We performed a comparison between IBM Security QRadar and One Identity Safeguard based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two User Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are all the implementations, the plug-ins, and the User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."
"A nice benefit is when we go to the process of selecting our youth cases, they go by building blocks. QRadar links it to building blocks."
"The most valuable feature is the machine learning module."
"Due to the skills shortage, we are able to use it from the standpoint of bringing in a lower level employee or a person who may not have security knowledge."
"The scalability is good."
"The rule engine is very easy to use — very flexible."
"Flexible and valuable product that is modular, so you can easily set up a roadmap for your clients."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with the GRD, for banking."
"The extensible framework for authentication is one of the most valuable features. We use an MFA plug-in and a lot of different factors, depending on what the business use-cases are. And of course, the auditing functionality is also valuable."
"The solution's most valuable features are the efficiency and the quality of the recording."
"The whole product solves the privileged access management challenge for our company. We have a secure tunnel, a secure session manager, and automatic logging of sessions, which is good for forensic purposes. We have a rich level of logs and can trace what happened on which machine and see who did what."
"In terms of the user experience, it is a pretty useful product. It works in a good way."
"Being able to use a proxy server is an advantage."
"We use the solution’s “transparent mode” feature for privileged sessions. It is very easy because it is only a simple configuration for our users. We don't have to modify our network. We install it, configure it, and it works. So, it is super easy. The rollout for our users is seamless."
"It's a good solution for managing identities under OneFile for authorization."
"It's one of the best products we've seen. When you start looking at the functionality and use cases and usability of the product, it's straightforward. They designed this product with the end-user in mind, and they also had the sysadmin who is supporting the product in mind. They really did a nice job. Overall, it's a nice product to work with."
"We sometimes get an error about the hard drive. Approximately once in two months, we can't find the logs, and they go missing, which is a terrible issue. We are getting support for this issue from our support company."
"There is a shortage of skilled individuals with knowledge about the solution. There is training required."
"The released patch quality is poor. IBM should test those patches on their side, not on the client's side."
"Do your research before implementing it, because it is tough to implement."
"There could be better integration with the solution."
"The tool is very complicated. One place for improvement would be to have a more user-friendly interface. Having better support in Spanish would be cool."
"They have to build more quantitative monitoring, profiling, and make it more predictive."
"A lot of information that we receive for the devices is IP-based, but it would help if we could have a default dashboard in which we can add more details about the assets for which we are receiving the information. For example, if it is a Windows or Linux device, we only get the IP for that particular device. We don't really get the name and other details of that particular device. For that, you have to drill down into your own asset management system. It would be good to have a place where we can probably add this information so that we don't have to look into other tools."
"We would like to be able to generate certificate signing requests (CSRs) from the interface for certificates."
"The main point regarding the user experience is that Safeguard has two separate management consoles."
"We have feature requests and would like to see the turnaround times on those features to be faster."
"Even though we have two nodes, there's no way to do an upgrade without taking everything completely offline. It would be nice if they could improve that."
"When we compare One Identity Safeguard with Cyberark, we know CyberArk has other tools or other features that are more complex and more useful for the customers. For example, I have one customer that wants to elevate the permission that is available in CyberArk."
"Some of our users find the functionality a bit complex, and it could be made more user-friendly."
"The product uses a lot of resources in current sessions."
"Support for One Identity Safeguard could be improved because sometimes the support team doesn't have an answer or solution for some bugs. A feature I found in a competitor would make One Identity Safeguard better, and that is the ability to load balance the traffic in the target."
