Security simplified!

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Less password reset requests, less time spent by technician setting up shortcuts to applications

Pros:

We have been using Centrify for quite some time and are very pleased with the product itself. Their support and team of Customer Success Managers are exceptional, always are available and have never gone without resolving an issue. I work for a property management company and to have all of our applications in one place and easily accessible is a huge time saver. Our users have only one user name and password to remember making our helpdesk queue go down by not having all those passwords reset tickets. Can't say enough about Centrify, great product, excellent support!

Cons:

Only thing I would suggest is more application in the apps store. I would also suggest more reports available there is a limited amount

Easy To Be Integrated, Can Be Trusted

Pros:

Easy to use, scale and maintain vs. our old custom in-house solution.

Cons:

Difficult to integrate with some of our custom apps, but not an issue in general terms.

Very robust but difficult to deploy

3.0 7 years ago

Pros:

There are many many ways to use Centrify for identity management. From SSO to Password Vault to even some privileged account management.

Cons:

Centrify is one of the priciest solutions available compared to similar products in the space. The solutions is also very complex and difficult to deploy. I have seen may issues arise during implementation. The UI also seems outdated and not as efficient as other competitors.

Great SSO application

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Easy to implement and great SSO solution.

Pros:

I love that this application allows all users to have a simplified login method and allows for additional security settings through the MFA for select applications.

The only thing that i would say about this software that is a negative is that is is decently pricey compared to other solutions. Other than the price the product is phenomenal.

Make privileges Access Management easier with CyberArk

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: Overall CyberArk is complete and feature rich solution to organizations for privilege access management without hassel and support to achieve most of the compliance requirements.

Pros:

CyberArk can cater compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS when it comes to compliances which is major challenge to Payment Card Industry. Automatic credential rotation can be set based on organization policies to reduce the risk of brute force attacks. It support remote administration of all type of operating systems. Tool provides recording of user sessions and auditing logs which is very useful during forensic investigation. It has threat analytics capabilities and can detect suspicious activities of password theft. Multi factor authentication is supported , so increase the security of the privilege user.

Cons:

CyberArk is quiet expensive and license model goes per user basis. Solution required set of VM's which don't count for total cost of ownership and deployment is quite complex. For password vault physical servers may recommend and when it comes to high availability and backup several physical servers may required. Continuous session recording required bigger storage. Patch update of password vault is bit complex which require thorough testing with professional support.

Easy, Hassle-Free One-Click Sign In

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: When we work together, sometimes multiple Reps are using the same PC. Idaptive Services have made it easy to sign someone out and sign ourselves in without worring about going to each individual site/program to do so.

Pros:

We have office spaces throughout our 843-acre park. This means we are often in different locations every day, and sometimes even in one single shift. Idaptive makes it easy for us to sign in and out of all the programs we need with just a single click, saving time and energy for a very, very busy Visitors Services department.

Cons:

It can sometimes fail without warning, looking like it worked but in fact keeping you signed out of many products and forcing a restart. This is not a common issue.
