Works with SCTP, STTPS, SQL, and MySQL protocols

There are some areas for improvement in the Fudo PAM cake that we want to improve in terms of scaling. Scaling is an optional feature because we closed some big projects with enterprise customers from different countries, including Ukraine, Kaloxetine, Uzbekistan, and others. We closed projects in different areas with customers of different sizes. When we talk about enterprise customers, we should consider that they have different use cases and desires for Fudo PAM. We compared our options for customers to choose their vendors, and we discovered Fudo PAM has few scaling options. In Fudo PAM, there should be additional features for scaling and organizing remote sessions for remote systems in remote networks.

Centralized privileged access has improved control and now supports secure vendor billing oversight

The transparent mode is a seamless approach when using it. We have some issues with it, but we are working on it to make it work for us. Managing remote access for privileged users with the secure remote access feature is both easy and hard depending on the scenario we face. We have some systems that are easy and take not even a minute to set up, while others take a bit longer. We are in the middle of integrating One Identity Safeguard with the IGA solution, Identity Manager. We have some A2A setups, but it is not optimal. We are using RPA for developers, not actually RPA accounts, but that is something we are working on. We are also using the service account password rotation on the asset to some degree, and we are exploring options there. For integrating One Identity Safeguard, figuring out how password rotation works is a bit difficult because we have to make custom integrations. After that, it was no problem really. For the A2A use, it is not as easy as using something like HashiCorp's password management tools. It is mostly for certain features in One Identity Safeguard that I would like some improvements. Some of the things you can do in entitlements, there is a lot you can do there, but not everything is optimal. You have to have duplicates of a lot of things to make it work the way you want.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Right now we are encouraging our customers to use Fudo PAM because it is the only product in PAM technology that we have to offer them."

"This is a solution that I recommend because it is a simple privileged access management system that is done very well."

"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."

"I think that Fudo Privileged Access Management is a very good program."

"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."

"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."

"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."

"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."

"There is ease of implementation. Compared to other PAM solutions, it is easy to implement and use from an administrator's point of view."

"I have found One Identity Safeguard to be stable."

"It's one of the best products we've seen. When you start looking at the functionality and use cases and usability of the product, it's straightforward. They designed this product with the end-user in mind, and they also had the sysadmin who is supporting the product in mind. They really did a nice job. Overall, it's a nice product to work with."

"We use the solution’s “transparent mode” feature for privileged sessions; it is very easy because it is only a simple configuration for our users, we don't have to modify our network, we install it, configure it, and it works, so it is super easy, and the rollout for our users is seamless."

"We have saved approximately thirty to forty percent of our time, and our team is spending more time on critical issues rather than managing passwords."

"Safeguard is a next-generation tool when it comes to privileged access management."

"The customer service and technical support are very good."

"I have found the most useful feature of One Identity Safeguard to be Privileged Sessions."

Cons

"To tell you the truth, I find that Fudo is not very stable and we had some issues during the implementation."

"The configuration is difficult."

"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."

"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."

"The stability is not very good."

"Professional training and certification would be great."

"It needs more marketing."

"Our experience with technical support has been disappointing. We require more prompt and faster response times. We require answers to our questions right away but we haven't received that level of support."

"We have not had any issues with the core product itself, but there is an add-on called SCALUS, which is quite critical to the user experience, and that does not work. They have been having issues with that for quite a long time, like months. That is not great at all."

"Monitoring of the platform should be easier and more functional so that you can have a clear picture of the running service."

"We have issues using Safeguard to connect to and record from the cloud. Currently, they don't have a mechanism to record this type of connection."

"From a management point of view, it would be beneficial if One Identity Safeguard Privilege Password and One Identity Safeguard Privilege Session had a more similar interface."

"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich. We spoke to our Safeguard reps who have acknowledged that some of the reporting features can certainly be improved and that we're not the only customer who has cited this. There are very little out-of-the-box reporting capabilities. You have to build the queries and the report. I believe in the next release they're going to be addressing this."

"Some of our users find the functionality a bit complex, and it could be made more user-friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."

"The full license is expensive but if you plan to use it in a big organization then it is the best option because it is more flexible."

"It is cheaper than CyberArk. Its price is fair."

"The license is around $3,000 per month."

"They have comparable pricing. All identity products are essentially priced in a similar way. It's a per-user base."

"We bought their other products, so it was not that expensive. It is one of those where the more you buy, the cheaper it is."

"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."

"One Identity Safeguard is expensive and the cost goes up as we scale."

"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
