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

"One Identity Safeguard has had a strong positive impact on our organization by significantly improving security, control, and accountability around privileged access."
"I have found One Identity Safeguard to be stable."
"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."
"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."
"The Transparent Mode is the number one advantage of the product."
"I like the discovery functionality and the change password feature through the check-in. I also like the bulk import with the help of templates that come with it out of the box. With the help of these few features, my tasks are made easier."
"Once set up correctly, it provides strong security, better control over privileged access, and improves auditing and compliance significantly."
"The solution transparently integrates into the infrastructure and users do not notice it. I would give this feature the highest rating."
"Their user and entity behavior analysis algorithms are the most valuable features."
"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."

"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."
 

Cons

"The SPS could be a lot easier to administrate and the parts should be unified, from a design perspective, so that I can recognize the systems as being part of the same package. They feel like they have been forced together."
"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."
"We have feature requests and would like to see the turnaround times on those features to be faster."
"The product uses a lot of resources in current sessions."
"The GUI has room for improvement because it is confusing and cumbersome."
"The UI can be more user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"The support system is not very good as of now."
"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."
"When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced."
"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."
"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."
"The area that needs improvement is reporting."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Safeguard is cheaper than CyberArk."
"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"The pricing depends on our perspective, our budget, and, of course, the competitors we are taking into account."
"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 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."
"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."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"When compared to other solutions, it is less expensive."
"Their pricing is pretty comfortable. They will work with you on the cost."
"The cost is approximately $50 per user per year."
