Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, F5, Apache and others in Application Infrastructure."The solution offers high performance."
"The role and attribute-based access control has been greatly improved."
"The most valuable feature is its knowledge."
"DirX Directory is the best feature of the product: a very fast, stable LDAP directory."
"It gives us the capability to rotate passwords."
"It has helped us with our adoption with other teams, and it has also helped us to integrate it at the ground level."
"When we started with RPA, there was a requirement that every credential and the bots themselves be protected through the PAM system. From the get-go, we've had CyberArk in the middle... We've got a pretty robust RPA implementation with our PAM platform. Users, bots, the credentials — everything is managed via our PAM solution."
"It has the ability to scale out. We have scaled out quite a bit with our product and use of it to get to multiple locations and businesses, so it has the breadth to do that."
"The combination of CPM and PSM resolves a lot of use cases."
"Technical support has been very responsive in navigating challenges. It is very easy to open a ticket."
"It is a central repository. Therefore, if someone needs to access a server, then they go through CyberArk PAM. It provides a secure way to do this and CyberArk PAM records everything. For example, if you are connecting to a Linux server, then once you get into the Linux server and if it is integrated with CyberArk, it will automatically start recording everything that is being done. In most banks, seeing the recordings is very useful. If there are any gaps or something has happened which shouldn't have happened, then we can check the logs and videos. So, it gives security, in a robust manner, to the organization."
"All access to our servers by both staff and vendors is monitored and recorded."
"Needs more available consultants and implementation partners."
"The Self-Service Portal is old school and it lacks easy accessibility for users."
"An overall modernization of the product is required in order to keep up with newer products."
"The user interface could be more convenient for people that don't know the tool too intensively."
"The price could be better. It would be better if they developed a better endpoint solution in the next release."
"The product could be easier to use. More work needs to be done on this aspect; it is not good enough yet. It also takes up a lot of server space. Sometimes we need to use up to seven servers."
"It should be easier to install. It is a comprehensive product, which makes it difficult to install. You need to have their consulting services in order to get it all installed and set up correctly because there is so much going on. It would be nice if there were an easier way to do the installation without professional services. I suspect they get a fair amount of their money from professional services. So, there is not a huge incentive."
"There should be more models and licensing plans for this software."
"Report creation could be improved. The policies could be more customized."
"Integration with the ticketing system should allow any number of fields to be used for validation before allowing a user to be evaluated and able to access a server."
"The support services could act faster when people reach out to resolve issues."
"I would like to see is the policy export and import. When we expend, we do not want to just hand do a policy."
"I'd like to see a more expansive SSH tunneling situation through PSMP. Right now you have an account that exists in the vault and you say, "I want to create a tunnel using this account." I'd like to see something that is not account-based where I could say, "I want to create a tunnel to this machine over here," and then authenticate through the PSMP and then your tunnel is set up. You wouldn't need to then authenticate to a machine."
