example, if there is a migration process, I can see the maximum customers are moving from self-hosted to on-premises or from on-premises to the cloud. It would be helpful if they released a generalized document for processes such as migration. A clear overview document would assist us in understanding more about the tool, configurations, and automations to enhance our security. Regarding the initial setup of CyberArk Identity, I faced some challenges. At some points, I could not find proper documentation for deploying, enhancing, or integrating with other components. I could not find the proper documentation in the community portal.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Roaming feature, application control and firewall features."
"I haven't heard of any issues with stability."
"The most valuable feature is the end-user monitoring, and if there is any abnormal behavior on the machine, the administrator will be alerted."
"The roaming is a feature that works very well, and the application control and firewall features are very good, making the product a valuable one."
"The setup, via cloud, is simple."
"I had one machine that I could not use due to an invalid token. They resolved the problem immediately after I reported it, on the same day, within one hour. It is a very good experience."
"CyberArk Identity's ability to safeguard financial services infrastructure is good."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"As soon as it is implemented, it fundamentally changes how users access systems, providing immediate security benefits."
"The UI is very simplified, and the documentation of CyberArk Identity is very crisp and clear."
"From my perspective, platformization is an advantage because it's an experience that big customers can take advantage of, or the platformization part because it's easier to manage and easier to deploy because of that."
"The initial setup is straightforward, and it takes me up to an hour and a half."
 

Cons

"The dashboard could be simplified. You don't have a clear cut view and you have to dive deep into the options to gain some understanding."
"Technical support is unfortunately a little slow."
"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard, where you can get the information with a simple click."
"The packet analyzer needs improvement."
"The user interface could be improved."
"We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."
"The OpenID features could improve in CyberArk Identity."
"CyberArk Identity is kind of expensive."
"When you translate the page from one language to another, it can be a difficult process. The translation isn't always good, and it may have a completely different name. I've noticed this in the English to Spanish translation."
"More integrations would be better."
"Room for improvement for CyberArk Identity might be on the support side, as they constantly improve with new features and remove redundant ones, integrating multiple steps into a single one for easier use; however, this is not just CyberArk Identity, as many vendors start with basic troubleshooting services without recognizing that knowledgeable users often reach out after exhausting those options."
"One area for improvement is the complexity of the learning curve for new users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is based on the number of users. The evaluation license is free, you can download it from the website and try it out first."
"There is an initial license and then there is a subscription needed."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a seven out of ten. The product’s pricing is expensive and is on a yearly basis. You will need to pay around 10,000 GBP for 500 users."
"It's not that affordable compared to Delinea or other products. They're less expensive and allow more customization. For the cost, it is expensive."
"The pricing of CyberArk Identity is competitive."
"In terms of pricing, BeyondTrust and CyberArk tend to be more expensive, with CyberArk receiving an eight out of ten, in this regard."
"CyberArk Identity is an expensive solution."
"We find that the pricing and licensing of this solution is adequate, as compared to the other competitors in the market."
"The solution is cheap and I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
