Delinea Secret Server Reviews

I use Delinea Secret Server for demonstration purposes while talking to clients, for internet access management, and user monitoring.

I like that it's user-friendly.

Support could be better. I have heard about a lot of problems in the Bangladesh market. People are saying that there are support issues. So, Delinea should focus on support and services.

I have been using Delinea Secret Server for one or two months.

Delinea Secret Server is a stable solution.

Delinea Secret Server is a scalable solution.

Technical support could be better. The support centers can't solve the issues.

On a scale from one to five, I will give technical support a two.

The initial setup is straightforward. For demonstration purposes, it does not take much time. But it takes up to four months to go into production.

I would tell potential users that they should focus on local partners with a local support team. This is becasue Delinea can't resolve the issues these days. I have seen a lot of cases in Bangladesh where the OEM can't resolve the issues. The application server is full of logs, and sometimes it needs to clear all the logs and files because it can become slow. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Delinea Secret Server a six.

We recently had to reset every company password globally, which I am in the process of undertaking at the moment. 

It seems to be working well for us. While we did encounter several glitches, I believe this owed itself to the solution not having been fully deployed, even though they owned it for some time. We have since deployed it fully and are learning as we go, especially as concerns the various international laws, such as the GDPR. Yet, it works well for us. 

We recently had to do a global reset of every company password, something we are still in the process of doing. While we had a few glitches, this likely attributes itself to them not having fully deployed, even as they owned the solution for a while. Now that we have done so, we find ourselves to be learning as we go, especially as concerns the various international laws, such as the GDPR. This said, it works well for us. 

As I am partial to CyberArk, I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten, owing to the minor glitches I mentioned. 

The initial setup was very straightforward for us. However, as it would not deploy easily with our 2019 servers, we were forced to make a few code changes. It continued to deploy for 2012, something I found to be odd, but started working flawlessly only after I made a few code changes. 

My only negative thing to say about Thycotic would involve the servicing not having been written for 2019.

I have, perhaps, a year-and-a-half worth of experience with Thycotic Password Reset Server. 

As I am partial to CyberArk, I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten, owing to the minor glitches I mentioned.

This said, the solution's stability is flawless. It's very stable.

We have had dealings with technical support, but have not encountered any problems with them. They helped walk us through so many things that we simply did not know. My only negative thing to say about Thycotic would involve the servicing not having been written for 2019. 

I did a PLC with them while at IQVIA, but when I came over to CNHI, they actually owned 400-license, so I went ahead with its implementation.

We are trying to capture feedback with CyberArk, as well. 

I started my certifications in CyberArk, but I deal with identity and access management. 

As I am partial to CyberArk, I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten, owing to the minor glitches I mentioned. I would likely rate it as a ten, but one tends to stick with what he knows. 

The initial setup was very straightforward for us. Since it would not deploy easily with our 2019 servers, we were forced to make a few code changes. It continued to deploy for 2012, something I found to be odd, but, once I went in and made some code changes, it worked flawlessly. It took us about two days to work through this, but we got it done. 

It seems to be working well for us. While we did encounter several glitches, I believe this owed itself to the solution not having been fully deployed, even though they owned it for some time. We have since deployed it fully and are learning as we go, especially as concerns the various international laws, such as the GDPR. Yet, it works well for us.

I am not aware of the licensing costs, as they already owned everything but had not put it in the infrastructure. I am simply unaware at the moment, but will find out, as I am the director of the area. 

At present, the solution is a hybrid, but we plan to put it totally in the cloud. 

I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten. 

We provide Thycotic Secret Server as well as use it.

Thycotic Secret Server is used for data security.

The privileged access management, which is the Safe Access Model, is the most valuable feature.

Some of the features need improvement.

Improvements are needed in session management, behavioral analytics, and the reporting segment.

I have been working with Thycotic Secret Server for three or four years.

For the most part, Thycotic Secret Server is stable.

Thycotic Secret Server is relatively scalable. Scalability is good, but it does have its limitations. It's scalable to an extent.

Availability of technical support has always been a concern.

I have used several products, such as Beyond Trust, and CyberArk.

The initial setup is straightforward.

I can't give you an estimate, as it has been a while since we had an installation, but it was straightforward.

It takes half a day to install.

We have a team of three people to maintain this solution.

Most customers opt for a yearly license. I don't believe that I have seen anyone pays on a monthly basis.

I would recommend this solution if it aligned with their use cases.

I would rate Thycotic Secret Server a seven out of ten.

We have used Thycotic Secret Server for some secret management and integrated it with some applications. We mainly used it for Privileged Account Discovery and the management of them.

The discovery engine is really robust and flexible. It had some session management features that are better compared to some other vendors. Overall the GUI is very good and straightforward to operate compared to other solutions. For example, CyberArk and Hitachi tend to be hard to navigate.

When working with larger enterprises Thycotic Secret Server becomes a little cumbersome to work with because they do not allow as much flexibility as some of the other competitors, such as CyberArk. Thycotic Secret Server could improve by being more flexible when it comes to customization, and increase the number of API integrations.

In an upcoming release, there should be more AI and machine learning features. Some of the competitors are leaning in this direction.

I have been using Thycotic Secret Server for approximately two years.

There can be some stability issues when you use the video record feature. You have to be careful when you turn on the video recording features and what you want to record because the data adds up quickly. There is a performance impact to your network as well, that has to be planned for. Users think it is a fancy feature and they want to use it but you have to plan ahead of time before you use it.

The solution is able to be scaled and it is not too difficult.

The last organization I implemented the solution in they have approximately 900 users using the solution.

The technical support is good. They were able to give us support when we needed it.

I have used other solutions, such as CyberArk and Hitachi.

The setup was straightforward.

When comparing the price of Thycotic Secret Server with other solutions it is reasonable.

My advice to those wanting to implement this solution is they should know their requirements. It is a great solution it fits your requirements. It is important to know what you need to integrate with and how.

I rate Thycotic Secret Server an eight out of ten.

We are a Thycotic partner. We use Thycotic extensively, and we also do a lot of implementations for them. Generally, it is for privilege access management and session recording capabilities. 

A few clients have used it as a proxy capability, and the functionality there is that the privileged accounts have access from their workstations to the servers. In order to get access, they have to be basically proxied through Thycotic for an SSH or RDP connection, and then you have a control capability for auditing and session recording.

We have used pretty much every version since 2018, including the latest version. We have deployed it to AWS and on-prem.

I like that it is Windows-based. It is good that primarily, it is not an appliance. Some of the other applications in the space, such as a Quest Software CPAM or a Safeguard, are appliances, so you can't deploy the ends of them. With Thycotic, you can either install your Temporal Protection module physically in the VM host, or you can use BouncyCastle for high-security module capabilities.

One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic.

I have been using this solution since 2018.

There is nothing major. There were minor things that were really edge cases. We've had an issue in 2019 where if you went through the web interface to change your password, the agent that actually did the password change on the backend would go and make the change to the main controller or the active directory domain controller. After that, without waiting long enough for the change to finish committing, meaning waiting for zero nanoseconds, it would go and check to see if the change had been accomplished. So, they introduced a slight delay of two to three milliseconds, and that fixed the problem. It was really straightforward, but it took a little while to demonstrate what the actual problem was.

With our latest versions, the scalability is very good. They have a scale-out and scale-up capability depending on what your needs are and how distributed you want the capabilities to be. I don't know any other products on the market that are better at scaling.

We have deployed it to small organizations with 10,000 users. Our largest organization has 10 million users.

I would rate them a nine out of 10. You get forwarded around a bit, but you actually get somebody who can really help and solve the problem for you.

It is very straightforward. We generally do an automated deployment by using a script-based capability that we've created. It works out really well. 

It is a kind of self-serving advice, but I would advise getting a partner to deploy it for you. There are a lot of really good partners out there, not just us.

In terms of the maturity of their product, there are a lot of Enterprise capabilities that they haven't yet brought into the market, but after it has been called out to them that there is a customer who needs a capability, they're very quick and responsive around doing development to get that capability in, which is something I like. There was an Enterprise scalability capability where you have high availability and multi-site failover. One of the versions that they had back in the 2018 and 2019 timeframe did not support that capability. We called out some recommendations to them, and they had it in the product in the next major revision.

I would rate Thycotic Secret Server a 10 out of 10 because I am not familiar with any products that are capable of going on-prem and have a superior function set.

We use the solution to store all of our secrets. For example, passwords, usernames, and other credentials. These credentials can be from many places, such as service accounts, bank accounts, and key pairs. It also has the functionality if, for example, a contractor requests to log into a specific server, they would use the Secret Server to log in to the server session that is monitored and he or she would be logging in without the actual real credentials. It is also on a rotating password system.

I have found most valuable the automatic scheduled password rotation and remote desktop monitoring. Additionally, the documentation is readily available and easy to find and the dashboard is straightforward.

I would like to see scheduled reports in a future release.

I have been using this solution within the past 12 months.

I have found the solution to be very stable.

You can set up two different servers and the process is straightforward. The solution is scalable and we have 70 users using it in my organization.

We might increase usage in the future but it all depends because currently all of the operations teams have been provided for. If the operations team grows, there would be room for more usage.

The technical support needs improvement. For example, if you have any problems on the server configuring the IIS, they would provide you very limited details and they would tell you the problem is on your end. They are limited to only supporting their application, even if you have the slightest problem assessing their application through IIS they will refer you to contact Microsoft.

Additionally, the sales team could be more friendly and helpful.

I would rate the technical support of Thycotic Secret Server a seven out of ten.

The installation was straightforward.

There is an annual license fee per user and the price is fair.

I rate Thycotic Secret Server an eight out of ten.

The tool has many models. The tool also has a good cloud version. Also, the customers need not control any components on the solution side. The product's licensing model is also good since customers can choose a price that is most useful for them. The solution also supports password management for the users in your organization.  

The tool should integrate additional features like OCR. 

I have been working with the tool for two years. 

The product is stable. 

The product is scalable. 

The tool's product support is nice. 

The tool's setup is fast and simple. The product's deployment follows a step-by-step process. 

I would rate the tool a nine out of ten. I would recommend using the solution. It has many features like password management. You need to also evaluate the vendor before finalizing the product. 

The product can be improved by reducing the number of updates provided and limiting notifications to mainly major updates.

I rate customer service and support as six out of ten.

Neutral

The initial setup was a bit complex. I rate the process as six out of ten.

The licensing costs are expensive for this solution. I rate it five out of ten.

I rate the solution seven out of ten. The solution is good but can be improved by reducing the number of updates provided and limiting notifications to mainly major updates.

We use Delinea Secret Server for password rotations for end-point access.

The most valuable feature of Delinea Secret Server is secret password management.

Delinea Secret Server can improve by extending the monitoring policies and making the performance better.

I have been using Delinea Secret Server for approximately six months.

The stability of the Delinea Secret Server is okay, but other solutions are better, such as BeyondTrust.

Delinea Secret Server is scalable.

We have approximately 1,000 end-users using this solution.

I have not contacted the support from Delinea Secret Server.

The initial setup of the Delinea Secret Server is easy. The installation and other processes take approximately three to four hours.

There is an annual license needed to use Delinea Secret Server.

My company decided to use this solution because of its privileged access management.

I recommend this solution to others.

I rate Delinea Secret Server a ten out of ten.

One valuable feature is that it will support a dedicated database. Delinea provides multiple features, like reporting and remote password changes.

The UI needs improvement because the interface is a little clumsy.

I've been using it for almost two years.

It's stable.

It is scalable and is better than other solutions. We have 400 users in our company.

We can't say that technical support is good because they respond according to their time zone, and we are not in the same time zone. I would give them a six out of ten.

Neutral

The deployment was not difficult and took one and a half months.

We have an enterprise license as well as a user license and a support license.

I can recommend this solution and will rate it at eight on a scale from one to ten.
