Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The reporting is excellent.""The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets.""Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management.""There are benefits in the security realm. We use Delinea at an enterprise level. I imagine there are productivity gains, but moreover, it's the security. We don’t enable staff to see the passwords of boxes but it's all being tracked and logged now.""The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports.""The privileged account management feature is what I like most.""This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy.""The solution is flexible."

"The live recording is a very useful feature.""Stability-wise, I think it is a very good solution.""What I like best about IBM Security Secret Server is its single-access console. It's also easy to manage and fulfills the requirements with the least resistance.""One of the most valuable features is scalability, and how it allows you to scale it without affecting the underlying core components.""As a PAM solution, Secret Server performs all the use cases in our environment."

Cons
"This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak.""The initial setup is a bit complex.""I would like for there to be a suitable solution to deploy a low-spec version for desktop password management to all our staff.""The integration with sync could be improved.""There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration.""Enhancing the solution by incorporating additional features to make it comprehensive would be beneficial. It would be more convenient to have a complete package solution that consolidates all the features in one place, making it easier to manage. Currently, I am required to access two separate servers for reports, which could be avoided if all the necessary features were available in a single location. This would be highly advantageous for managing everything effectively.""With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly.""Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly."

More Delinea Privileged Access Service Cons →

"Secret Server should have the ability to discover privileged accounts in the servers, like the administrator or users, from SQL and Oracle without having to import a script.""The newer interface is more difficult to use than the previous one, and consequently, new users might need more training.""It would be preferable if the full proxy was included in the IBM Security Secret Server.""The nonclustered index is working in an area with a problem that needs improvement.""What needs improvement in IBM Security Secret Server is support. The local partner provides good support, but IBM itself doesn't. Most of the time, the IBM support team does not aggressively resolve issues reported through chat or the IBM website."

    Overview

    Delinea Privilege Service provides all of your IT administration teams with secure, granular access to infrastructure regardless of location, and without the hassles of a VPN.
    Secure browser-based access Authorized IT users launch management sessions for resources directly from the Privilege Service portal. Sessions use SSH and RDP protocols, and are always protected end-to-end.

    Access across organizational boundaries Privilege Service enables you to authenticate your IT users through Active Directory, LDAP Cloud Directory, or Google G Suite
    Directory. You can use one or any combination of these identity stores to grant granular access to employees, business partners and outside vendors.

    Grant access to specific resources Unlike a VPN, Privilege Service enables you to grant access to
    resources on a on a per-resource basis. This means that you can easily give your internal IT admins access to as much of your infrastructure as necessary, while limiting access by an outsourced
    team to only the servers and network hardware their business role or IT function requires.

    Access from any location Your IT admins can log in and securely access resources from any location that can reach the Privilege Service. For user logins outside the corporate network, you can require Delinea's built-in multi-factor authentication for security stronger than a user name and password.

    IBM Security Secret Server protects privileged accounts from hackers and insider threats, helps ensure compliance with evolving regulations, and allows authorized employees to seamlessly gain access to the tools and information they need to drive productivity. Easily detect, manage and audit privileged accounts, and control which applications are permitted to run on endpoints and servers to prevent malicious applications from penetrating the environment. IBM Security Secret Server is fast to deploy, easy to use and scalable for the enterprise.
