We performed a comparison between BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management and CrowdStrike Falcon based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about CyberArk, Delinea, BeyondTrust and others in Privileged Access Management (PAM)."The most valuable feature is the asset discovery, which makes it very easy to locate and identify assets and pull them into the manager."
"The privileged access management into sensitive systems is very valuable. That includes control from the endpoint all the way through to the managing of passwords and credentials that are used by the person to access the sensitive information. It's very useful, because nobody ever really maintains passwords for those endpoint systems. It's maintained in the Dropbox password file."
"I find the comprehensive Privilege Access Management features valuable, including automation, and the ability to integrate with applications and the Windows operating system."
"BeyondTrust has very good integrations with quite a lot of security vendors such as SailPoint, IBM, FortiGuard, Splunk, etc."
"The features related to application elevate is amazing. It helped the company to remove almost all admin local users."
"What I liked about this solution is that it can also integrate for tracking malicious use or sending analytics to a host that can process them. I don't know if CyberArk, Centrify, or Thycotic can do that. The analytics was something the client really wanted, and they already had BeyondTrust. It is very scalable. The agent on the workstation is very thin, and the processing power required on a server is nothing out of the ordinary. It is also very stable and easy to deploy."
"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."
"The asset discovery feature is the solution's most valuable aspect. It's very easy to pull assets into the database of the solution manager."
"Because it is security product and acts like an AIML smart product, not merely based on daily/weekly updates and signatures."
"Scalability hasn't been an issue for us."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers a comprehensive dashboard that is highly effective in protecting against and blocking external infiltration attempts."
"The most valuable features are the complete IPS and IDS."
"One of the most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon is when there are upgrades there are no additional fees."
"Falcon's best feature is its detection and blocking of threats."
"The EDR is amazing and ease of integration with Splunk is a big plus. Integration with BigQuery is also a plus for me and workflow creation is easy. Overall, CrowdStrike Falcon is a great product."
"The UI is simple and self-explanatory. Everything is easy to understand."
"What's bothering me, which is true of all of them, is that sometimes, the error codes that come up don't necessarily get reflected in the searches within their support sites or they're out of date. I would rather search by an error code than type in the text and search for it by text because the error code means that it is programmatic, and it is known. It might not be desired, but it at least is not unexpected. If you don't have an error code, you just get an anomalous error, and if it is lengthy, it can be difficult to search and find the specific instance you're looking for. This is something I would like all of them to improve. BeyondTrust, CyberArk, Centrify, and Thycotic could do some improvements in staying up to date and actually allowing you to search based on the product version. They are assuming that everybody is on their way to release. They put out a new release, but it is not reflected on the support site, which makes no sense to me, especially when they revamp all the error codes. They all have been guilty of this in some way."
"They need to come up with better integrative options which should be customer-centric."
"If you don't get the implementation right at the outset, you will struggle with the product."
"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."
"A valuable enhancement could be the capability to deploy agents directly through the console."
"The program updates are very rare and the frequency is too far apart to take care of bug fixes and adding the latest features."
"The product should improve its price."
"It only has limited support for Mac."
"The malware analysis could be improved, as that's what we use the solution for the most and that change would make it a better EDR tool."
"The biggest issue with Falcon as a standalone product is it doesn't have very much reporting."
"CrowdStrike Suites and the way that it bundles things can be a bit challenging. It should be easier to integrate with the other stuff that they sell or be included with what they sell. We have one piece, then they are talking about another piece on vulnerability management all of the sudden, and we don't own that piece. We can see it in the console, but nothing shows up. It simply appears within the tool as an option, but we can't use it without purchasing it."
"I have worked with their technical support on several problems that were never fully resolved."
"The ability to receive text alerts natively in the console would be kind of cool."
"I would like to see a more accurate integration and an option to check the local machine."
"The GUI can use improvement, it's cloud-based so sometimes the interface can be a bit slow. The interface could use a little bit more speed."
"The console is a little cluttered and at times, finding what you're looking for is not intuitive."
