Md Abdul Hakim - PeerSpot reviewer
System Engineer at Corporate Projukti Limited
Offers solid performance and user adaptability but needs better pricing options and local support
BeyondTrust is a strong, compliance-driven solution with excellent market recognition (Gartner, Peers, etc.), making it appealing for Bangladeshi enterprises. However, some key improvements could accelerate adoption: Areas for Improvement: Pricing & Local Affordability While the product’s capabilities justify its value, cost remains a barrier for many Bangladeshi organizations. Competitive pricing or regional discounts would make it more accessible. Local Support & Partnerships Currently, lack of local partners or trainers creates delays in support, implementation, and pricing negotiations. Establishing a Bangladesh-based support team or authorized resellers would improve responsiveness and trust. Enhanced Onboarding & Training Offering localized training programs (in Bengali/English) and documentation would help IT teams deploy and manage the solution more efficiently. Recommendations for Next Release: Introduce tiered pricing for emerging markets like Bangladesh. Develop a partner network in Bangladesh for faster service and sales. Add simplified dashboards for easier monitoring by non-technical staff. Final Note: BeyondTrust is already a top-tier PAM solution, but addressing these gaps would solidify its leadership in Bangladesh’s growing cybersecurity market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I liked about this solution is that it can also integrate for tracking malicious use or sending analytics to a host that can process them. I don't know if CyberArk, Centrify, or Thycotic can do that. The analytics was something the client really wanted, and they already had BeyondTrust. It is very scalable. The agent on the workstation is very thin, and the processing power required on a server is nothing out of the ordinary. It is also very stable and easy to deploy."
"The features related to application elevate is amazing. It helped the company to remove almost all admin local users."
"It is straightforward, it is a good technology, and it is made to do one single thing."
"Logs that get collected on the Privilege Management console from the agents are very good. They help us to identify the aspects from which we have to whitelist an application."
"AI adds value by automating the onboarding of assets and using smart rules to assign privileges."
"I can take a customer that is non-compliant with 27001, an organization that failed their registrar audit, and get them to compliance with this product fairly quickly; in half a year."
"The solution can do so much; it's quite flexible, a great tool, and it's nice to have administration tools without having to remember the password because you just have to click on whatever you need to do and you get temporary access."
"It reduces major vulnerabilities by removing local administrator privileges."
"There are benefits in the security realm. We use Delinea at an enterprise level. I imagine there are productivity gains, but moreover, it's the security. We don’t enable staff to see the passwords of boxes but it's all being tracked and logged now."
"The privileged account management feature is what I like most."
"I recommend it to other organizations."
"The solution is flexible."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"The stability and performance are excellent."
"This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."
"Delinea has very good support, rating them an eight or nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"There are some features in CyberArk that are better, cheaper, or easier to implement."
"The BeyondInsight appliance environment is not as flexible as it should be in some designs."
"These are related to the Flash / Java Web UI, which we know is very vulnerable."
"We use a program to automate all of this, but it's not a default feature of BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management."
"What's bothering me, which is true of all of them, is that sometimes, the error codes that come up don't necessarily get reflected in the searches within their support sites or they're out of date. I would rather search by an error code than type in the text and search for it by text because the error code means that it is programmatic, and it is known. It might not be desired, but it at least is not unexpected. If you don't have an error code, you just get an anomalous error, and if it is lengthy, it can be difficult to search and find the specific instance you're looking for. This is something I would like all of them to improve. BeyondTrust, CyberArk, Centrify, and Thycotic could do some improvements in staying up to date and actually allowing you to search based on the product version. They are assuming that everybody is on their way to release. They put out a new release, but it is not reflected on the support site, which makes no sense to me, especially when they revamp all the error codes. They all have been guilty of this in some way."
"They are doing good for now, but they should start to consider tight integration with Mac solutions."
"One issue, especially when you deploy HA actively and passively, is the synchronization."
"The deployment process should be clarified or made simpler."
"The pricing and presence could be improved."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"The integration with sync could be improved."
"I would have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk."
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."
"The initial setup is a bit complex, but once the infrastructure is there and all the components have been installed, it's easy and straightforward to maintain."
"I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s licensing is different for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool’s licensing is yearly."
"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"I'm sure everyone should have the cluster environment, which means more expensive, anyway, cheaper than the other solutions."
"PowerBroker for a Mac client is three times the price of the Windows version."
"What BeyondTrust was providing was user-based licensing which was a great benefit from the client point of view. Recently, I don't know why, the licensing model has been changed, and that is the reason that they have lost a bit of their edge when it comes to the PAM, against our competition. The asset-based licensing, from the user's point of view, is not beneficial. The licensing should be based on the users. The greater the number of users, the greater will be the load and the greater the scalability problems. I presume that is why the licensing model has changed."
"The solution's pricing is high."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"Price-wise, it is very competitive. In our area, government entities and banks don't go for the monthly payment. It is a headache even for us in terms of finance and procurement to go for monthly payments. Quarterly might be more logical and reasonable, but the minimum that we go for is one year, and sometimes, we even try to compile and give one offering for three years."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"The price of Delinea Privileged Access Service is average compared to its competitors."
"The solution is priced too high, so I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"The pricing is moderate."
