Offers integrated solutions and expands its capabilities through strategic acquisitions
Setting up CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager was challenging for me due to the involvement of multiple components. The process required a good understanding of each component and its configuration. It is not a straightforward setup, and familiarity with the system is crucial to ensure everything is correctly configured. I would rate the easiness of the initial setup as a six out of ten. The deployment of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager takes about a day. It is not as quick as some Linux, which can be up and running in just a couple of hours. CyberArk's deployment is more complex due to the various components that need to be set up and validated to ensure they work together seamlessly. Once the deployment is complete, you can then proceed with tasks like account onboarding.

Transparent mode for privileged sessions will greatly simplify our client's administrative situation
We're introducing the solution's transparent mode for privileged sessions. This is part of what the client hasn't used before. It will simplify their administrative situation greatly. So far, the rollout of this feature has been a seamless process, but we're still in the midst of rolling it out. The benefits will be on the risk side. Right now, the way accounts are managed, you don't necessarily know who is using an account. There's a shared admin account, and that's not a good thing. And those accounts are shared in wallets by several people. One of the real benefits of safeguarding here is that the client will have an absolute audit of who is using an administrative interface, whether it's server or network.

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 the solution is its performance."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"I like that you can remove the admin rights from the user's computer and have control over the environment. That means you can delete the local admins and grant them proper privileges with the console. So, they will get proper permissions for applications they need, but we don't have to do it. In the domain where we don't have control, the user can only do specified actions, but not all of them."
"Users can scale the solution."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM) 's most valuable feature is its ability to manage user application privileges and protect against ransomware attacks by controlling access to specific files and applications."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is its high performance, it's the best identity security platform. The security is good. It's easy to showcase the feature and capabilities and compare it with other competitors. It competes well with other solutions. Additionally, it is a complete solution."
"It offers great performance."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager are password management, session management, onboarding rules, platform customization, and safety management."
"Safeguard has the ability to record and retrieve in the full-video format."
"The whole product solves the privileged access management challenge for our company. We have a secure tunnel, a secure session manager, and automatic logging of sessions, which is good for forensic purposes. We have a rich level of logs and can trace what happened on which machine and see who did what."
"We don't need to use VPN for remote access."
"One Identity Safeguard is stable and provides great performance."
"The most valuable feature of One Identity Safeguard is the user-friendly interface."
"The system is easy to manage, as it is not a system that you will change everything all of a sudden. It evolves most of the time with customer requests."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"It is easy to manage. There is a very logical, clear user interface. Also, the integration of scripts is thoughtfully implemented. Overall, it's a nice product to manage."
 

Cons

"For an experienced system implementer it will take approximately one day. However, for somebody who is inexperienced it may take up to five days."
"Compared to other tools like Linux, this solution isn't as user-friendly."
"CyberArk has some performance issues. For example, servers could not handle the solution when we first took CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager."
"It cannot be on-prem. It is only cloud-based. Sometimes, that's a restriction in terms of usage."
"The price of the solution should improve."
"It is hard to deal with technical support if you are not certified."
"The turnaround time of the support team is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"CyberArk meets clients' need very spot-on. It covers everything customers ask for. As for improvements, honestly, the feedback's been really positive. I haven't heard any specific areas that need work."
"We sometimes face issues with configuration and things like that, but we manage to solve them."
"We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS."
"We have feature requests and would like to see the turnaround times on those features to be faster."
"I just received a question from a customer in regards to a connection with Oracle OID. I tried to integrate Safeguard with the Oracle YAML as well as something else to manage the groups and users from a different system, like AD or LDAP. This one feature could be better. At this moment, the platform system can only use the integration with LDAP or AD. The software for research and development to create a connector to a YAML platform can be very complicated."
"Some of our users find the functionality a bit complex, and it could be made more user-friendly."
"I would like to see support for RDP over HTTPS so this product can be used in conjunction with the Microsoft terminal."
"We've had issues managing accounts and access to some data saved on the servers. Accounts are granted a new working certificate daily. We have an account to do it on APIs online and sync it with that. If the path changes at some point or someone changes the password, I don't know if it's from the Active Directory or what."
"The automated change of the passwords, which is now integrated, could be improved to be more flexible regarding different systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has a very high price, so it's a one out of ten for me in terms of pricing."
"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."
"I feel that the price of the product is nominal. It must be around 10 to 15 USD per installation. I rate the product price an eight to nine out of ten, where one is high price, and ten is low price."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable for customers."
"The solution requires an annual license to use it. There can be some extra costs in some cases."
"It is an expensive solution."
"I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten since the price can be too high for smaller businesses."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors' products."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"Safeguard is cheaper than CyberArk."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"The license is around $3,000 per month."
"The pricing depends on our perspective, our budget, and, of course, the competitors we are taking into account."
"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
"They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
