Strong security with room for enhancements in AI analytics

We integrate with our Active Directory regarding the role-based access controls in BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access.I have not yet utilized the endpoint least privilege management feature in BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access. There is a ready integration guide available for BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access, so there are no major issues. All API integration is available to integrate with. More organizations are moving towards cloud infrastructure with BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access. They are choosing this because they do not want to manage their on-premises and other hardware infrastructure. As we are not working with other vendors, I would rate BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access a 10 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product has improved remote support capabilities since it works fine."

"The visibility of the solution's Vault works as it is supposed to: out-of-the-box for domain accounts, endpoints, and local accounts associated with discovery jobs."

"One of the features that I really like about it is the ability to set a start date, time, and end date for the access. For example, you can set the access for a person from tomorrow, Monday, or Tuesday and ending on a specific period of the day or a specific date. That's really quite helpful."

"Based on the feedback from my colleagues who have never complained about the technical support, I would say that the product's support team is good."

"It provides us the ability to get an end-user back up and running and keep them running efficiently."

"I like the enterprise credential manager. It's a connector that sits in PRA and tests the credentials for the end user with a process that will clean the password. This is one of PRA's primary features and simplifies user onboarding. There aren't many restrictions or complications. We can add the user while only opening one port, which is more than enough to access the PRA server. Every organization requires only four critical servers out of a hundred and some 50 production servers."

"The features I find most effective in BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access include the advantages of password safe for anyone using their web server designing or applications."

More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access pros

"PAM360 stands out due to its remote session recording capabilities, which allow us to track who accessed which server and identify any changes."

"We can use it remotely as well."

"My advice would be, if you want a cost effective solution and very competitive pricing, you should go with this product."

"PAM360 stands out due to its remote session recording capabilities, which allow us to track who accessed which server and identify any changes."

"Deployment is very quick, and only a one-time installation process is required for ManageEngine PAM360."

"ManageEngine PAM360 is an easy-to-use solution with competitive pricing compared to brands like Delinea and CyberArk."

"Our clients use this solution for the rotation of keys and passwords. It is a part of logs."

Cons

"Its access process for third-party vendors needs to be simplified."

"The integration client, backup solution, and SSO setup and provisioning could be improved. There isn't any documented or supported user provisioning currently, which slows down the processes of onboarding and assigning permissions. I would like to see this improved soon."

"One of our gaps or pain points is having multi-factor authentication at the endpoint and using the PRA password injection from BeyondTrust, which does not work in our environment. We can only have MFA at the login of BeyondTrust to check out the password. Therefore, we can't meet our security requirements of having it on the endpoint."

"At the moment, I don't see any major problems with it. If anything, they can just change the look and feel of the login screen because it looks too simple to me."

"In terms of the ability to automate the creation of new accounts within it, it's still a bit laborious."

"I would love to have a web console and the ability to use the smart card with the web console to provide remote support. If you are on a computer that doesn't have the Bomgar console, you should be able to use the web console to provide support. That's the only thing right now. A web console is nice when you're jumping into a computer, but if you need to elevate the privileges, you currently can't do it with the smart card. If they could figure that out, that would be money."

"It would be very nice if it has an enterprise vault."

"Changing your password should be simplified, and there should not be a charge for it."

More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access cons

"ManageEngine PAM360 could benefit from more automation activities and a user interface change."

"If you want a cost effective solution and very competitive pricing, you should go with this product."

"PAM360's dashboard needs improvement for clearer presentations, similar to ManageEngine products like AD audit plus and Password Manager Plus, which offer a clearer picture."

"I would rate the scalability at five out of ten. It's average."

"There could be improvement in latency and accessing resources for the product."

"I would rate the scalability at five out of ten. It's average."

"I don't see any features associated with multi-factor authentication in ManageEngine PAM360."

"PAM360's dashboard needs improvement for clearer presentations, similar to ManageEngine products like AD audit plus and Password Manager Plus, which offer a clearer picture."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I wish it was a little bit cheaper, but when a product is as solid as this, I understand what the cost does. It helps them to make sure it stays that way. If you want a reliable, solid product, you're going to pay more."

"PRA's pricing is competitive."

"Don't get into a situation where you are licensing per desktop or per person until you fully understand the licensing."

"PRA was one of the cheapest solutions that we evaluated."

"Though the solution was a bit expensive, the overall pricing was average."

"My client found the solution a bit expensive but considering their use case and requirements, they didn't have any other choice. As far as I know, implementation and licensing are the only costs."

"Its price is pretty good for the features and services that it provides. It is not outrageous. I'm not aware of any additional charges or anything like that."

"The price is pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for and this is a great product."

More BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access pricing and cost advice

"Though I don't have the exact numbers related to the cost of the solution, I can say that it costs somewhere around INR 7,00,000 for ten licenses."

"The product is less expensive than one of its competitors."

Overview

BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access (formerly Bomgar Privileged Access) lets you secure, manage, and audit vendor and internal remote privileged access without a VPN.

Privileged Remote Access provides visibility and control over third-party vendor access, as well as internal remote access, enabling your organization to extend access to important assets, but without compromising security.

Features include:

- Privileged Access Control: Enforce least privilege by giving users the right level of access.

- Monitor Sessions: Control and monitor sessions using standard protocols for RDP, VNC, HTTP/S, and SSH connections.

- Reduce the Attack Surface: Reduce attacks by consolidating the tracking, approval, and auditing of privileged accounts in one place and by creating a single access pathway.

- Integrate with Password Management: Inject credentials directly into servers and systems with just one click, so users never need to know or see plain text credentials.

- Mobile & Web Consoles: Use mobile apps or web-based consoles anytime, anywhere.

- Audit & Compliance: Create audit trails, session forensics, and other reporting features by capturing detailed session data in real-time or post- session review, and provide attestation reports to prove compliance.

Comprehensive privileged access management solution
Privilege misuse is a top cybersecurity threat today that often results in expensive losses and can even cripple businesses. It's also one of the most popular attack vectors among hackers, because when successfully carried out, it provides free access to an enterprise's underbelly, often without raising any alarms until the damage is done.

ManageEngine PAM360 empowers enterprises looking to stay ahead of this growing risk with a robust privileged access management (PAM) program that ensures no privileged access pathway to mission-critical assets is left unmanaged, unknown, or unmonitored.

PAM360 is a comprehensive solution for businesses looking to incorporate PAM into their overall security operations. With PAM360's contextual integration capabilities, you can build a central console where different parts of your IT management system interconnect for deeper correlation of privileged access data and overall network data, facilitating meaningful inferences and quicker remedies.
