Has strengthened privileged access control and improved audit visibility through session monitoring and password rotation
On the identity product side, it is awesome. However, they can improve in the documentation parts. For example, if there is a migration process, I can see the maximum customers are moving from self-hosted to on-premises or from on-premises to the cloud. It would be helpful if they released a generalized document for processes such as migration. A clear overview document would assist us in understanding more about the tool, configurations, and automations to enhance our security. Regarding the initial setup of CyberArk Identity, I faced some challenges. At some points, I could not find proper documentation for deploying, enhancing, or integrating with other components. I could not find the proper documentation in the community portal.

Efficiently manage applications with secure single sign-on and streamlined operations
Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access. Its ability to consolidate applications on a single interface streamlines operations significantly. The product is highly secure and reliable, especially in managing user access across various platforms. Multi-factor authentication enhances security by requiring additional verification steps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup of CyberArk Identity was straightforward."
"The most valuable features of CyberArk Identity are its ability to control access to administrative staff."
"The user identification is simplified, and managing user privileges, whether adding or revoking them, is also quite straightforward when utilizing CyberArk SaaS."
"The best feature of CyberArk Identity is the single sign-on feature that offers quick and one-click access."
"It has aided in troubleshooting by allowing logs to be extracted and sent to a correlation engine, such as QRadar, for notifications or alerts."
"The solution has good technical support."
"CyberArk Identity's ability to safeguard financial services infrastructure is good."
"If anyone makes an error, or if an incident occurs by accident, the business will not be harmed as a result of this activity."
"The product supports customization."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"The most important functions of Oracle Access Manager are single sign-on and its integration capability with different applications."
"I think that this product was really designed with scalability in mind, and we currently have about 1.6 million users and I am not aware of a limitation."
"Access Manager allows us to efficiently manage a broad spectrum of applications while ensuring secure, single-page application access."
"The solution is able to save time and resources for my clients."
"I rate Oracle Access Manager a nine out of ten."
"My company has used most features of Oracle Access Manager for various implementations, but the most helpful feature of the solution for the business and customers is single sign-on."
 

Cons

"CyberArk Identity could improve by having the ability to better manage the network, such as Cisco. There seem to be some issues in this area."
"Integration or deployment is extremely difficult for CyberArk Identity."
"The product is not cheap, especially if you opt for an on-premise deployment requiring a complex server infrastructure. On the other hand, choosing the software as a service version simplifies infrastructure requirements but necessitates being online all the time."
"They could improve their UI and make everything more user-friendly."
"One area for improvement is the complexity of the learning curve for new users."
"I'm not sure what needs improvement. It is a good platform."
"The solution could be easier to use and I found it to be very complex involving many steps."
"More integrations would be better."
"The solution's lifecycle management is troublesome. Also, another area of issue in the solution is the part involving documentation of certain features."
"Oracle Access Manager is not very suitable or too heavy for cloud-native environments and needs more customization and configuration compared to authorization servers such as Keycloak or WSO2 Identity Server."
"There are problems with stability."
"I suggest Oracle make the integration process for non-Oracle applications as straightforward and easy as it is for Oracle applications."
"The technical support is not very good at all."
"Technical support needs improvement, they could be 200% better. The reason that most people are having problems is because of the support they provide."
"Multi-factor authentication requires a lot of processes and technicalities."
"I would expect a product with a reputation like Oracle to be very stable and it is not in my opinion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think it is a fairly priced tool. I rate the tool between six and seven on a scale of one to ten where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"Their pricing is obviously a lot higher than many vendors in the marketplace but their service is also unmatched."
"The solution is cheap and I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"There could be some additional costs apart from the licensing costs of the solution when you want to develop connectors in CyberArk Identity."
"CyberArk Identity is an expensive solution."
"We find that the pricing and licensing of this solution is adequate, as compared to the other competitors in the market."
"The pricing of CyberArk Identity is competitive."
"There is an initial license and then there is a subscription needed."
"The price is really good and it is flexible because they have CPU licenses. The license is a one-time-only purchase."
"The tool is affordable."
"On a scale where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the solution a one. Purchasing a license for the solution is very expensive now."
"Can be expensive as a solution."
"The product is a little expensive."
"I cannot comment on the exact pricing because Oracle has different licensing models for other clients, making it flexible."
