The most valuable feature is the ability to control users with admin rights. Even if developers and senior folks maintain their admin rights, we can still manage their activities. For example, despite having admin rights, we can control what applications they can run on their laptops with their admin rights. This is the main feature provided by CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager. We do not need to notify them that we are modifying their admin rights. We can create and push a policy from the backend. This access control is significant for us. We also get reports on what kinds of activities are performed and which applications are launched from users' laptops.

I love the product. It works very well. I also appreciate the automatic agent updates, which is a new feature for CyberArk EPM. It's good at preventing attacks or threats on infrastructure and data. I can see an incident on the board, and it is clear to analyze what is happening on the endpoint devices. I am able to manage endpoints from a different perspective. You can scale by department. The user interface is quite easy to use. We did immediately begin to see results when using CyberArk. We were able to manage endpoints and see what is happening right away. We've been able to reduce mean time to detect. We can see anything on the report. It's really clear if you need to analyze anything that's happening on endpoints. It helps with data privacy. We can configure the websites and monitor what is happening inside the application. We can see what is happening and what is being monitored. We can record endpoint screens as well - which the users are aware of. It doesn't affect operational efficiency. If you set everything correctly, the user doesn't notice that it is in the background.

We have created automation. If a user is getting an issue, it will automatically give us a pop-up mentioning the platform where the issue is happening. We can then look at the platform to see what is happening there. We are looking into how to reduce password verification failures and reconciliation failures. These failures are not related to CyberArk. They are related to internal usage. We have not had issues with CyberArk. It works very smoothly. We can do many things with CyberArk. It helps us to see exactly what is happening. For example, if a user is out of their account, we can see what exactly is happening. For such issues, we use CyberArk and follow the recommendations. We have improved our system upgrades from a month to just two weeks for around 10,000 computers. Automation implemented by our senior team also provides timely notifications of issues, improving our response time and operational efficiency.
