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

"DVR like video recording and text-based recording for easier audits."
"Automatic password management, which will automatically change passwords based on compliance requirements."
"Session monitoring is excellent. It may be the solution's most valuable aspect."
"It does what it promised, it secures our platforms, has the scalability, and it is just a solid product."
"It provides an accountability to the individuals who are using it, knowing that it is audited and tracked."
"CyberArk has allowed us to get the credentials and passwords out of hard-coded property files."
"Overall, it has been a great product and helped out a lot with being able to manage privileged accounts."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is session recording."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"I would say there are scalability issues. After the solution is deployed, resizing it is difficult."
"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.""
"What could be improved in CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is the licensing model. It should be more flexible in terms of the users. Currently, it's based on the number of users, but many users only log in once in four months or once in five months. It would be great if the licensing model could be modified based on user needs. We even have users who have not logged in even once."
"Enhanced PSM support for Java based applications."
"We'd like to see the creation of some kind of memo field for each device account, which could be used, in our network at least, to leave a note about the device for either the security or network engineering team members."
"Within CyberArk, I would like to see more support for personal accounts."
"They are taking two to three days for resolution are too slow. Customers, including myself, do not want to wait this long for solutions."
"The installation is not straightforward. It's complex."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's an affordable platform."
"Pricing is quite high and it could be improved."
"Pricing and licensing depend on the environment."
"The pricing is slightly higher compared to other solutions, but it is reasonable because there are better security features."
"Quite expensive"
"Since CyberArk is at the top of the Gartner list, the cost is indeed on the higher side, but customers must discern which entities are essential to purchase. They should weigh the cost against the quality received."
"The price of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager could be less expensive."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a six out of ten."
