Effective for password rotation policies triggered by audit requirements, it helps maintain compliance standards and seamless integration with third-party tools
The "App to App" feature has been most impactful. It allows secure communication between applications without requiring direct user access, which is crucial for several applications. Additionally, working in the finance department, we are heavily focused on enhancing audit reporting and compliance. So, the GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) capabilities of Delinea Secret Server have also been crucial for us. We implemented a custom reporting system that can automatically send reports to auditors daily, weekly, or according to your organization's needs. We also upgraded the audit role within Secret Server, allowing auditors to access and analyze the reports directly. Additionally, Secret Server provides comprehensive logging capabilities. Auditors can see what data users access, their access levels, and their activities, including check-in and check-out times. Furthermore, Secret Server helped us manage privileged, elevated access, which we call "K2K." As the lead for this project, I could identify users with the highest access levels and implement specific policies to monitor their activity on servers.

It's an inexpensive, scalable solution that has improved our security
We use Keeper to store passwords We previously kept our passwords in an Excel file. Using Keeper makes us more secure.  Keeper has strong security features.  The password rotation feature could be improved. I have used Keeper for three years. I rate Keeper eight out of 10 for stability.  I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is good."
"I like that you can change the password remotely."
"The discovery engine is really robust and flexible. It had some session management features that are better compared to some other vendors. Overall the GUI is very good and straightforward to operate compared to other solutions. For example, CyberArk and Hitachi tend to be hard to navigate."
"I really like the zero trust piece."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the random changing of passwords."
"The privileged access management, which is the Safe Access Model is the most valuable feature."
"I like that it's user-friendly."
"The user interface is quite good. It's very straightforward."
"It has a double authentication factor increasing the security level."
"It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts."
"Stronger passwords are being used across the board in our organization."
"Password sharing and SSO. These features almost become a necessity to make sure that company data is safe and reduce the possibility of data breach."
"I like Keeper's mobility and its accessibility."
"I can access my passwords from any Internet connected device."
"What I like the most is the fact that I can just mark anything and it is automatically copied into the clipboard."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
 

Cons

"Delinea Secret Server can improve by extending the monitoring policies and making the performance better."
"We always ask for partner enablement, which is more like a soft requirement rather than a product requirement. It would be great if they can provide us deeper knowledge of their products for integration."
"One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic."
"The integration with the ticketing system ServiceNow is complex."
"The technical support needs improvement. For example, if you have any problems on the server configuring the IIS, they would provide you very limited details and they would tell you the problem is on your end."
"I think that the main interface should integrate better with non-standard applications and clients, to connect with other systems."
"The initial setup and deployment can be cumbersome."
"Support could be better. I have heard about a lot of problems in the Bangladesh market. People are saying that there are support issues. So, Delinea should focus on support and services."
"The technical support for this solution could be faster support and improved if they had a better understanding of my questions."
"Keeper does not provide password management for mobile apps."
"They could possibly add a pre-designed contact feature that would work similar to a cell phone contact feature."
"API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage."
"Needs to improve KeeperFill on iOS."
"If you purchase the premium, then after the subscription expires, you cannot edit your passwords any longer, even if you could before you purchased the paid subscription."
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
"I would love it if you didn't have to re-authenticate when you start up a new browser."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is standard in this business and we have no complaints about it."
"I would give the price a four on a scale from one to ten, with one being the cheapest and ten being the most expensive. We pay for the license on a yearly basis, and we paid for three years. It costs around 5000 a year."
"It isn't terribly expensive."
"Its price is okay. We don't compete on pricing. We seldom use price to win over our competitors. We prefer it this way because if we can sustain the price, we make more margin as well. We don't want the price to go down to the bottom where despite the win, there's no margin at all."
"There are different plans and additional licensing costs that can be instituted for add-ons."
"Secret Server is expensive when compared to the cost to some alternatives."
"It would be beneficial if it were reduced."
"When comparing the price of Thycotic Secret Server with other solutions it is reasonable."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
"Its price is reasonable."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
