Featured Reviews

Hicham Barnoussi - PeerSpot reviewer
A reliable solution with great password and session management
The setup process depends on the environment of the customer. It's not dependent on the solution. For customers with normal use cases and scenarios, it's a straightforward implementation, but for a customer with more than one environment, they may have BeyondTrust in one environment and Safeguard in another one. When they want to consolidate later, there may be complications. It depends on the devices and assets they would like to have under their PAM solution. The standard time for implementation is four weeks. I rate the setup an eight out of ten. There needs to be a dedicated resource for maintenance.
VinayM - PeerSpot reviewer
Used for IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management
The technical support team's response time could be improved. After the implementation, Saviynt should provide good support to their customers. While migrating from legacy applications to the cloud, Saviynt has many bugs. The lift and shift are not very seamless. There are a lot of customizations to be done and some development is required. From the migration point of view, the solution is a little buggy.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are session and password management."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is easy to use."
"Privileged Access Suite's best feature is it's straightforward to use."
"This product works well out of the box and if you don’t want to do a lot of configuration then this is the best tool."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"The product is flexible to use."
"The workflow in Saviynt is easier compared to other tools. It's pretty straightforward."
"Saviynt provides built-in access recommendations, while SailPoint IdentityNow offers access recommendations through a separate AI integration that requires additional licensing. Saviynt functions as a unified platform for various business operations, consolidating user and access data from multiple sources into a single platform. This allows for leveraging the same user base and data across different business functions, including access governance, privileged access management, data access governance, and third-party access governance. In contrast, SailPoint is a decoupled tool, requiring separate integration for managing access and permissions, especially for unstructured data. Saviynt's approach is more integrated and streamlined, providing a unified platform for access recommendations and various business operations."
"Saviynt is used for the greenfield implementation for the whole IAM, IGA, MFA, SSO, and access management."
"The dedicated Freshdesk platform is a user community and a step in the right direction for offering learning resources."
 

Cons

"Product management should be improved."
"Privileged Access Suite's interface could be better."
"There is a new trend of not having any privileged users or accounts."
"The biggest drawback is that for every change you want to make, you have to go back to them and ask for it."
"The technical support team's response time could be improved."
"The custom application integration is a little complex, and this tool doesn't provide so many plugins or additional applications."
"UI and support could be improved. The frequent updates and version changes can be disruptive for large organizations. Not every month, a large organization can go with the changes. Saviynt needs to consider this carefully."
"The tool is difficult to migrate."
"The product can improve the customer support offered to users since it is an area with shortcomings."
"The main difficulty was the integration process itself. But we were able to kind of work through it and fix it. We tried integrating with our HR system and other IBM solutions, like Microsoft Identity Management."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
