Delinea Privileged Access Service Reviews

This solution manages privileged access for all of our privileged accounts.

This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy.

This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak. Other companies have invested very heavily in third-party tools and Centrify does support them well.

In the future, I would like to see support for containerization, CICD pipelines, and software-defined infrastructure. This is going to be critical and it is where this solution lags behind the competitors.

I have been using Centrify for the past four and a half years.

We have had no issues in terms of stability.

Being a SaaS platform, it is easy to scale.

The technical support is quite good. When I was implementing this solution, they were able to assist me and did a good job.

Setting up the product is quite straightforward. However, migrating services and applications to it are always complicated because of the problems that you have with the applications.

The price model is based on the number of devices and opposed to the number of users, and it is not very flexible. This means that if an organization is growing from an infrastructure perspective then the cost can escalate.

The suitability of this solution depends on the environment because every organization is different. If somebody is looking for a straightforward PAM that is easy to deploy then I would recommend Centrify. If on the other hand, they have a more advanced or more complex environment with a software-defined infrastructure then I would suggest they use another solution.

I would rate this solution a six out of ten.

We primarily use this solution to utilize local IDs and fix up specific endpoints. In addition, we use the solution to identify the people using our service accounts and how they use them. 

The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets because it helps keep track of inventory. Currently, our inventory is managed manually, so the author discovery feature is beneficial.

There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration because we have experienced multiple lockouts due to expired passwords.

We purchased the most recent version of Delinea Privileged Access Service recently and began using it in 2022. It is deployed on-premises.

It is a stable solution.

We believe the solution is scalable to an extent. However, its scalability depends on the server size.

We have had no problems with the support team. They get back to us within the agreed timeframe.

We had challenges during setup because it was deployed on-premises, and our system needed to adjust to the compatibility. Additionally, we were not expecting the storage to take up a lot of space at the onset, but we have made the necessary adjustments.

We implemented the tool through our vendor and in-house engineers.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten. My advice to others who are looking to start using this tool is to select the cloud version.

One of our customers uses this solution in conjuction with Idaptive. They use it on-premises and in the cloud for Privileged Access Management, Identity Management and especially for the powerful audit functionalities.

There is more control over shared administrative accounts. Accountability is a big part of compliance requirements and the attestation reports are very useful when preparing for external audits.

Being able to access servers, web applications, network devices, etc. securely from anywhere, with MFA. Workflows can be added for extra security. There are powerful auditing & reporting features available, and Privileged Account Management is made easy. And they have excellent support.

The product does provide alerting, but it might be useful if the process of setting up the alerts can be simplified.

However, they provide a feedback platform where users can request new features for future releases. We have requested a feature update and it will be included at some point.

We have been using Centrify Zero Trust Privilege for two years now.

It's a very stable solution. You have to ensure High Availability through multiple connectors.

During the initial setup, you have to do a lot of planning because it's your security product. But you can scale up to thousands of servers; thousands of users. This solution is ideal for small, medium and large businesses. And it is scalable. You can start with a few users, and the benefit is huge. This product is for companies of all sizes.

The technical support is excellent.

No.

The initial setup is a bit complex, but once the infrastructure is there and all the components have been installed, it's easy and straightforward to maintain. All the components have logging capabilities so it's easy to identify issues. The duration of the deployment depends on the customer, since downtime might be required for reboots. Some firewall changes are required.

Inhouse implementation, with Centrify support to assist

N/A

Setup takes a while but - as with any new installation - planning is very important. After the initial setup has been completed, it is easy to scale out

Cost might be a deciding factor. However, it integrates with a multitude of other vendors and all of the capabilities have to be taken into account. It provides more than just Privileged Access Management.

CyberArk. However, since the products have different features, it depends on the use case. In our case, Centrify gave the customer more benefits, since they already had other solutions in place as well.

Planning is very important. However, if you encounter any issues, support is excellent and always assist in a timely fashion.
