Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 product provides a native user experience without requiring users to install additional software or agents.""The privileged access management module is the most reliable feature.""I like that it's user-friendly.""One valuable feature is that it will support a dedicated database. Delinea provides multiple features, like reporting and remote password changes.""The "App to App" feature has been most impactful. It allows secure communication between applications without requiring direct user access, which is crucial for several applications.""The solution's stability is flawless.""I find it really easy and computer confident, and the experience with the product is really good. Additionally, customizations are easy."

"It's very simple to manage and implement. Its functions are straightforward. You get all the basic features, such as you get the option to unlock the user account if it is locked. You can enforce password policies, and you also have the option to allow them to reset their passwords if they forget it. These were the basic requirements of my company that we could achieve through this product.""One of the most valuable features is the self-service capability. I""Due to ransomware and novel threats, we can no longer allow people to gain domain admin access to our servers with only a username and password. With MFA, they must supply a one-time password sent to them via some authenticator, like Microsoft or Google Authenticator. It could be a text message.""The most valuable feature is the ability for remote users to change their login credentials using their mobile devices.""Having multifactor authentication in Windows machines.""Monitoring is one of the most valuable features for us.""The solution provides wide options for multifactor authentication."

Cons
"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.""An area for improvement in Delinea Secret Server is its integration with ICAP servers.""One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic.""I don't know what kind of a cryptographic it uses to encrypt the password but it should be one of the stronger ones. Some of the cryptos have been accessed by hackers.""What needs improvement? The product can be improved by reducing the number of updates provided.""The integration with the ticketing system ServiceNow is complex.""The initial setup and deployment can be cumbersome.""Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."

More Delinea Secret Server Cons →

"The worst part is that the solution can only be installed or updated on a device if it is physically connected to the local network.""Could be simplified, not user-friendly.""The registration process could be improved. It should be easier for users to register for the service.""There is a lack of specific information provided by the analytics portion of the software.""We need more reports for visualization.""They could improve their security of the products to prevent vulnerabilities."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It isn't terribly expensive."
  • "The price of this solution is good."
  • "The pricing is standard in this business and we have no complaints about it."
  • "Its price is okay. We don't compete on pricing. We seldom use price to win over our competitors. We prefer it this way because if we can sustain the price, we make more margin as well. We don't want the price to go down to the bottom where despite the win, there's no margin at all."
  • "Secret Server is expensive when compared to the cost to some alternatives."
  • "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."
  • "They are priced quite well."
  • More Delinea Secret Server Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Using this solution costs us about $1,200 USD per year."
  • "You purchase the license for one time, and you can use it for a lifetime. The only thing is that in order to get support, you need to upgrade your product to the latest solution. You need to keep a support contract with them for which you have to pay some amount. It's a very small amount for renewing their support contract. Overall, it's very cost-effective."
