We performed a comparison between CyberArk Identity and LastPass based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, Auth0 and others in Single Sign-On (SSO)."I found the solution to be stable."
"I like the RBAC (Role-Based Access Control). It basically involves defining various roles, and then simply assigning those roles to users."
"The solution helps with auditing, and monitoring, and integrates with Splunk for log analysis. User activity logs are captured in CyberArk Identity and sent to external tools like Splunk for analysis and monitoring."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Identity is the adaptive interface."
"The setup, via cloud, is simple."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"The tool helps with authentication. It acts as an MFA for any kind of privileged access that occurs in our organization."
"If anyone makes an error, or if an incident occurs by accident, the business will not be harmed as a result of this activity."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"Scalability is fine, no issues with that, especially now that they have added different user-level permissions. That has made it a lot easier to delegate out certain features to have other people do."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"Until now, I haven't found anything like the dashboard. It gives you a security score. I find that to be really great. The Sharing Center is really great as well. And the Security Challenge is really great too."
"This product helps keep us secure."
"The most valuable feature for me is being able to pair applications and user permissions."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"The user interface could be improved."
"They could improve their UI and make everything more user-friendly."
"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"In terms of a governance platform, it's worth noting that CyberArk doesn't offer a particularly strong one."
"They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature."
"The tool has issues with the third-party SMS gateway. The solution has its own SMS gateway. Integration support is a challenge when we don’t use their SMS gateway. The tool also needs to improve its scalability."
"We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"Our biggest issue over the years was around the stability of the LDAP sync to AD."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"I also don't like the add-in for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, because when you do the add-in, you can actually save that to your credentials in your IE, and the problem is, if I left my screen open, or any of the IT people leave their screen open someone could come up and access all their credentials in LastPass without having to put a password in within your own network. I don't like that functionality. We've banned that from any of our staff adding that as an add-in because we see that as a security risk."
"The biggest thing is there is no good way to have LastPass rotate passwords without human intervention. Right now, we have to go into each folder, then rotate and manually update each password. It can be done it by loading a bunch of passwords into a spreadsheet, but this makes the whole process insecure because then the passwords have been noted into a spreadsheet which have to be upload. We have to go into 40 to 50 applications and manually update passwords, because we don't view their solution of writing a bunch of passwords on a spreadsheet, then uploading them as a secure solution. This should be done internally within LastPass."
"One thing I wish LastPass had is an integration with Active Directory, not for synchronizing users but to actually manage, in some way, privileged accounts by replacing the password of LastPass itself."
