CyberArk Privileged Access Manager has helped customers save on costs primarily by reducing the number of engineering and information security personnel.
Any PAM solution, when I deploy it well and customers use it, leads to a return on investment.

One Identity Safeguard’s customer service is praised for responsiveness and efficiency, but standard support faces mixed reviews.
Sentiment score
6.7
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM excels in customer service with high satisfaction ratings, proactive guidance, and effective issue resolution.
CyberArk has been exceptional in coming back to us with immediate responses.
It could be forever until you talk to someone who knows what they are doing.
They are helpful, but complex issues can take a long time to resolve, which can delay solutions for urgent customer issues.
I sometimes need escalations to reach expertise.
Sometimes, I get a very helpful response and they address issues on a call.
When I have day-to-day incidents and problems, the response is good enough in terms of time and quality.
There is no UK-based support, which leads to delays in waiting for US support.
If I raise a ticket, it initially goes to the L1 team, but the next level of escalation is really effective.
When we reach out to someone, we often wait for the right person with the right skills to come and fix the solution, which is the major challenge.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.7
CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is scalable, supports diverse deployments, and efficiently handles thousands of users, despite planning requirements.

Sentiment score
8.0
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers efficient scalability with flexible options, resolving slowdowns swiftly for diverse operational needs.
The CPM can reportedly handle up to 50,000 accounts independently without issue.
I would rate it a ten out of ten for scalability.
They had 40,000 passwords in this one safe, and it was saving the last ten iterations of each password object. That means they had 400,000 password objects in this safe. They exceeded the limit.
The scalability of One Identity Safeguard is perfect, scoring ten out of ten.
We have a cluster of SPPs and a cluster of SPSs, and we can add a node to that cluster without much fuss.
I would rate it a nine out of ten for scalability.

Room For Improvement

Users recommend enhancing CyberArk's interface, integration, documentation, customization, costs, support, performance, and training for improved experience.
One Identity Safeguard needs improvements in integration, management, documentation, interface, support, monitoring, threat detection, and pricing.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM struggles with complex deployment, integration, usability, and needs improvements in reporting, support, pricing, and performance.
They want everything to be on the cloud, but even in the SaaS version of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager, they need to deploy some servers on-premises.
We cannot generate a plug-in for web-based applications.
If they want clients to move to the cloud, they need to support them in real-time.
For some configurations on the SPS side, if I need to make changes, such as for DNS servers, I must redeploy the machine.
There are many steps. We are still in the onboarding phase, and it seems very manual.
Another area for improvement could be the threat detection capabilities, like those seen in other PAM vendors.
At the admin level, we have many challenges where log parsing is causing issues and compatibility is not present.
The passing and setup are quite complex at the beginning, making onboarding not smooth.
SIEM could have better integration with other technologies.
 

Setup Cost

CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is costly yet favored for its robust security and market-leading capabilities, justifying the expense.
One Identity Safeguard is costly but valued for flexibility and robust security, with straightforward licensing and worthwhile investment.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers competitive, predictable pricing based on employee count, with typical enterprise costs around $100,000 for three years.
CyberArk is expensive compared to other products I know.
CyberArk is comparatively expensive compared to other PAM solutions, such as Delinea, especially during renewal.
CyberArk's SaaS solution is particularly expensive.
It is one of those where the more you buy, the cheaper it is.
It is cheaper than CyberArk.
It is more expensive than Secret Server but way less expensive than CyberArk.
Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS.

Valuable Features

CyberArk Privileged Access Manager offers secure, versatile management for privileged accounts with automation, integration, and a user-friendly interface.
One Identity Safeguard enhances security with seamless user experience, extensive features, centralized access, and robust monitoring for on-prem and cloud management.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers advanced threat detection, automation, and integration, enhancing security while reducing manual tasks and response times.
CyberArk Privileged Access Manager helps ensure data privacy because we now know who is using which credentials and at what time.
It keeps a record of activities, allowing me to easily fetch screen recordings to detect any misuse and see who did what and what happened.
It can integrate with Splunk, SNMP, and other solutions and technologies.
The auditing and approval mechanisms are features we did not have before and are greatly appreciated.
I think One Identity should improve its documentation because it is vast and not clear, and clear documentation on implementing the solution would be advantageous for consultants.
Compared to other PAM solutions, it is easy to implement and use from an administrator's point of view.
The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities.
Now, the process is automatic, reducing our workload.
The other SIEM solutions lack an option for big data analysis, whereas in the Securonix Next-Gen SIEM, we have this option.

Featured Reviews

Abdul Durrani - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables granular and secure access with just-in-time access and Zero Trust model
CyberArk provides a good amount of control over access types. However, as a future enhancement, having additional features for cross-platform integration would be beneficial. It would be good to have integrations with other tools and firewalls, such as Zscaler and CrowdStrike. Although I am not fully aware of recent updates, more cross-platform integration would be valuable. A SOC analyst would like to have centralized access in terms of information flowing in even for privileged access management. They would like to have control over everything instead of opening four to five tabs for different sorts of information. Cross-platform integration would help with that. Customers also want CyberArk's pricing to be better so that they can implement it further and have more licenses. Implementing a privileged access management solution can be challenging. It would be great if CyberArk could provide recommendations based on the compliance standards of an organization. It would help system admins ensure that all the required ports are closed and the systems are being managed properly. If any system is not being used anymore, any ports opened for that system need to be closed. Having such recommendations would be helpful.
Martin Ajayiobe - PeerSpot reviewer
Th password vault feature has proven to be most effective for managing privileged access
One Identity Safeguard now prevents unauthorized access to servers by eliminating privileged passwords and requiring all connections to go through a PAM-authorized process. This means no one, including hackers, can access servers without explicit approval, significantly enhancing overall security. One Identity Safeguard is easy to use with a good partner to support you, and it can be up and running within a few days. We have successfully integrated One Identity Safeguard with cloud targets, and the process was straightforward. One Identity Safeguard has improved our incident response time by 300 percent.
Mohammed Nadeem Rais - PeerSpot reviewer
The visibility and analytics from Securonix SIEM have become indispensable in identifying and stopping potential threats before they escalate.
The most valuable feature of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is its advance analytics, flexibility and scalability. We ingest billions of logs without worrying about resource allocation. This makes it a robust and cost-effective solution for our needs. Its user entity and behavior analytics (UEBA) are also integral for detecting insider threats and lateral movements within the organization. These features help organizations strengthen their security posture, protect sensitive data, and maintain compliance with strict regulatory requirements.
