Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One important feature is the administrator access, mainly for Windows machines as well as Linux machines. It is important for us because there is accountability associated with each user ID. And the recordings are also helpful.""Technical support is good. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.""It was very easy for us to move this application and database from on-premise to cloud, as well as configure new things, such as load balancing. The product is very compatible.""For compliance, each change I do, in each of the servers, is clearly recorded. We recently faced an audit and this was an awesome feature. Even our auditor had praise for it saying, "This is really a good feature."""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.""100% compliant and you don't have to maintain ID management for each and every user.""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.""The video logs help us to identify any misuse of privileged accounts."

"Its flexibility is the most valuable feature, the way we can customize the user interface and the workflow processes.""The most valuable feature of One Identity Manager is it simplifies user-account provisioning and administration. One Identity offers a comprehensive range of solutions that cater to almost every aspect of the identity and access management domain.""The connection with multiple systems is what makes it flexible. We can create the accounts flexibly, enabling access to other systems. In addition to Active Directory, it can extend to SAP, to Salesforce, to Office 365, etc.""The best part of One Identity Manager is that it provides wholesome features. Most of the things required for identity management are given out of the box in One Identity Manager. You can just define your use cases, take this tool, and right away implement the solution.""One Identity Manager is flexible and offers numerous connectors that enable us to serve as the core component of the system, as well as to construct our own connectors using the API.""The solution is flexible. You can customize it a lot. You can can build connectors, connecting them to a new application, and so on.""It gives the best user experience, enabling us an overview of all user entitlements.""One of the valuable features is that it is relatively organized. I definitely appreciate that aspect. It is also relatively simple to use with a very easy flow to the GUI. The user interface is really top-notch."

Cons
"If an ID gets locked, the tool cannot unlock it, making it an area where improvements are required.""Currently, we can manage only the SSH or RDP connections, but there are many more devices that are present, apart from our SSH and RDP. We want all this to be part of the ARCON solution. For the password management, they should increase the pool of supported devices, they should have more connectors.""Managing users is difficult, so that is something that can be improved.""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.""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.""One common problem I faced with ARCON PAM was compatibility issues with certain software versions.""ARCON Privileged Access Management is not a user-friendly solution, and the application flow from one screen to another is very complex.""Hazard flow could be improved, the data compliance portion."

More ARCON Privileged Access Management Cons →

"One Identity Manager needs to come up with many more out-of-the-box connectors, similar to Workday and ServiceNow.""The customization process should be simplified.""One Identity has a self-service portal but many customers need a helpdesk where they can go in and request. To make that happen we need to do a lot of customization. Maybe that could be improved...""Their technical support's attitude is a bit strange. Quite often, we have to prove that there is a problem with the product rather than having them prove that there is not a problem with the product.""There are too many different user interfaces. For example, one is the designer and another is the manager. There's also a web interface and an object browser. It would be helpful to consolidate all of those into a single administrator portal.""The performance could use improvement. Sometimes synchronizations take too long.""Quest Software should provide notes and documents to customers before they buy the product and license.""They could make the product more user-friendly. It takes a lot of work to build technical and business cases with the product. The solution is more complex than you think to use."
