Secures critical infrastructures with essential user session audit records
A potential area for improvement is enhancing support for cluster environments and distributed Vaults. Clients in multiple countries that need central access have different challenges that require better solutions from CyberArk. For financial services, CyberArk can improve incident response by ensuring fast support for critical priority tickets to meet compliance requirements. Providing more documentation on CyberArk is recommended for new team members to enhance their troubleshooting capabilities. I understand it's up to the client, but 99% fail to change the demo key, so it's crucial for CyberArk to emphasize changing the key and documenting it as part of the installation process.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The audit capabilities include video so that not only keystrokes but also mouse clicks are captured, providing safety and reassurance for anyone working in our infrastructure."
"CyberArk has the ability to change the credentials on every platform."
"The most beneficial feature in CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is its simple user interface."
"It is a single tool that isolates possible kinds of malware. You get lateral movement blocking and auditing information, e.g., you know who is doing what. You are getting protections from the service as well as a useful environment. All your admins can easily go in and out of your company while accessing your servers in a secure way, even if they are working abroad."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault are password vaulting and automatic rotation of passwords after use."
"Overall, as a partner in our digital transformation, CyberArk has been great."
"The impact of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager on customer operational efficiency is quite positive."
"All features of the CyberArk PAS solution are valuable."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members, and the auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"The solution is easy to use, the performance has been good, the integration capabilities have been good, and it is very stable and quite secure."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature. It works really well. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members. The auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature; it works really well, and the ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
 

Cons

"The implementation and integration process is very, very complex."
"The authentication port is available in CyberArk Alero but not Fortinet products."
"CyberArk's license is too expensive. I rate it seven out of 10 for affordability."
"The initial setup was a bit complex."
"I would love them to improve their UI customizing features."
"More than the product itself, there is room for improvement in the documentation. The documentation should be very detailed and very structured. It has a lot of good information, on one level, but I feel that it could be more elaborate and more structured."
"I would like to see better automation in granting access, better tools, more efficient tools, to be able to customize the solution that CyberArk provides."
"Our DevOps team is looking in the direction of cloud, because we are not in it today. We are hoping to build it with Conjur from the ground up."
"There should also be an easier way to be able to transfer user data to other users who have kind of left the company. It could be a little bit cheaper."
"The integration with the VPN feature could be smoother."
"It would be nice to have the solution localized in Europe. Dashlane is an American company. It's controlled by American laws and regulations that allows the American government to have full access to my data with Dashlane. That's why I am leaving Dashlane, because we can't accept such an important function in American control."
"The cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s pricing is feasible for enterprise customers. The pricing is expensive for smaller businesses. You need to pay additional costs for service implementation and local support."
"I believe that this solution is priced well. It's the market leader and I think that it's the best solution."
"It is in line with its competitors, but all such solutions cost too much money."
"I have heard from my leaders that CyberArk is costlier in terms of licensing. The support and maintenance are also costly. We use their premium support, but for the price we pay, we do not get the value."
"Although CyberArk Privileged Access Management is expensive, its protection capabilities outweigh the cost."
"CyberArk Enterprise Password Vault is a very expensive product."
"Its price can be reduced."
"It's an affordable platform."
"It is a little bit on the expensive side."
