Straightforward to scale, has good auto-fill capabilities, and allows us to share passwords without them being visible to other team members
It would be good to have some kind of best use cases, tips, and tricks on the platform. In terms of implementation, it took us a little bit longer to implement it, but on the whole, we're happy with the product. 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.

Has improved credential security with remote password change and role-based access
I have not faced any significant issues with Delinea Secret Server during this period of time, but we had a problem with a web password filler, which is a template used for accessing a web URL using Secret Server, where we faced some session management issues since session management is not applicable for the web password filler. This should be the improvement that we require from Delinea Secret Server. The session management is not applicable in this case; we can manage the session and have session management inside the remote systems within the organization. However, when it comes to web-related access, we can access directly through Delinea Secret Server. We can access any URL through Secret Server, but the problem is that the session cannot be managed on the web URL due to it having multiple systems. I do not have any other recommendations regarding the improvement of Delinea Secret Server at this time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members. The auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"Provides us with the ability to control access [to secrets] by groups."
"It offers the possibility of secure administration of hardware devices, as well as Linux systems administration from a Windows environment."
"The product provides a native user experience without requiring users to install additional software or agents."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it provides us with a secure way of managing passwords."
"The ease of granting access to a secret without having to share the actual password and the password rotation were the main features I found effective for password management."
"I have found most valuable the automatic scheduled password rotation and remote desktop monitoring. Additionally, the documentation is readily available and easy to find and the dashboard is straightforward."
"The solution's stability is flawless."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the random changing of passwords."
 

Cons

"The cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."
"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."
"There should also be an easier way to be able to transfer user data to other users who have kind of left the company."
"Its remote support feature needs improvement."
"We find the documentation hard to understand."
"When working with larger enterprises Thycotic Secret Server becomes a little cumbersome to work with because they do not allow as much flexibility as some of the other competitors, such as CyberArk. Thycotic Secret Server could improve by being more flexible when it comes to customization, and increase the number of API integrations."
"The setup for this solution is complex. I'm not going to lie, you need a specialized system security engineer to deploy it."
"There are some things that I know are really important to include like A/B version features which are available in Windows. I would say that they should be included in the road map."
"Installation can sometimes be difficult, depending on the environment."
"In terms of what could be improved, the whole thing with distributed engines, et cetera, is a little bit tricky."
"Although the password policy was interesting, the default setting was inadequate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a little bit on the expensive side."
"It isn't terribly expensive."
"We have an enterprise license as well as a user license and a support license."
"Secret Server is expensive when compared to the cost to some alternatives."
"Its price is okay. We don't compete on pricing. We seldom use price to win over our competitors. We prefer it this way because if we can sustain the price, we make more margin as well. We don't want the price to go down to the bottom where despite the win, there's no margin at all."
"I would give the price a four on a scale from one to ten, with one being the cheapest and ten being the most expensive. We pay for the license on a yearly basis, and we paid for three years. It costs around 5000 a year."
"Compared to other solutions, Delinea Secret Server is competitively priced but on the higher side."
"There are different plans and additional licensing costs that can be instituted for add-ons."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, with ten being a high price."
