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

"Over four years of use, we have not encountered a single system crash or failure, and the product is stable."
"Customer Service: absolutely perfect Technical Support: Technical support is 10/10, absolutely."
"The system is easy to manage, as it is not a system that you will change everything all of a sudden. It evolves most of the time with customer requests."
"One Identity Safeguard has positively impacted our organization by giving us complete visibility over all privileged access, making compliance audits much easier than before, and ensuring that access is not time-bound, allowing admins access only for the duration they need it."
"All sessions are audited and they are indexed/searchable through the GUI."
"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."
"Integration of One Identity Safeguard has positively affected our operations by centralizing authentication across Linux and Unix, reducing manual account management, and simplifying user access control through Active Directory integration."
"The best feature One Identity Safeguard offers is that it is a pretty new, modern tool that makes extensive use of its API."
"ROI is evident. The ROI is there from cost optimization and everything else."
"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."
"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."
"We have successfully overcome the challenges and proved they're the best."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the launch module. They built in a launch button but they don't have effective instructions for configuring it to allow it to launch an RDP session. They're working on that, but the button is in the live product. If they were going to install something that wasn't useful, they should have just disabled it and not rolled it out with the product."
"I tried to integrate Safeguard with the Oracle YAML as well as something else to manage the groups and users from a different system, like AD or LDAP. This one feature could be better."
"From a usability perspective, what we are finding out is that our privileged domain admin users, in particular, want functionality for extending a checkout session. So we are working with One Identity support to see if there's an enhancement that can be made to the product."
"We should be able to create customized connectors in a better way. For ad hoc or special use cases, I sometimes find we have limitations. Improving the way we develop new connectors for non-typical systems would be beneficial."
"From a management point of view, it would be beneficial if One Identity Safeguard Privilege Password and One Identity Safeguard Privilege Session had a more similar interface."
"I rated One Identity Safeguard nine out of 10 because the stability and control could be better, as there are some problems with stability and errors when we use it."
"We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS."
"Improving the way we develop new connectors for non-typical systems would be beneficial."
"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."
"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 integration with other tools, like EDRs and other technology tools, can be improved."
"The support system is not very good as of now."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Safeguard is cheaper than CyberArk."
"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
"As compared to other products, it is reasonable, but the training sessions are too expensive."
"We bought their other products, so it was not that expensive. It is one of those where the more you buy, the cheaper it is."
"They have comparable pricing. All identity products are essentially priced in a similar way. It's a per-user base."
"It is cheaper than CyberArk. Its price is fair."
"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."
"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."
"When compared to other solutions, it is less expensive."
"The cost is approximately $50 per user per year."
"Their pricing is pretty comfortable. They will work with you on the cost."
