We performed a comparison between BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management and CyberArk Privileged Access Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's least privilege enforcement has helped us ensure access is given to only the required people."
"The implementation is quite easy because the documents are always online."
"I would say session management on the go is the most valuable feature. When the session is going on, you can stop the session without terminating it for justification. You can cancel it. The recording takes very little space. Those are some things which the customers are worried about when they talk about session recording."
"It scales easily and the product is stable."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"It has some features that other products don't have yet, differentiation that sets it apart in the marketplace... Those features are a centralized dashboard and the ability to issue and revoke entitlements within minutes. That makes a difference."
"The tool is easy to use and deploy. It has PAM capabilities like privilege access. The solution helps with the management of third parties and vendors. It is an effective solution compared to other alternatives."
"The privileged access and the application control are helpful in making sure we have good, robust challenge responses. Blacklisting with trusted application protection is also beneficial for us."
"The biggest feature is the security of the overall solution. It's very secure. The vaulting technology and the number of security layers involved in the vault, where privileged accounts are actually stored, is the heart of the solution."
"All access to our servers by both staff and vendors is monitored and recorded."
"On the EBB user side, we were able to secure all the server root passwords and admin for Windows. This was a big win for us."
"The solution helps our developers access internal systems. It also helps us in Privilege Access Management."
"The most valuable feature is that it always provides flexibility, password quality and one-time user check-in and check-out."
"Technical support has been very responsive in navigating challenges. It is very easy to open a ticket."
"The most valuable features of the solution are control and analytics."
"The threat analytics is an important feature."
"Reporting analytics is one of the areas that can be improved. It is a new cloud-based solution. So, many more specific reports can come out natively. Currently, we get all the events, and we put them in plug-ins. From there, we generate our own design of reports. If there is a much more solid or robust reporting analytics framework within the product itself, it would be helpful."
"They are doing good for now, but they should start to consider tight integration with Mac solutions. There should be more integration with Mac. There should be Active Directory (AD) Bridging. Thycotic and Centrify have it currently because they merged and joined forces, and it was a feature available in Centrify. So, basically, they joined forces to create a kind of perfect product. If you have a hybrid or mixed environment with Windows and Mac, your Active Directory can only manage or enforce policies on Windows, but what about your Mac devices? How do you control them? So, AD Bridging will act as a bridge to bring all your Mac devices into your Active Directory. This way you have full control over your entire environment."
"It keeps on breaking every now and then. It is not yet mature. Every time something new comes up or we run into some new issues, the culprit is BeyondTrust because the agents and the adapter are not mature. The new development process goes on, and they're not able to handle things. It should be mature. It shouldn't break every now and then."
"We use a program to automate all of this, but it's not a default feature of BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management."
"The program updates are very rare and the frequency is too far apart to take care of bug fixes and adding the latest features."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"The product should improve its price."
"It should support XWindows Remote Desktop Access protocol for Linux/Unix."
"One thing that could be improved is to create of a better alternative for fixing group policy fees. We currently use Microsoft, but they have introduced new policies that may not be compatible."
"Make it easier to deploy."
"I would like easier integrations for creating an online dashboard that executives would look at or are able to run reports from the tool."
"Performance of PIM could be better and intended for usability as well as security."
"The solution needs better features for end users to manage their own whitelisting for API retrieval."
"The initial setup was somewhat complex."
"Overall what I would really love to see is the third-party PAS reporter tool pulled more into the overall solution, ideally as its own deployable component service installation package."
"We would like to expand the usage of the auto discovery accounts feed, then on our end, tie in the REST API for automation."
