Helps us secure our endpoints and prevent attacks, but it can be improved by allowing computers to be excluded from policies.
All of the features are valuable. They control applications for users, like preventing users from elevating applications. You can use it to strip users of their local admin rights and, at the same time, elevate applications for them and give them access to elevated applications. Hence, administrative rights are unavailable for domain accounts which are the juicy ones for attackers because they can use them to move laterally from one host to another. Therefore, attackers can no longer strip a user's near right, but at the same time, they can elevate the user from access to the application and do their jobs without having issues elevating applications.

Scalable access governance system that removes manual approvals and makes teams more productive
We use this solution for identity governance and to understand who has access to what and whether that access should be granted or not. We also use it for access to recertification automation which provides a complete report of who has what access in the organization at the press of a button. We…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Users can scale the solution."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager are password management, session management, onboarding rules, platform customization, and safety management."
"I like that you can remove the admin rights from the user's computer and have control over the environment. That means you can delete the local admins and grant them proper privileges with the console. So, they will get proper permissions for applications they need, but we don't have to do it. In the domain where we don't have control, the user can only do specified actions, but not all of them."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is its ability to reset passwords every time that it is needed or periodically."
"I am impressed with the product's seamless integration. The PAM wallet and enterprise password wallet are good also good."
"The most valuable feature is that their database is completely encrypted and protected with multiple layers."
"What sets CyberArk apart is its continuous innovation, staying ahead of the competition."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"Good life cycle management, segregation of duties, and analytics features."
"We like the integration with other systems."
"The community is very active and when I had questions about an issue, I was able to find the resources."
"We are happy with the SailPoint IdentityIQ’s stability."
"The most valuable features of SailPoint IdentityIQ are the reporting because it is better than other solutions. The workflows can be customized to our requirements and the overall features are good."
"The most powerful feature of the solution is its platform-based approach. Unlike other solutions, this tool offers a high level of customization. It is an open and flexible platform, allowing users to tailor it to their needs. This ability to customize and adapt the solution to individual requirements makes the solution stand out as a powerful product."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ has more enriched out-of-box connectors than the others."
"The basic concept is most valuable. I like how they have designed the solution. They create an Identity Cube, and then they do all the processes and configuration around the Identity Cube."
 

Cons

"One area that has room for improvement is in managing the credentials for network devices."
"The installation process is pretty difficult."
"The solution is very expensive."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager can be better by making its UI more consistent."
"Performance could be better. We have a couple of problems with CyberArk right now. One of the problems is performance in our environment. Support also takes a long time to respond. If the user already has local admin rights, then I can't collect any events in the console from this device. There are also some options in CyberArk that are not working properly, and are not helpful in this case. I can't collect any information to create a proper policy for the device. I have to investigate everything manually, or even disable the local admin from the device. I can collect the events only after this, and it's very time consuming. In my case, it's a waste of resources."
"CyberArk has some performance issues. For example, servers could not handle the solution when we first took CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager."
"CyberArk is a pretty heavy solution."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is a perfect solution, but CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager for Linux has many issues. Another area for improvement in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, specifically for Windows, is that there's no way for you to check credential theft from a text file, such as a notepad file."
"The cost of this solution is high. The technical assistance center could be improved. They're very good, but considering the intricacies of the solution, they can further improve."
"Competitors are advancing by offering integrated solutions encompassing access and privileged access management in a single unified platform. IdentityIQ's focus has remained primarily on identity and access governance, neglecting to expand its offerings to include these additional functionalities within its existing product. Enhancing their product by incorporating modules for access management, privileged access management, and third-party access governance could address this gap."
"It tends to be more expensive, but at the end of the day, it works."
"In the past, we had a lot of problems with SailPoint IdentityIQ, particularly in providing access and provisioning. There were some gaps in the operation of the solution because they were manual rather than automated, and the users and administrators were given access directly via Active Directory, and it wasn't appropriate for us at the time to use. In terms of integration, we could provide a more automated solution after a minimum number of years, but not in the SailPoint IdentityIQ platform, but there were problems in the registration, for example, with putting information inside ADP, but in general, we were able to solve those problems, and after implementing SailPoint IdentityIQ we had increased evaluations."
"It is too technical. You need really good technical skills in Java and other technologies, which are hard to find. If they can make it easier so that things can be done with a few clicks, it will be great."
"There is a need for further enhancements, specifically in the multifactor authentication capabilities."
"Some setups should be done in the interface and in the code, and could be made simpler."
"The connectors are far too manual. This needs to be automated a bit."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing depends on how many devices you use. Right now, on-premise, it costs us a little, but it's worth it. It seems like the cloud solution is much more expensive. We got this solution one year ago, and it's like we bought the solution, and now they are not going to support it on-premise anymore. We are in the implementation phase, and we missed this, and we already paid for the licenses. This is wasted time from my perspective, and CyberArk should be more customer-friendly."
"I feel that the price of the product is nominal. It must be around 10 to 15 USD per installation. I rate the product price an eight to nine out of ten, where one is high price, and ten is low price."
"The product's license is easy to procure."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors' products."
"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."
"I think that it was in the range of $200,000 that had to get approved."
"The professional services for one eight-hour day would be $1,800."
"It's not at the lower end of the market. I think the price is reasonable considering the quality it delivers. It is a top-notch solution at a fair price point."
"The pricing is based on the number of users and is reasonable."
"The licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"SailPoint IdentityIQ is too expensive for small and medium companies. It is an expensive product."
"Usually, the cost of deploying about 5,000 licenses or 5,000 users, would be the equivalent to the cost of the license, which would be reaching up to around $90,000."
"We pay an annual licensing cost for SailPoint IdentityIQ."
"It is affordable licensing."
"Its price is okay. It provides good value for money. It is subscription-based. You can go for a one-year or three-year subscription."
"You are able to get discounts if you plan to use the tool for the long-term i.e. discounts for 5+ years of usage."
