Strong security with room for enhancements in AI analytics
We integrate with our Active Directory regarding the role-based access controls in BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access.I have not yet utilized the endpoint least privilege management feature in BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access. There is a ready integration guide available for BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access, so there are no major issues. All API integration is available to integrate with. More organizations are moving towards cloud infrastructure with BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access. They are choosing this because they do not want to manage their on-premises and other hardware infrastructure. As we are not working with other vendors, I would rate BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access a 10 out of 10.

Centralized access has strengthened secure troubleshooting and daily operations in restricted environments
Teleport offers excellent proxying capabilities, where you add Teleport SSH proxy, as well as strong support for web applications. Since we are tunneling into a restricted environment, Teleport serves as the one essential point of access, and it is highly secure due to our utilization of Okta and VPN for entering the environment. We use Teleport every day because the environment is restricted, and Teleport is the necessary access point. We are the sole team responsible for the production environment, which is a requirement from our sponsors. It does not take much to maintain it since the maintenance team handles it regularly, ensuring updates occur without disrupting progress. We, as the SRE team, coordinate to ensure Teleport remains operational so that we can troubleshoot and access systems.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a stable product. Based on the demos and interaction with it, it was stable."
"The secure access must be audited live, ensuring patient data protection."
"One of the features that I really like about it is the ability to set a start date, time, and end date for the access. For example, you can set the access for a person from tomorrow, Monday, or Tuesday and ending on a specific period of the day or a specific date. That's really quite helpful."
"More organizations are moving towards cloud infrastructure with BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access."
"I like all of it. You can access computers that are on a DMZ. You can access computers that are off the network and on the network. You pretty much have access to computers wherever they are. As long as they have the client on them, you can get to them. So, it is convenient, but its main feature is that you can use your smart card to elevate your privileges remotely. That's a great feature."
"We can truly elevate our admin rights while we're in there to fully take control of a system and manage it as if it was sitting right here on our desk. Most of the organization has gone to remote work or work from home. With that being the case, this solution allows us to be able to still work with our end-users, even though they're not always sitting on our network."
"Its initial setup process is straightforward."
"PRA stands on its own as a full solution. This is important because it reduces the need to maintain a lot of different services. Also, the integration between those services are sometimes not easy to maintain. So, having a solution like BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access reducing our workload gives us enough time to work on our other issues. The system just runs and does what it is supposed to do."
"I would definitely advise others looking into using Teleport to try it out if they are seeking a tunneling or proxying solution to streamline obtaining access without dealing with DNS or SSH, as it is straightforward to install, can be tested in various environments, and is a truly exceptional product that is easy to use."
"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."
"The best features include its main capabilities such as collecting actions and showing others what you did on the server, an easy way to connect to any bare-metal servers, and the ability to describe which servers you can use and who can connect to these servers."
"Teleport has helped us minimize incidents and maintain our uplinking time and uptime, and our organization's uptime is 99.90%, which is almost 100%."
"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."
 

Cons

"The integration of the solution with many platforms is a difficult area to manage and needs to be made easy."
"There is no connectivity to the appliance side. There is no API, and it is just difficult for me to capture what version the device is on without going in and doing screenshots. It is a little too secure in that regard, where they don't even trust their product owner. Since a lot of hacks come from the inside, they are probably doing what they need to do out of necessity. It is just that I have to work pretty hard to produce compliance data on the box."
"Customer support used to be faster with chat options available. However, support now requires opening a ServiceNow ticket, which can be time-consuming."
"The price is pretty expensive."
"One of our gaps or pain points is having multi-factor authentication at the endpoint and using the PRA password injection from BeyondTrust, which does not work in our environment. We can only have MFA at the login of BeyondTrust to check out the password. Therefore, we can't meet our security requirements of having it on the endpoint."
"They could probably integrate a wizard or something like that to add a new use case. It could be something that makes it easier to add a new use case."
"Some of the capabilities in the solution were not as available or not as outstanding as CyberArk. We had to manage whatever little was available for us, especially its recording capabilities, logs, and a number of things."
"With the current scenario of BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access, some analytics should come with an AI/ML base and highlight if someone is doing something risky during access."
"Teleport is simple to use, but sometimes it requires extra research for more unique tasks, which slightly detracts from its overall quality."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"Managing 700 to 800 services is not easy."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"I think it should have less complexity to set up on self-hosted because it is still a difficult process and I spend a lot of time using it on self-host."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's pricing a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is high, and ten is low. It is an expensive product."
"PRA was one of the cheapest solutions that we evaluated."
"I wish it was a little bit cheaper, but when a product is as solid as this, I understand what the cost does. It helps them to make sure it stays that way. If you want a reliable, solid product, you're going to pay more."
"Though the solution was a bit expensive, the overall pricing was average."
"My client found the solution a bit expensive but considering their use case and requirements, they didn't have any other choice. As far as I know, implementation and licensing are the only costs."
"Its price is pretty good for the features and services that it provides. It is not outrageous. I'm not aware of any additional charges or anything like that."
"PRA's pricing is competitive."
"The price is pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for and this is a great product."
