We performed a comparison between ARCON Privileged Access Management and BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management 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 most valuable feature is it is easy to use and the interface is intuitive."
"It is recording video records for Windows and command-line reports for others, Linux and AIX, of whatever activities being carries by that particular administrator."
"Session recording is the most valuable feature, as it covers compliance and it also covers our in-house applications."
"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."
"We use ARCON Privileged Access Management to monitor and record our admin users' activity."
"Technical support is good. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten."
"That dashboard is okay."
"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 is straightforward. It is a good technology, and it is made to do one single thing."
"The tool is easy to use and deploy. It has PAM capabilities like privilege access. The solution helps with the management of third parties and vendors. It is an effective solution compared to other alternatives."
"The privileged access and the application control are helpful in making sure we have good, robust challenge responses. Blacklisting with trusted application protection is also beneficial for us."
"It has some features that other products don't have yet, differentiation that sets it apart in the marketplace... Those features are a centralized dashboard and the ability to issue and revoke entitlements within minutes. That makes a difference."
"I find the solution’s features like section management, password management, and analytics valuable."
"One of the valuable features is the absence of any local user in a unique system. All users are defined in the AD; communication is only between Unix and AD."
"Technical support is good."
"Reduces major vulnerabilities by removing local administrator privileges."
"The usability should be expanded to other browsers like Chrome and Firefox."
"One common problem I faced with ARCON PAM was compatibility issues with certain software versions."
"I would like to see a "wild card" kind of a feature or something that would enable us to search the video."
"Sometimes it gets stuck between servers and I would like to see this improved in the future."
"I would like for it to be dependent on Windows as opposed to Linux."
"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."
"There are no APIs readily available... I'm working on automation for ARCON so that whatever the ARCON administrator is doing will be automated, rather than having to do it manually. For that, I had to spend months to get the API developed myself. Having that handy out of the box, that would really help..."
"A few areas for improvement in ARCON would be performance optimization, ensuring smoother management."
"If you don't get the implementation right at the outset, you will struggle with the product."
"Reporting analytics is one of the areas that can be improved. It is a new cloud-based solution. So, many more specific reports can come out natively. Currently, we get all the events, and we put them in plug-ins. From there, we generate our own design of reports. If there is a much more solid or robust reporting analytics framework within the product itself, it would be helpful."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"The deployment process should be clarified or made simpler. It would be helpful if the solution had in-app tutorials for users to look at as they progress through the system. Sometimes we get lost and need to go back to check what exactly the function was. There should be small hints around major key functions. It would go a long way in speeding up the deployment process."
"Reports to the end user."
"Its feature for establishing workflows needs improvement."
"The weaknesses are related to the effort required to migrate from existing technologies or having no Privilege Access Management (PAM) at all to adopting technologies like BeyondTrust. It involves changes in processes and can take a significant amount of time, typically six to twelve months."
"We use a program to automate all of this, but it's not a default feature of BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management."
