We performed a comparison between CyberArk Privileged Access Manager and Fudo PAM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product is an important security measure against credential theft. It ensures session isolation and password rotation including pushing passwords to the endpoints."
"Creating policies and the password rotation feature have been valuable. We don't have to memorize our password for the ADM account."
"The most valuable aspects of the solution include password management and Rest API retrieval of vaulted credentials."
"CyberArk has allowed us to get the credentials and passwords out of hard-coded property files."
"Its' quite stable."
"You can write different types of policies for custom business needs or any developer needs. If they need certain functions allocated, they can be customized easily."
"The technical support is good."
"The automatic change of the password and Privileged Session Manager (PSM) are the most valuable features. With Privileged Session Manager, you can control the password management in a centralized way. You can activate these features in a session; the session isolation and recording. You apply the full intermediation principle. So, you must pass through CyberArk PAM to get access to the target system. You don't need to know the password, and everything that you do is registered and auditable. In this case, no one gets to touch the password directly. Also, you can implement detection and response behavior in case of a breach."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"Performance of PIM could be better and intended for usability as well as security."
"If you are an administrator or architect, then the solution is kind of complicated, as it is mostly focused on the end user. So, they need to also focus on the people who are implementing it."
"What could be improved in CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is the licensing model. It should be more flexible in terms of the users. Currently, it's based on the number of users, but many users only log in once in four months or once in five months. It would be great if the licensing model could be modified based on user needs. We even have users who have not logged in even once."
"The PTA could be improved. Currently, companies often have multiple domains and sometimes it's difficult to implement CyberArk in this kind of infrastructure. For example, you can add CPM (Central Policy Manager) and PSM (Privileged Session Manager and PVWA (Password Vault Web Access) for access, but if you want to add PTA (Privileged Threat Analysis) to scan Vault logs, it is difficult because this component may be adding multiple domain environments."
"Stability is a huge concern right now. We are on a version which is very unstable. We have to upgrade to stabilize it. It is fine, but the problem is we have to hire CyberArk to do the upgrade. This costs money, and it is their bug."
"We had an issue with the Copy feature... Apparently, in version 10, that Copy feature does not work. You actually have to click Show and then copy the password from within Show and then paste it. We've had a million tickets and we had to figure out a workaround to it."
"I don't know if "failed authentication" is a glitch or if that was an update... However, since we are the CyberArk support within our organization, we need to know that the password is suspended and we won't know that unless we have the ITA log up. So when a user calls and says, "Hey, I'm locked out of CyberArk, I can't get into CyberArk," we have to go through all of these other troubleshooting steps because the first thing we don't think of right now is, "The account is suspended." It doesn't say that anymore."
"Tech support staff can be more proactive."
"The stability is not very good."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"The configuration is difficult."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
