Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
7.0
BeyondTrust Password Safe enhances compliance and security, offering rapid returns, cost-efficiency, automation, and easy privileged account management.
Sentiment score
2.1
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro improved security, productivity, and cost-efficiency by automating password tasks and centralizing access management.
Next year, we may add another BeyondTrust element because the overall experience has been good.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.9
BeyondTrust Password Safe support is praised for responsiveness and expertise, but documentation and complex issue resolution need improvement.
Sentiment score
7.0
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro's support is responsive with knowledgeable staff, but PAM cases may experience delays.
One person gets aligned for troubleshooting and maintenance activities during their downtime, and within an hour, they complete these tasks.
The tickets for minor issues have been resolved efficiently.
I rate technical support from BeyondTrust at around eight or nine because it is very good and helpful.
The support for PAM is not very prompt as it requires logging a case first and responses can take a day or two.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
BeyondTrust Password Safe is scalable, integrates with systems, and supports diverse environments for both small businesses and enterprises.
Sentiment score
6.7
Users report varied experiences with ManageEngine Password Manager Pro's scalability, noting both challenges and effective use in expanding data centers.
BeyondTrust Password Safe is scalable and stable from my perspective, as if you increase your CPU and RAM, you can use as many user licenses as you want on a single platform.
If using the built-in database, it requires good knowledge in Microsoft SQL, which could complicate scalability.
In my experience, the scalability of BeyondTrust Password Safe is also a nine.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
BeyondTrust Password Safe is mostly stable and intuitive, though some experience occasional crashes and require substantial management efforts.
Sentiment score
8.9
Users find ManageEngine Password Manager Pro stable, reliable, easy to recover, and praise its performance and dependability.
The solution is very stable.
 

Room For Improvement

BeyondTrust Password Safe needs better documentation, support, integration, UI updates, and optimized pricing for enhanced user satisfaction.
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro needs user interface improvements and affordable pricing, catering mainly to tech-savvy users with limited support.
This would help in identifying suspicious activities immediately when users log in.
SaaS-based applications and other things should be included, along with their password management options for web applications.
There are limitations when accessing or creating connectors for each application.
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.
 

Setup Cost

BeyondTrust Password Safe provides cost-effective subscription licensing based on managed assets, offering flexibility and affordability without hidden fees.
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro is cost-effective for enterprises, with a 25,000 rands fee, compared favorably to competitors.
Pricing is managed by a different team, however, I know it's less expensive than CyberArk Privilege Access.
The pricing model is more affordable with the option of going for either unlimited devices or users.
My experience with the pricing, setup cost, and licensing of BeyondTrust Password Safe is good because we have an asset-based license, not a user-based one, allowing us to add many clients with privilege access.
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro is cheaper than other products, such as BeyondTrust, and is more than 50% cheaper compared to the Boomer solution we used before.
 

Valuable Features

BeyondTrust Password Safe provides session recording, password rotation, intuitive interface, streamlined management, and essential reporting for secure account oversight.
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro provides secure, user-friendly password management with strong features, direct machine login, and auditing capabilities.
The flexibility of the licensing model is significantly better as it offers both unlimited users and unlimited devices, unlike Delinea, which is based on the number of users.
The most effective features of BeyondTrust Password Safe are password management and session recording.
It is important for our organization that BeyondTrust Password Safe supports both on-premises and cloud deployment.
The auditing feature is particularly valuable as it makes privileged account usage auditable.

Smart tooling streamlines account organization and access through advanced grouping features
The features I find valuable in Password Safe include password retention and management, session privilege monitoring, live monitoring and recording, and the use of PS automation scripts for creating connections. The smart tooling and smart group features are also important as, after finalizing discovery, they auto-collect accounts in the environment and organize them in Smart Groups for easy access.
