Great session management, password management, and temporary access capabilities
We use CyberArk to secure the last resort accounts by introducing dual control approval, ticket validation, temporary access, and regular password rotation. It also allows us to introduce location-aware access controls with multiple sites having access to specific location-protected content…

Easy to install but needs to provide better server management and organization
I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server. Working with 100 or 200 server installations is comfortable, but not thousands. The scalability isn't very good because it's complicated. I would like more organization. For instance, they could add a table that matches an account to many servers at once. There could also be better education services. They don't have any certification program, at least in Ukraine, so the training is complicated and divided into different pieces. Cisco, for example, has a great education program that starts from the basics and progresses to advanced features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is for hardening access and making the organization more secure, therefore reducing chances of a breach."
"It helps our customers in their software requirement imports."
"We have accomplished our security goals. We have two-factor authenticated and vaulted our important accounts, so people can't just steal stuff from us."
"The combination of CPM and PSM resolves a lot of use cases."
"We utilize PTA, and we are now integrating that into our risk management program so we can identify the uses of the vault which are outside of the norm, e.g., people accessing after hours. It has reduced the amount of time that we are looking through logs and audit logs."
"Securely protects our TAP/NUID and privileged access accounts within the company."
"The Vault offers great capabilities for structuring and accessing data."
"It provides an accountability to the individuals who are using it, knowing that it is audited and tracked."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
 

Cons

"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager could improve the integration with other solutions and ease of use. Additionally, there should be a feature to have remote connections without a VPN."
"I think having a distributed architecture would certainly help this solution."
"One of the main things that could be improved would be filtering accounts on the main page and increasing the functionality of the filters. There are some filters on the side which are very specific, but I feel there could be more."
"​It's hard to find competent resellers/support."
"The scalability, sometimes, is lacking. It works really well for more static environments... But for an environment where you're constantly spinning up new infrastructure or new endpoints, sometimes it has a hard time keeping up."
"The interface on version 9 looks old."
"PAM could be more user-friendly and CyberArk could update the documentation to include more real-world examples. You have to learn it yourself through trial and error. In particular, the online documentation should have more information about troubleshooting."
"We would like to expand the usage of the auto discovery accounts feed, then on our end, tie in the REST API for automation."
"The stability is not very good."
"The configuration is difficult."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"With reducing the privileged account access, there has been a huge improvement. They are now bringing more accounts on a little at a time."
"They have two types of licensing: purchase and subscription. You have to pay for each admin user, such as Microsoft admin, mail admin, database admin, etc."
"The price of this solution is quite reasonable."
"This solution is considered to be more expensive than others out there on the market today."
"It is in line with its competitors, but all such solutions cost too much money."
"Pricing and licensing depend on the environment."
"Network and security licenses are currently being managed by other outsource vendors, so they are facing some type of problems in the digital aspect."
"The price of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is expensive. There are no other fees other than the standard licensing fees."
"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."
