Streamlined access management through integration and simplified setup
Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers. It integrates well with single sign-on (SSO) and Ansible Playbooks, allowing me to manage inventories easily. Teleport provides a straightforward setup process with a single command line, making it easier to manage the onboarding and offboarding of team members.

Enhancing administration security with critical feature improvements needed
My primary use case is to make a training about Active Directory security. In my experience, I work with Bastion. I emphasize the importance of having a good knowledge of Bastion to avoid vulnerabilities It helps by providing some security features for administration, although it's crucial to be…

Pros

"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."
"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."
"The interface is very simple. It doesn't need any plug-ins, just browsers that are installed at the beginning."
"I like that it's Linux-based, and you don't need to have separate implementations, extra database licenses, or enterprise licenses. I think because it's Linux-based, it's more seamless than Windows. I also like the access manager, which I think is a super tool. Everything is browser-based, and you don't need a VPN. So, that's a great thing."
"Bastion provides a kind of isolation between the administration laptop and the server you want to administer."
"WALLIX Bastion's most valuable feature is the Access Manager because you can use it and access the data center without any client VPN."
"Bastion provides a kind of isolation between the administration laptop and the server you want to administer."
"The support is great. They offer 24/7 support, but the specific level of support depends on your subscription. There's a weekday-only option, and a 24/7 option that covers all days of the week. They also have offices in different regions, including West Africa, so people there can easily get support. There's no need to worry about getting assistance."
"We use WALLIX Bastion to provide access and to monitor sessions."
"Its video recording capabilities have definitely been key for us."
 

Cons

"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"There could be more automation features for the solution."
"It would be better if I could manage multiple accounts in one place, like CyberArk. With WALLIX, you can only manage one account, and you are given a separate category. You have to click on each connection to do anything. For example, CyberArk might give three options for one connection if you want to have an interactive user-level experience. But with WALLIX, you have to click three times to get that access. Also, the biggest disadvantage of WALLIX is the reporting. I feel like it's very weak in reporting when compared to the other solutions. As a solution, they're good and stable. But they need to make their reports neater and better. Right now, we're going to the console and then pressing buttons every single time."
"For me, the main issue has to do with the system performance itself."
"Based on my experience as a sales tech person, one area of improvement could be a more unified licensing model."
"The password management needs improvement. Management of Access Manager should be improved as well."
"The product doesn't have behavior analytics. They promised to develop this, but only for the cloud, not for on-premise versions."
"There should be more effort to increase the level of security."
"The main problem of Bastion, CyberArk, and WALLIX is that they have the same interface for both administration and users, which is not a good idea from a security perspective."
