Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, F5, Apache and others in Application Infrastructure."The most valuable feature is its knowledge."
"The solution offers high performance."
"The role and attribute-based access control has been greatly improved."
"DirX Directory is the best feature of the product: a very fast, stable LDAP directory."
"Technical support is very helpful whenever we have any questions."
"All of the features of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager are valuable."
"It enables companies to automate password management on target systems gaining a more secure access management approach."
"I found it valuable that CyberArk Privileged Access Manager can be integrated with PTA (privileged threat analytics), and this means that it will tell you if there's a risk to the logins and signs of risk and if risky behavior is observed. It's a good feature. Another good feature is the CPM (central password manager) because it helps you rotate the passwords automatically without involving the admins. It can go and update the scheduled tasks and the services. At the same time, if there's an application where it cannot do all of these, CPM will trigger an automatic email to the application owners, telling them that they should go ahead and change the password. This allows you to manage the account password that CyberArk cannot manage, which helps mitigate the risk of old passwords, where the password gets compromised, and also allows you to manage the security of the domain."
"The solution helps our developers access internal systems. It also helps us in Privilege Access Management."
"The password management feature is valuable."
"This is a complete solution that can detect cyber attacks well."
"I appreciate the ease of use for support analysts."
"Needs more available consultants and implementation partners."
"An overall modernization of the product is required in order to keep up with newer products."
"The Self-Service Portal is old school and it lacks easy accessibility for users."
"The user interface could be more convenient for people that don't know the tool too intensively."
"The price could be better. It would be better if they developed a better endpoint solution in the next release."
"We found a lot of errors during the initial setup. They should work to improve the implementation experience and to remove errors from the process."
"The PTA could be improved. Currently, companies often have multiple domains and sometimes it's difficult to implement CyberArk in this kind of infrastructure. For example, you can add CPM (Central Policy Manager) and PSM (Privileged Session Manager and PVWA (Password Vault Web Access) for access, but if you want to add PTA (Privileged Threat Analysis) to scan Vault logs, it is difficult because this component may be adding multiple domain environments."
"We need a bit more education for our user community because they are not using it to its capabilities."
"There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's a pretty complex solution."
"They are sometimes not flexible with things. For instance, from one day to another, there might be something that had been done years ago by CyberArk, then they say, "We do not support that." You then have to initiate a complaint and start working with them. Things might become complicated and months pass while you are working with them. Usually, they are good and fast, but sometimes they seem to be blocked with problems, e.g., you will suddenly be working with another team instead of the team that you were working with the day before."
"There is some stuff that we still have not fully integrated, which is our AIM solution. We are having all types of issues with it. I have been working with Level 3 support on it, but otherwise, from a functionality perspective, everything has been working except for the AIM solution."
"The initial setup was a bit complex."
"Currently, in Secure Connect, an end user is required to enter account information manually, and cannot save any of this information for future use."
