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

"Helped us meet our standards and requirements to help us comply with industry standards and banking regulations."
"If you want more security, get CyberArk."
"Because we now have the ability to grant access to management utilities like DNS Manager, Sequel Studio, and MMC, in a secure fashion, without system admins being required to continually reenter various passwords that are stored who knows where, it has really made the system admin's job much easier. It has made the PSM's job much easier. It has made the auditor's job and the security team's job and the access manager's job significantly easier, because we're able to move much more quickly toward a role-based access management system, and that is really streamlining the whole onboarding/offboarding management process."
"Comparing it to other providers, Cyberark provides a more user-friendly environment with many more features and benefits."
"We use the solution for password vaulting, password rotation, session management, and secret management."
"CyberArk is one of the best PAM solutions and one of the most expensive, but it works better than the others, so the pricing is fair."
"CyberArk has the most extensive hardening and encryption techniques I have seen in a product, with equal intentions."
"The solution is stable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The user interface needs to be improved."
"Password Vault is much pricier than other solutions. A vendor team might struggle to explain why that price is justified. There are good alternatives that cost less."
"The current user interface is a little dated. However, I hear there are changes coming in the next version."
"Password Vault is much pricier than other solutions. A vendor team might struggle to explain why that price is justified."
"Their post-sale support area requires a big improvement."
"Having a cloud version would be very helpful. You have to invest a lot of money for the infrastructure hardware so the cloud version would help."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager can be improved because I have experienced one issue where a user connected through RDP to a Linux server and the PAM could not fetch any commands or key store logging from the Linux server, which works fine on Windows servers."
"CyberArk has two disadvantages; the first is that it's insanely expensive and the other is it's very complex."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you are looking at implementing this solution, buy the training and go to it."
"I hope to learn how the pricing works so that I can understand it better, but I am certain it is not inexpensive."
"Payments have to be made on a yearly basis toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"The SaaS version of CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault is very expensive, but the on-premises version is relative, e.g. depending on the size of the environment, it can be a bit pricey, but it's relatively okay compared to the others."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is perceived to be somewhat overpriced compared to similar market products. It is a little bit overvalued. It could come down a little bit for my liking. However, the industry-leading reputation and the quality of service justify the high price point to some extent."
"Pricing is quite high and it could be improved."
"With reducing the privileged account access, there has been a huge improvement. They are now bringing more accounts on a little at a time."
"Our risk is definitely significantly lower. Also, our resources are low."
