We performed a comparison between ARCON Privileged Access Management and One Identity Safeguard based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The initial setup was very simple. There was only one server we had to setup. We needed to store all the passwords, and a secure database is used."
"It gives us a lot of comfort in terms of security level. Our infrastructure devices and servers are secured and nobody can have unauthorized access to them."
"The entire conversation that is happening between the servers and the client is recorded. It is a good feature if you want to do some analysis, and for investigation."
"100% compliant and you don't have to maintain ID management for each and every user."
"The most valuable feature of ARCON Privileged Access Management is the recording of sessions. It has all the basic features we need to fulfill our use case."
"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."
"Video and audio logs are there for any activities that the privileged admin carries out."
"Technical support is good. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten."
"The monitoring system is very good."
"All sessions are audited and they are indexed/searchable through the GUI."
"It's one of the best products we've seen. When you start looking at the functionality and use cases and usability of the product, it's straightforward. They designed this product with the end-user in mind, and they also had the sysadmin who is supporting the product in mind. They really did a nice job. Overall, it's a nice product to work with."
"It has greatly helped improve our security posture. Safeguard has an option where it will reset passwords on service accounts, then go out to those servers where that service account is running as a service and update the password on it. That makes password changes very easy. We can regularly change passwords now and are planning on making it an annual activity, where all the people who own service accounts will go in and make sure all their passwords get changed, updated, and reset."
"The first feature I like about One Identity Safeguard is the live contact point for the VPNs. This has been working very well for us, as it's both highly available and reliable."
"We are able to log and get reporting on all privileged activity that is being performed. We like the fact that we can leverage the session recording feature, which is especially valuable when we're dealing with third-party vendors that have to remote into our our boxes and servers to do any work on behalf of the bank. Now, we can record everything they are doing to ensure that they're only doing the changes that were needed. In addition, we use it to leverage knowledge transfer with our internal staff."
"The identity discovery is good, and the performance is pretty good value."
"The solution's most valuable features are the efficiency and the quality of the recording."
"I'll provide feedback on additional features after the project is completed. I think it would be better to comment on that after the implementation is finished."
"They need to support all web browsers. At the moment it only supports Explorer, IE. They have to come up with a solution to support all browsers."
"If you take Microsoft hypervisor - which comes with its own interface, its own web layer, etc. - something like that also requires privileged IDs. As per our institution policy now, everything has to come through ARCON. We have demanded that these kind of advanced features also should be there."
"For the in-house built applications, they need to provide good, solid access through their portal."
"The deployment process is a bit complex because no document is available."
"We expect improvement in the dashboards to provide visibility of password compliance status, whenever a password is opened from the vault. Also, flexibility to customize the live dashboard."
"Managing users is difficult, so that is something that can be improved."
"Hazard flow could be improved, the data compliance portion."
"I would like to see an adjustment with more enterprise architecture. You can buy multiple appliances but you can not fully separate different functions, so scaling might be a bit more complicated."
"We would like to have the option of importing assets by using the CSV file. It was available in the earlier versions, but it is not available now."
"It needs more marketing."
"We've had issues managing accounts and access to some data saved on the servers. Accounts are granted a new working certificate daily. We have an account to do it on APIs online and sync it with that. If the path changes at some point or someone changes the password, I don't know if it's from the Active Directory or what."
"The multilanguage functionality does not support the Arabic language, even though this solution is deployed in an Arabic region."
"I would like to see support for RDP over HTTPS so this product can be used in conjunction with the Microsoft terminal."
"Monitoring of the platform should be easier and more functional so that you can have a clear picture of the running service."
"The product uses a lot of resources in current sessions."
