Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, HashiCorp, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Enterprise Password Managers."We use the solution for password vaulting, password rotation, session management, and secret management."
"CPM helps keep the password policy up to date."
"The tool has safe vaults. We keep our passwords in the Vault. The tool’s recording feature is also valuable for us."
"CyberArk has a lot of modules."
"Every aspect of the solution is very well integrated, and even that gives comfort. It is a fail-safe kind of environment."
"The PSM is excellent and the ability to write your own connectors and plugins is invaluable as far as flexibility goes."
"Our most valuable features would probably be key rotation, the SKM or SSH key manager, and account discovery."
"In terms of stability, there are no complaints."
"It's always hard to put a value on return on investment. You avoid one breach and it's paid for a million times over. We got a penetration test company internally, just to see how secure our network is, and there happened to be one bit of software that had been overlooked by an external company that managed it. It hadn't been upgraded so that managed to get them into the network. They would've been able to access through the test thing a file that we had previously. If that was a real-life scenario they would have been able to get into our network and get full access to our organization's passwords. If they did get in, they would have gotten access to the cloud. The ROI we see is that we are completely secured compared to what we had previously where there was a vulnerability."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"Off-boarding of people is easy without changing shared account passwords."
"Increased security around password management for teams and collaborative efforts with external vendors."
"Until now, I haven't found anything like the dashboard. It gives you a security score. I find that to be really great. The Sharing Center is really great as well. And the Security Challenge is really great too."
"The most valuable feature for me is being able to pair applications and user permissions."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"The stability has been rock solid. A couple of years ago, they were breached. However, if you had two-factor authentication enabled, it didn't affect you. We did, so it has been good."
"Password Vault is much pricier than other solutions. A vendor team might struggle to explain why that price is justified. There are good alternatives that cost less."
"I would like to see a simplification of the product."
"I would like to see more integration with more tools, for more APIs."
"The price is high compared to Azure Key Vault. It's the most expensive solution."
"CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault's GUI has certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The stability depends on the infrastructure it is installed on, which is important because CyberArk does not have the hardware appliance."
"The solution is too big and complex for any businesses that are small or medium-sized. They should offer a more compact version or make a solution better suited to smaller businesses."
"The solution is too complicated to use and should be simplified. It took me a long time to understand how to use it. There is a lot that the solution can improve for the future."
"The ability to set up an account expiration limit/date would be very useful."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"I struggle a little bit with the mobile app. As a browser extension, it works really well, and we are able to get to what we need to. However, on the phone, it's not quite as easy to navigate."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"Our biggest issue over the years was around the stability of the LDAP sync to AD."
"The management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"The biggest thing is there is no good way to have LastPass rotate passwords without human intervention. Right now, we have to go into each folder, then rotate and manually update each password. It can be done it by loading a bunch of passwords into a spreadsheet, but this makes the whole process insecure because then the passwords have been noted into a spreadsheet which have to be upload. We have to go into 40 to 50 applications and manually update passwords, because we don't view their solution of writing a bunch of passwords on a spreadsheet, then uploading them as a secure solution. This should be done internally within LastPass."
