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

"It offers high availability and enables end users to deploy the solution with 99.999 percent uptime, which is crucial in an enterprise environment with a large number of endpoints."
"We are able to log and get reporting on all privileged activity that is being performed. We like the fact that we can leverage the session recording feature, which is especially valuable when we're dealing with third-party vendors that have to remote into our our boxes and servers to do any work on behalf of the bank. Now, we can record everything they are doing to ensure that they're only doing the changes that were needed. In addition, we use it to leverage knowledge transfer with our internal staff."
"I have found the most useful feature of One Identity Safeguard to be Privileged Sessions."
"This is an extremely stable product."
"One Identity Safeguard has saved us security time, improved security, better compliance, increased trust in employees, and reduced risk since the tools provided by the company are now in safer hands."
"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."
"The whole product solves the privileged access management challenge for our company. We have a secure tunnel, a secure session manager, and automatic logging of sessions, which is good for forensic purposes. We have a rich level of logs and can trace what happened on which machine and see who did what."
"The implementation time was quick. It was basically up and running within a week."
"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."
"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."
"ROI is evident. The ROI is there from cost optimization and everything else."
"Their user and entity behavior analysis algorithms are the most valuable features."
"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

"Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced."
"The customer support for One Identity Safeguard was not very good and definitely needs to be improved."
"One Identity Safeguard could be improved, and some user tools can be enhanced."
"I would like to see an adjustment with more enterprise architecture. You can buy multiple appliances but you can not fully separate different functions, so scaling might be a bit more complicated."
"While One Identity Safeguard is a strong privilege access management solution, there are some areas where improvements can be made."
"Monitoring of the platform should be easier and more functional so that you can have a clear picture of the running service."
"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."
"Support for One Identity Safeguard could be improved because sometimes the support team doesn't have an answer or solution for some bugs. A feature I found in a competitor would make One Identity Safeguard better, and that is the ability to load balance the traffic in the target."
"The area that needs improvement is reporting."
"The support system is not very good as of now."
"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."
"When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing depends on our perspective, our budget, and, of course, the competitors we are taking into account."
"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
"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."
"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"As compared to other products, it is reasonable, but the training sessions are too expensive."
"The license is around $3,000 per month."
"They have comparable pricing. All identity products are essentially priced in a similar way. It's a per-user base."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"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."
