An easy-to-use tool that offers its users strong security on the password management front
In my company, we use the solution's dictionary rule to see the availability of passwords or for the integration to other external systems with two-factor authentication The most valuable feature of the solution is that it's a standard product to help our customers implement a solution and to…

With its extension, I can quickly access login information without opening a new browser window
Passportal's stability is okay. However, it goes down a little too often for me to recommend it to somebody else. I can only remember one or two outages with IT Glue. With Passportal, it gets frustrating when you need to reset a password for a client, and you have to put their global admin address in there because what you're doing requires admin privileges. But you can't get in there because Passportal isn't working, and the password might be a 48-character password. If it's down for five minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes — that's too long. It's a real inconvenience. It doesn't happen all the time, but I've been at this job two months, and it's probably happened three or four times. I don't like this. I'm used to having it right at my fingertips. I need access now. With the influx of tickets coming in and time management, it needs to be like that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Password Manager is very effective at helping users reset their passwords."
"One Identity Password Manager is a stable solution."
"It is an absolutely scalable solution...The product is easy to install."
"What I found most valuable in One Identity Password Manager is its easy use. It's a flexible solution. It also supports many languages, including Arabic."
"The solution is very customizable."
"It does have advantages over the other products that we are seeing. Other products don't have the out-of-the-box OTP option, whereas One Identity Password Manager has the out-of-the-box OTP option. It also has a cloud-based solution for generating OTPs. So, the customers can either opt for their own SMS gateway, or they can use the One Identity OTP option where they don't have to have an SMS gateway. With other products, customers must have their own SMS gateway."
"It is extremely simple to integrate with various systems, including OTP, passwords, and so on because everything is based on our environment."
"It provides seamless integration with different types of password modules like temporary access passcode and MFA."
"I like Passportal's extensions. You can click the particular company you want and go through all the passwords and usernames associated with that company or the specific webpage you're on or their server or whatever. It's a whole lot faster."
"Passportal is very stable."
 

Cons

"The UI needs improvement to match any other standard password manager because it's not very intuitive right now."
"I would like it to be more secure in terms of password storage."
"The software is complex on the backend, and there isn't enough documentation."
"An area for improvement in One Identity Password Manager is the management gap since Quest is no longer under Dell, and One Identity is under Quest. The management gap resulted in poor support, which needs improvement."
"One Identity Password Manager could improve the integration with other technology, it is complex for integrating. There needs to be more connectors or adapters. There is limited out-of-the-box customization."
"The improvement required is an increase in the number of people who manage the product's support team."
"There is a need for better Windows Eleven compatibility, especially for resetting passwords before login."
"If there is a self-service option to update the mobile number, it will be much more useful."
"In the future, I would like the ability to have diagrams, such as those created by Visio, available directly in Passportal."
"It goes down a little too often for me to recommend it to somebody else."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is on the cheaper side. It has a perpetual license, and everything is included in the license. You only have to pay separately for the SMS gateway or the OTP part."
"The licensing for One Identity Password Manager depends on the customer's requirement. For example, it could be one year, or it could be three years. In general, One Identity Password Manager is not an expensive product. Pricing for it is competitive."
"Though the solution's price is reasonable, it depends on the number of users operating at the customer's end."
"The price of One Identity Password Manager is average. There are other solutions that are more expensive, such as ARCON and others that are less expensive."
"It is not that expensive, as far as I recall. It was approximately $1.50 USD per user or something like that."
"We pay the license fee monthly and the price is reasonable."
