"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."
"For Cloudflare Access, I am using the free plan...The most valuable feature is their protection."
"The tool also offers good scalability, and the dashboard, along with real-time analytics, is very good."
"Cloudflare, in my opinion, was easy to implement."
"I found the solution to be stable."
"The setup, via cloud, is simple."
"The tool is a very strong and valuable enterprise solution, particularly in ensuring the continuity of service."
"The initial setup of CyberArk Identity was straightforward."
"It has machine learning and can help clients to learn the environment and understand what is happening."
"The feature that we find most valuable is the ability to integrate multiple IDs for on-premises Active Directory."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It takes me up to an hour and a half."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"They don't have a person to provide support for customers using the solution under their free plan."
"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."
"When there are any dynamic changes in complex applications, the tool takes a lot of time, making its analytics-related area a major matter of concern where improvements are needed."
"For the topic of improvement, providing some training material is one of my suggestions."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in documentation. The documentation could be more specific about the changes needed to achieve specific goals."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The product is not cheap, especially if you opt for an on-premise deployment requiring a complex server infrastructure. On the other hand, choosing the software as a service version simplifies infrastructure requirements but necessitates being online all the time."
"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."
"They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature."
