"Number one is the password vault; it's very good. Number two, they have a feature for remote desktops that are created on a per session basis, which is very good for security."
"I like that it is Windows-based. It is good that primarily, it is not an appliance. Some of the other applications in the space, such as a Quest Software CPAM or a Safeguard, are appliances, so you can't deploy the ends of them. With Thycotic, you can either install your Temporal Protection module physically in the VM host, or you can use BouncyCastle for high-security module capabilities."
"It is able to manage storage and use of personal passwords."
"I have found most valuable the automatic scheduled password rotation and remote desktop monitoring. Additionally, the documentation is readily available and easy to find and the dashboard is straightforward."
"I have found the password management and the secret management features to be the most valuable. Our customers find its ease of integration and the use of power shells really attractive."
"The secret template, password rotation, and recording sessions are the most valuable."
"The discovery engine is really robust and flexible. It had some session management features that are better compared to some other vendors. Overall the GUI is very good and straightforward to operate compared to other solutions. For example, CyberArk and Hitachi tend to be hard to navigate."
"I like the one-way hash, as well as the ability to store it in the cloud and access it from anywhere."
"The live recording is a very useful feature."
"The technical support needs improvement. For example, if you have any problems on the server configuring the IIS, they would provide you very limited details and they would tell you the problem is on your end."
"It is expensive compared to other solutions in this category and for what it does."
"When working with larger enterprises Thycotic Secret Server becomes a little cumbersome to work with because they do not allow as much flexibility as some of the other competitors, such as CyberArk. Thycotic Secret Server could improve by being more flexible when it comes to customization, and increase the number of API integrations."
"The UI needs improvement because the interface is a little clumsy."
"Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."
"I think that the main interface should integrate better with non-standard applications and clients, to connect with other systems."
"The initial setup and deployment can be cumbersome. It's not an easy process."
"The API is no good."
"The newer interface is more difficult to use than the previous one, and consequently, new users might need more training."
