Early threat detection and diverse OS support with enhanced security
Ekran System offers a lightweight solution that does not impact the systems where it is implemented. It provides rich metadata for monitored activities and includes threat analysis capabilities for early alerting and investigation of unauthorized actions. Additionally, it supports diverse operating systems and allows for monitoring and enforcement policies, like blocking actions for policy violations, and provides a retention of historical data in a lightweight format.

Centralized control has strengthened privileged security and simplified audit investigations
While One Identity Safeguard is a strong and reliable PAM solution, there are a few areas where it can be further improved to enhance user experience and scalability. Regarding the user interface and experience, the UI, while functional, can be a bit complex for new users. A more intuitive and modern dashboard with simplified navigation would improve adoption, especially for non-technical stakeholders. Regarding integration flexibility, although it supports major integrations, expanding out-of-the-box connectors for more cloud-native apps, DevOps tools, and SaaS platforms would be beneficial. Faster and simpler API-based integrations could reduce deployment efforts. Regarding scalability and performance in large enterprise environments, performance tuning and scaling can require additional efforts. Enhancing seamless scalability and high availability configuration would improve enterprise readiness.

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

Pros

"It supports diverse operating systems and allows for monitoring and enforcement policies, like blocking actions for policy violations, and provides a retention of historical data in a lightweight format."
"Over four years of use, we have not encountered a single system crash or failure, and the product is stable."
"It is easy to manage. There is a very logical, clear user interface. Also, the integration of scripts is thoughtfully implemented. Overall, it's a nice product to manage."
"The implementation time was quick. It was basically up and running within a week."
"It is the life of our customers because it brings a lot of security."
"Since using One Identity Safeguard, we have more control over who accesses what, especially regarding vendors, and we have seen billing actually go down because we now know how long vendors have been on the server and how long they have worked on it."
"The incidents of password theft have reduced by around forty percent, which has been a very good result from using One Identity Safeguard for our organization and is a great benefit for us."
"There is ease of implementation."
"I like that One Identity Safeguard lets you configure the maximum number of connections to the target, a configuration I didn't find in its competitor."
 

Cons

"Ekran System could improve in terms of communication to the market, particularly after their rebranding as Shiteka."
"One Identity Safeguard could be improved, and some user tools can be enhanced."
"We sometimes face issues with configuration and things like that, but we manage to solve them."
"One Identity Safeguard can be improved with a more modern and intuitive interface, better troubleshooting and diagnostic tools, enhanced real-time monitoring and reporting, and stronger integration with cloud and hybrid identity platforms to simplify administration and improve operational visibility."
"There is room for improvement in One Identity Safeguard in several areas."
"The customer support for One Identity Safeguard was not very good and definitely needs to be improved."
"I just received a question from a customer in regards to a connection with Oracle OID. I tried to integrate Safeguard with the Oracle YAML as well as something else to manage the groups and users from a different system, like AD or LDAP. This one feature could be better. At this moment, the platform system can only use the integration with LDAP or AD. The software for research and development to create a connector to a YAML platform can be very complicated."
"There is room for improvement in the launch module. They built in a launch button but they don't have effective instructions for configuring it to allow it to launch an RDP session. They're working on that, but the button is in the live product. If they were going to install something that wasn't useful, they should have just disabled it and not rolled it out with the product."
"I find it challenging mostly when managing complex work, especially when trying to implement it on a larger scale; sometimes it becomes slow, and the automation process also slows down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The full license is expensive but if you plan to use it in a big organization then it is the best option because it is more flexible."
"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
"The license is around $3,000 per month."
"We have a yearly license. The cost depends on how much a company wants to invest in technology. In our organization, we believe in modern digitization and automation processes so we found it affordable. One Identity was not that much less than other solutions and it is not a cheap solution. There were number of cheaper solutions. However, it's the most effective, according to our evaluation."
"Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
"As compared to other products, it is reasonable, but the training sessions are too expensive."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
