Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"After storing the administrator password in this password vault of the solution, the solution can automatically go and change the password based on the defined frequency with the defined complexity.""One of the main benefits we've experienced is that Arcon helps us manage all our team's tasks and provides recording capabilities.""Technical support is good. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.""Session recording is the most valuable feature, as it covers compliance and it also covers our in-house applications.""The deployment process for the solution was easy...The solution's technical support team was good.""Logging, particularly screen recording for Windows RDP sessions. Also, command-logging for SSH sessions. This really helps us to see what commands/changes have been executed in a particular service at a given point of time, and by whom.""We use ARCON Privileged Access Management to monitor and record our admin users' activity.""They don't just stick to a base version; instead, they actively enhance and improve it based on client feedback and industry trends."

"All the features are promising, but we love the reporting feature because we can get each and every report. That's a major compliance requirement. Its reporting is really amazing, and it has made life a lot easier.""One of the most important things is that it is very easy to use and install. It is also agentless, so all of the operations happen more smoothly than any other product.""In terms of the user experience, it is a pretty useful product. It works in a good way.""All sessions are audited and they are indexed/searchable through the GUI.""The initial setup is very easy.""The solution's most valuable features are the efficiency and the quality of the recording.""Being able to use a proxy server is an advantage.""The solution transparently integrates into the infrastructure and users do not notice it. I would give this feature the highest rating."

Cons
"It should support the SQL Always On platform with FQDN name instead of IP.""If an ID gets locked, the tool cannot unlock it, making it an area where improvements are required.""This product is lacking in terms of dashboarding analytics and should have user behavior analytics. It should also have better dashboarding for executive management and security managers, which this product is missing.""I would like for it to be dependent on Windows as opposed to Linux.""The solution needs more work on the password management side of things. Password management is a big challenge for us, and I would like to improve this aspect. We're finding that BeyondTrust is better in this regard, which is why we're probably going to migrate over. It will offer better security I think.""One common problem I faced with ARCON PAM was compatibility issues with certain software versions.""The product is browser dependent. As of now, it only works on Internet Explorer from the client side. Admins cannot use any other browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc.) to access the client manager online.""Hazard flow could be improved, the data compliance portion."

More ARCON Privileged Access Management Cons →

"The SPS could be a lot easier to administrate and the parts should be unified, from a design perspective, so that I can recognize the systems as being part of the same package. They feel like they have been forced together.""Our experience with technical support has been disappointing. We require more prompt and faster response times. We require answers to our questions right away but we haven't received that level of support.""Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced.""Transparent mode was too cumbersome, so I don't foresee us being able to use it. On paper when we were initially talking about it, it was definitely going to be the preferred method until we realized the burden it would be on our network guys. Then, we had to step back and reevaluate what we wanted to do. That's when we changed our approach to use the RD Gateway feature.""We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS.""The automated change of the passwords, which is now integrated, could be improved to be more flexible regarding different systems.""We currently have a problem with the Active Directory integrations on Windows. Some of our users need to be logged with Active Directory, but we are having communication issues between One Identity and Active Directory. It seems that Active Directory is not well-integrated.""I just received a question from a customer in regards to a connection with Oracle OID. I tried to integrate Safeguard with the Oracle YAML as well as something else to manage the groups and users from a different system, like AD or LDAP. This one feature could be better. At this moment, the platform system can only use the integration with LDAP or AD. The software for research and development to create a connector to a YAML platform can be very complicated."

  • "Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
  • "Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
  • "It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
  • "They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
  • "The full license is expensive but if you plan to use it in a big organization then it is the best option because it is more flexible."
  • "It is a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. You don't want to get anything too cheap because then you get cheap stuff and cheap support. That really never helps anybody."
  • "The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
  • "We have a yearly license. The cost depends on how much a company wants to invest in technology. In our organization, we believe in modern digitization and automation processes so we found it affordable. One Identity was not that much less than other solutions and it is not a cheap solution. There were number of cheaper solutions. However, it's the most effective, according to our evaluation."
