"The logs and reporting features are impressive."
"CyberArk has a lot of modules."
"It's a highly flexible solution that can adapt to each customer's needs."
"It's highly secure and very flexible. It gives us all types of storage options and it gives us a high level of security."
"The interface is very simple to use."
"CyberArk is a good and adaptive solution. It is easy to adopt and install. It is easy for every use case."
"The ability to monitor privileged accounts throughout the enterprises."
"The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is that it's an open source solution. Second, it's cloud agnostic, so it's very easy to maintain and control, which is why we prefer HashiCorp."
"We use the solution for secret management."
"The feature I find most beneficial in HashiCorp Vault is the secret engine. It integrates smoothly with many applications, making it easy to set up and implement quickly. This allows you to test it easily and see good results rapidly. When you integrate an internal API or application, it quickly manages that application's secrets."
"The tool's dynamic rotation of the password credentials is good."
"It is user-friendly and easy to implement from any application point."
"The interface is very simple to navigate."
"It's stable. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten."
"For me, the most valuable features include that it's easy to manage and maintain the password API for retrieving passwords and other things."
"The stability depends on the infrastructure it is installed on, which is important because CyberArk does not have the hardware appliance."
"In the next release, they could simplify the setup and I would like some tasks added like file sharing. When a client connects to CyberArk and wants to put a file on the server, they cannot."
"The session monitoring and recording feature is also a good feature feature, but we're currently experiencing an issue with session monitoring not working correctly. We're working with CyberArk to resolve it. We aren't able to view active sessions or historical recordings of sessions."
"I would prefer that this is a fully-managed service, rather than have to manage the software ourselves and keep it up to date."
"We require IAM (identify and access management) capability at the administrator level because we need more identification."
"CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault's deployment is complex for resources with little experience. Tech support needs to be improved as well based on quality and knowledge."
"The solution is too complicated to use and should be simplified. It took me a long time to understand how to use it. There is a lot that the solution can improve for the future."
"CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault must incorporate connectors for password and session managers in the marketplace."
"The solution's initial setup process is complicated."
"I don't think there are any major improvements required—so far, so good. However, I think that having more training materials, such as videos, and documentation available would be helpful. I would prefer to have more videos available either on the official site or on YouTube."
"There could be a plugin for the database to change the secret automatically. It would be an efficient feature for password security."
"In my opinion, HashiCorp Vault could improve its user interface. Right now, they don't offer much in terms of a graphical interface, which means you usually have to manage things manually through API calls. I think CyberArk has a better approach because it provides a UI that integrates features across all its components, making it easier, especially for new users or those from organizations with strict licensing policies."
"We could use more documentation, primarily to do with integrations."
"The documentation is very general; it should have more examples and more use cases."
"A drawback for some clients who have to be PCI compliant is that they still need to use and subscribe to an HSM (Hardware Security Module) solution."
"I would rate the stability a six out of ten. There are some bugs and glitches. We are in touch with the vendor to resolve them."
