Passportal centralizes and securely manages client credentials and sensitive information, enhancing both security and efficiency.
Passportal offers the capability to automatically rotate passwords, allowing users to set customizable policies for expiration dates and password strength. You can define requirements for the number of letters, symbols, numbers, and case sensitivity, and the system will generate passwords accordingly. Policies can be updated as needed to maintain security. As a comprehensive password and information management solution, Passportal supports the addition of assets, licensing details, SSL certificates, domains, articles, and documents. When referring to adding assets, this means documenting relevant information, not monitoring them. For example, when we onboard a new engineer responsible for managing clients, we create a user profile for them in Passportal and grant access to the pertinent client information. This centralized access ensures they have all necessary details in one place, streamlining their workflow.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
"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 auditing feature is particularly valuable as it makes privileged account usage auditable."
"The tool is secure, safe, reliable, and easy to use."
"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
"It is user-friendly. Someone who doesn’t have a lot of IT knowledge can work with the product easily."
"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 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

"There is room for improvement in making the UI more user-friendly."
"The user interface could be improved and made more user friendly."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
"The support for the PAM product is not very prompt."
"The support for the PAM product is not very prompt."
"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."
"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."
 

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."
"For its value, Passportal's price is affordable."
"The price of N-able Passportal is approximately $15 for the license."
