Delinea Secret Server vs. Zscaler Private Access

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.

The tool is, for the most part, very intuitive. Most of our issues so far (working through them with our Resident Engineer) are the one-off applications. We are working on some exemptions to make them functional. Besides that, the team loves the tool and how it can provide better security than our previous tool.

• 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.

• Allows strong cyber security corporate policies
• Very reliable VPN application that operates at 100% efficiency
• Very easy to be configured with friendly user interface

• 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.

• Granularity and Complexity of Policy Enforcement
• Application Segmentation and Listener Configuration - The way applications are defined and listened for is fundamental to ZPA, but can be a source of frustration, especially when dealing with legacy or non-HTTP protocols
• The ZCC is the user's primary gateway, but its control over local system network behavior can sometimes clash with enterprise requirements.

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.

Few things stand out. The ease of access: It very convenient - one click to open add details and done. Packet capture: Can't talk enough about this feature. Troubleshooting private access is always problematic,but this feature helped a lot. One thing that can be improved is early warning about expiring authentication

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.

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.

All of these tools are for different needs. Zscaler Private Access being for internal seems very simple as it really only allows filtering up to L4 whereas ZIA allows for filtering up to L7. ZDX often tries to give insight into the environment but since it only works with preconfigured items, that then means when a new problem shows up - ZDX isn't helpful troubleshooting postmortem. For the internal side of the house - Zscaler Private Access' strength is its simplicity to configure.

• 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.

• Positive: We have now charged users internally for the service
• Negative: Dealing with users who also have the Zscaler Client Connector for their company, can cause confusions
• Negative: Enabling the Zscaler Internet Access entitlement has been a major headache for us because Zscaler Private Access users can't autheniticate through ZIA on a non corporate device.
