Auditing enhances privileged account security with a fast deployment
The support for the PAM product is not very prompt. Unlike other Manager products that provide remote assistance or support, for PAM, users have to log a case first and may receive a reply in one or two days. This process is slower compared to other products from the same manufacturer.

Straightforward software saves time with its simplicity and useful password management features
Secure password storage is the primary function of N-able Passportal that works well, and all the other features are add-ons. The best advantages of N-able Passportal are that the software is straightforward and easy to use. The ease of use is a significant benefit for N-able Passportal. If you need a degree to figure out how to do three small functions in your software package, it is not worth it because you will have to spend time figuring out what goes wrong. With how N-able Passportal software works, there is a perception of simplicity and straightforwardness. You do not have to sit and figure out what is happening. This is important because it saves time. You can always get more money and clients, but you can never get more time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
"The auditing feature is particularly valuable as it makes privileged account usage auditable."
"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."
"It is user-friendly. Someone who doesn’t have a lot of IT knowledge can work with the product easily."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
"The tool is secure, safe, reliable, and easy to use."
"ManageEngine Password Manager Pro is cheaper than other products, such as BeyondTrust, and is more than 50% cheaper compared to the Boomer solution we used before."
"The most valuable feature of the N-able Passportal is its functionality. You can store your passwords safely, and not just anyone can gain access to them. If you have an onsite system, it can change the password for you on a daily basis. This is a great benefit because you don't have to worry about if the account's breached tomorrow, your pass is going to be changed. It's perfect."
"Passportal also helps manage assets. You can add information about your infrastructure, like routers, including model numbers, operating systems, expiration dates, and licensing."
"The ease of use is a significant benefit for N-able Passportal; if you need a degree to figure out how to do three small functions in your software package, it is not worth it because you will have to spend time figuring out what goes wrong."
"The most valuable features of the N-able Passportal are the password rotations, and the ability to be able to store passwords. You can have it on your phone or your desktop. You're not required to have it only on your desktop computer."
 

Cons

"The support for the PAM product is not very prompt."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
"N-able Passportal can improve the stability because sometimes I can't log in. I had some issues a couple of months ago where I couldn't log in and that was problematic."
"I'd like to see the ability to provide both credential management and documentation management for clients. Currently, they only get access to credential management."
"Sometimes accessing the solution is a bit slow, but that could be due to conditions at many different points. However, some issues that do arise are outside of our control."
"I do not see any return on investment in terms of savings, time saving, or money saving, especially since this economy is struggling."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate the pricing of this solution as a five."
"The price of N-able Passportal is approximately $15 for the license."
