Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like the integrations for external applications.""It takes people out of the machine work of ensuring credentials remain up-to-date, and handles connection brokering such that human usage and credential management remain independent.""The most valuable feature is Special Monitoring.""We know when passwords will be expiring so we can force users to change their passwords, as well as requiring specific password requirements for length, complexity, etc.""The threat analytics is an important feature.""There are no issues with scalability. Our clients are very happy to use the product.""The central password manager is the most valuable feature because the password is constantly changing. If an outsider threat came in and gained access to one of those passwords, they would not have access for long.""It is a robust product."

"The most valuable feature for us is the ability to use Active Directory groups as virtual containers instead of domains because it means that we can control our access groups better."

More Gemalto Protiva Pros →

"The solution is pretty stable and simple to use.""One of the most valuable aspects of SailPoint is its open integration interface.""A feature of SailPoint IdentityIQ that I like best is that it has good integration with other platforms. My company is using ADP here in Brazil, and SailPoint IdentityIQ works very, very well with it. My company is also using the solution for governance evaluation, segregation, and other access tests. For my company, SailPoint IdentityIQ is a very important solution, especially because it's automated, and there's a huge audit and risk issue here in Brazil.""Access certification and provisioning are two of the solutions most valuable features.""SailPoint IdentityIQ has a good and straightforward user interface. They also have a lot of resources and documentation available to understand the process.""The most selling modules for SailPoint are the compliance manager and the life cycle manager.""Has a great certification module with intuitive options.""The compliance features are the most valuable features."

Cons
"The Vault's disaster recovery features need improvement.""The lead product has a slow process. There are some reports and requirements from CyberArk which are not readily available as an applicable solution. We have made consistent management requests in the logs.""New functionalities and discovered bugs take longer to patch. We would greatly appreciate quicker development of security patches and bug corrections.""The initial setup has room for improvement to be more straightforward.""It's a big program. To scale excessively, locally, on an on-prem application, takes a lot of servers.""CyberArk has a lot on the privileged access side but they have to concentrate more on the application side as well.""We don't often contact technical support, but when we do it, the response could be faster and better.""It needs better documentation with more examples for the configuration files and API/REST integration"

More CyberArk Privileged Access Manager Cons →

"The user interface needs improvement."

More Gemalto Protiva Cons →

"The cost can be prohibitive for middle-tier companies.""The solution, in general, is quite expensive.""Additional details during account aggregation failures to help quick troubleshooting.""I would like to see more Cloud management from this product.""I think that the onboarding framework could be improved.""Compared to at least one other product some of the administrative tasks could be easier or more intuitive.""Regarding the scope for improvement in the solution, reporting is an area that can be a bit more UI-oriented.""The interface should be simple and easier to use."

    Overview

    CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is a next-generation solution that allows users to secure both their applications and their confidential corporate information. It is extremely flexible and can be implemented across a variety of environments. This program runs with equal efficiency in a fully cloud-based, hybrid, or on-premises environment.

    CyberArk Privileged Access Manager possesses a simplified and unified user interface. Users are able to manage the solution from one place. The UI allows users to view and manage all of the information and controls that administrators need to be able to easily access. Very often, management UIs do not have all of the controls and information streamlined in a single location. This platform provides a level of visibility that ensures users will be able to view all of their system’s most critical information at any time that they wish.

    Benefits of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager

    Some of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager’s benefits include:

    • The ability to manage IDs and permissions across a cloud environment. In a world where being able to work remotely is becoming increasingly important, CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is a very valuable tool. Administrators do not need to worry about infrastructure security when they are away from the office. They can assign and manage security credentials from anywhere in the world.
    • The ability to manage the program from a single centralized UI. CyberArk Privileged Access Manager’s UI contains all of the system controls and information. Users now have the ability to view and use all of their system’s most critical information and controls from one place.
    • The ability to automate user management tasks. Administrators can save valuable time by assigning certain management tasks to be fulfilled by the system itself. Users can now reserve their time for tasks that are most pressing. It can also allow for the system to simplify the management process by having the platform perform the most complex functions.

    Reviews from Real Users

    CyberArk Privileged Access Manager’s software stands out among its competitors for one very fundamental reason. CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is an all-in-one solution. Users are given the ability to accomplish with a single platform what might usually only be accomplished with multiple solutions.

    PeerSpot users note the truly all-in-one nature of this solution. Mateusz K., IT Manager at a financial services firm, wrote, "It improves security in our company. We have more than 10,000 accounts that we manage in CyberArk. We use these accounts for SQLs, Windows Server, and Unix. Therefore, keeping these passwords up-to-date in another solution or software would be impossible. Now, we have some sort of a platform to manage passwords, distribute the inflow, and manage IT teams as well as making regular changes to it according to the internal security policies in our bank."

    Hichem T.-B., CDO & Co-Founder at ELYTIK, noted that “This is a complete solution that can detect cyber attacks well. I have found the proxy features most valuable for fast password web access.”

    Protiva is a strong authentication platform that was developed to incorporate the strengths of Gemalto's smart card technology. It consists of a family of smart card-based user authentication devices, a browser plug-in, an authentication and customer care server and a self-service user care portal.
