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

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

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

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

"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."

"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."

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

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

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

"We use the solution’s Approval Anywhere feature which enables us to add an extra layer of security for critical passwords without adding time-consuming approval processes. By using this platform, if someone goes on a vacation, out of office, or needs urgent/planned leave, then our setup will select the functions tied to that person and automatically delegate them to the next person. That person can start performing that duty based on their access. No sharing of passwords is required."

"One Identity Safeguard has positively impacted my organization by improving our security posture, eliminating shared privileged credentials, increasing visibility into admin activity, and making compliance audits faster and more reliable."

"I like that One Identity Safeguard lets you configure the maximum number of connections to the target, a configuration I didn't find in its competitor."

"This is an extremely stable product."

"The system is easy to manage, as it is not a system that you will change everything all of a sudden. It evolves most of the time with customer requests."

"Safeguard has the ability to record and retrieve in the full-video format."

"There are numerous valuable data protection features, including the content and information that offer us more scalable protection as needed."

"Flexible modes are easily integrated into the customer infrastructure."

Cons

"The configuration is difficult."

"The stability is not very good."

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

"Professional training and certification would be great."

"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 product uses a lot of resources in current sessions."

"Even though we have two nodes, there's no way to do an upgrade without taking everything completely offline. It would be nice if they could improve that."

"We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS."

"It takes some time to understand the features of One Identity Safeguard, and it would be more useful if it was easier to set up."

"Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced."

"VMware PCoIP protocol support: Many customers are switching from normal computers/environment to VDI infrastructure and some of them are switching to VMware Horizon that uses PCoIP protocol, which is not supported right now."

"The GUI has room for improvement because it is confusing and cumbersome."

"We have feature requests and would like to see the turnaround times on those features to be faster."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The license is very expensive for us, partly due to inflation and partly because of the exchange rate between the Dollar and the Iranian Rial. We purchased a perpetual license that we've been using up until now, but I believe that we are not going to update it in the future. Instead, we plan to find another third-party to support us with the license, in the sense that we would have access to their license as a shared agreement."

"Its subscription cost is too much, and sometimes, it is very difficult to pitch the solution to the management for cost approval. If the cost is reduced a little bit, it would be easier. If its cost was less, many other organizations that currently cannot afford it would be able to use this technology. I'm sure many organizations around the globe are having issues with identity management, and it is a very difficult task for IT to manage privileged accounts."

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

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

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

"It is more expensive than Secret Server but way less expensive than CyberArk. As a customer, I would like the pricing to be lower, but it has a good price point."

"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."

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