We performed a comparison between BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management and Trend Micro Apex One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about CyberArk, Delinea, BeyondTrust and others in Privileged Access Management (PAM)."What I liked about this solution is that it can also integrate for tracking malicious use or sending analytics to a host that can process them. I don't know if CyberArk, Centrify, or Thycotic can do that. The analytics was something the client really wanted, and they already had BeyondTrust. It is very scalable. The agent on the workstation is very thin, and the processing power required on a server is nothing out of the ordinary. It is also very stable and easy to deploy."
"Scalability is good. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten."
"BeyondTrust has very good integrations with quite a lot of security vendors such as SailPoint, IBM, FortiGuard, Splunk, etc."
"I'm a BeyondTrust partner and I have multiple deployments, four or five banks right now. The features that give us quite an edge compared to what our competitors are offering - like IBM or Thycotic - are the Session Management, that is quite a big one; also the recording of keystrokes. In addition, there is the password vaulting and state-of-the-art Password Management, which I haven't seen in other products."
"The features related to application elevate is amazing. It helped the company to remove almost all admin local users."
"Reduces major vulnerabilities by removing local administrator privileges."
"One of the valuable features is the absence of any local user in a unique system. All users are defined in the AD; communication is only between Unix and AD."
"The implementation is quite easy because the documents are always online."
"Stability is okay."
"Apex One offers a lot of bang for your buck. It includes an antivirus solution, DLP, app control, and all the other features found in endpoint protection solutions like Microsoft Defender. Many other solutions require additional licenses for different operating systems, but Trend Micro software bundles everything."
"The solution offers quick and timely updates."
"We have found the reports to be most valuable."
"The most valuable features are the vulnerability protection and virtual patching."
"The solution offers good community support."
"When comparing to other products the console is much more user-friendly, and it's easy to implement."
"The antivirus itself is also lightweight. It does not hamper the performance. It is not resource-hungry. It does not impact the overall performance of the device. It is just there, and it is easy to use."
"What's bothering me, which is true of all of them, is that sometimes, the error codes that come up don't necessarily get reflected in the searches within their support sites or they're out of date. I would rather search by an error code than type in the text and search for it by text because the error code means that it is programmatic, and it is known. It might not be desired, but it at least is not unexpected. If you don't have an error code, you just get an anomalous error, and if it is lengthy, it can be difficult to search and find the specific instance you're looking for. This is something I would like all of them to improve. BeyondTrust, CyberArk, Centrify, and Thycotic could do some improvements in staying up to date and actually allowing you to search based on the product version. They are assuming that everybody is on their way to release. They put out a new release, but it is not reflected on the support site, which makes no sense to me, especially when they revamp all the error codes. They all have been guilty of this in some way."
"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."
"The help system should be improved to provide a quick help guide with each tab within the solution, which explains what each particular function does."
"How the accounts are presented in the solution's UI can be improved."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"It should support XWindows Remote Desktop Access protocol for Linux/Unix."
"Its feature for establishing workflows needs improvement."
"The program updates are very rare and the frequency is too far apart to take care of bug fixes and adding the latest features."
"Apex One could improve endpoint patching. For example, Kaspersky can download Microsoft updates and install them. Having that feature in the cloud application would help a lot."
"It could be more customizable."
"Some of the updates still require a complete reboot of the system."
"The customization has room for improvement."
"The solution could improve security. It is important to always keep the organization secure."
"Lacking features, not yet fully mature."
"We had a few occasions where we had to turn off our clients' computers to upgrade the drivers."
"The time required for Apex One to notify us of detection in the central console should be reduced."
