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

"Its features like detailed audit and reporting, automated workflows, granulated privileged access controls, automated password rotation, and centralized and secure storage have helped us in developing a secure environment for customers, along with audit and compliance coverage."
"It enables us to secure accounts and make sure they are compliant."
"The key aspects of privileged access management are being able rotate passwords, make sure someone is accountable, and tie it back to a user (when the system is being used)."
"The technical support for this solution is very good. If I was to rate it on a scale of one to five, I would give it a five."
"CyberArk's architecture is peculiar; it is the most secure on the market because they have a hardened computer out of the domain that stores passwords with multiple cryptography."
"The ability of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager to safeguard the financial services infrastructure by protecting credentials is extremely important, as every activity in a financial organization needs to be recorded for accountability in auditing."
"On the customer accounts side, our account managers are responsive. If you ask them, they will get you whomever you need."
"The ability to monitor privileged accounts throughout the enterprises."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement, particularly with Vendor PAM."
"The architecture needs to be improved."
"Integration with the ticketing system should allow any number of fields to be used for validation before allowing a user to be evaluated and able to access a server."
"The web access piece needs improvement."
"The solution could improve by adding more connectors."
"There is a learning curve when it comes to planning out the deployment strategy, but once it is defined, it runs itself."
"The solution could improve by adding more connectors."
"With regards to potential improvements for the CyberArk product, I find the product quite expensive and I would like to see the cost reduced."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm aware that the organization had purchased licensing for almost all of CyberArk's solutions including licensing for PTA, EPM, and the Application Identity Manager. But when it comes to PSM, this is one of the components where there's an additional charge for any extra PSMs that you want to deploy. I believe that there's some rider where the vendor has a bit of leeway to, at times, charge a premium on whatever additional services you may require above the board."
"Its price is high. I have also worked with Delinea. CyberArk is comparatively expensive compared to other PAM solutions, such as Delinea, especially during renewal."
"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."
"It's an affordable platform."
"Before we bought it, they were licensing each function individually, which got complicated and very expensive. When we decided to buy it, it was much more straightforward and still quite expensive, but it brings a lot of value and risk reduction to the organization."
"It can be an expensive product."
"In comparison to other products on the market, CyberArk is a more costly product."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
