We performed a comparison between CyberArk Identity and Ping Identity Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The user self-service program and the Office 365 provisioning service feature are the most valuable. It is a very easy and feature-rich solution that gives priority to the users and security."
"The solution helps with auditing, and monitoring, and integrates with Splunk for log analysis. User activity logs are captured in CyberArk Identity and sent to external tools like Splunk for analysis and monitoring."
"CyberArk Identity is a mature product."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"The integration capabilities, ability to integrate CyberArk into the overall IBB strategy of our current clients."
"The tool helps with authentication. It acts as an MFA for any kind of privileged access that occurs in our organization."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Identity is the adaptive interface."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable feature is multifactor authentication."
"PingFederate gives you granular control over the settings. There are many options for fine-tuning policies."
"This is a user-friendly solution."
"PingFederate is very flexible. We can do many customizations, and it also provides an SDK to tailor it to our specific requirements. There are also numerous plugins available. I've worked with tools like ForgeRock and Okta, but I find PingFederate to be the most customizable."
"The only feature we were looking for in PingID was SSO integration with our existing web app."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I like the self-service feature. The 502 and UBP systems are also excellent. PingID's ability to authenticate with SSH, RDP, and Windows login is pretty handy. It covers the entire spectrum of use."
"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."
"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."
"The OpenID features could improve in CyberArk Identity."
"The tool has issues with the third-party SMS gateway. The solution has its own SMS gateway. Integration support is a challenge when we don’t use their SMS gateway. The tool also needs to improve its scalability."
"They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature."
"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."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"It requires some expertise to set up and manage."
"PingID classifies the type of environment into internal and external, which is an area for improvement because you need to take additional steps to trust internal and external users."
"The initial setup appears to be difficult in the beginning."
"Currently, the main integration is SAML-based, but other integration methodologies need to be supported."
"PingID's device management portal should be more easily accessible via a link. They provide no link to the portal like they do for the service. The passwordless functionality could be more comprehensive. You can't filter based on hardware devices. Having that filtering option would be great. Device authentication would be a great feature."
"I think that the connection with like Microsoft Word, especially for Office 365, is a weak point that could be improved."
"The timing of the token validity, if it could be extended, would be great. I'm not sure if there is even an option to configure these types of settings."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other platforms and the UBT."
