Secure remote access has transformed global support and simplified cross-platform collaboration
BeyondTrust Remote Support has good features that are not available in other apps, including rebooting without disconnection and the ALT + CTRL + deletion function. It's easier for data transfer, and multiple people can join a session easily. I think BeyondTrust Remote Support could be improved by being a bit more user-friendly in terms of connecting for a user. I would add that the zoom function allows us to zoom, but you can't particularly move around once you have zoomed in. Additionally, sometimes a remote connection cannot be established for unknown reasons, even if the host machine is clearly online. I have noticed that BeyondTrust ABS can sometimes be challenging to navigate, but it's no more challenging than other competitors.

One of the challenges regarding Saviynt is the lack of material available on the web, as searching on Google or YouTube often yields little information. Advertising Saviynt is necessary because I was not aware of it a couple of months ago, and it is a very helpful product for many organizations. In India, IGA solutions are not widely recognized, and Saviynt can utilize this point by promoting itself in the cybersecurity field. A significant challenge is the lack of people discussing Saviynt in the open market, as the forums provide slower responses compared to platforms like Reddit. Advancements related to AI would be very helpful. Saviynt should provide pricing for their university certifications, which is currently not publicly available. Information about enrolling requires an ID that is not easily obtained, as it can only be acquired through an organization. Some small wishlist features are related to APIs. As I work on projects, I find certain features to be much needed, but at a glance, they may not seem necessary. As I continue working with Saviynt, these small API-related features become apparent and would greatly enhance the experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very secure, and it works very well."
"The file transfer feature allows IT to provide needed drivers and files without interfering with the employee's workflow."
"Bomgar has allowed our service desk (based in India) and our other support personnel based in the US to seamlessly support our users worldwide."
"One of the largest values that we get from Bomgar Remote Support tool is the ability to assist our drivers with their mobile devices. We were unable to do this previously."
"Since using BeyondTrust Remote Support, it is very productive because we can let people join our link and we can help them in a much more efficient way than having them work on a call."
"I like Remote Support's ability to connect to a system without end-user interaction. A support engineer can log in to the system if a user is stuck and doesn't know where to go. This is helpful when conference room computers get locked down and the user can't access the guest OS."
"With BeyondTrust Remote Support, you can share the cell phone screen, and somebody can take a look at it remotely."
"The most valuable feature of the solution concerns our company's main use case, which is for connection to our remote clients."
"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."
"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."
"The first valuable feature is the approach to solving the identity problem, where access risk is the focus of solving any problem, and the second is their deeper integration with enterprise systems like SAP, Microsoft, Adobe, and AWS, which gives Saviynt an edge."
"The solution handles backflow very well."
"Based on my experience working with Saviynt, they deserve a rating of nine because they are very responsive to support."
"It is very easy to use. It addresses most of the trends in identity governance and risk management."
"The repository has many features where you can define primary and secondary owners."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
 

Cons

"​The possibility to integrate a chatbot would take this product to the next level​."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"The licensing is very expensive."
"It could be more compatible with other applications."
"The representative client can be a little buggy sometimes, but overall it works consistently."
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​"
"Technical support for this region can be improved."
"I'd like to see remote support and privileged remote access built into the same product."
"It is time-consuming to troubleshoot issues."
"In terms of improvement, it's really just a matter of them getting more mature. It's a relatively new solution and they probably need to streamline a few of the processes as they mature. But there are not too many problems."
"The product lacks a broad user base which makes it difficult sometimes to find answers to questions about the product."
"The biggest drawback is that for every change you want to make, you have to go back to them and ask for it."
"While one product performed excellently, another was quite complex with code dating back 15 years."
"One of the challenges regarding Saviynt is the lack of material available on the web, as searching on Google or YouTube often yields little information."
"The technical support team's response time could be improved."
"The company needs to do more to establish standard practices within the product itself that are common in the industry."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost currently according to the client is a bit high for them."
"It is expensive. Performance-wise, it is pretty good, but we're less happy with the cost. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. It is also on a per-technician basis. A certain number of concurrent technicians can log in and access all the features."
"The licensing is concurrent and we spend about $10,000. It's my understanding that there aren't any extra costs beyond just the straight licensing."
"I rate Remote Support eight out of 10 for affordability. It's definitely not the cheapest product, but you get a good return on your investment."
"We believe for the money, it is worth what you pay."
"We pay every year for the box, and there are no additional costs."
"The setup is complex. Purchase the remote implementation service and make them slow down and work with you."
"Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
"The pricing is comparable to Azure Entra ID. Kind of the same"
"The solution has a pay-as-you-go licensing model, and you can subscribe monthly or yearly."
"Saviynt's pricing is acceptable and licensing costs are yearly."
"Saviynt's pricing is reasonable."
"The price of the license for this product is quite expensive."
"If you are investing in securing your data and avoiding any non-compliance issues, then yes, it is certainly recommended. To put it plainly, if you're willing to pay fines and aren't concerned about the misuse of data, then there might not be a problem. However, if you intend to safeguard the data of your employees, vendors, and customers, it becomes crucial. In this context, managing data security requires preventive and detective measures, such as enforcing segregation of duties and regularly reviewing permissions. Throughout an individual's life cycle within an organization or customer life cycle, various access permissions are granted. Without taking action on these permissions, there is a risk of exposure later on. If individuals retain access after leaving the organization, it poses a serious security threat. Implementing solutions like Saviynt can address these challenges, ensuring continuous access review, generating reports, alerts, and identifying potential risks."
"If you need to make any changes then there are additional fees."
"The product is less expensive than one of the competitors."
