Hariharan Thangasamy - PeerSpot reviewer
Cybersecurity Delivery Analyst at Accenture
Has strengthened privileged access control and improved audit visibility through session monitoring and password rotation
On the identity product side, it is awesome. However, they can improve in the documentation parts. For example, if there is a migration process, I can see the maximum customers are moving from self-hosted to on-premises or from on-premises to the cloud. It would be helpful if they released a generalized document for processes such as migration. A clear overview document would assist us in understanding more about the tool, configurations, and automations to enhance our security. Regarding the initial setup of CyberArk Identity, I faced some challenges. At some points, I could not find proper documentation for deploying, enhancing, or integrating with other components. I could not find the proper documentation in the community portal.

Developer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Block-based workflows have improved user logins but AuthScript and navigation still need work
I wish Transmit Security had a better scrolling pinpoint feature because sometimes when I scroll through the tree, I can mess up the programming, especially if the elements are inside of a block. Besides the scrolling and pinpointing issues, I think Transmit Security can be improved regarding AuthScript, which is really designed only for Transmit Security and has a lot of potential in loops for looping through arrays or searching through arrays or when I have containers. I only have two methods to search through arrays, which are really confusing and sometimes not the best for the performance of the code. Regarding the needed improvements, I think the documentation is provided alongside the new updates, but it would help if there was a function that allows looping because it does not have a for or while loop and it is really confusing sometimes.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has aided in troubleshooting by allowing logs to be extracted and sent to a correlation engine, such as QRadar, for notifications or alerts."
"Being able to integrate CyberArk Identity with Microsoft Defender is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Identity is the adaptive interface."
"As soon as it is implemented, it fundamentally changes how users access systems, providing immediate security benefits."
"CyberArk Identity is at the top."
"The initial setup of CyberArk Identity was straightforward."
"The setup, via cloud, is simple."
"The best feature of CyberArk Identity is the single sign-on feature that offers quick and one-click access."
"Transmit Security has positively impacted my organization by improving the development of workflows in order to help the user experience."
"Transmit interface is flexible and user-friendly, which is important for our workload. Switching from one authentication code to multiple exposure or two-factor authentication (MFA) is seamless."
 

Cons

"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"In terms of general user feedback, the more security you put in front of a user, the more they complain. So usability and the user experience are always a challenge. So there's always room for improvement."
"It was pretty complex to implement CyberArk Identity. We had some help from a partner, and that helped a lot. But even for the partner, it was really difficult to streamline the process of implementing."
"Something they could improve is the management of multifactor authentication. When you translate the page from one language to another, it can be a difficult process."
"The user interface could be improved."
"Integration or deployment is extremely difficult for CyberArk Identity."
"In terms of a governance platform, it's worth noting that CyberArk doesn't offer a particularly strong one."
"There is room for improvement in documentation. The documentation could be more specific about the changes needed to achieve specific goals."
"The scalability of Transmit Security is a little bit tricky. It is not easy to scale and depends on the complexity of my workflows and how many users I am going to support."
"Pricing is an area where Transmit Security could improve. The pricing needs to be more competitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the tool’s pricing a seven out of ten. The product’s pricing is expensive and is on a yearly basis. You will need to pay around 10,000 GBP for 500 users."
"It's not that affordable compared to Delinea or other products. They're less expensive and allow more customization. For the cost, it is expensive."
"Their pricing is obviously a lot higher than many vendors in the marketplace but their service is also unmatched."
"The pricing of CyberArk Identity is competitive."
"We find that the pricing and licensing of this solution is adequate, as compared to the other competitors in the market."
"There could be some additional costs apart from the licensing costs of the solution when you want to develop connectors in CyberArk Identity."
"CyberArk Identity is an expensive solution."
"In terms of pricing, BeyondTrust and CyberArk tend to be more expensive, with CyberArk receiving an eight out of ten, in this regard."
