Has enabled bulk onboarding and password rotation while ensuring secure privilege management
I have faced stability issues when upgrading BeyondTrust Password Safe solution. The upgrade process can be lengthy compared to other modules. For example, upgrading the appliance and reconfiguring HA is easier in PRA. However, in BeyondTrust Password Safe, the upgrade activity can take longer, and I have occasionally experienced being stuck during appliance version upgrades, sometimes duplicating the upgrade. Regarding additional features, we have good features in BeyondTrust Password Safe compared to other modules, such as Secret Safe to secure secrets and the check-in, check-out functionality. We already have the main features, but I think it would be helpful if BeyondTrust implemented a heartbeat check feature on the privileged account level. This feature would allow PAM to check the credentials of privileged accounts, indicating if they are correct or not, showing if the heartbeat has failed if they are wrong.

Easy to deploy and offers a good return on investment
CyberArk is the oldest tool and the most experienced one that can be integrated with a lot of interfaces and platforms, which is a huge advantage. A product like senhasegura is very new on the market and is doing very well while also growing very fast. Again, they are very good at integrating with several platforms. The tool is growing and I see a really good future for the tool. The tool has to improve its interface and make the product more user-friendly. In CyberArk, we need more dashboards to monitor things. In senhasegura, again, we need the personalizable dashboards.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, I rate the solution ten out of ten."
"Smart Rules is a nice feature in BeyondTrust. It is a unique feature that BeyondTrust has as compared to other vendors such as CyberArk. With Smart Rules, you can do automatic onboarding of accounts. There are a lot of options and features. For example, you can do onboarding based on different AD attributes. It is a nice feature in BeyondTrust that some of the other PAM vendors don't have. With other vendors, we have to create our own scripts, whereas, with BeyondTrust, we can just use the in-built Smart Rules."
"The CI/CD and REST API are also satisfactory; the solution has a full PAM feature set and they all work well."
"It improved our overall return on investment by at least two-fold and gave us more intelligence on our assets than we expected."
"It reduces a lot of risks of cyber attacks, malware, and ransomware."
"One of the most valuable features is that this is a product designed with enterprises in mind."
"The technical support and customer services are phenomenal."
"BeyondTrust Password Safe provides flexibility for customized application integration."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that everything is good in the tool."
 

Cons

"If there was one thing, it would be having the documentation standardized."
"Adding user behavior analysis to the server or messaging would be beneficial."
"From the client perspective, they usually complain that the RDP session disconnects without error notifications."
"The only feature they could improve is the banners because they aren't informative."
"We weren't aware that the Password Safe virtual appliance runs on a Windows server. As part of our monthly patching process, we ran into an issue. BeyondTrust Password Safe wasn't compatible with the patching we used to put on our server."
"Its documentation is currently complicated, and it is not good."
"If there was one thing, it would be having the documentation standardized. They should keep the documentation consistent. For example, when BeyondTrust updated one of their admin guides, they left out the information on the discovery account requirements, and then over a period of time, we ended up having to search multiple different documents to put together a string of information for a specific topic, which was problematic. It was minor, but it was problematic. Standardized documentation would be the one thing I would suggest."
"I think that BeyondTrust Password Safe could be improved with more testing. In the beginning, they were practically using customers as beta testers. Maybe the product has evolved since I last used it, but if you look at PAM, privileged access management, whatever's out there has already been done. I don't see there being any other enhancements that are being made regarding PAM, except to support more cloud-based applications."
"The tool has to improve its interface and make the product more user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is not cheap—it's a very expensive solution. Very, very expensive compared to the features and functions that they offer."
"The pricing structure is better than the competitors. It's much cheaper than CyberArk. They do the licensing on the basis of assets, not on the number of users. For CyberArk, they base the licensing on the number of users, and they have an expensive model of pricing. BeyondTrust has a cheaper model."
"It has subscription-based licensing. BeyondTrust is three times less expensive than CyberArk."
"The pricing of BeyondTrust is very good as compared to other products. That was the main reason we decided to go with BeyondTrust at first."
"We just pay for Password Safe. Session management is included, but we don't use it. There aren't any additional costs besides the standard licensing fees. We pay for an annual license."
"When you buy Password Safe and perform your initial Discovery, you have all these servers that are added to your assets in BeyondTrust, but you're not using a license until you actually start managing the systems. BeyondTrust's licensing is based on the systems when they're managed, which means when an administrator is able to connect to the server through BeyondTrust with a managed account. There would be a privileged account on the endpoint when the licensing starts. A significant advantage to that is that there are many organizations that want to evaluate their environment prior to automatic management."
"At the time, BeyondTrust was significantly cheaper than CyberArk. Pricing-wise, if I remember correctly, it goes by assets. The pricing was negotiated for our instances based on the number of assets that we onboard into the system. It is a little different from CyberArk, where the pricing is by users. So, it depends. If you have a lot of assets, it can get very expensive."
"The product is quite affordable."
"Compared to CyberArk, the tool is very cheap."
