Allows Linux and Unix administrators to login with single password
The solution helps with auditing, and monitoring, and integrates with Splunk for log analysis. User activity logs are captured in CyberArk Identity and sent to external tools like Splunk for analysis and monitoring. It is integrated with tools like Splunk and Dynatrace for the analysis of risk behavior and user activity. The pushing teams receive automated reports to assess factors such as login times and server activity in the last 60 days. The licensing for IAM and PAM tools is based on headcount and usage. Users who are not actively utilizing the resources may have their access revoked. This approach helps manage budgeting and reduces the risk impact on the organization by implementing protocols to mitigate threats.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user identification is simplified, and managing user privileges, whether adding or revoking them, is also quite straightforward when utilizing CyberArk SaaS."
"The tool is a very strong and valuable enterprise solution, particularly in ensuring the continuity of service."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"The user self-service program and the Office 365 provisioning service feature are the most valuable. It is a very easy and feature-rich solution that gives priority to the users and security."
"The integration capabilities, ability to integrate CyberArk into the overall IBB strategy of our current clients."
"It has machine learning and can help clients to learn the environment and understand what is happening."
"I found the solution to be stable."
"CyberArk Identity is a mature product."
"It is an SAP product, so it integrates very well with other SAP products."
 

Cons

"CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The solution's difficulty in gaining skill sets should be improved because it's a vertical product."
"In terms of a governance platform, it's worth noting that CyberArk doesn't offer a particularly strong one."
"The product needs to leverage the cloud more, especially in the financial sector, where cloud adoption might be limited. Proper reporting within the cloud is essential. The tool should be more user-friendly to expedite access for users. The current agent-based system poses challenges if a user loses access to the server, making tasks difficult to perform. It should also improve technical support."
"The user interface could be improved."
"There is room for improvement in documentation. The documentation could be more specific about the changes needed to achieve specific goals."
"They could improve their UI and make everything more user-friendly."
"We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."
"It would be better if we could also manage other systems with it. Currently, you have to purchase plugins for it to work with other non-SAP systems. It would be good if there is an easy way to integrate SAP Access Control with other non-SAP systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of CyberArk Identity is competitive."
"It's not that affordable compared to Delinea or other products. They're less expensive and allow more customization. For the cost, it is expensive."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a seven out of ten. The product’s pricing is expensive and is on a yearly basis. You will need to pay around 10,000 GBP for 500 users."
"I think it is a fairly priced tool. I rate the tool between six and seven on a scale of one to ten where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"We find that the pricing and licensing of this solution is adequate, as compared to the other competitors in the market."
"In terms of pricing, BeyondTrust and CyberArk tend to be more expensive, with CyberArk receiving an eight out of ten, in this regard."
"CyberArk Identity is an expensive solution."
"The solution is cheap and I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
