Comprehensive documentation streamlines implementation with opportunity to improve user experience
I typically use Delinea Privileged Access Service within my IT infrastructure management for consulting, to secure privileged access, recording, session recording, password vault, etcetera The most common solution I find effective for protecting sensitive data is the most common features of…

Centralized identity governance has automated lifecycle management and simplifies compliance
One Identity Manager could be improved by making the initial setup and configuration simpler, especially for complex workflows and integrations. The user interface and reporting dashboards could also be more modern and intuitive with better out-of-the-box analytics. Additionally, clearer documentation and faster implementation guidance would help organizations get value more quickly. One specific challenge my team encountered was the complexity during initial configuration, especially when setting up custom workflows and role models which required more time and expertise. We also felt that out-of-the-box reports and dashboards are limited, and more customizable real-time analytics would be helpful. Better documentation and guided setup wizards would make adoption easier, particularly for teams new to identity governance tools. One improvement I think One Identity Manager needs is the enhanced self-service experience. The end-user self-service portal could be more intuitive with clearer guidance for access requests and password resets. Additionally, while integrations are solid, deeper cloud-native connectors and API-driven automation would help in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. A more responsive mobile interface or dedicated app for approvals and tasks would help managers who are often on the go. One more improvement is the built-in predictive insights or trend dashboards around access patterns and risk could improve proactive governance. More descriptive error messages and in-tool troubleshooting tips during setup configuration would reduce dependency on external documentation or support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management."
"The privileged account management feature is what I like most."
"Delinea has very good support."
"There are benefits in the security realm. We use Delinea at an enterprise level. I imagine there are productivity gains, but moreover, it's the security. We don’t enable staff to see the passwords of boxes but it's all being tracked and logged now."
"I recommend it to other organizations."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."
"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
"You can scale it quite big, which is good. It has good sizing."
"This solution is better on the IT personnel, because now they spend less (or almost no time) managing user rights."
"One Identity Manager stands out for its extensive functionality."
"One Identity Manager offers identity-centric security, acting as a single source of truth by centralizing identity data for users, devices, and applications."
"For most customers, their access management system becomes smoother using One Identity Manager."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its handling and that it is easy to maintain and manage the data."
"One Identity Manager simplifies user operations and provides security features, including automatic blocking of inactive accounts and timely access revocation."
"One Identity Manager is a complete governance tool, but its pricing remains reasonable when measured against other vendors."
 

Cons

"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"My thoughts about support of Delinea in general are that they are so so."
"I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff."
"The integration with sync could be improved."
"Enhancing the solution by incorporating additional features to make it comprehensive would be beneficial. It would be more convenient to have a complete package solution that consolidates all the features in one place, making it easier to manage. Currently, I am required to access two separate servers for reports, which could be avoided if all the necessary features were available in a single location. This would be highly advantageous for managing everything effectively."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk. Delinea needs to innovate more to match the changing needs of the market."
"The implementation of the tool and management on the infra side is a bit difficult."
"The support team could be improved on. The first level of support essentially looks up knowledge base articles and often can't provide the answer needed."
"A tool called Analyzer is included to assist with birthright generation. The tool isn't very user-friendly."
"The customer support needs to be improved because the response time for complex issues is quite high."
"It can have a clearer navigation map of the user interface and user provisioning."
"I would like to have more extensive out-of-the-box reports."
"Their technical support's attitude is a bit strange. Quite often, we have to prove that there is a problem with the product rather than having them prove that there is not a problem with the product."
"There is a small area inside of the administrator's GUI that could be a little bit more organized."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"The pricing is moderate."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"It needs flexibility in the licensing or packaging, because you buy the entire package at once, and sometimes the customers are a bit overwhelmed with whatever they get. I would like if they could cut the licensing or packaging into somewhat smaller things."
"We have the premium support and are very satisfied. They are always answer our questions very quickly. For the moment, we are very satisfied, but I think it's because we are paying for the premium support."
"I rate One Identity seven out of 10 for affordability. It's reasonably priced."
"One Identity Manager has a reasonable price point."
"Its price is okay."
"We are paying for premium support, which is expensive. However, we do receive very good, fast support."
"One Identity Manager's pricing is reasonable."
"One Identity Manager is fairly priced."
