Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), HashiCorp and others in Enterprise Password Managers."The ability to manage privileged account passwords is the most valuable feature."
"It provides integrated password and session management in one solution, which is important for us because, from an auditing standpoint, we are accountable for the type of access being used. We need to ensure that accounts are securely stored and there is the right type of accountability around who is gaining the access. After gaining it, how they're using it, where they're using it, etc."
"The CI/CD and REST API are also satisfactory; the solution has a full PAM feature set and they all work well."
"It is very easy to deploy. It's easy to use. That's the major thing I like about it."
"It simplifies your compliance and tracking to benchmark other credentials and analytics."
"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."
"Session recording, password rotation, and password vaulting are the most valuable features."
"The performance is good."
"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."
"It is user-friendly. Someone who doesn’t have a lot of IT knowledge can work with the product easily."
"The tool is secure, safe, reliable, and easy to use."
"The product needs to have better integration with SAP products."
"Named accounts don't work well in this solution. If you use named accounts for your administrative access, the way Smart Rules work is that it takes your SAM account name and matches it to the account name of your privileged ID, which creates limitations on size and how big those names can be because the directory has a 20-character limit."
"We don't have much control over the appliance. When anything happens in the backend, we have to depend on the support team. We need to raise a case so that they can update the appliance. If we have control over it, we would be able to troubleshoot easily."
"When we deploy BeyondTrust, we have to deploy our own database on a SQL server. It doesn't deploy the database. I wish BeyondTrust packages the whole solution in one and includes the MySQL database so that when you deploy it, it deploys everything for you. BeyondTrust gives you the software, but you are in charge of setting up your own database. It is a single appliance just for the BeyondTrust portion but not the database. Unless that has changed in later releases, you have to set up your own database for BeyondTrust Password Safe. I find that part complex because we then need the expertise and help of the database team to set it up, which also increases the deployment time. If they can deploy the database, it will reduce the deployment time."
"The integration with Secure Remote Access must be improved."
"It has crashed on us in the past."
"If there was one thing, it would be having the documentation standardized. They should keep the documentation consistent. For example, when BeyondTrust updated one of their admin guides, they left out the information on the discovery account requirements, and then over a period of time, we ended up having to search multiple different documents to put together a string of information for a specific topic, which was problematic. It was minor, but it was problematic. Standardized documentation would be the one thing I would suggest."
"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."
"The user interface could be improved and made more user friendly."
"There is room for improvement in making the UI more user-friendly."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
