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 went from our teams complaining about the old product every day to not hearing one complaint at all and, as a matter of fact, I hear compliments about how much they love Safeguard."
"Over four years of use, we have not encountered a single system crash or failure, and the product is stable."
"But otherwise, I think it is a good product and a good buy."
"One Identity Safeguard has positively impacted our organization by increasing visibility into privileged user activities, allowing us to track and audit all actions easily, which helps in compliance and security."
"The initial setup of One Identity Safeguard was simple."
"The implementation time was quick. It was basically up and running within a week."
"The solution transparently integrates into the infrastructure and users do not notice it. I would give this feature the highest rating."
"Being able to use a proxy server is an advantage."
"We have successfully overcome the challenges and proved they're the best."
"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."
"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 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."
"Their user and entity behavior analysis algorithms are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"Overall, One Identity Safeguard works well, but it could be improved in terms of UI simplicity and ease of navigation, especially for new users."
"There is room for improvement in the launch module."
"We would like to be able to generate certificate signing requests (CSRs) from the interface for certificates."
"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."
"One Identity Safeguard could be improved by simplifying the user interface and initial configuration process, especially for first-time users."
"The automated change of the passwords, which is now integrated, could be improved to be more flexible regarding different systems."
"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich."
"The reason it is not a perfect ten is mainly because of usability and operational friction in some scenarios."
"The area that needs improvement is reporting."
"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 integration with other tools, like EDRs and other technology tools, can be improved."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As compared to other products, it is reasonable, but the training sessions are too expensive."
"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
"We have a yearly license. The cost depends on how much a company wants to invest in technology. In our organization, we believe in modern digitization and automation processes so we found it affordable. One Identity was not that much less than other solutions and it is not a cheap solution. There were number of cheaper solutions. However, it's the most effective, according to our evaluation."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"They have comparable pricing. All identity products are essentially priced in a similar way. It's a per-user base."
"Its subscription cost is too much, and sometimes, it is very difficult to pitch the solution to the management for cost approval. If the cost is reduced a little bit, it would be easier. If its cost was less, many other organizations that currently cannot afford it would be able to use this technology. I'm sure many organizations around the globe are having issues with identity management, and it is a very difficult task for IT to manage privileged accounts."
"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."
