Grigoriy Kneller - PeerSpot reviewer
General Manager at HDI Systeme AG
Enhanced user management offering seamless single sign-on, scalability for large enterprises, and improved configurability through integration with various user sources and directories
For organizations using various Atlassian products and dealing with multiple user sources or directories, implementing Atlassian Crowd for single sign-on proves highly beneficial. This is especially true for companies that have instances of Atlassian product installations across different entities, each with its own Active Directory and user directory. Crowd significantly streamlines user and directory management, making it more efficient for larger enterprises. It is particularly advisable and recommended for big companies, especially those that have undergone acquisitions or mergers, as it enhances user management, transparency, and configurability. While it's incredibly useful for enterprise-level businesses, it may also be suitable for mid-sized companies with a substantial user base. Overall, I would rate it nine out of ten.

Auditing enhances privileged account security with a fast deployment
The support for the PAM product is not very prompt. Unlike other Manager products that provide remote assistance or support, for PAM, users have to log a case first and may receive a reply in one or two days. This process is slower compared to other products from the same manufacturer.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features are predominantly in the directory and development spaces."
"One standout feature is the capability to configure various authentication and authorization methods from diverse user directories."

"The auditing feature is particularly valuable as it makes privileged account usage auditable."
"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."

"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
 

Cons

"It makes you more efficient, but you have to optimize what you're doing before you get into the software."
"It would be great if the UI would receive a complete re-design."
"Exporting users/group toward LDAP and retrieving LDAP attributes like photo profile."
"There's a need for effective group membership management, especially for corporate programs."
"Sometimes the person who doesn't actually use those passwords becomes responsible for the password."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
"The user interface could be improved and made more user friendly."
"The product could be improved by lowering the price - it's expensive."

"The product couldn’t make any notable change in our system, because of the complexity of cycle of the system."

"There is room for improvement in making the UI more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's pretty cheap. I would rate the price as three out of five."

"On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate the pricing of this solution as a five."
