"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"It has machine learning and can help clients to learn the environment and understand what is happening."
"If anyone makes an error, or if an incident occurs by accident, the business will not be harmed as a result of this activity."
"The integration capabilities, ability to integrate CyberArk into the overall IBB strategy of our current clients."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Identity is the adaptive interface."
"The initial setup of CyberArk Identity was straightforward."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It takes me up to an hour and a half."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"It's improved security; we don't have to worry about people storing password loosely and secure them."
"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."
"The most valuable feature for me is being able to pair applications and user permissions."
"It is easy to use."
"The OpenID features could improve in CyberArk Identity."
"We would like to see an improvement in the ability to manage mobile devices."
"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."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"CyberArk Identity's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"They can include the Mobile Device Management (MDM) feature."
"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"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."
"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 management through the plugin is poor. It consumes tons of client resources especially as an administrator."
"I struggle a little bit with the mobile app. As a browser extension, it works really well, and we are able to get to what we need to. However, on the phone, it's not quite as easy to navigate."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"The ability to set up an account expiration limit/date would be very useful."
"Right now we have two products; there is the password manager and there is the authenticator app. Ideally, these should be fully integrated and support better handling of two-factor authentication or any other authenticator data."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"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."
