Md Abdul Hakim - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers solid performance and user adaptability but needs better pricing options and local support
BeyondTrust is a strong, compliance-driven solution with excellent market recognition (Gartner, Peers, etc.), making it appealing for Bangladeshi enterprises. However, some key improvements could accelerate adoption: Areas for Improvement: Pricing & Local Affordability While the product’s capabilities justify its value, cost remains a barrier for many Bangladeshi organizations. Competitive pricing or regional discounts would make it more accessible. Local Support & Partnerships Currently, lack of local partners or trainers creates delays in support, implementation, and pricing negotiations. Establishing a Bangladesh-based support team or authorized resellers would improve responsiveness and trust. Enhanced Onboarding & Training Offering localized training programs (in Bengali/English) and documentation would help IT teams deploy and manage the solution more efficiently. Recommendations for Next Release: Introduce tiered pricing for emerging markets like Bangladesh. Develop a partner network in Bangladesh for faster service and sales. Add simplified dashboards for easier monitoring by non-technical staff. Final Note: BeyondTrust is already a top-tier PAM solution, but addressing these gaps would solidify its leadership in Bangladesh’s growing cybersecurity market.

Easy to install but needs to provide better server management and organization
I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server. Working with 100 or 200 server installations is comfortable, but not thousands. The scalability isn't very good because it's complicated. I would like more organization. For instance, they could add a table that matches an account to many servers at once. There could also be better education services. They don't have any certification program, at least in Ukraine, so the training is complicated and divided into different pieces. Cisco, for example, has a great education program that starts from the basics and progresses to advanced features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management positively impacts the organization by providing more security and benefits, such as ensuring that if modifications are made, we can see where mistakes occurred in the recording video."
"The notable aspect is its ability to capture the application's behavior comprehensively and this thorough analysis is crucial for effective policy management."
"The tool is easy to use and deploy. It has PAM capabilities like privilege access. The solution helps with the management of third parties and vendors. It is an effective solution compared to other alternatives."
"AI adds value by automating the onboarding of assets and using smart rules to assign privileges."
"The implementation is quite easy because the documents are always online."
"The user experience is good, and there are many preconfigured platforms."
"Scalability is good. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten."
"BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management is adaptable across Windows, macOS, UNIX, and Linux."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in having the solution align more with standards. We're always shoehorning the product into the standards. It's not that it doesn't work for standards, it does. But Quick Start Policies are pretty close to what we need. The vendor needs to keep looking at GDPR, 27001, and 27701. That's why our clients buy the product."
"The deployment process should be clarified or made simpler. It would be helpful if the solution had in-app tutorials for users to look at as they progress through the system. Sometimes we get lost and need to go back to check what exactly the function was. There should be small hints around major key functions. It would go a long way in speeding up the deployment process."
"If they improve their price in Bangladesh, since they do not have local partners or local trainers, clients or integrators find it difficult to reach BeyondTrust for support, service, and price quotation."
"If you don't get the implementation right at the outset, you will struggle with the product."
"There is a need for better MQ integration with DevOps and improvements in architecture."
"There are three types of endpoints. If we need to use them in the solution, then we need to purchase the licenses separately. The tool needs to improve its licensing."
"Improvements could focus on adding more AI features to automate processes that are currently manual or challenging for end users."
"The weaknesses are related to the effort required to migrate from existing technologies or having no Privilege Access Management (PAM) at all to adopting technologies like BeyondTrust. It involves changes in processes and can take a significant amount of time, typically six to twelve months."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
"The configuration is difficult."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
"The stability is not very good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is relatively more cost-effective compared to the competing product."
"PowerBroker for a Mac client is three times the price of the Windows version."
"What BeyondTrust was providing was user-based licensing which was a great benefit from the client point of view. Recently, I don't know why, the licensing model has been changed, and that is the reason that they have lost a bit of their edge when it comes to the PAM, against our competition. The asset-based licensing, from the user's point of view, is not beneficial. The licensing should be based on the users. The greater the number of users, the greater will be the load and the greater the scalability problems. I presume that is why the licensing model has changed."
"The product’s licensing is different for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool’s licensing is yearly."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"Price-wise, it is very competitive. In our area, government entities and banks don't go for the monthly payment. It is a headache even for us in terms of finance and procurement to go for monthly payments. Quarterly might be more logical and reasonable, but the minimum that we go for is one year, and sometimes, we even try to compile and give one offering for three years."
"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"It was very expensive."
"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."
