"The tool helps with authentication. It acts as an MFA for any kind of privileged access that occurs in our organization."
"It has machine learning and can help clients to learn the environment and understand what is happening."
"The initial setup of CyberArk Identity was straightforward."
"The setup, via cloud, is simple."
"The integration capabilities, ability to integrate CyberArk into the overall IBB strategy of our current clients."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"Having a single sign-on to all our applications."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The product’s most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"We face no challenges in integrating the product with our legacy systems."
"The solution can scale very well."
"It's easy to use and straightforward."
"Enabled MFA to access federated applications as well as increased user satisfaction through improved provisioning times and more reliable processes."
"It is dependent on the evolution of your user base. It depends on usage per user, so the more sign-ins there are, the more expensive it becomes, so it works best for smaller companies from a financial perspective."
"The user interface could be improved."
"In terms of general user feedback, the more security you put in front of a user, the more they complain. So usability and the user experience are always a challenge. So there's always room for improvement."
"They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature."
"CyberArk Identity could improve by having the ability to better manage the network, such as Cisco. There seem to be some issues in this area."
"More integrations would be better."
"CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The OpenID features could improve in CyberArk Identity."
"The product needs to leverage the cloud more, especially in the financial sector, where cloud adoption might be limited. Proper reporting within the cloud is essential. The tool should be more user-friendly to expedite access for users. The current agent-based system poses challenges if a user loses access to the server, making tasks difficult to perform. It should also improve technical support."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
"It is challenging to obtain a comprehensive backup."
"On the admin side, we can create our own passwords instead of generating one, which is usually difficult to explain to a user."
"It would be pricing, which is a tough one because it goes against Microsoft. A lot of companies say they're a Microsoft partner, and they get all their software for free. Okta is like a luxury product, and it's not the most affordable one. I would say if they could work on pricing, it would help. Other than that, they've done great strides in developing a product that is really good. The companies that do see the value tend to invest in it."
"The solution lacks an on-premises deployment model so it can't offer a hybrid solution. It would be ideal if clients had options that weren't just cloud-based."
"SSO and MFA for improved end-user experience, and protection against password spray attacks, account password self-service."
"The error logging could be improved. Okta doesn't provide enough details when you are troubleshooting an issue. It's often difficult to fix it from our end, so we always need additional support from Okta."
"The product does not offer enough integration capabilities."
