Password manager has strengthened daily device security and has simplified secure sharing
While Keeper Enterprise Password Manager has a good interface for password management, I believe they can make the feature for Privileged Access Management a bit more user-friendly, as right now it is somewhat complicated to get a privileged access manager running in both development and production environments. Regarding improvements needed for the deployment of Keeper Enterprise Password Manager, I would like to see a simple way to install requirements on servers so they can easily be accessed through it and use Privileged Access Management. Right now the installation is somewhat complex as there is scripting to be done. It would be great for that setup to be more simple for operators.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have managed to automate the creation of all employees, and the company's clients and then assign the accounts/accesses according to business need."
"It is a totally secure way of accessing clients through various application portals for more than ten EU countries, just by using single sign-on."
"Provided more secure computing."
"Single Sign-On functionality is valuable because the core purpose of the product is to allow universal (or bespoke) SSO for application suites."
"TAM component integration and their SSO capabilities and transparency are the most valuable features I have found."
"Before the solution was implemented it took around 2-3 weeks to get all the necessary account information for a new employee in my organization, and since implementation this now only takes a few minutes."
"It is a very stable and good product."
"The WebSEAL reverse proxy is great for protecting your critical systems."
"What I like the most is the fact that I can just mark anything and it is automatically copied into the clipboard."
"Possibility to login using the fingerprint sensor on Android/iPhone."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
"Keeper helped me stay organized by not having to write down passwords and logins, securely storing all my information in the cloud in alphabetical order, automatically backing it up, and allowing access only to me or people I authorize, which is a huge time saver and a life saver for me."
"Keeper Enterprise Password Manager has impacted my organization positively because it is better to have your passwords recorded in a vault where it is more secure than just having it elsewhere."
"Keeper Enterprise Password Manager has positively impacted my organization by providing us less downtime and more efficiency across all of our organizations."
"It syncs with all devices and supports all platforms."
"Stronger passwords are being used across the board in our organization."
 

Cons

"The profiling element is incredibly robust, but also equally as complex, it requires an off-site course to be able to understand the context or the plethora of options available."
"The TAMeB policy server is not scalable."
"The whole product could be made into one suite instead of multiple components which are essentially a part of the same infrastructure."
"Multi-factor authentication with social integration needs to improve."
"The license model is pretty complex."
"I have not tested the stability yet."
"I would rate the technical support a 6/10."
"There is Java process that hangs in WebSphere almost every month."
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
"In my opinion, Keeper Enterprise Password Manager could be improved by allowing the creation of templates, basically role templates, that we could deploy to other clients without having to go through the Commander CLI, but rather through the graphical interface."
"Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities."
"Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps."
"Ability to set up password profiles that can predefine custom fields and password complexity."
"The technical support has no experience."
"Needs to improve KeeperFill on iOS."
"I think Keeper Enterprise Password Manager can be improved by ensuring that you do not have to sign in every day to the vault."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The IBM prices are, as ever, extortionate, even with a business partnership, and high levels of discounts."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Its price is reasonable."
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
