We performed a comparison between BeyondTrust Password Safe and Delinea Secret Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Password Managers solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The actual innovations offered by the vendor stand out to me. They are quick to respond to market demands and the changing environment of privileged access management."
"I like the session recording feature. I also like the analytics and reports. You can pull up a report, and the UI is fantastic. The system is recording when nobody's there, so we have a record of what's happening."
"Smart Rules is a nice feature in BeyondTrust. It is a unique feature that BeyondTrust has as compared to other vendors such as CyberArk. With Smart Rules, you can do automatic onboarding of accounts. There are a lot of options and features. For example, you can do onboarding based on different AD attributes. It is a nice feature in BeyondTrust that some of the other PAM vendors don't have. With other vendors, we have to create our own scripts, whereas, with BeyondTrust, we can just use the in-built Smart Rules."
"BeyondTrust Password Safe is a good PAM tool."
"Session recording, password rotation, and password vaulting are the most valuable features."
"The CI/CD and REST API are also satisfactory; the solution has a full PAM feature set and they all work well."
"The solution protects organizations from internal and external threats."
"It simplifies your compliance and tracking to benchmark other credentials and analytics."
"I like that it's user-friendly."
"I really like the zero trust piece."
"One valuable feature is that it will support a dedicated database. Delinea provides multiple features, like reporting and remote password changes."
"Ease of use because of its monolithic software."
"It offers the possibility of secure administration of hardware devices, as well as Linux systems administration from a Windows environment."
"It is able to manage storage and use of personal passwords."
"Technical support is pretty good."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it provides us with a secure way of managing passwords."
"The integration with Secure Remote Access must be improved."
"The only feature they could improve is the banners because they aren't informative. For example, if something is not correct and I open the error notification, the dialogue box simply says, "This is an error." It would be great if they could provide some valuable comments about how to fix the errors."
"We'd like to have incremental backups to ensure the solution's information is protected regularly."
"Documentation is the primary area of improvement."
"There is a limited capacity on the appliance, which I wasn't informed about when I purchased the product. I can have a maximum of 150 rules per appliance; any more than that and rule processing becomes very complex, especially regarding password revision. Hitting a capacity limit you don't know about can be problematic. Ideally, we would not have a limited capacity, allowing us to be in a completely managed state with password rotation for every service account, not just the highly privileged ones."
"It has crashed on us in the past."
"The database instance onboarding should be simplified. The problem is that you can scan the assets and databases inside a server, but you cannot onboard them or manage them with the smart tools. It has to be done manually. I think they should try to include more custom platforms."
"Its documentation can be improved. Its documentation is currently complicated, and it is not good. It needs to be better. Their technical support can also be improved. It is not bad, but it can be better."
"It would be better if they had a Linux version of the secret server."
"What needs improvement? The product can be improved by reducing the number of updates provided."
"Delinea Secret Server can improve by extending the monitoring policies and making the performance better."
"I would like to see improvement with the integration with Azure Active Directory. This would mean that we can have support on multiple platforms such as Windows, Linux, and Mac."
"This product is excellent in every way except minor details in handling extremely large environments."
"The initial setup and deployment can be cumbersome. It's not an easy process."
"We could definitely use some help with API tokenization. If we had a way to store tokens that would be fabulous."
"As I am partial to CyberArk, I rate Thycotic Password Reset Server as a nine out of ten, owing to the minor glitches I mentioned."
