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.

Provides multiple scans of all of the devices while offering visibility and status of the IoT devices
From the point of view of a reseller, Sectrio is better than other products in the sense that there is a lot of direct interaction my company has with Sectrio's teams instead of us having to communicate with the tool's team members via some impersonal portal on the internet. At the same time, not having an online portal is also a disadvantage because when you use a portal like Sophos and Sophos Central, where Sophos has a partner portal to register a user and get the pricing details, everything becomes a lot more streamlined. If you have to deal with people every time, then it gets a little cluttered. The aforementioned details revolve around the area of online portals, where the same thing can be considered a good point and a bad point.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Password rotation is the most valuable feature"
"Customer support has been very helpful and responsive."
"It supports lots of requirements in the privileged access management area."
"The password vault and session monitoring are useful."
"Because we now have the ability to grant access to management utilities like DNS Manager, Sequel Studio, and MMC, in a secure fashion, without system admins being required to continually reenter various passwords that are stored who knows where, it has really made the system admin's job much easier. It has made the PSM's job much easier. It has made the auditor's job and the security team's job and the access manager's job significantly easier, because we're able to move much more quickly toward a role-based access management system, and that is really streamlining the whole onboarding/offboarding management process."
"The privileged support manager is the most valuable feature of CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager's main benefit is it provides secure access to our servers. There are features to capture the user activity, it provides video recording processing. If the users are logged in to the server, we can see what activities they are performing. It's a very nice tool for Privileged Access Management. They have plenty of useful services and the solution has fulfilled our needs."
"It is an absolutely scalable solution."
 

Cons

"They need to provide better training for the System Integrator."
"I'm not a fan of technical support with CyberArk. It's like jumping through red tape and hoops. Quite frankly, it's almost like when you call CyberArk you get the Help Desk or the level-one. I'm a level-one. I got the CCD, I know how to do the initial troubleshooting. When I call CyberArk it's because I can't figure the problem out. So I need a level-two, three, four. I don't need you to tell me, "Hey, open a ticket and then give me logs.""
"In CyberArk Privileged Access Manager, the UI has room for improvement, as does the dashboard reporting, which could be made better or easier to use."
"Sometimes critical issues require follow-ups, as the support team doesn't always recognize the urgency of a critical ticket immediately."
"Sometimes the infrastructure team is hesitant to provide more resources."
"The issue of technical support is crucial, as there are not many specialized partners available in Brazil to provide this service. While English language support is of good quality, there is a significant shortage of partners capable of meeting the demand locally."
"The only problem involves granting access to people who are authorized to view it."
"The tool’s pricing and scalability can be better."
"I want Sectrio's sales team to be a lot more aggressive than how they operate currently."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution is expensive."
"I have heard from my leaders that CyberArk is costlier in terms of licensing. The support and maintenance are also costly. We use their premium support, but for the price we pay, we do not get the value."
"CyberArk is very expensive and there are additional fees for add-ons."
"Quite expensive"
"The price of this solution is quite reasonable."
"Since CyberArk is at the top of the Gartner list, the cost is indeed on the higher side, but customers must discern which entities are essential to purchase. They should weigh the cost against the quality received."
"I do not have any opinions to add about the pricing of the product."
"I hope to learn how the pricing works so that I can understand it better, but I am certain it is not inexpensive."
"Sectrio is a product that is priced in the mid-range."
