We performed a comparison between BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management and Delinea Secret Server 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."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."
"Scalability is good. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten."
"The features related to application elevate is amazing. It helped the company to remove almost all admin local users."
"The most valuable feature is the asset discovery, which makes it very easy to locate and identify assets and pull them into the manager."
"One of the valuable features is the absence of any local user in a unique system. All users are defined in the AD; communication is only between Unix and AD."
"The solution's least privilege enforcement has helped us ensure access is given to only the required people."
"The privileged access management into sensitive systems is very valuable. That includes control from the endpoint all the way through to the managing of passwords and credentials that are used by the person to access the sensitive information. It's very useful, because nobody ever really maintains passwords for those endpoint systems. It's maintained in the Dropbox password file."
"The notable aspect is its ability to capture the application's behavior comprehensively and this thorough analysis is crucial for effective policy management."
"The product provides a native user experience without requiring users to install additional software or agents."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it provides us with a secure way of managing passwords."
"Provides us with the ability to control access [to secrets] by groups."
"The discovery engine is really robust and flexible. It had some session management features that are better compared to some other vendors. Overall the GUI is very good and straightforward to operate compared to other solutions. For example, CyberArk and Hitachi tend to be hard to navigate."
"The user interface is quite good. It's very straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the random changing of passwords."
"I like that it is Windows-based. It is good that primarily, it is not an appliance. Some of the other applications in the space, such as a Quest Software CPAM or a Safeguard, are appliances, so you can't deploy the ends of them. With Thycotic, you can either install your Temporal Protection module physically in the VM host, or you can use BouncyCastle for high-security module capabilities."
"We implemented the product for our privileged identities. We have configured them in check-in/check-out rotation. Delinea Secret Server rotates the password each time a privileged identity is checked in, making the password valid only for some time."
"How the accounts are presented in the solution's UI can be improved."
"The other area to improve is that they rely on MS SQL servers only. You cannot have any other database behind them. They have to be on MS SQL. If they can do something about these issues, this would be a better alternative for some customers."
"We use a program to automate all of this, but it's not a default feature of BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management."
"Reports to the end user."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"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."
"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."
"It only has limited support for Mac."
"The API is no good."
"We always ask for partner enablement, which is more like a soft requirement rather than a product requirement. It would be great if they can provide us deeper knowledge of their products for integration."
"Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."
"In many PAM tools, when users request a password checkout, they need to provide justification. However, in my experience across four organizations, nobody actually reads the justifications. Users can simply type anything and get the password. This becomes a risk and compliance issue. There needs to be continuous improvement in this area, focusing on problem identification and mitigation strategies."
"In terms of what could be improved, the whole thing with distributed engines, et cetera, is a little bit tricky."
"An area for improvement in Delinea Secret Server is its integration with ICAP servers."
"Documentation could be improved if they were to include more about connectors. There is not enough documentation."
"Installation can sometimes be difficult, depending on the environment."
