Improved security measures with some support response delays
For BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, the best features are the security measures we have, such as not sharing any credentials with employees in the bank sector. For security purposes in BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management, when employees are working in the system, we can make a recording of the video, showing the modifications and configurations they made, allowing us to see everything. The recording option is available. BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management positively impacts the organization by providing more security and benefits, such as ensuring that if modifications are made, we can see where mistakes occurred in the recording video. The recording video in BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management allows us to see modifications and mistakes, which is an advantage.

There are some areas for improvement in the Fudo PAM cake that we want to improve in terms of scaling. Scaling is an optional feature because we closed some big projects with enterprise customers from different countries, including Ukraine, Kaloxetine, Uzbekistan, and others. We closed projects in different areas with customers of different sizes. When we talk about enterprise customers, we should consider that they have different use cases and desires for Fudo PAM. We compared our options for customers to choose their vendors, and we discovered Fudo PAM has few scaling options. In Fudo PAM, there should be additional features for scaling and organizing remote sessions for remote systems in remote networks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find the comprehensive Privilege Access Management features valuable, including automation, and the ability to integrate with applications and the Windows operating system."
"AI adds value by automating the onboarding of assets and using smart rules to assign privileges."
"PowerBroker allows elevation of required actions or application and eliminates the need of user having full administrative access."
"I would say session management on the go is the most valuable feature. When the session is going on, you can stop the session without terminating it for justification. You can cancel it. The recording takes very little space. Those are some things which the customers are worried about when they talk about session recording."
"I find the solution’s features like section management, password management, and analytics valuable."
"It has some features that other products don't have yet, differentiation that sets it apart in the marketplace... Those features are a centralized dashboard and the ability to issue and revoke entitlements within minutes. That makes a difference."
"The implementation is quite easy because the documents are always online."
"I can take a customer that is non-compliant with 27001, an organization that failed their registrar audit, and get them to compliance with this product fairly quickly; in half a year."
"Right now we are encouraging our customers to use Fudo PAM because it is the only product in PAM technology that we have to offer them."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"This is a solution that I recommend because it is a simple privileged access management system that is done very well."
"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
"I think that Fudo Privileged Access Management is a very good program."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
 

Cons

"It should support XWindows Remote Desktop Access protocol for Linux/Unix."
"We faced some challenges with remote desktop sessions."
"The weaknesses are related to the effort required to migrate from existing technologies or having no Privilege Access Management (PAM) at all to adopting technologies like BeyondTrust. It involves changes in processes and can take a significant amount of time, typically six to twelve months."
"If they improve their price in Bangladesh, since they do not have local partners or local trainers, clients or integrators find it difficult to reach BeyondTrust for support, service, and price quotation."
"We use a program to automate all of this, but it's not a default feature of BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management."
"Technical support for BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management should be an enterprise edition; whoever is working in the bank sector for security purposes needs to be 100% secure on the servers."
"The software sometimes uses a lot of memory."
"The product should improve its price."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"The configuration is difficult."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
"The stability is not very good."
"To tell you the truth, I find that Fudo is not very stable and we had some issues during the implementation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"The product’s licensing is different for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool’s licensing is yearly."
"Its pricing and licensing are okay. We were in the perpetual model when it was on-prem, and now, with the SaaS service, we have a subscription model. As a customer, I would always like to see a lower price, but it seems to be priced at the right model currently, and we are trying to get the maximum benefits out of it."
"The solution's pricing is high."
"It is relatively more cost-effective compared to the competing product."
"It was very expensive."
"What BeyondTrust was providing was user-based licensing which was a great benefit from the client point of view. Recently, I don't know why, the licensing model has been changed, and that is the reason that they have lost a bit of their edge when it comes to the PAM, against our competition. The asset-based licensing, from the user's point of view, is not beneficial. The licensing should be based on the users. The greater the number of users, the greater will be the load and the greater the scalability problems. I presume that is why the licensing model has changed."
"PowerBroker for a Mac client is three times the price of the Windows version."
"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."
