Cons
"The solution's difficulty in gaining skill sets should be improved because it's a vertical product.""The product needs to leverage the cloud more, especially in the financial sector, where cloud adoption might be limited. Proper reporting within the cloud is essential. The tool should be more user-friendly to expedite access for users. The current agent-based system poses challenges if a user loses access to the server, making tasks difficult to perform. It should also improve technical support.""There is room for improvement in documentation. The documentation could be more specific about the changes needed to achieve specific goals.""In terms of a governance platform, it's worth noting that CyberArk doesn't offer a particularly strong one.""CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement.""I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform.""In terms of general user feedback, the more security you put in front of a user, the more they complain. So usability and the user experience are always a challenge. So there's always room for improvement.""We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."

"It would be better if we could also manage other systems with it. Currently, you have to purchase plugins for it to work with other non-SAP systems. It would be good if there is an easy way to integrate SAP Access Control with other non-SAP systems."
