Find out in this report how the two Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like the integrations for external applications."
"Increased our insight into how privileged accounts are being used and distributed within our footprint."
"It's secure and reliable. I especially appreciate that it's locked down and only allows access to authorized components."
"I really like the PTA (Privileged Threat Analytics). I find this the best feature."
"The most important feature is managing the credentials and implementing those policies which rotate the credentials. Session Manager is also key in not letting the users have access to those credentials. Instead, CyberArk actually manages everything by itself."
"Helped us meet our standards and requirements to help us comply with industry standards and banking regulations."
"We are maintaining compliance in PCI, SOX and HIPPA, which is a big thing. Auditors really like it, and it has made us stay compliant."
"Securely protects our TAP/NUID and privileged access accounts within the company."
"It's very easy to implement everything."
"Comprehensive ecosystem."
"The single sign-on procedure itself, as well as the ability to connect to external user sources such as Microsoft Active Directory and LDAP servers, are the solution's most valuable features."
"Some of the valuable features of the solution are the easy integration with processes, such as Single Sign-On. Overall WSO2 is straightforward and does not need customization."
"The solution gets the job done, and we don't have to do the main configuration."
"I would rate the solution's stability eight or nine out of ten."
"The keystore feature has been most valuable for us."
"The product provides easy integration between API manager and IT server components."
"If we could have some kind of out-of-the box feature that you can simply say "no" so they don't have to go into a development mode, that would a really helpful feature."
"Overall what I would really love to see is the third-party PAS reporter tool pulled more into the overall solution, ideally as its own deployable component service installation package."
"It's hard to find competent resellers/support."
"Initial setup is complex. Lots of architecture, lots of planning, and lots of education and training are needed."
"The greatest area of improvement is with the user interface of the Password Vault Web Access component."
"The documentation is rather basic and it is missing many use cases."
"The solution could improve by adding more connectors."
"The tool’s pricing and scalability can be better."
"This solution does not have BPM workflows already integrated, we had to integrate the BPM module externally. They do not provide full-featured auditing and certification modules out of the box."
"There needs to be a good support model and easy-to-understand documentation."
"I found the initial setup to be very complex."
"The solution seems to be pretty outdated."
"This solution requires extensive knowledge to be used effectively as certain areas of its use are not user friendly."
"Sometimes working with the code is difficult because I search for documentation about the code and how to work with the code, which is where I believe they should improve, by providing some documentation on how to work with the code."
"The high availability architecture has to be improved."
"The solution could improve its development from a user perspective."
