CyberArk manager at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
Secures critical infrastructures with essential user session audit records
A potential area for improvement is enhancing support for cluster environments and distributed Vaults. Clients in multiple countries that need central access have different challenges that require better solutions from CyberArk. For financial services, CyberArk can improve incident response by ensuring fast support for critical priority tickets to meet compliance requirements. Providing more documentation on CyberArk is recommended for new team members to enhance their troubleshooting capabilities. I understand it's up to the client, but 99% fail to change the demo key, so it's crucial for CyberArk to emphasize changing the key and documenting it as part of the installation process.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature; it works really well, and the ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
"The solution is easy to use, the performance has been good, the integration capabilities have been good, and it is very stable and quite secure."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members, and the auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager include quick access, ease of use, and a variety of connection methods beyond the web portal."
"This solution works very well, and the feedback from our customers is very good."
"You can gradually implement CyberArk, starting with more easily attainable goals."
"It has a centralized page where you can manage everything. This makes work easier. You don't have to remember different module URLs or browser applications. It is very easy to get all the secure identities of other environments into a single page, which is very important for us as it helps a lot in terms of operations, e.g., reduces management time. This is a single page where you can manage all accounts and onboard them to the CyberArk. You can then secure and see passwords from everywhere. So, there is a single pane of glass where you can manage all the identities across environments as well as across different types of identities."
"I would rate this solution a nine out of ten."
"CyberArk's GUI is user friendly."
"It is an extremely scalable solution."
"CyberArk is a fantastic solution."
 

Cons

"The cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."
"The integration with the VPN feature could be smoother."
"It would be nice to have the solution localized in Europe. Dashlane is an American company. It's controlled by American laws and regulations that allows the American government to have full access to my data with Dashlane. That's why I am leaving Dashlane, because we can't accept such an important function in American control."
"There should also be an easier way to be able to transfer user data to other users who have kind of left the company. It could be a little bit cheaper."
"Over the past seven years, I have seen a lot of ups and downs with the product, but now I am happy with the version that we are using now."
"We would like to have more flexibility in the RBAC model and have more options to define who should have access to what, not only based on safe membership."
"I think having a distributed architecture would certainly help this solution."
"For users to access a system via CyberArk Privileged Session Manager, a universal connector needs to be coded in a language called AutoIT and its support for web browsers is so-so. Other products like Centrify have browser plugins that can help automate the process when using their products."
"Additionally, I think the user experience needs to improve."
"Customers also want CyberArk's pricing to be better so that they can implement it further and have more licenses."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"Sometimes, when we install their product, the BFN (Bridge to Future Networks) to the component manager, we have issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a little bit on the expensive side."
"The price of this solution is expensive."
"Payments have to be made on a yearly basis toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"The solution is cost-effective for the features."
"Overall, its pricing is really good. The main difference from all the other vendors is that they have one package that covers all the functionality and modules of the basic PAM, except the add-on modules like adware and server protection. It also doesn't include the licenses for domain controller protection or maybe an API call-related feature. For the basic privileged access management, the bundle pricing is really good, but when it comes to an agent-based solution for advanced cyber protection or application identity managers, it is expensive. Services are also very expensive if you hire the services team from CyberArk, but these guys are really good. For a couple of large banking projects, we had an experience with them. The banks wanted to have things quickly and efficiently, so we had to hire them. If we take four weeks, these guys can do everything on a weekend. They charge quite a big sum of money, but they know the system well."
"The product's licensing is yearly. I would rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
"CyberArk is good at what they do, and the price reflects that. You have to pay the price for the same."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is more expensive than its competitors, such as BeyondTrust, Delinea, and ManageEngine PAM360."
"This solution is expensive."
