Helps secure the infrastructure and control users with admin rights
There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies. For instance, if we need to stop PowerShell scripting, we have to create a different policy for that. Being able to create a sub-level policy within a top-level policy would be good. Currently, no user-based policy option is available inside the EPM console. We can only create computer-based policies. The database is available, but there is a drawback in not being able to create local groups on the EPM console. We only have to depend on Active Directory. This limits infrastructure security as we depend on the Active Directory team to manage user groups. If they remove any users, we lose control. If we could create groups locally and block them or set specific policies, we would have more control. Local endpoint management is missing from the EPM site. Moreover, there is an issue with policies not running as expected when we make enhancements. We have to find multiple ways to whitelist applications or enhance policies.

Offers security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed
There are a couple of things. One is the BreachWatch feature. It's one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords. So, it checks the passwords and helps improve them. There's also a security audit that shows us how many passwords are weak and how often they're being changed. Some people haven't changed their passwords for months, even though applications force them to change every 45 or 90 days. So you can catch those issues and warn them. Most applications allow for rotation, but some don't. I've seen people use the same password for years. At least Keeper tells us these passwords haven't been rotated, and we can warn them to change them manually since we can't force people to change the password.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We did immediately begin to see results when using CyberArk."
"All of the features are valuable."
"The solution allows me to give access and privileges to each user individually"
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is its scalability."
"The department management aspect of the solution is the most valuable aspect."
"This is the number one product for privilege account security."
"Their customer support was excellent."
"It allows whitelisting."
"BreachWatch feature is one of the most useful things because it shows us who on our team has weak or compromised passwords."
 

Cons

"The product needs a streamlined user interface; improvements to the user interface can enhance user experience and make the solution more intuitive to navigate."
"There are many features that are currently missing. A customization option is required for certain policies."
"It's an old product and has many areas that can be improved."
"The management of Privilege Access is not satisfactory."
"Performance could be better. We have a couple of problems with CyberArk right now. One of the problems is performance in our environment. Support also takes a long time to respond. If the user already has local admin rights, then I can't collect any events in the console from this device. There are also some options in CyberArk that are not working properly, and are not helpful in this case. I can't collect any information to create a proper policy for the device. I have to investigate everything manually, or even disable the local admin from the device. I can collect the events only after this, and it's very time consuming. In my case, it's a waste of resources."
"The product's threat protection and defense capabilities need enhancement."
"We have had some major issues with the tool, but we have worked with the R&D teams and we have worked with support. There is room for improvement, especially on response times. But they're working on it and they're doing the best they can."
"It was complex to introduction the product to the end-users and the technical team."
"The final implementation was challenging because we had to roll it out to three different departments within the same umbrella, each with its own domains."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."
"I think that it was in the range of $200,000 that had to get approved."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The tool is priced high. I would rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"Pricing depends on how many devices you use. Right now, on-premise, it costs us a little, but it's worth it. It seems like the cloud solution is much more expensive. We got this solution one year ago, and it's like we bought the solution, and now they are not going to support it on-premise anymore. We are in the implementation phase, and we missed this, and we already paid for the licenses. This is wasted time from my perspective, and CyberArk should be more customer-friendly."
"I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten since the price can be too high for smaller businesses."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has a very high price, so it's a one out of ten for me in terms of pricing."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable for customers."
"It's good value for money."
