Mahesh Malve - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Business Development Associate at DigitalTrack Solutions ind pvt ltd
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.

Technical Support Executive at Safezone Secure Solutions Private Limited
A stable solution that provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console
If a person wants to use a DLP product, they must know what data they want to protect and how to block, allow, and monitor data. We will not have any issues if the policies are correct and the user is authorized to perform the actions. Uninstalling is also pretty quick. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Two-factor authentication has saved us from a couple of brute force attacks on a couple of our C-level executives."
"It's one of the best products we've seen. When you start looking at the functionality and use cases and usability of the product, it's straightforward. They designed this product with the end-user in mind, and they also had the sysadmin who is supporting the product in mind. They really did a nice job. Overall, it's a nice product to work with."
"The Transparent Mode is the number one advantage of the product."
"Integration of One Identity Safeguard has positively affected our operations by centralizing authentication across Linux and Unix, reducing manual account management, and simplifying user access control through Active Directory integration."
"I give it an eight because of its robust security features, its splendid automated password management, and real-time activity monitoring that stood out to me."
"I have successfully connected Identity Manager (IGA) to Safeguard to achieve Privilege Access Governance, making it possible by using an OOTB connector in Identity Manager to talk to the Safeguard system so I can govern the data from Safeguard and provision PAM accounts from Identity Manager to achieve a complete lifecycle."
"The integration of One Identity Safeguard has had a clear positive impact on both security and operational efficiency, with earlier estimates showing thirty to forty percent fewer password-related tickets and fifty percent faster audit preparation, along with reducing risk and eliminating shared credentials."
"Customer Service: absolutely perfect Technical Support: Technical support is 10/10, absolutely."
"The product provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console."
 

Cons

"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich. We spoke to our Safeguard reps who have acknowledged that some of the reporting features can certainly be improved and that we're not the only customer who has cited this. There are very little out-of-the-box reporting capabilities. You have to build the queries and the report. I believe in the next release they're going to be addressing this."
"I think One Identity Safeguard could be improved by making the UI more user-friendly and simplifying some configurations, as it can feel a bit complex at times."
"The only thing that we are looking for is to reduce the false alarming in the system to better analyze genuine concerns."
"The customer support for One Identity Safeguard was not very good and definitely needs to be improved."
"For some users, the physical appliance has been a bit buggy."
"I find it complicated to implement HTTPS monitoring because the documentation is unclear."
"I rate customer support six out of ten. It needs improvement as it can significantly impact customer access."
"If I had to point out something that could be improved or is sometimes seen as missing, it would be user experience or UI."
"The user experience should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is cheaper than CyberArk. Its price is fair."
"Its subscription cost is too much, and sometimes, it is very difficult to pitch the solution to the management for cost approval. If the cost is reduced a little bit, it would be easier. If its cost was less, many other organizations that currently cannot afford it would be able to use this technology. I'm sure many organizations around the globe are having issues with identity management, and it is a very difficult task for IT to manage privileged accounts."
"They have comparable pricing. All identity products are essentially priced in a similar way. It's a per-user base."
"It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
"Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
"We bought their other products, so it was not that expensive. It is one of those where the more you buy, the cheaper it is."
"The license is very expensive for us, partly due to inflation and partly because of the exchange rate between the Dollar and the Iranian Rial. We purchased a perpetual license that we've been using up until now, but I believe that we are not going to update it in the future. Instead, we plan to find another third-party to support us with the license, in the sense that we would have access to their license as a shared agreement."
"The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
