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.

With a great support team and stability, the tool also offers scalability to its users
The initial setup was easy. One just needs to write the initial configuration. Then, in senhasegura's cloud applications, you can use it. I just deploy it in PoC environments or demo environments and not for production. Hence, it takes much less time than I imagine when comparing its deployment in production. I think it can be deployed in two or three days. My company has partnered with senhasegura. We just downloaded the main machine for virtual use. Then, we get the key to install it. Before, you just need to try the general configuration. Then, you will have the web applications ready. Then, you can just discover the accounts or any devices that you want to manage the accounts and manage the credentials.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The transparent mode for privileged sessions is a very good solution."
"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."
"Two-factor authentication has saved us from a couple of brute force attacks on a couple of our C-level executives."
"One Identity Safeguard has positively impacted my organization by improving our security posture, eliminating shared privileged credentials, increasing visibility into admin activity, and making compliance audits faster and more reliable."
"The initial setup of One Identity Safeguard was simple."
"It is easy to manage. There is a very logical, clear user interface. Also, the integration of scripts is thoughtfully implemented. Overall, it's a nice product to manage."
"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."
"One of the most important aspects is that it is very easy to use and install. It is also agentless, so all of the operations happen more smoothly than any other product."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The reason it is not a perfect ten is mainly because of usability and operational friction in some scenarios."
"Unfortunately, my experience with Safeguard by One Identity's customer support is not very positive. They tend to respond slowly, generally do not find solutions effectively, and it is challenging to request calls that could resolve issues more quickly."
"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich. We spoke to our Safeguard reps who have acknowledged that some of the reporting features can certainly be improved and that we're not the only customer who has cited this. There are very little out-of-the-box reporting capabilities. You have to build the queries and the report. I believe in the next release they're going to be addressing this."
"The high availability function of the box itself requires a long time to switch over from one appliance to another, so there is room for improvement."
"The integration part seems a bit challenging because some tools cannot be integrated properly with it."
"I would like to see an adjustment with more enterprise architecture."
"The deployment affects our privileged users because it takes a long time for them to request privileges, which impacts the SLA."
"The automated change of the passwords, which is now integrated, could be improved to be more flexible regarding different systems."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"The license is around $3,000 per month."
"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
