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."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 user interface, overall, is really good. If I have some 20 servers in my ID, I can easily see for which servers I have read-only access, for which servers I have prompt-access, and for which servers I have server admin access."
"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."
"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."
"With this log available, we can drill down to the activities performed by the people within our kiosk. There is a great feature where in the case of Unix servers, we have our own text-based logs. In the case of Window's server, we cannot create a text-based log, so our kiosk takes the screenshot or picture of the screen when I am working. It does this every three seconds."
"The deployment process for the solution was easy...The solution's technical support team was good."
"Video and audio logs are there for any activities that the privileged admin carries out."
"I like that One Identity Safeguard lets you configure the maximum number of connections to the target, a configuration I didn't find in its competitor."
"We use the solution’s “transparent mode” feature for privileged sessions. It is very easy because it is only a simple configuration for our users. We don't have to modify our network. We install it, configure it, and it works. So, it is super easy. The rollout for our users is seamless."
"The monitoring system is very good."
"Safeguard has the ability to record and retrieve in the full-video format."
"It offers high availability and enables end users to deploy the solution with 99.999 percent uptime, which is crucial in an enterprise environment with a large number of endpoints."
"The most unique and valuable features are the upstream and downstream throughput capacities; the Safeguard platform provides agile integration. In actuality, all the features are valuable. They're good, user-friendly."
"Being able to use a proxy server is an advantage."
"The technical support is tremendous."
"It should support the SQL Always On platform with FQDN name instead of IP."
"One thing which needs improvement is where it is keeping video logs of Windows Servers, whatever activities are being carried out by the administrator. Because Windows logs are a video, they are unsearchable, so if you need to search for a specific administrator and what he has done on a server, right now you need to go through different video logs of that particular timeframe. I think they are coming up with an additional feature where in it can be indexed and can be searchable."
"I would like for it to be dependent on Windows as opposed to Linux."
"If an ID gets locked, the tool cannot unlock it, making it an area where improvements are required."
"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..."
"Sometimes it gets stuck between servers and I would like to see this improved in the future."
"Hazard flow could be improved, the data compliance portion."
"The deployment process is a bit complex because no document is available."
"One Identity Safeguard can improve by having more integration with multiple devices."
"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."
"Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced."
"We would like to be able to generate certificate signing requests (CSRs) from the interface for certificates."
"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."
"The multilanguage functionality does not support the Arabic language, even though this solution is deployed in an Arabic region."
"We have feature requests and would like to see the turnaround times on those features to be faster."
"We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS."
