BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management vs. Delinea Secret Server

It is an absolute must in all organizations where security is taken seriously. For organizations where there is a tendency among the users' end to abuse access privileges, this tool comes in handy. It has features that would enable the administrator to look through video logs to see what was done by a specific user. Also has the capability to terminate or lock users/ user sessions.

Great for managing access to secrets and servers and is more secure than storing passwords in a browser. The browser plugin to autofill passwords works well. Being able to schedule access ahead of time is a big plus for me as I can be forgetful. If you want a lightweight password vault, however, it may not be the best choice.

• Allow applications updates without IT need
• Block dangerous applications
• Block unknown applications
• Elevate some windows basic function as installing local printer

• Works well with RBAC, workflow for access requests, and approvals for third parties.
• Allows monitoring and recording of remote sessions.
• Available for on-premise and cloud.

• Better communication to customers on new release compatibility
• Crowd-sourced rule logic for specific applications would be nice (I hear underway)
• Technical support processes could be a bit improved

• The sharing functionality NEEDS improvement. We share most passwords at a group level, but then it becomes impossible to share them with a dynamic group and one or two one-off people as well. This is a major shortcoming.
• I don't love the interface. I feel like there is an attempt at a dashboard, but it is really not effective.
• I've heard, but never seen, that the software can actually change passwords in the target systems. If this is part of its deliverable, I do not know how to use it, and I don't know how you would do that. Seems like a great feature for password management.

BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management is really usable thanks to the Cloud platform that provide central management, analytics, updates and policy definitions. For policies, quickstart covers around 80% of the overall configuration and we just have to define home made applications and dedicated use cases. From the user perspective, messages can be customized so it's easy to understand for user and they have an endpoint application to follow workflows approval.

My rating is purely based on the configurational activities, as feature-wise delineation has all the features that are very beneficial for customers, though the implementation is a bit more manual work, which can be reduced with a low-code platform. Along with that, we can have a better UI to have intuitiveness and can manage the platform for shared customers in a better way. Overall, it is a very good tool for PAM.

The product performed to the level of our requirements.

I actually haven't had to work with support. I have spoken to a colleague of mine who has worked with support and has been pleased.

The in person training was great. Very informative and the trainer was great. I would highly recommend this option if you're hesitant. Any questions can then be directed to support. Support is great as well, and will definitely help answer any questions. I would definitely
recommend adding some type of training as it was very helpful for our
staff.

It was informative and very helpful. They provide a lot of courses that give you exactly what is needed to manage the product. Any questions can then be directed to support. I would definitely recommend adding some type of training as it was very helpful for our staff. The online training sufficed for us.

BeyondTrust was super helpful with implementation and it only took a few weeks to get it up and running.

BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management has more features than CyberArk and more detailed options for configurations. BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management is more focused on setting up access-related endpoints, which requires some fine tuning and understanding for use cases where a single endpoint has to be shared with multiple vendors. CyberArk's setup is more geared to users' accounts and then endpoint management under the user accounts.

We explored Jum Cloud and ManageEngine. Delinea is comparable in terms of features; however, the implementation of these tools differs. Delinea is a bit more manual than the other two. However, the licensing and overall ROI are better for Delinea, as it provides almost all market-ready solutions and has a robust licensing mechanism, resulting in a better ROI.

It's very easy to deploy with minimal interruption.

• We are able to securely monitor activity from vendors accessing our network.
• This meets our cybersecurity objectives of securing our OT networks.
• The benefits far outweigh the initial cost of the software.

• The best return on investment is that all of our passwords are now up to date and usable by everyone in the department. The old way could only be accessed by one person at a time, and it was frequently wrong.
• We save a lot of time in IT by having the passwords easily accessible. We also meet our security audit objectives by using this app instead of, say, an Excel spreadsheet or an old application that is no longer supported, as was the case at a previous workplace.
• With the size of our department, we don't have enough passwords to go beyond the free version. It's fully functional, but it costs nothing (except some resources on a VM). ROI on free can't be beat.
