Has enabled bulk onboarding and password rotation while ensuring secure privilege management
I have faced stability issues when upgrading BeyondTrust Password Safe solution. The upgrade process can be lengthy compared to other modules. For example, upgrading the appliance and reconfiguring HA is easier in PRA. However, in BeyondTrust Password Safe, the upgrade activity can take longer, and I have occasionally experienced being stuck during appliance version upgrades, sometimes duplicating the upgrade. Regarding additional features, we have good features in BeyondTrust Password Safe compared to other modules, such as Secret Safe to secure secrets and the check-in, check-out functionality. We already have the main features, but I think it would be helpful if BeyondTrust implemented a heartbeat check feature on the privileged account level. This feature would allow PAM to check the credentials of privileged accounts, indicating if they are correct or not, showing if the heartbeat has failed if they are wrong.

Easy to deploy and offers a good return on investment
CyberArk is the oldest tool and the most experienced one that can be integrated with a lot of interfaces and platforms, which is a huge advantage. A product like senhasegura is very new on the market and is doing very well while also growing very fast. Again, they are very good at integrating with several platforms. The tool is growing and I see a really good future for the tool. The tool has to improve its interface and make the product more user-friendly. In CyberArk, we need more dashboards to monitor things. In senhasegura, again, we need the personalizable dashboards.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It improved our overall return on investment by at least two-fold and gave us more intelligence on our assets than we expected."
"Screen recording is valuable, and integration with applications is easy. We can customize whatever we want. We did a lot of application integration using scripting."
"BeyondTrust Password Safe is a good PAM tool."
"BeyondTrust is three times less expensive than CyberArk."
"I find that BeyondTrust Password Safe is a very effective application for password management."
"Session recording, password rotation, and password vaulting are the most valuable features."
"It simplifies your compliance and tracking to benchmark other credentials and analytics."
"The performance is good."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that everything is good in the tool."
 

Cons

"We didn't see a return on our investment."
"The only feature they could improve is the banners because they aren't informative. For example, if something is not correct and I open the error notification, the dialogue box simply says, "This is an error." It would be great if they could provide some valuable comments about how to fix the errors."
"We face screensaver timeout issues and problems with the server. I would like the product to include a server visibility feature."
"There are multiple features that have issues, although they could be specific to our environment. What we have seen is that whenever a user gets added to the authentication store, the sync between Password Safe and the authentication store, which is generally easy, takes a lot of time. It does not occur immediately."
"The database instance onboarding should be simplified."
"The only improvement I could suggest would be standardizing documentation, but that's more the responsibility of the implementing engineer rather than BeyondTrust Password Trust itself. The documentation must be specific and narrow for implementation, not just broad guidelines."
"If there was one thing, it would be having the documentation standardized. They should keep the documentation consistent. For example, when BeyondTrust updated one of their admin guides, they left out the information on the discovery account requirements, and then over a period of time, we ended up having to search multiple different documents to put together a string of information for a specific topic, which was problematic. It was minor, but it was problematic. Standardized documentation would be the one thing I would suggest."
"The effectiveness of BeyondTrust Password Safe's session management capabilities for SSH and RDP is pretty much robust, but it needs more improvement for other applications and web-based applications."
"The tool has to improve its interface and make the product more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When you buy Password Safe and perform your initial Discovery, you have all these servers that are added to your assets in BeyondTrust, but you're not using a license until you actually start managing the systems. BeyondTrust's licensing is based on the systems when they're managed, which means when an administrator is able to connect to the server through BeyondTrust with a managed account. There would be a privileged account on the endpoint when the licensing starts. A significant advantage to that is that there are many organizations that want to evaluate their environment prior to automatic management."
"The pricing of BeyondTrust is very good as compared to other products. That was the main reason we decided to go with BeyondTrust at first."
"We just pay for Password Safe. Session management is included, but we don't use it. There aren't any additional costs besides the standard licensing fees. We pay for an annual license."
"The pricing structure is better than the competitors. It's much cheaper than CyberArk. They do the licensing on the basis of assets, not on the number of users. For CyberArk, they base the licensing on the number of users, and they have an expensive model of pricing. BeyondTrust has a cheaper model."
"The product is quite affordable."
"This solution is not cheap—it's a very expensive solution. Very, very expensive compared to the features and functions that they offer."
"It has subscription-based licensing. BeyondTrust is three times less expensive than CyberArk."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"Compared to CyberArk, the tool is very cheap."
