Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The notification alert feature where the network admin gets notified of probable malicious activity is the most valuable feature.""100% compliant and you don't have to maintain ID management for each and every user.""The user interface, overall, is really good. If I have some 20 servers in my ID, I can easily see for which servers I have read-only access, for which servers I have prompt-access, and for which servers I have server admin access.""The best part of this product is the administrator convenience. The portal is very user-friendly. An administrator can use it very easily.""The entire conversation that is happening between the servers and the client is recorded. It is a good feature if you want to do some analysis, and for investigation.""We use ARCON Privileged Access Management to monitor and record our admin users' activity.""That dashboard is okay.""The initial setup is very straightforward. It's not complex at all."

"One of the features I find most valuable is workflow, which allows you to configure the solution to have multiple approvals.""I have found most valuable the automatic scheduled password rotation and remote desktop monitoring. Additionally, the documentation is readily available and easy to find and the dashboard is straightforward.""I like that it's user-friendly.""The ability to give some groups access to different kind of databases with the storage of a password is the most valuable feature.""It offers the possibility of secure administration of hardware devices, as well as Linux systems administration from a Windows environment.""The "App to App" feature has been most impactful. It allows secure communication between applications without requiring direct user access, which is crucial for several applications.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the random changing of passwords.""The GUI interface is well-designed and user-friendly."

Cons
"Currently, along with the upgrade of the ARCON solution, we have to consider the desktops and the endpoints from where the solution will have to be accessed. We have to upgrade those endpoints and desktops as well. So upgrades are not smooth.""The auto-password change feature which was recently added. It is supposed to change the password. However, in some cases, while changing the password, it has caused me to lose to connection due to network-related issues or something similar. What we need to have is a type of log for failure of password change.""I would like to see a "wild card" kind of a feature or something that would enable us to search the video.""Managing users is difficult, so that is something that can be improved.""Initially, there were some issues with .NET applications in Windows 10 systems.""One common problem I faced with ARCON PAM was compatibility issues with certain software versions.""It would be helpful to have a "Favorites" list. For example, if I have 100 servers but I only go to 10 servers frequently, a Favorites list would allow me to go through those ten servers only.""Currently, we can manage only the SSH or RDP connections, but there are many more devices that are present, apart from our SSH and RDP. We want all this to be part of the ARCON solution. For the password management, they should increase the pool of supported devices, they should have more connectors."

More ARCON Privileged Access Management Cons →

"The API is no good.""One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic.""The tool should integrate additional features like OCR.""An area for improvement in Delinea Secret Server is its integration with ICAP servers.""The solution could be more user-friendly.""I don't know what kind of a cryptographic it uses to encrypt the password but it should be one of the stronger ones. Some of the cryptos have been accessed by hackers.""The integration with the ticketing system ServiceNow is complex.""It would be better if they had a Linux version of the secret server."
