We integrate the CyberArk components with the UiPath Orchestrator tool to manage all the passwords for our bots. We put all our automations on a VM, which runs the script. That's what we call a "bot," but we need service accounts to manage all these. We have customers with hundreds or thousands of bots, and it's challenging for us to manage the credentials for those service accounts. We use CyberArk to rotate the passwords 30 to 60 days, depending on the customer requirement.
CyberArk gives us that functionality. We have a credential vault where all the passwords are stored, and we can rotate them by connecting UiPath to CyberArk. We store the credentials for those bots in the vault, and CyberArk rotates the password, communicates with the orchestrator, and gives back the username and password. UiPath Orchestrator is the central control tower, if you will. It accesses those VMs using those passwords and runs the automation.
The two most valuable features of CyberArk Identity for us are password rotation and the ease of integration with UiPath Orchestrator.
I don't have any feedback for ways Identity could improve — at least not for this use case.
I've been using CyberArk Identity for about a year and a half.
CyberArk Identity is very stable. We haven't had any issues at all.
Identity is more scalable than some other products I've tried. Others have some limitations in terms of environments, layers, and segregating different service accounts. The majority of my customers use it for their entire company, so that's a lot of users. However, I couldn't estimate the user base on average.
I work on the integration side, so I haven't dealt with CyberArk's tech support much. We only called them one time when the CyberArk component was offline, and they helped troubleshoot it to get the services back up and running. It was just all done within one call. We haven't really had any other issues. And I think the support was pretty good.
CyberArk Identity is kind of expensive.
I rate CyberArk Identity 10 out of 10. Identity is the tool that offers the most seamless integration with UiPath Orchestrator and the most utility from an automation perspective.
