Find out in this report how the two Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The password vault and session monitoring are useful."
"The product is an important security measure against credential theft. It ensures session isolation and password rotation including pushing passwords to the endpoints."
"All access to our servers by both staff and vendors is monitored and recorded."
"Increased our insight into how privileged accounts are being used and distributed within our footprint."
"It has helped from an auditing perspective identify who has access to privileged accounts."
"The central password manager is the most valuable feature because the password is constantly changing. If an outsider threat came in and gained access to one of those passwords, they would not have access for long."
"Creating policies and the password rotation feature have been valuable. We don't have to memorize our password for the ADM account."
"CyberArk Privileged Access Manager is stable."
"The cloud-based services are a nice feature."
"The scalability is acceptable."
"WildFire's application encryption is useful."
"I like the analysis they apply to the unknown files, and I think they have good technology to use as a sandboxing tool. I didn't find something similar to WildFire in the marketplace."
"Whole team can use the firewall and understand it."
"The most valuable feature is the improved security that it offers."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable feature is the Automatic Verdict, to recognize whether something is a threat, or not."
"The documentation is rather basic and it is missing many use cases."
"The initial setup was a bit complex."
"The Vault's disaster recovery features need improvement."
"This product needs professional consulting services to onboard accounts effectively based user profiles."
"There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's a pretty complex solution."
"The solution should be able to mitigate internal threats"
"I think having a distributed architecture would certainly help this solution."
"The authentication port is available in CyberArk Alero but not Fortinet products."
"They can keep on doing more updates. As new malware and viruses are coming out, they can make sure that WildFire is up to date."
"There are certain changes that I was expecting in the previous version, and I hope that they are soon fixed. All of the problems that I have faced so far have been resolved."
"There are more specialized solutions that compete with Wildfire. Therefore, they need to work on their machine learning and AI to be more competitive."
"The free version does not have real-time updates. It is slow."
"The system performance degrades after the solution has been deployed for some time. The data that it gives us becomes a little bit slow. When you try to get some data for troubleshooting, it seems like it's working hard to extract that data."
"It would be nice if there was an easier way to install and deploy it, such as through the inclusion of wizards."
"Palo Alto Networks WildFire should be more real-time in nature. The signature updates should happen in a minute or less than a minute to be a very good feature for the customer."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex, mainly due to the GUI console and management challenges."
