Offers security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed
There are a couple of things. One is the BreachWatch feature. It's one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords. So, it checks the passwords and helps improve them. There's also a security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed. Some people haven't changed their passwords for months, even though applications force them to change every 45 or 90 days. So you can catch those issues and warn them. Most applications allow for rotation, but some don't. I've seen people use the same password for years. At least Keeper tells us these passwords haven't been rotated, and we can warn them to change them manually since we can't force people to change the password.

Easy to integrate, good documentation and automatically picks and provisions new resources based on tagrs
We've had a few issues in the past, but those have all been resolved based on interactions with StrongDM and the addition of some new features to the product. For example, the egress routing functionality solved a fair amount of our problems. So, I don't think there are any outstanding issues that we're aware of or have complained about. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. The only reason it's not a ten is that there's some automated patching that happens in the background. This was years ago, but we had some issues where that were causing us problems, and we had no way of scheduling it at different times.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"BreachWatch feature is one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords."

"All of the logging is handled for us, including for auditing purposes. Looking through the audit logs is not a painful experience."
"StrongDM replaced the puzzle of different solutions with one single product, which made managing resources more efficient."
 

Cons

"The final implementation was challenging because we had to roll it out to three different departments within the same umbrella, each with its own domains."
"We've had a few issues with the stability of this product in the past."
"It would be beneficial to have better control and alignment between frequent updates and improved communication regarding possible negative effects on existing customer bases."

Questions from the Community

What needs improvement with KeeperPAM?
We had some challenges with the initial setup.
What is your primary use case for KeeperPAM?
We primarily use it to ensure that all our people store their passwords in KeeperPAM and do not have multiple sources for their passwords, including Excel. We also share passwords through KeeperPAM...
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for StrongDM?
The licensing is per user per month. It's pretty close to the same or in line with all of the other pricing for tools that do similar things.
What needs improvement with StrongDM?
We started to use it as a client-side or split tunnel VPN. We are unable to overwrite the endpoints and direct traffic that way, but that's a technical limitation, and I understand why it's there.
What is your primary use case for StrongDM?
We use it for zero-trust privileged access.
