Secures critical infrastructures with essential user session audit records
A potential area for improvement is enhancing support for cluster environments and distributed Vaults. Clients in multiple countries that need central access have different challenges that require better solutions from CyberArk. For financial services, CyberArk can improve incident response by ensuring fast support for critical priority tickets to meet compliance requirements. Providing more documentation on CyberArk is recommended for new team members to enhance their troubleshooting capabilities. I understand it's up to the client, but 99% fail to change the demo key, so it's crucial for CyberArk to emphasize changing the key and documenting it as part of the installation process.

With a great support team and stability, the tool also offers scalability to its users
The initial setup was easy. One just needs to write the initial configuration. Then, in senhasegura's cloud applications, you can use it. I just deploy it in PoC environments or demo environments and not for production. Hence, it takes much less time than I imagine when comparing its deployment in production. I think it can be deployed in two or three days. My company has partnered with senhasegura. We just downloaded the main machine for virtual use. Then, we get the key to install it. Before, you just need to try the general configuration. Then, you will have the web applications ready. Then, you can just discover the accounts or any devices that you want to manage the accounts and manage the credentials.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All other top solutions in the Gartner Magic Quadrant were evaluated and CyberArk came up as the best and most mature choice."
"Our privileged accounts are now stored in a more secure location and lateral movement within the network have been lessened."
"It is best suited for mid to large-size enterprises; it is priced well, it is the market leader, and I think that it's the best solution."
"Provides improved security around having your credentials locked down and rotated regularly."
"I love how easily we could operate within Password Vault and get things done. It was almost effortless."
"The product has performed very well, and we will continue to invest in this space because the CyberArk tools are working well for us."
"The password protection itself is the most important feature. It's something we didn't have before."
"The solution helps our developers access internal systems. It also helps us in Privilege Access Management."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The performance of this product needs to be improved. When the number of privileged accounts increases, i.e., exceeds 2000, then the performance of the system reduces."
"Performance of PIM could be better and intended for usability as well as security."
"The solution is too complicated to use and should be simplified. It took me a long time to understand how to use it. There is a lot that the solution can improve for the future."
"The support services could act faster when people reach out to resolve issues."
"The documentation is rather basic and it is missing many use cases."
"The DNA scan should be able to scan Unix machines for privileged accounts."
"New functionalities or discovered bugs take a little longer to patch. We would greatly appreciate quicker development of security patches and bug corrections."
"Authentication to the PVWA utilises integration to IIS. Therefore, it is not as strong as desired."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is high compared to other products."
"This solution is considered to be more expensive than others out there on the market today."
"Overall, its pricing is really good. The main difference from all the other vendors is that they have one package that covers all the functionality and modules of the basic PAM, except the add-on modules like adware and server protection. It also doesn't include the licenses for domain controller protection or maybe an API call-related feature. For the basic privileged access management, the bundle pricing is really good, but when it comes to an agent-based solution for advanced cyber protection or application identity managers, it is expensive. Services are also very expensive if you hire the services team from CyberArk, but these guys are really good. For a couple of large banking projects, we had an experience with them. The banks wanted to have things quickly and efficiently, so we had to hire them. If we take four weeks, these guys can do everything on a weekend. They charge quite a big sum of money, but they know the system well."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"The license CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is on an annual basis."
"Pricing and licensing depend on the environment."
"This product is very expensive."
"Although CyberArk Privileged Access Management is expensive, its protection capabilities outweigh the cost."
