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

"The threat analytics is an important feature."
"Auditing and control are the most valuable, as you can control password management almost to the max, giving you, your users and your auditors great flexibility without compromising security."
"It helps our customers in their software requirement imports."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager's abilities to safeguard the infrastructure are important, as protecting credentials provides us with security and visibility."
"It has a centralized page where you can manage everything, making work easier because you don't have to remember different module URLs or browser applications, and it is very easy to get all the secure identities of other environments into a single page, which is very important for us as it helps a lot in terms of operations, e.g., reduces management time."
"We are maintaining compliance in PCI, SOX and HIPPA, which is a big thing. Auditors really like it, and it has made us stay compliant."
"We primarily use this product for privileged identity management, restricting privileged IDs, and governance."
"CyberArk is a good and adaptive solution. It is easy to adopt and install. It is easy for every use case."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"Cost efficiency is the number one thing that can be improved in my mind."
"We should be able to join small components."
"The initial setup of CyberArk is a challenge if you are not well-versed in CyberArk."
"With PAS, they escalate our problems in due time, not so much with EPM."
"It could be more user-friendly. Sometimes I encounter issues, and I do not know what the issue is."
"The web interface has come a long way, but the PrivateArk client seems clunky and not intuitive. It could use an update to be brought up to speed with the usability of PVWA."
"The solution is very expensive and requires a license."
"As a customer, I might need a plugin for a specific product, or an application, and CyberArk might have already worked with some other client on it. There has to be some platform where it is available for everybody else to go and grab it, instead of my having to reinvent the wheel."
"In Linux credential discovery was a bit hard, but after Senhasegura's latest update, it is much easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Pricing is quite high and it could be improved."
"Our risk is definitely significantly lower. Also, our resources are low."
"It's expensive, certainly. But CyberArk is the leader in the market with regards to privileged access management. You pay a lot, but you are paying for the value that is being delivered."
"This solution is expensive."
"CyberArk DNA is free if you purchase the CyberArk solution. There is no additional charge for CyberArk DNA, which is great."
"It is in line with its competitors, but all such solutions cost too much money."
"The price of CyberArk support could be a little bit less. Otherwise, pricing is fine."
