I've worked in BeyondTrust, also. They have Asian-based solutions, and it's not as heavy as CyberArk.

Since I have been working with CyberArk for some time, I feel a little bit more comfortable with CyberArk. BeyondTrust is also not that bad. However, they did not have all the capabilities that CyberArk was offering at that time. That said, this was maybe four or five years ago. I haven't explored anything after that. I'm sure a lot of things have changed.

There used to be IBM Privilege Identity Manager as well, but it's not there anymore. 

Saviynt has its own solution as well.

Basically, there are multiple solutions there, however, CyberArk was definitely been our choice for Privilege Identity Manager.

We did not use a different solution.

We did not use any other solution. 

CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is the best solution. However, One Identity Safeguard is trying as a solution, and it has special features which make it almost equal to CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager. Still, CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is the best.

CyberArk has been in the market for a long time and keeps improving. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has a hundred percent effectiveness against ransomware, which you can't get anywhere. The CyberArk team researched and knows the angle, the flaws, and the central point of attack. An attacker usually infiltrates or compromises your system by elevating the credentials or permissions and then leveraging that elevation to compromise the system. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager removes User Access Control on the endpoint, so it takes away the attacker's means to elevate permissions, so CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is simply the best.

I did not previously use a different solution. 

I work with the competitor of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, Beyond Trust. If I was to change something it wouldn't be CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, it would just be Beyond Trust. There's a reason why there are features in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, it works in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager. The same goes with Beyond Trust, there are features that only work in Beyond Trust and wouldn't work in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager. For example, the introduction of smart rules, wouldn't make sense because CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager,  doesn't work with smart rules.

I've used Arcon User Behavior Analytics. And with endpoint security, we have used ManageEngine Endpoint Security. CyberArk's advantage over its competitors is its granular access. You can give specific access.

However, we work with all the solutions and provide one or the other based on what the customer requires. We will make a POC accordingly.

We've also used BeyondTrust EPM. They are very similar. 

We did not have a previous solution. However, we knew that there is a large attack surface in the event that we were to be compromised or fished. We knew that there was a vulnerability and we said, "Okay, we want to get it in front of this so we're not Equifax or CapitalOne or something like that."

I have used ARCON before. It is not as user-friendly compared to CyberArk. CyberArk has got more visibility compared to ARCON. 

No, beyond evaluating other solutions we did not use a different one.
