CyberArk Identity is highly stable, reliable, with a 99.9% SLA, and minor suggestions include expanding zones and availability dashboards.

With respect to stability, I find that stability is very good.
 

Room For Improvement

Auth0 needs better documentation, customization, pricing clarity, multi-tenancy, advanced authorization, IoT integration, and robust MFA capabilities.
CyberArk Identity needs improvements in management, scalability, usability, cloud capabilities, and cost-effectiveness, alongside better support and integration features.
By default, the user profile does not contain the name, first name, or address, which I would expect.
Integration or deployment is extremely difficult for CyberArk Identity.
It does not have global market penetration, and sometimes, there are support issues.
To enhance the product, they can consider improving the user interface of the software.
 

Setup Cost

Auth0's pricing is seen as generally cost-effective but can be confusing and costly, especially with extra features.
CyberArk Identity's pricing is competitive but costly, valued by larger enterprises for its superior services and security features.
The cost of the solution itself was cost-effective enough that I didn't even need to compare it with EntraID.
I compared it with other products, and it does not require a heavy investment.
The pricing is acceptable.
Regarding pricing, it can be quite a lot for small companies.
 

Valuable Features

Auth0 provides secure, scalable JWT-based authentication with easy integration, enterprise appeal, customization, and strong developer support.
CyberArk Identity enhances security with features like Active Directory integration, multi-factor authentication, password rotation, and compliance support.
The most important feature for me was the ease of use, as it needed to be easy to integrate into my platform.
It impacts zero trust security strategies. It prevents lateral movements in the organization.
It protects our platform, application, network, and infrastructure resources on any device.
Being able to integrate CyberArk Identity with Microsoft Defender is valuable.

Julio Montero - PeerSpot reviewer
Access management system provides strong security and effortless user authentication
The solution can be deployed on cloud or on-premises. CyberArk is more on the cloud than on local hardware. The deployment is initially quite difficult. That said, when you are doing the implementation of CyberArk, there are so many tutorials that make the learning process very easy. The only complaint could be the language barrier. It's difficult if you don't have a very good level of English. Otherwise, it is very easy. You can have it set up within three months without much difficulty. It's hard to get started, however, once you get going, it gets easier. A full deployment takes half a year or less. There is some maintenance necessary. A company is constantly hiring and letting go of employees. The access is always changing, so access must always be adjusted. Or, if we need another law of filter, we would need to add those, or even take them away. That's another aspect of maintenance.
