ARCON Secure Compliance Management Other Solutions Considered

Enterprise Technology Head at MANTRA TECHNOLOGIES

The customer wanted to have a comparison between CyberArk, Thycotic, and ARCON. They wanted to understand whether Thycotic could work for them or not and we wanted to partner with them if it met certain customer requirements. The customer had to decide for their project in the next financial year, starting sometime in August, September, whether to go with Thycotic or ARCON. They were using CyberArk but they were not very happy with it. So they looked at Thycotic and ARCON. They checked out Thycotic because they were looking at its cloud-based pricing and it was cheaper than ARCON. That is one of the reasons why they looked at Thycotic, as well as the other features it has. But being a government entity, they cannot go for a cloud-based architecture. They need to have an on-prem implementation. 

In Africa, migration to the cloud for services has not taken off. Because of the statutory requirements and concerns, they have not authorized anybody to use cloud services for any security applications, except for standard services like mail and messaging, which is on the cloud. Nothing else is allowed. Every other service is on-premises implementation. That is where the challenges are.
