A reliable solution with great password and session management
The setup process depends on the environment of the customer. It's not dependent on the solution. For customers with normal use cases and scenarios, it's a straightforward implementation, but for a customer with more than one environment, they may have BeyondTrust in one environment and Safeguard in another one. When they want to consolidate later, there may be complications. It depends on the devices and assets they would like to have under their PAM solution. The standard time for implementation is four weeks. I rate the setup an eight out of ten. There needs to be a dedicated resource for maintenance.

Offers secure identity management, privilege control, access monitoring, and risk reduction through controlled access
Based on my experience as a sales tech person, one area of improvement could be a more unified licensing model. For example, if you look at BeyondTrust, their licensing is more straightforward. They only ask about the number of assets you need to protect, and there's no additional cost for external users or third-party vendors. With WALLIX Bastion, there's a separate fee for external users to access the environment. It would be great if they could unify the licensing so that customers don't have to pay separate fees for different types of users. It would make the pricing more transparent and easier to understand. Even if the total cost stays the same, a unified approach would be much simpler and more convenient for customers. It's about clarity and ease of understanding.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is easy to use."
"The most valuable features are session and password management."
"Privileged Access Suite's best feature is it's straightforward to use."
"The solution's technical support team is helpful."
"Its video recording capabilities have definitely been key for us."
"WALLIX Bastion's most valuable feature is the Access Manager because you can use it and access the data center without any client VPN."
"The support is great. They offer 24/7 support, but the specific level of support depends on your subscription. There's a weekday-only option, and a 24/7 option that covers all days of the week. They also have offices in different regions, including West Africa, so people there can easily get support. There's no need to worry about getting assistance."
"The interface is very simple. It doesn't need any plug-ins, just browsers that are installed at the beginning."
"We use WALLIX Bastion to provide access and to monitor sessions."
"I like that it's Linux-based, and you don't need to have separate implementations, extra database licenses, or enterprise licenses. I think because it's Linux-based, it's more seamless than Windows. I also like the access manager, which I think is a super tool. Everything is browser-based, and you don't need a VPN. So, that's a great thing."
 

Cons

"Privileged Access Suite's interface could be better."
"Product management should be improved."
"There is a new trend of not having any privileged users or accounts."
"The performance of WALLIX Bastion's password manager is very low."
"The product doesn't have behavior analytics. They promised to develop this, but only for the cloud, not for on-premise versions."
"WALLIX Bastion is GUI-driven, but it sometimes needs some management."
"There could be more automation features for the solution."
"For me, the main issue has to do with the system performance itself."
"It would be better if I could manage multiple accounts in one place, like CyberArk. With WALLIX, you can only manage one account, and you are given a separate category. You have to click on each connection to do anything. For example, CyberArk might give three options for one connection if you want to have an interactive user-level experience. But with WALLIX, you have to click three times to get that access. Also, the biggest disadvantage of WALLIX is the reporting. I feel like it's very weak in reporting when compared to the other solutions. As a solution, they're good and stable. But they need to make their reports neater and better. Right now, we're going to the console and then pressing buttons every single time."
"Based on my experience as a sales tech person, one area of improvement could be a more unified licensing model."
"The password management needs improvement. Management of Access Manager should be improved as well."
