Featured Reviews

Julio Montero - PeerSpot reviewer
Access management system provides strong security and effortless user authentication
The solution can be deployed on cloud or on-premises. CyberArk is more on the cloud than on local hardware. The deployment is initially quite difficult. That said, when you are doing the implementation of CyberArk, there are so many tutorials that make the learning process very easy. The only complaint could be the language barrier. It's difficult if you don't have a very good level of English. Otherwise, it is very easy. You can have it set up within three months without much difficulty. It's hard to get started, however, once you get going, it gets easier. A full deployment takes half a year or less. There is some maintenance necessary. A company is constantly hiring and letting go of employees. The access is always changing, so access must always be adjusted. Or, if we need another law of filter, we would need to add those, or even take them away. That's another aspect of maintenance.
Upendar G - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficiently manage applications with secure single sign-on and streamlined operations
Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access. Its ability to consolidate applications on a single interface streamlines operations significantly. The product is highly secure and reliable, especially in managing user access across various platforms. Multi-factor authentication enhances security by requiring additional verification steps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The features that I personally find most effective in terms of security stem from the fact that it is easy to integrate and also the adoption is faster."
"CyberArk Identity's ability to safeguard financial services infrastructure is good."
"The tool helps with authentication. It acts as an MFA for any kind of privileged access that occurs in our organization."
"The user identification is simplified, and managing user privileges, whether adding or revoking them, is also quite straightforward when utilizing CyberArk SaaS."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It takes me up to an hour and a half."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"CyberArk Identity is a mature product."
"Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"Overall, I rate Oracle Access Manager nine out of ten for its extensive capabilities."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Access Manager are the single sign-on capability and is a very robust platform. It can take a high number of authentication, and authorization requests. It's very flexible."
"The MFA is the most valuable aspect."
"My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on."
"Excellent SSO solution for Oracle products."
"From a technical perspective, the solution is very good we can operate and control the user by ourselves."
 

Cons

"The product needs to leverage the cloud more, especially in the financial sector, where cloud adoption might be limited. Proper reporting within the cloud is essential. The tool should be more user-friendly to expedite access for users. The current agent-based system poses challenges if a user loses access to the server, making tasks difficult to perform. It should also improve technical support."
"We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."
"One area for improvement is the complexity of the learning curve for new users."
"More integrations would be better."
"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"Integration or deployment is extremely difficult for CyberArk Identity."
"Something they could improve is the management of multifactor authentication. When you translate the page from one language to another, it can be a difficult process."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"There are problems with stability."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the interface."
"The product is complicated and difficult to install and configure."
"The performance of Oracle Access Manager could be improved. It should be quick to install, but it wasn't, so this is another area for improvement. The Oracle Access Manager console also has room for improvement because it's slow."
"The user interface is a bit complicated and could be made more lightweight. Simplifying the installation process, perhaps through a VDAR-based installation, would also be beneficial."
"There could be some improvements in the documentation and overall knowledge base of the solution."
"Sometimes if a session takes too long, you have to log in again."
"Although Oracle Access Manager is generally stable, we experienced issues with multi-domain configurations and web agent settings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an initial license and then there is a subscription needed."
"It's not that affordable compared to Delinea or other products. They're less expensive and allow more customization. For the cost, it is expensive."
"The solution is cheap and I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"CyberArk Identity is an expensive solution."
"Their pricing is obviously a lot higher than many vendors in the marketplace but their service is also unmatched."
"The pricing is acceptable. It is worth considering what we are protecting with the amount charged."
"There could be some additional costs apart from the licensing costs of the solution when you want to develop connectors in CyberArk Identity."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a seven out of ten. The product’s pricing is expensive and is on a yearly basis. You will need to pay around 10,000 GBP for 500 users."
"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."
"The product is a little expensive."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
"The tool is affordable."
"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
