Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 16, 2024

Delinea Secret Server and One Identity Password Manager compete in the realm of security and password management solutions. Delinea Secret Server seems to have an upper hand due to its extensive feature offerings and comprehensive support for large organizations.

Features: Delinea Secret Server offers powerful secret attachments, custom templates, and session monitoring, excelling in network discovery and privileged access management. One Identity Password Manager is focused on password management, providing OTP, password synchronization, and integrations with various applications.

Room for Improvement: Delinea Secret Server could improve its session recording controls, API support, and integration with additional platforms. Its management interfaces could be more user-friendly. One Identity Password Manager needs advancements in ease of integration, customization options, and responsiveness of its support team.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Delinea Secret Server offers flexible deployment options, including on-premises, hybrid, and public cloud, but can be complex to set up. Its technical support is generally well-rated. One Identity Password Manager favors simpler on-premises deployment, with its technical support being responsive and helpful.

Has improved credential security with remote password change and role-based access

I have not faced any significant issues with Delinea Secret Server during this period of time, but we had a problem with a web password filler, which is a template used for accessing a web URL using Secret Server, where we faced some session management issues since session management is not applicable for the web password filler. This should be the improvement that we require from Delinea Secret Server. The session management is not applicable in this case; we can manage the session and have session management inside the remote systems within the organization. However, when it comes to web-related access, we can access directly through Delinea Secret Server. We can access any URL through Secret Server, but the problem is that the session cannot be managed on the web URL due to it having multiple systems. I do not have any other recommendations regarding the improvement of Delinea Secret Server at this time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The privileged access management module is the most reliable feature."

"I like that it's user-friendly."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it provides us with a secure way of managing passwords."

"The ability to give some groups access to different kind of databases with the storage of a password is the most valuable feature."

"The solution is good."

"I really like the zero trust piece."

"The technical support services are excellent."

"One of the features I find most valuable is workflow, which allows you to configure the solution to have multiple approvals."

More Delinea Secret Server pros

"It provides seamless integration with different types of password modules like temporary access passcode and MFA."

"It is an absolutely scalable solution...The product is easy to install."

"It is extremely simple to integrate with various systems, including OTP, passwords, and so on because everything is based on our environment."

"One Identity Password Manager is a stable solution."

"The solution is very customizable."

"It does have advantages over the other products that we are seeing. Other products don't have the out-of-the-box OTP option, whereas One Identity Password Manager has the out-of-the-box OTP option. It also has a cloud-based solution for generating OTPs. So, the customers can either opt for their own SMS gateway, or they can use the One Identity OTP option where they don't have to have an SMS gateway. With other products, customers must have their own SMS gateway."

"What I found most valuable in One Identity Password Manager is its easy use. It's a flexible solution. It also supports many languages, including Arabic."

"Password Manager is very effective at helping users reset their passwords."

Cons

"An area for improvement in Delinea Secret Server is its integration with ICAP servers."

"I would like to see the shadowing of ongoing terminal sessions (Remote Desktop Mirroring)."

"Having more detailed reporting would improve this solution."

"In many PAM tools, when users request a password checkout, they need to provide justification. However, in my experience across four organizations, nobody actually reads the justifications. Users can simply type anything and get the password. This becomes a risk and compliance issue. There needs to be continuous improvement in this area, focusing on problem identification and mitigation strategies."

"We had a problem with a web password filler, which is a template used for accessing a web URL using Secret Server, where we faced some session management issues since session management is not applicable for the web password filler."

"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."

"As I am partial to CyberArk, I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten, owing to the minor glitches I mentioned."

"Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."

More Delinea Secret Server cons

"I would like it to be more secure in terms of password storage."

"The improvement required is an increase in the number of people who manage the product's support team."

"One Identity Password Manager could improve the integration with other technology, it is complex for integrating. There needs to be more connectors or adapters. There is limited out-of-the-box customization."

"If there is a self-service option to update the mobile number, it will be much more useful."

"There is a need for better Windows Eleven compatibility, especially for resetting passwords before login."

"The software is complex on the backend, and there isn't enough documentation."

"The UI needs improvement to match any other standard password manager because it's not very intuitive right now."

"An area for improvement in One Identity Password Manager is the management gap since Quest is no longer under Dell, and One Identity is under Quest. The management gap resulted in poor support, which needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution is good."

"We have an enterprise license as well as a user license and a support license."

"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with ten being a high price."

"There are different plans and additional licensing costs that can be instituted for add-ons."

"There is an annual license fee per user and the price is fair."

"In the Nigerian market, the adoption of Delinea depends largely on an organization's budget. If they have the financial capacity, they might consider Delinea as a viable option."

"Compared to other solutions, Delinea Secret Server is competitively priced but on the higher side."

"Pricing is comparable to competing products."

More Delinea Secret Server pricing and cost advice

"Its price is on the cheaper side. It has a perpetual license, and everything is included in the license. You only have to pay separately for the SMS gateway or the OTP part."

"The price of One Identity Password Manager is average. There are other solutions that are more expensive, such as ARCON and others that are less expensive."

"The licensing for One Identity Password Manager depends on the customer's requirement. For example, it could be one year, or it could be three years. In general, One Identity Password Manager is not an expensive product. Pricing for it is competitive."

"It is not that expensive, as far as I recall. It was approximately $1.50 USD per user or something like that."

"Though the solution's price is reasonable, it depends on the number of users operating at the customer's end."
