Mahesh Malve - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Business Development Executive at DigitalTrack Solutions Ind Pvt Ltd
Centralized control has strengthened privileged security and simplified audit investigations
While One Identity Safeguard is a strong and reliable PAM solution, there are a few areas where it can be further improved to enhance user experience and scalability. Regarding the user interface and experience, the UI, while functional, can be a bit complex for new users. A more intuitive and modern dashboard with simplified navigation would improve adoption, especially for non-technical stakeholders. Regarding integration flexibility, although it supports major integrations, expanding out-of-the-box connectors for more cloud-native apps, DevOps tools, and SaaS platforms would be beneficial. Faster and simpler API-based integrations could reduce deployment efforts. Regarding scalability and performance in large enterprise environments, performance tuning and scaling can require additional efforts. Enhancing seamless scalability and high availability configuration would improve enterprise readiness.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We deployed it into our company for controlling a client's behavior in our data center. It is very useful to control their connections, such as RDP."
"The best feature One Identity Safeguard offers is that it is a pretty new, modern tool that makes extensive use of its API."
"Safeguard has the ability to record and retrieve in the full-video format."
"One Identity Safeguard has had a strong positive impact on our organization by significantly improving security, control, and accountability around privileged access."
"It provides secure and centralized access to both on-prem and cloud servers, which we did not have before. Previously, there were myriad ways to access our servers, so this centralizing feature is beneficial."
"The transparent mode for privileged sessions is a very good solution."
"One Identity Safeguard positively impacts our organization by reducing the likelihood of breaches from privileged sprawl by removing shared admin passwords and enforcing control checkouts while also improving our investigation times and providing strong forensics from a centralized location."
"Now, once they are logged into the organization and are registered on our ERP system, their complete access will be ready within five seconds, and they will receive an SMS with their username and password so they can start working, which has increased efficiency and effectiveness of the access control function and reduced operational costs while providing services 24/7 on a platform that can be used anytime and anywhere for investigation."
"The most valuable features of Securonix UEBA include insider threat monitoring, which provides complete visibility of user activities, and next-gen AI-based behavior analytics."
"We have successfully overcome the challenges and proved they're the best."
"The most valuable features of Securonix UEBA include insider threat monitoring, which provides complete visibility of user activities, and next-gen AI-based behavior analytics."
"Their user and entity behavior analysis algorithms are the most valuable features."
"The feature dashboard is very well organized and intuitive to use. It organizes information on a timeline which is exactly what we need for insider threat future-analysis."
"One of the most valuable features is UEBA; it's pretty helpful for us to make sure of our thresholds for any of our clients."
"One of the most valuable features is UEBA. It's pretty helpful for us to make sure of our thresholds for any of our clients."
"ROI is evident. The ROI is there from cost optimization and everything else."
 

Cons

"Many team members feel that the biggest friction with One Identity Safeguard relates to access requests, session approvals, and policy changes, which require more clicks than expected."
"When we compare One Identity Safeguard with CyberArk, we know CyberArk has other tools or other features that are more complex and more useful for the customers."
"On a scale of one to ten, the stability is an eight."
"We have issues using Safeguard to connect to and record from the cloud. Currently, they don't have a mechanism to record this type of connection."
"The UI can be more user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"It is a good solution, but it needs more marketing."
"When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced."
"The area that needs improvement is reporting."
"There is room for improvement in the algorithms. Although I said that we have a very solid starting point - our existing library is already very comprehensive - we constantly find areas where we need to develop new algorithms."
"There is room for improvement in the algorithms. Although I said that we have a very solid starting point - our existing library is already very comprehensive - we constantly find areas where we need to develop new algorithms. That is common across platforms. Any vendor with a solid starting point would still need to continue to evolve."
"The integration with other tools, like EDRs and other technology tools, can be improved."
"When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced."
"The area that needs improvement is reporting."
"The support system is not very good as of now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"The full license is expensive but if you plan to use it in a big organization then it is the best option because it is more flexible."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
"It is a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. You don't want to get anything too cheap because then you get cheap stuff and cheap support. That really never helps anybody."
"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."
"One Identity Safeguard is expensive and the cost goes up as we scale."
"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."
"Their pricing is pretty comfortable. They will work with you on the cost."
"When compared to other solutions, it is less expensive."
"The cost is approximately $50 per user per year."
