Improved security measures with some support response delays
For BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, the best features are the security measures we have, such as not sharing any credentials with employees in the bank sector. For security purposes in BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, when employees are working in the system, we can make a recording of the video, showing the modifications and configurations they made, allowing us to see everything. The recording option is available. BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management positively impacts the organization by providing more security and benefits, such as ensuring that if modifications are made, we can see where mistakes occurred in the recording video. The recording video in BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management allows us to see modifications and mistakes, which is an advantage.

Enhancing security and efficiency through robust secret management
With the merging of Thycotic and Centrify into Delinea, it has combined strengths of both products into a single package. Thycotic was strong in certain areas and Centrify in others, and now Delinea integrates these features. I have experience with solutions like CyberArk, BeyondTrust, and Delinea. CyberArk, Delinea, and BeyondTrust are pushing onto cloud-based solutions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Administrators need a tool that provides visibility and clarity about endpoint management within the organization. This addresses the issue of managing privileged users, which is crucial for any administrator or higher management team to control."
"It scales easily and the product is stable."
"It reduces major vulnerabilities by removing local administrator 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."
"Technical support is good."
"When it comes to the PAM, I don't think that any application can compete with BeyondTrust, except for the financial issue that has been recently affected by the change in the licensing model."
"AI adds value by automating the onboarding of assets and using smart rules to assign privileges."
"The solution is definitely stable, and within the last eight years we have been able to satisfy the most demanding customers in the world, whether they have 10 users, 10,000 users, or even 100,000 users, because it is scalable."
"If somebody is looking for a straightforward PAM that is easy to deploy then I would recommend Centrify."
"The solution provides secure access to environments."
"The stability and performance are excellent."
"The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports."
"The most valuable feature of Delinea Privileged Access Service is we can use the server as a jump host. It is simple to manage the accounts on the system."
"The reporting is excellent."
"Delinea has very good support."
"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."
 

Cons

"The product should improve its price."
"There are some features in CyberArk that are better, cheaper, or easier to implement."
"They are doing good for now, but they should start to consider tight integration with Mac solutions."
"There are been cases that we are handling that have been going on for a year now. Even though they are an industry leader, they haven't been able to solve a small problem."
"Its feature for establishing workflows needs improvement."
"Improvements could focus on adding more AI features to automate processes that are currently manual or challenging for end users."
"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."
"The initial setup was very difficult. Even if you are an expert in EPM, it is still very difficult."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."
"It is difficult to integrate the product with other IT systems."
"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration because we have experienced multiple lockouts due to expired passwords."
"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 have been really happy if Delinea were evolving or innovating like CyberArk. Delinea needs to innovate more to match the changing needs of the market."
"My thoughts about support of Delinea in general are that they are so so."
"With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I'm sure everyone should have the cluster environment, which means more expensive, anyway, cheaper than the other solutions."
"The product’s licensing is different for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool’s licensing is yearly."
"The solution's pricing is high."
"It was very expensive."
"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."
"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"Its pricing and licensing are okay. We were in the perpetual model when it was on-prem, and now, with the SaaS service, we have a subscription model. As a customer, I would always like to see a lower price, but it seems to be priced at the right model currently, and we are trying to get the maximum benefits out of it."
"The pricing is moderate."
"The price is cheap if I compare Delinea Privileged Access Service with other products."
"In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."
"The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
"The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible."
"It is sad that people with a limited budget won't be able to afford it."
"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."
