Improved security measures with some support response delays
For BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, the best features are the security measures we have, such as not sharing any credentials with employees in the bank sector. For security purposes in BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, when employees are working in the system, we can make a recording of the video, showing the modifications and configurations they made, allowing us to see everything. The recording option is available. 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.

Effective threat protection with room for cost and usability improvements
There are some drawbacks that I would mention. To be frank, enterprises always look for cost benefits, so Kaspersky could implement some price benefits. Additionally, regarding know-how, if I am an experienced person it's fine, but when someone novice is working with it, they need information about why certain actions are required. Security is a field that is very vast, and implications are not known to everyone. In future updates, a quick walk-through and know-how features would be beneficial, such as information text at relevant places. This will increase usability. Feature-wise, an impact analysis would be a really good addition.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution can do so much; it's quite flexible, a great tool, and it's nice to have administration tools without having to remember the password because you just have to click on whatever you need to do and you get temporary access."
"It reduces major vulnerabilities by removing local administrator privileges."
"The privileged access management into sensitive systems is very valuable. That includes control from the endpoint all the way through to the managing of passwords and credentials that are used by the person to access the sensitive information. It's very useful, because nobody ever really maintains passwords for those endpoint systems. It's maintained in the Dropbox password file."
"PowerBroker allows elevation of required actions or application and eliminates the need of user having full administrative access."
"The solution is definitely stable, and within the last eight years we have been able to satisfy the most demanding customers in the world, whether they have 10 users, 10,000 users, or even 100,000 users, because it is scalable."
"The implementation is quite easy because the documents are always online."
"For a Windows/Linux/Unix mixed environment, it is a good product to management privilege account passwords to prevent security breaches."
"Password management, as it is a core function; passwords are a frequent hacking point."
"The most valuable feature of Kaspersky Security for Internet Gateway is the antivirus."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its ease of use and operation efficiency."
"The password thing is very good, and the overall URL protection."
"Kaspersky Security for Internet Gateway has positively impacted our organization by helping us control unwanted attacks and limiting our exposure to risks."
"I would recommend it to others as it's easy to use."
"When it comes to threat detection, it is very strict with file downloads and uploads. It sends reports and quarantines suspicious files."
"The most valuable aspect for me is the user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the antivirus and child protection features."
 

Cons

"Its feature for establishing workflows needs improvement."
"There is room for improvement in having the solution align more with standards. We're always shoehorning the product into the standards."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"It keeps on breaking every now and then. It is not yet mature."
"How the accounts are presented in the solution's UI can be improved."
"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."
"Technical support for BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management should be an enterprise edition; whoever is working in the bank sector for security purposes needs to be 100% secure on the servers."
"Reports to the end user."
"The customer support of the product is an area with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"It might be helpful to have notifications on mobile devices, especially if the same browser profile is used on both mobile and laptop."
"I believe the absence of a procedure is the main issue."
"In different locations, they're priced differently, but that's mainly marketing rather than the product features."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the pricing."
"The initial setup of Kaspersky Security for Internet Gateway is complex. The full deployment took approximately two weeks."
"When I do a configuration, I do not know what implication it will have downstream."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PowerBroker for a Mac client is three times the price of the Windows version."
"I'm sure everyone should have the cluster environment, which means more expensive, anyway, cheaper than the other solutions."
"Its pricing and licensing are okay. We were in the perpetual model when it was on-prem, and now, with the SaaS service, we have a subscription model. As a customer, I would always like to see a lower price, but it seems to be priced at the right model currently, and we are trying to get the maximum benefits out of it."
"It was very expensive."
"The solution's pricing is high."
"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."
"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."
"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"I am okay with the pricing."
"I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being very expensive and one being cheap. It's neither too cheap nor too expensive."
"Personal computer licenses can be expensive if you were to scale the solution extensively. However, large companies will most likely use Endpoint solutions and not this one."
"It is expensive."
"The cost is relatively high, and as a licensed product, there are restrictions on the number of users permitted per license."
