We have visibility and control through real-time user behavior analytics
It took us some time to realize its benefits because there was a learning curve for us. It took us about a year to get our heads around this product and start effectively using it. It is a journey. It takes at least five years for any company to make this product very useful and reach maturity. It is not only the product's fault. The company needs to have a vision, and the company culture needs to go with it. Senior leadership needs to support the vision. You need to have lots of ingredients for success. If everything is in place, you will see success after one year. In the first year, it is a struggle for everybody. My company was bought by a bigger company, and they were very new to privileged access management. Everybody was struggling. The advice I would give is to have a good vision for privileged access management. You need dedicated teams, senior management support, and proper company policies and standards before implementing the solution. Start building knowledge slowly and avoid jumping into the deep end without preparation. I would rate CyberArk Privileged Access Manager a nine out of ten.

Provides cost saving and offers device visibility
I think it's a stable solution and don't foresee any problems in the future. It's a leading security platform and is widely used in Italy. This gives them full visibility of all devices, which is often difficult to achieve. IT managers usually lack visibility into all products and security solutions. However, this platform lets customers gain visibility of their entire device environment. I rate its stability an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Cons

"Response time is not ideal, and reaching someone knowledgeable can take time."
"The tool needs to improve its usage and interface. They need to have a modern and useful interface. I want the product to improve its integration capabilities as well since some of the integration features do not work always."
"I would prefer that this is a fully-managed service, rather than have to manage the software ourselves and keep it up to date."
"I'm not a fan of technical support with CyberArk. It's like jumping through red tape and hoops. Quite frankly, it's almost like when you call CyberArk you get the Help Desk or the level-one. I'm a level-one. I got the CCD, I know how to do the initial troubleshooting. When I call CyberArk it's because I can't figure the problem out. So I need a level-two, three, four. I don't need you to tell me, "Hey, open a ticket and then give me logs.""
"CyberArk has to continue to evolve with that threat landscape to make sure that they're still protecting those credentials that are owned by those that have privileged accounts in the firms."
"The Vault's disaster recovery features need improvement."
"Improved user-friendliness, granularity, and functionality would enhance the product further."
"The price is high compared to Azure Key Vault. It's the most expensive solution."
"Nozomi Networks currently offers add-ons, such as ARP agents, that can be installed on machines to expand the information we receive from sensors. However, these are part of a licensing structure, which can be costly."
"Proof of concept could be improved. It could be more tangible to the customer and the end users to have a video presentation or something like that."
"The solution should include an integration library."
"I would like more customizable options for configurations."
"It should support more programmable logic controllers (PLCs)."
"Nozomi Networks should improve its pricing."
"I believe there is room for improvement regarding on-premises AI."
"Creating custom queries is time-consuming."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Payments have to be made on a yearly basis toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"CyberArk has been Gartner's number-one pick for the past ten years, so you can infer that their pricing is higher than everyone else. When you are the best, you will charge appropriately for it."
"If you want a Ferrari, it will cost you. The solution is really nice, so it costs the client, but in the long run, it is very good. If you buy a solution that costs a lot to maintain because it is not stable, and you are frequently asking for consultant support, it costs more."
"I would rate the cost of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager seven out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"If you are looking at implementing this solution, buy the training and go to it."
"CyberArk DNA is free if you purchase the CyberArk solution. There is no additional charge for CyberArk DNA, which is great."
"I do not have any opinions to add about the pricing of the product."
"Pricing is quite high and it could be improved."
"The solution's pricing is good and cheaper than that of Claroty."
"I have not seen any competition in terms of pricing, and it is quite reasonable."
