Chose Delinea Secret Server
Thychotic Secret Server was heads and shoulders above the next consideration on our list.
There were not very many solutions that provided the entire package of taking an account from creation and deactivating it when no longer needed, as well as providing the discovery of unknown service accounts. Other solutions like RoboForm and LastPass did not offer the …
We tried using 1Password, and they have a great mobile app, but they weren't able to do the password rotation on our devices. Secret Server was basically our top option after reviewing.
KeePass is fine for individual use, but it does not meet the same objectives. There are a lot of products like KeePass that are just not as portable or robust, and do not have the kind of granularity Secret Server has. Being able to assign password permissions based on user …
I've only used simple phone apps for this before. This is the only enterprise-grade solution I've used in this space. Given THOSE options, Secret Server is a fantastic solution. I still feel like there is a better interface out there somewhere.
Besides KeePass, I have used the built-in browser password vaults, like the one for Chrome. These however are not very secure as security can be bypassed. KeePass is lighter weight and could be considered more secure as it is not a website. You can also create alternate modes …
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 …
Dashlane was less intuitive and the feature to automatically fill forms with username and password wasn’t working as good as KeePass. Also managing it, creating new passwords etc. took more time.
KeePass is free and compatible with all the devices you or your customers and it has a lot of different uses. Is not only a password manager like Norton safe password or the avast's one. Like the password managers of the browsers, no, with KeePass every customer can find a …
We didn't use other products. Before Keepass, Our Users were using the password saving in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. In our opinion, this is not really safe. There you also cant save any other applications and passwords. So people were writing down some passwords on …
We have tried Last Pass, while it's very nice to use, there are times where it was down and we couldn't access our passwords. There were troubles with the website or plug-in at times when it was updated. It wasn't as trusted due to these factors being out of our control due to …
I cannot remember how and why I selected KeePass. But I think it was the possibility to try it as a shareware product first. In the past, there were only the most important features realized in the software (and some stuff I never needed). To see how the software has been …
All mentioned passwords in the Subject are good if you have a Budget for it. If not, KeePass is ideal as it is free and regularly updated. End users can learn it fast with no additional resources.
KeePass is the most simple of the password managers, but it also means it doesn't scale as well and doesn't have all the features some of the other options have. IT Glue is a much better choice for company-wide management of passwords but it has high costs and is much more than …
Better UI, and we felt that was imperative for our user base to get a high adoption rate of a new application. The features were very similar, but KeePass seems like a better fit for the organization and grouping of credentials, and the search feature.
I have only used browser-based password storage; these are more convenient if you are working in many different places, but for any password storage within a given company, KeePass would be superior.
I have used LastPass, 1Password, Chrome Password Management, and several others. Most either are not secure enough for the need, require an internet connection/external service, are not portable, or not open-sourced/require subscription/purchase. Keepass is simple to manage, …
It isn't in the same league as the others. KeePass is great for a quick and free password manager, but it doesn't have the autofill capabilities as the others.
We did not look at other solutions since this solution accomplishes everything we expect it to. I cannot offer any comparison (other than comparing to NOT using anything). KeePass has been around for quite some time and is a trusted name in the world of password security and …
Even though KeePass keeps your files encrypted locally on your hard drive, I felt like I would be a small target to get hacked. Putting all of your passwords in the cloud with everyone else like LastPass does seems like a bigger target to hackers. If LastPass was ever hacked, …
Delinea Secret Server is a similar product, but I feel it is not as easy to use. I am not sure if it has a mobile app. Its autofill and browser extension is nice to have. It seems like a more robust application than what I am doing which is primarily just password storage.
We considered several packages, but we focused on what best suited our organization. Security was the most important factor, along with flexibility and how we could customize the package to maximize its effectiveness. Then, of course, we considered the cost of the package. And …
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.
KeePass is a perfect tool for use as a password manager and for storing similar sensitive data. This is especially true if you work from a fixed workstation, supporting your clients. KeePass is incredibly valuable. If you're often on the road and need to log in to KeePass occasionally to look up passwords or data, this can be inconvenient. And quickly and securely sharing data across other media isn't really an option with KeePass. Security is more important in this situation.
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.
I don't believe that this is so much a negative, but be sure that you keep your password database saved in a location that is accessible (even during an outage). Failure to do so will make it hard/impossible to recover passwords in the event that your database is unreachable (such as if a network drive failure).
My very good experience in the past 15 years of usage of KeePass makes it easy to decide for a renewal of this friendship. I was never disappointed and KeePass always meets my expectations. The software runs stable and if there should be a software error, it will be fixed in no time. This is customer satisfaction.
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.
KeePass is easy to use and requires no prior training using it. I would rate KeePass a score 9 out of 10. It stands out in managing credentials securely and efficiently. No other similar app performs its core function as well, making KeePass an essential tool for password management and security.
I have almost never had to contact support. This product has a wide community, a very expansive documentation/forum site where generally any question/issue already has an answer/fix or explanation/workaround, or plans for improvement in a future version. On the occasions that I have reached out, answers were fairly quick, useful, and respectful.
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.
KeePass is the most simple of the password managers, but it also means it doesn't scale as well and doesn't have all the features some of the other options have. IT Glue is a much better choice for company-wide management of passwords but it has high costs and is much more than just a password manager. LastPass is probably closer to what KeePass can do, but offers the ability to access passwords from all devices such as computers and phones. KeePass is better for being free and is best for use on a single computer.
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.
