One Identity Safeguard Reviews

We use One Identity Safeguard to manage our privileged accounts.

We use One Identity Safeguard on both physical and virtual appliances.

One Identity Safeguard uses a secure remote access feature that does not use a VPN. This is important because it is cheaper and more secure than implementing a VPN for remote access.

People can start using the solution after five days of training.

We don't need to use VPN for remote access.

One Identity Safeguard is slow and not user-friendly.

Managing remote access for privileged users is difficult because it requires a lot of customization.

Current integration with other solutions requires custom API development. I would like to see out-of-the-box integration built into One Identity Safeguard, similar to other solutions.

The deployment affects our privileged users because it takes a long time for them to request privileges, which impacts the SLA.

I have been using One Identity Safeguard for nearly three years.

One Identity Safeguard is unstable. Many bugs affect its performance, particularly when generating bundle batches and performing discovery.

One Identity Safeguard is scalable, but its performance degrades as it is scaled up.

Customer support is a nightmare. They take a long time to respond to tickets, and when they don't understand the issue, they stall by requesting logs.

Negative

I previously used BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, which is a better solution because it includes recording and remote access out of the box, whereas One Identity Safeguard requires us to integrate each of those components separately. Additionally, each component is a different appliance.

The initial setup is straightforward. The installation takes a couple of hours. One person is required for the deployment.

One Identity Safeguard is expensive and the cost goes up as we scale.

Licensing fees increase as we expand, as does the cost of basic support, which allows us to open tickets. Additionally, we must pay to update outdated appliances.

I would rate One Identity Safeguard three out of ten.

I only recommend One Identity Safeguard for small businesses.

When using One Identity Safeguard, we need to be patient.

We use Safeguard for managing privileged passwords only, using physical appliances.

So far, I haven't seen any type of improvement from using this solution when compared with other products in the identity and access management space. It has been neutral.

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.

We also use the Secure Remote Access feature for privileged users. Access is based on group membership and with that membership they connect to the remote machine. It's an easy process to manage. 

The main thing that needs improvement is the slowness. Apart from that, the change password check-in feature also needs improvement because it is not working perfectly accurately.

I have been using One Identity Safeguard for the last two and a half years. I work as an implementer and provide support operations to our clients.

It's not a stable solution, but it's not bad. It's neutral in terms of stability.

It's not scalable.

We are not using their Premier Support, but I am okay with the vendor's regular support. But if the product is running on an unsupported version, that is a very negative point. They should support unsupported versions as well so that their customers are not stuck somewhere in between.

Neutral

As an organization, we are using other PAM solutions for other projects, but I'm not sure which other solutions are in use.

The initial setup for Safeguard is straightforward. Because it was deployed a long time ago in our organization, before my tenure, my expertise is based on adding to clusters. If we are going to add clients within a cluster, it depends on the speed, meaning how the network connectivity is between the cluster and the target device.

In terms of the effect of deployment on users, they are provisioned, with the help of group membership, into Safeguard. Once they are assigned to a particular group, they can follow the previous sites. Based on the previous site, they can log in and check out the password of their privileged account.

As for the amount of training needed, it depends on the solution. If the solution is only for privileged passwords, about three weeks' training is required to understand the solution. And if the server for privileges is also integrated with the solution, it will take a month or as much as 45 days.

We have an implementation team and an operations team. Between them, there are a total of five or six people required for this solution to deploy and maintain it.

I'm not aware of the product cost, but if it's going to cost more, first they have to maintain and stabilize the product.

My impression of the form factor of the Safeguard physical appliance is not good and not bad. It's neutral. Similarly, feedback about the usability and functionality is neutral.

My advice, if you have the budget, is to buy other products, like CyberArk Privileged Access Manager or BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management. If you don't have that kind of budget you can use this product.

We use it to link our virtual systems. We have Windows and Linux, and we have some applications. We use One Identity Safeguard to connect to them. We also use Password Vault, and we do session monitoring.

I am one version behind the latest version. I usually wait before doing an update to make sure that there are no problems with the new release.

One Identity Safeguard helps with accountability. We now know which person is accessing which machine. It also helps to make sure that they are secured, and that everyone knows what changes they need.

We have used the transparent mode and non-transparent mode for privileged sessions. The transparent mode is more difficult than the normal mode, but with the help of the documentation, we figured out how to do the necessary configuration and use this mode. Generally, we use the normal mode. We do not use the transparent mode. 

We use the Secure Remote Access feature for privileged users. It was very easy to manage remote access for privileged users by using this feature. When our users cannot be physically present at our place, they can access the resources using the Starling account. It is easy.

The Secure Remote Access feature does not make use of a VPN. This is very important for us because there are some problems with using VPN, so it is easier to use something like Starling. We can be sure that our users can access the network even from home and that the sessions are secure.

I have worked with other One Identity solutions. I have used One Identity Defender, One Identity SPP, and One Identity SPS. They worked very well for our users. We also use the authentication service to control the Linux machines with Active Directory accounts. They work well with each other. I have also used Safeguard Remote Access. I tried its features with Safeguard to allow our users to connect to the sessions by using the cloud so that they do not need to log in to the company servers.

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. Our end-users find it easy. They have a web application. They only need to enter the credentials, and they can access the Safeguard session. They can use it very fast without any problems. Its learning curve is very low.

We can discover Windows and Linux machines, but we would also like to discover databases. It is very important for us. I have heard that in the new version, we can discover databases, but I have not tried it yet, so I am not sure if the new version does it properly or still needs some work. 

We would like to have the option of importing assets by using the CSV file. It was available in the earlier versions, but it is not available now.

I have been using this solution for about two years.

It is very stable. They always release new updates if there are any issues. For example, for the Log4j issue that happened a couple of months ago, they released an update to solve the issue and make sure that no user is affected by it. It is based on the Linux machine, so it is very stable.

I did not face any problems. It is very scalable, and it can be used for a small company or a big company without any problems.

Currently, there are about 20 users who are using it.

We have used their regular support, not the premier support. When we have any problems related to it, we open a ticket. They always help us. We might have to provide them with additional things so that they are able to troubleshoot better, but they are always helpful. I would rate their support a 9 out of 10.

Positive

We did not use any other solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. We have two installation types. We have Safeguard for Privileged Passwords and Safeguard for Privileged Sessions. For Safeguard for Privileged Passwords, we just need to import and the whole organization will be done. The process for Safeguard for Privileged Sessions is also simple. There are no problems.

The deployment duration depends on the number of systems, the number of users, and the number of applications. In a small company, it might take about two weeks or three weeks.

The deployment did not affect our privileged users. We just needed some time to get used to it. We were not using any PAM product before, so it took some time to get used to using it. It is more restrictive than the Active Directory system, but it is for the best.

For managing and deploying the solution, I took technical training. It was about five-day training with One Identity. After that, I started its deployment. In case of any problem, we could check several resources. We could check the administration guide or forums. We could also open a support ticket with One Identity. For the end-users, I gave the training, and it took one or two days at the most.

I deployed it myself.

We checked out a couple of solutions, but I was not a part of the selection process.

It is a very easy solution. In case of any problem, you can contact the distributor or the vendor, and they will help you.

I have worked with physical and virtual appliances. We went for virtual appliances because they are easy for us. We have servers in our company, so we have the space and resources to install them.

I would rate One Identity Safeguard a 10 out of 10. I have used it for some time, and I enjoyed working with it.

We have more than 1,000 servers or application servers, and we have several layers of teams. We have super admins, system admins, and operations staff, and we also have application vendors using the system. In such a large environment, it was really difficult for us to do identity management on a daily basis. We had new people joining the team, and we also had people leaving. We had to put in additional manpower to monitor these activities and comply with the regulations. That was the main reason we moved to automation with the One Identity solution. We are using their Privileged Account Management solution.

We have virtual appliances. We don't have physical ones.

We have several data centers located all over the globe. Previously, if someone needed access or certain permissions, we had to manually go to our Active Directory, identify the user, and give permission. We had to do that one by one. When we had hundreds of new joiners, it was a time-consuming activity. Sometimes, this activity would take more than two days. One Identity has made all this easier. Monitoring has become much easier, and I can invest the energy in other things instead of monitoring which user is doing what. It has become a one-console management for us.

For my team, it has reduced the task of monitoring who did what and using which ID by 80%. They only have to do 20% of the work than before.

We are using all of the access features. It is much easier for a new user to adopt this solution. It also works perfectly fine with a VPN.

All the features are promising, but we love the reporting feature because we can get each and every report. That's a major compliance requirement. Its reporting is really amazing, and it has made life a lot easier.

Its setup is quick. It is easy to set up and operate. It doesn't matter whether you have a deep IT background or not.

Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced.

In terms of features, I'm completely satisfied with it. I am not expecting any more features. Its cost is the only issue. Everything else is okay.

We introduced this product in our organization in 2014.

It is pretty stable.

It is very scalable. We recently increased the number of licenses. Previously, we had a thousand servers, but now, the number has increased. The number of users has also increased. So, we upgraded our system. 

We are using it mostly for privileged users, developers, and system administrators. In total, we have around 300 users. We have plans to increase its usage. We have some upcoming projects where we want to use it on a larger basis. We have plans to use it for DevOps users and third-party vendors, but it will take a little bit of time.

We have not integrated the solution with any other parts of the business, such as DevOps, RPA, or cloud targets. We are evolving day by day. We are upgrading our technology, and we have plans to do that in the future.

We had premium support initially, but we don't require that now. We didn't encounter any critical issues. We are using their regular support. I would rate their support a nine out of ten.

Positive

We were not using another solution previously. Privilege management was a really tough task before the One Identity solution.

It was straightforward. Of course, when you are introducing a new product, you need to do a little bit of research, but the steps were very simple. You don't need much technical knowledge, and you don't need to go so deep to do the configuration. You can just have a look at the setup start guide. Anyone should be able to do it easily.

Our deployment took around six months because we did a few PoC. We also tested it in different system environments before bringing it to the production environment. Out of these six months, we spent almost two months doing the PoC with other products, and then for two months, we put it in the UAT environment or the test environment, and then we brought it into the production environment. So, overall, it took six months for the rollout.

The deployment wasn't disruptive for our privileged users because they were working with the old method while we were implementing it. So, there was no pause during the implementation. Once we completely rolled out One Identity, they started using it.

To start using the solution, you at least need knowledge of the policies and configurations available. You require a little bit of training because one change is going to impact thousands of users.

When we did the deployment, we had a team of about 30 people. Now, we don't have a dedicated team for its maintenance. We have a team of about 15 people doing other activities and managing various technologies, including One Identity.

I have definitely seen an ROI. It is not necessarily in terms of cost. My work has reduced, and I'm able to focus the saved energy or time working on other technologies or implementing new things in other areas of my organization.

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.

We did PoC to identify different solutions. We tried several solutions, but it didn't work out. We did a PoC with the One Identity solution, and it was easy to manage because it helped us to meet all the compliance requirements and do other things. That's why we went with this solution.

I would recommend it if you are looking for a privilege management or identity management solution. If you are having challenges with reporting and compliance, it will certainly be helpful because you will get a lot of details for auditing and monitoring purposes.

I would rate it a nine out of ten. It is an amazing product, but its cost needs improvement.

With Safeguard, there are two virtual appliances. There is one that helps you manage passwords and then there is another one that helps you record the sessions. You can configure it to record whatever you do when you make the remote calls.  

We use this solution for a bank. My current project is to onboard all the bank's security assets onto Safeguard. It will be used for admins to have secure access to the server.  

The part of this product that I like the most is the transparent mode. That is the number one advantage of the product. I also like the ease-of-use. That is what Quest is known for. The interface is interactive, relatively easy-to-use.  

I like the fact that we are using a proxy server. Also, I like the fact that it is integrated in such a way that I can connect to my Linux and Unix resources using my AD credentials. They map the AD credentials to Linux accounts. So, when I am connected to my AD accounts, it acts as a sort of proxy to convert it to the Unix account that it is configured for. That is quite useful.  

The only part of the Safeguard solution that I think could be a problem over time is the amount of storage it takes in the sessions. For example, because it records in real-time video it takes a lot of resources. So, it has not been a problem yet, but we are looking at a solution where we allocate the cost of that additional capacity differently. Then there will be enough resources to compensate for whatever the storage needs are. It just takes a large amount of storage for each current session.  

Another thing that I would like to see them improve is that I would like them to make the transparent board a little bit more transparent. The transparent mode is something I use often and it is the best feature of the product but that is also why I see how it can be improved. It might just be a little bit easier to use.  

We are a long-time Quest partner and have only been using the product for the past five months. We just got onboarded to the One Identity product. This is my first project with One Identity.  

One of the things I really like about the One Identity solution is the fact that it can be configured in active-active cluster mode. It is just a little pricey because you have to purchase the additional licensing just to be able to do an active-active configuration.  

But I like it also because it is a virtual appliance. This means I can configure a high-availability cluster anyhow I want. If I have it on a VMware cluster, I can enable high-availability or any virtual cluster solution that makes sure it is highly available. I would do that using VMware storage. This makes it a more stable and flexible solution.  

The fact that I do not have to worry about other incidental things is good. I am not connected to an external database server. So all the dependencies, patching, and additional setup is something I do not have to do on the One Identity appliance. Everything is on a hardware appliance. In other words, I do not really even have to worry about securing my security device. It may not be the first thing to think about, but because you deployed a security device, now you have to worry about securing it. As it is all-in-one as a hardware appliance, I do not have to worry about all that.  

We have not had any issues with scalability to this point and it is handling our capacity and needs. The only potential issue would be budgeting for additional licensing, which would not be a problem in our case, and handling the resource usage. These are not really limiting.  

Between the banking client and our company, not everyone has been onboarded yet to the One Identity Safeguard. But in the end, we are looking at probably about 500 servers and I think a total of about 180 admins. This seems realistic using this product.  

My impression of support is that the guys there are very helpful. They are eager to jump in and to help you out. Yes, I think it is a great service.  

I think that the initial setup was very straight forward. Pretty much a piece of cake, actually. With our implementation strategy, the deployment actually took only about two hours. That is including the discovery of the assets. It is a relatively large enterprise network, so discovery can potentially take some time. This was very reasonable.  

The approximate cost on a yearly basis is in the ballpark of about 80 grand, $80,000. That is for about 100 servers. That is the standard license fee. There are not really any additional costs once you purchase that. Sometimes you can have professional services included with it. For example, if you take a week of professional services or if you need them to do the install. That is the only additional charge.  

As a long-time Quest partner, this was an easy choice to make. Because we were already partners it made sense to work with their other solutions.  

The advice I would give to organizations considering this solution would be that before they make a commitment they need to try to find a local support resource. They will want to be able to get local support because that can be critical. But otherwise, I think it is a good product and a good buy. I would buy it again. As a partner, I would also sell it again because I am confident in it as a product and a solution.  

On a scale from one to ten, where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate the One Identity Safeguard solution as a nine-point-five out of ten. I'm very happy. If I have to choose an integer, it would have to be a nine. Ten would mean it is perfect and there are things I think can be improved.  

We use this solution to control the access of privileged users, such as application administrators, to the internal network. This solution allows us to record and log user sessions.

We use virtual appliances on the VMware platform. The virtualization of such services allows us to flexibly scale our hardware configuration and gives significantly more opportunities for building a stable structure. 

This solution allowed us to provide remote access to the company's internal infrastructure in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It made this access more transparent and controlled for information security departments.

We easily integrated this product with our SIEM system for collecting events. Thanks to this integration, we were able to build convenient, regular reports on privileged user connections. Therefore, our information security units can better see who is connecting to the remote infrastructure.

The most valuable feature is the logging sessions with their visualization, which is video recording. This functionality allows us to restore the actions of a user in the event of any incidents.

The solution transparently integrates into the infrastructure and users do not notice it. I would give this feature the highest rating.

While the "transparent mode" feature did not affect the monitoring in any way, it led to an increase in the convenience of connecting users.

This solution visualizes RDP sessions and logs SSH sessions.

I would like to see support for RDP over HTTPS so this product can be used in conjunction with the Microsoft terminal.

I would like to visualize SSH sessions.

I would like built-in traffic balancing mechanisms with the built-in load balancing mechanism when using several instances.

About four years.

Over four years of use, we have not encountered a single system crash or failure. The product is stable.

When increasing the number of users, we can rather easily add to virtual appliances processors and memory, or disks for storing records, which is more difficult to do on a hardware (physical) appliance.

We have two administrators involved in the deployment, configuration, and maintenance of this solution. During the peak of the pandemic, we had up to 3,000 users connected through the solution and able to work from home.

We have used One Identity’s tech support. I would rate it as excellent. They answer all the questions asked of them quickly and efficiently.

We did not previously use a different solution.

The virtual appliance is deployed from the delivered image without any problems. The setup takes about 15 to 20 minutes, including initial setup and configuration. It also is available to any admin user with Unix competencies.

We use the “transparent mode” function to connect administrative users via SSH to the Unix servers. We did not encounter any problems when setting up this feature, as everything was easy. The solution is well-documented and quite understandable when setting up.

It took about one or two working days to administer the solution, read the documentation and settings, and test various configuration options. It was not very difficult. For our users, there were no special nuances since the connection is transparent. They do not understand nor see that they are connecting through the One Identity Safeguard space.

Our implementation strategy was to use this solution to control remote sessions of privileged users, first with our IT support staff. Now, we use the product for this purpose. In general, the strategy was a success.

There has been a lack of losses, since controlling the actions of privileged users is primarily to minimize risks and create an absence of losses.

Licensing and pricing are quite straightforward. The number of recording channel licenses depends on the needs of the customer. I would suggest estimating the number of concurrent sessions per unit of time and proceed from there when purchasing a license.

We evaluated Safeguard and another product. We ultimately chose Safeguard.

Safeguard is an external (in relation to controlled systems) solution which allows you to record sessions. Its competitor was an agent solution that was put on target servers. With the competitor's solution, there was a risk of disconnecting of a privileged user's recording.

Clearly assess your needs and formulate the necessary requirements, then proceed from there with the selection of an appropriate solution. In our case, One Identity Safeguard became this solution. However, this solution is not a panacea for all ills. It is possibly you’ll find that a different solution is more suitable.

I would rate the solution as a nine (out of 10). In order to rate it as a 10, it should have what I would like to see in its coming new releases.

Foreign Language: (Russian)

Как и для чего вы используете этот продукт?

Мы используем это решение для контроля доступа привилегированных пользователей, таких как администраторы приложений, к внутренней сети. Это решение позволяет нам записывать и регистрировать пользовательские сессии.

Мы используем виртуальные устройства на платформе VMware. Виртуализация таких сервисов позволяет нам гибко масштабировать конфигурацию нашего оборудования и предоставляет значительно больше возможностей для построения стабильной структуры.

Как это помогло моей организации?

Это решение позволило нам обеспечить удаленный доступ к внутренней инфраструктуре компании в контексте пандемии COVID-19. Это сделало этот доступ более прозрачным и контролируемым для отделов информационной безопасности.

Мы легко интегрировали этот продукт с нашей системой SIEM для сбора событий. Благодаря этой интеграции мы смогли создавать подходящие регулярные отчеты о привилегированных пользовательских соединениях. Поэтому наши подразделения информационной безопасности могут лучше видеть, кто подключается к удаленной инфраструктуре.

Какие функции вы нашли наиболее ценными?

Наиболее ценной функцией является регистрация сеансов с их визуализацией, то есть запись видео. Эта функциональность позволяет нам восстанавливать действия пользователя в случае каких-либо инцидентов.

Решение прозрачно интегрируется в инфраструктуру, и пользователи этого не замечают. Я бы дал этой функции самый высокий рейтинг.

Хотя функция «прозрачного режима» никак не повлияла на мониторинг, она привела к увеличению удобства подключения пользователей.

Это решение визуализирует сеансы RDP и регистрирует сеансы SSH.

Что нуждается в улучшении?

Я хотел бы видеть поддержку RDP через HTTPS, чтобы этот продукт можно было использовать вместе с терминалом Microsoft.

Я хотел бы визуализировать сессии SSH.

Я хотел бы использовать встроенные механизмы балансировки трафика со встроенным механизмом балансировки нагрузки при использовании нескольких экземпляров.

Как долго я использую этот продукт/решение?

Около четырех лет.

Что я думаю о стабильности этого продукта/решения?

За четыре года использования мы не встретили ни одного сбоя или сбоя системы. Продукт стабилен.

Что я думаю о масштабируемости решения?

Увеличивая количество пользователей, мы можем довольно легко добавить к виртуальным устройствам процессоры и память или диски для хранения записей, что труднее сделать на аппаратном (физическом) устройстве.

У нас есть два администратора, участвующих в развертывании, настройке и обслуживании этого решения. В разгар пандемии у нас было до 3000 пользователей, подключенных через решение и способных работать из дома.

Как бы вы оценили техническую поддержку этого продукта/решения?

Мы использовали техническую поддержку One Identity. Я бы оценил это как превосходное. Они отвечают на все заданные вопросы быстро и качественно.

Какое решение я использовал ранее и почему я переключился?

Ранее мы не использовали другое решение.

Как прошла начальная настройка?

Виртуальное устройство развертывается из доставленного образа без каких-либо проблем. Настройка занимает от 15 до 20 минут, включая первоначальную установку и настройку. Он также доступен для любого администратора с компетенцией Unix.

Мы используем функцию «прозрачного режима» для подключения административных пользователей через SSH к серверам Unix. При настройке этой функции проблем не возникало, так как все было просто. Решение хорошо документировано и вполне понятно при настройке.

Потребовалось около одного или двух рабочих дней для администрирования решения, ознакомления с документацией и настройками, а также для тестирования различных вариантов конфигурации. Это было не очень сложно. Для наших пользователей особых нюансов не было, так как подключение прозрачно. Они не понимают и не видят, что они соединяются через пространство One Identity Safeguard.

Наша стратегия внедрения заключалась в том, чтобы использовать это решение для управления удаленными сеансами привилегированных пользователей, в первую очередь с нашей службой поддержки Информационных Технологий. Теперь мы используем продукт для этой цели. В целом стратегия имела успех.

Какой была была ваша прибыль на инвестиции в One Identity Safeguard?

Мы не испытали никаких потерь, поскольку контроль действий привилегированных пользователей в первую очередь сводит к минимуму риска и создает отсутствие потерь.

Какой у меня опыт работы с ценами, стоимостью установки и лицензированием?

Лицензирование и ценообразование довольно просты. Количество каналов регистрации лицензий зависит от потребностей заказчика. Я бы посоветовал оценить количество одновременных сеансов за единицу времени и перейти оттуда к покупке лицензии.

Прежде чем выбрать этот продукт, вы оценивали другие варианты?

Мы оценили Safeguard и другой продукт. В конечном итоге мы выбрали Safeguard.

Safeguard - это внешнее (по отношению к управляемым системам) решение, которое позволяет вам записывать сессии. Его конкурентом было агентское решение, которое было размещено на целевых серверах. С решением конкурента был риск отключения записи привилегированного пользователя.

Какой еще у меня совет?

Четко оцените свои потребности и сформулируйте необходимые требования, а затем приступайте к выбору подходящего решения. В нашем случае One Identity Safeguard стал таким решением. Однако это решение не является панацеей от всех болезней. Возможно, вы обнаружите, что другое решение более подходит.

Я бы оценил решение как девять (из 10). Чтобы оценить его как 10, у него должно быть то, что я хотел бы видеть в его будущих новых выпусках.

We use the on-demand version. We use the solution for monitoring and connection to the customer's server for Windows and Linux.

It's easier to connect to the server and it makes it more secure. We've seen about a 40% improvement in that regard.

The monitoring system is very good.

It has a very nice user interface.

The product is very fast to implement.

We use the solution's transparent mode for privileged sessions.

There is a lack of documentation and many problems with the plugins.

I did run into problems with transparent mode for privileged sessions. We didn't connect correctly to the server. It was an issue we had with the customer's server, not the product itself.

The security of the connection could be improved. 

I've been using the solution for one year. 

It's not completely stable. Sometimes the newest version does not support an older version.

The solution is not so scalable. 

Mabe 20 or so users are leveraging it in our organization. They are admins. 

We use regular support. The response times are too long. Sometimes it could take days. 

Positive

I previously used CyberArk. I changed companies, and now I work with this product. I find Safeguard to be easier to implement, however, it does lack documentation.

It is fast to implement. 

While the process is not technically complex, there was a lack of documentation and we had to figure out how to do it ourselves. The deployment took three weeks. We had two people working on the process.

We have yet to witness an ROI.

The solution is offered at a good price. We pay a monthly fee. I'm not sure of the exact cost we pay.

I'm a product partner. 

We are using the latest version of the solution. 

I have yet to use the cloud assistant feature, so I can't say much about that aspect of the solution. We also do not use the solution's secure remote access feature for privileged users. We don't have it integrated with DevOps or RPA.

While basic knowledge is important, there isn't much training required to start using the solution. 

I'd rate the solution six out of ten.

One Identity Safeguard is used by administrators to access their devices. They will log in using identity management in order to secure the administrator's login.

One Identity Safeguard can improve by having more integration with multiple devices.

I have been using One Identity Safeguard for approximately one year.

I have found One Identity Safeguard to be stable.

The scalability of One Identity Safeguard is good, we can add multiple devices.

We have approximately 40 administrates using this solution in my organization.

We plan to increase usage in the future.

I have not contacted support.

The initial installation was simple.

The full deployment took approximately a couple of months. Not because of the One Identity Safeguard, but because of us, we were busy doing other projects in parallel.

We used a third-party vendor for the implementation and we had a good experience with them.

My advice to others is One Identity Safeguard is a must to have because it's part of the cybersecurity framework, such as Nest ISO. We should have an identity management solution to manage the whole identity, such as privileged users.

I rate One Identity Safeguard an eight out of ten.
