Find out what your peers are saying about CyberArk, Proofpoint, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in User Activity Monitoring."The biggest feature is the security of the overall solution. It's very secure. The vaulting technology and the number of security layers involved in the vault, where privileged accounts are actually stored, is the heart of the solution."
"Creating policies and the password rotation feature have been valuable. We don't have to memorize our password for the ADM account."
"With CyberArk, you can be fully confident that your existing accounts are secure. You will be 100 percent"
"Lessens the risk with privileged access."
"The threat analytics is an important feature."
"The risk of lost password and forbidden access to resources has been drastically reduced which increased the security level for the entire company,"
"Within the solution, I love the fact that everything is recorded. The configuration capabilities are great, too."
"Central Password Manager is useful for agentless automated password management through AD integration as well as endpoints for different devices."
"ObserveIT is small, easy to use, easy to deploy, and is not complicated, so it's more generally suited for only SMBs. It's a good value with a cheaper price."
"I would like to see better usability for non-technical people."
"There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's a pretty complex solution."
"It can be integrated with other systems, but it is not easy to integrate. It takes too long to integrate it. Its integration should be easier and simpler."
"Tech support staff can be more proactive."
"They can do a better job in the PSM space."
"It should be easier to install. It is a comprehensive product, which makes it difficult to install. You need to have their consulting services in order to get it all installed and set up correctly because there is so much going on. It would be nice if there were an easier way to do the installation without professional services. I suspect they get a fair amount of their money from professional services. So, there is not a huge incentive."
"The usual workload is sometimes delayed by the solution."
"The solution needs better features for end users to manage their own whitelisting for API retrieval."
"ObserveIT is not scalable and it's not for the medium to large corporations. It's for the smaller environments. For the larger corporations, we have other scalable solutions."
