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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What sets CyberArk apart is its continuous innovation, staying ahead of the competition."
"The password rotation and the session recording are the most valuable features."
"In terms of ROI, deploying CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has secured the infrastructure, which saves money, time, and resources."
"We were able to reduce the number of privileged accounts by 50%, which helped to simplify our privileged access management environment."
"It has drastically reduced the attack surface for local administrative rights and the chance of escalation of privilege. We've removed, at this point, close to 98 percent of the local administrative accounts on workstations. If there were an incident, it would stop at that point and we'd be able to know."
"I like that you can remove the admin rights from the user's computer and have control over the environment. That means you can delete the local admins and grant them proper privileges with the console. So, they will get proper permissions for applications they need, but we don't have to do it. In the domain where we don't have control, the user can only do specified actions, but not all of them."
"The tool is an endpoint management system. It monitors everything a standard user does and helps elevate privileges when necessary for advanced users. It keeps an auditable trail of all activities. Practically, it stops and blocks potentially hazardous user behavior, whether intentional or unintentional. Certain companies must use endpoint management software because of national or international rules or ISO norms."
"This is the number one product for privilege account security."
"Seqrite Antivirus is an easy-to-use solution."
"The tool provides remote protection using a console or installation console along with email security."
 

Cons

"The installation process is pretty difficult."
"What I would really like to see improved is the AIM (Application Identity Manager). I think that it could be simpler to use, and much more straight forward."
"CyberArk should consider whitelisting important applications like PowerShell and DLL that are currently not allowed due to some malicious content."
"I'm not satisfied with the EPM, and I'm just looking to see if there's any other solution that we can get."
"Without knowledge, you are not able to find some items as they are really hidden within the UI."
"If you do not have certification, you cannot send a ticket; this makes dealing with technical support difficult."
"It is hard to deal with technical support if you are not certified."
"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."
"Seqrite Antivirus could support antivirus software when the user's device is offline."
"The solution needs improvement in stability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is reasonable for customers."
"licensing for this solution is based on the number of APV (privileged users), and the number of sessions that you want to record."
"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive. The solution is priced based on the number of accounts onboarded and the number of concurrent sessions. Everyone else is included in the price, such as support."
"The solution requires an annual license to use it. There can be some extra costs in some cases."
"I think that it was in the range of $200,000 that had to get approved."
"It's not at the lower end of the market. I think the price is reasonable considering the quality it delivers. It is a top-notch solution at a fair price point."
"I believe it's quite a reasonably priced solution. It's not very common to use CyberArk because it's a niche solution, but customers who are willing to control administrative accounts are willing to pay this money."
"The professional services for one eight-hour day would be $1,800."
"Seqrite Antivirus' licensing costs are yearly. I rate it an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is moderate."
