![]() ![]() I wish BeyondTrust packages the whole solution in one and includes the MySQL database so that when you deploy it, it deploys everything for you. "When we deploy BeyondTrust, we have to deploy our own database on a SQL server. After gaining it, how they're using it, where they're using it, etc." We need to ensure that accounts are securely stored and there is the right type of accountability around who is gaining the access. Once they have been onboarded, then the session management and password management are easy and nicely configurable." "It provides integrated password and session management in one solution, which is important for us because, from an auditing standpoint, we are accountable for the type of access being used. If it's a Windows server or a UNIX, you can basically scan your IT infrastructure and onboard the efforts, which should be managed. You can then segregate them if it's a network device or a firewall. You can scan the IP subnets and onboard all the devices. Otherwise, I find Smart Rules very convenient to work with." "The best aspect of the product is the ability to onboard devices. Though Smart Rules are convenient, those who do not have much experience with such things may find it difficult to understand how these things work. We did a lot of application integration using scripting." "BeyondTrust Password Safe has good reporting and Smart Rules which makes it convenient. With other vendors, we have to create our own scripts, whereas, with BeyondTrust, we can just use the in-built Smart Rules." "The ability to manage privileged account passwords is the most valuable feature." "The CI/CD and REST API are also satisfactory the solution has a full PAM feature set and they all work well." "Screen recording is valuable, and integration with applications is easy. It is a nice feature in BeyondTrust that some of the other PAM vendors don't have. For example, you can do onboarding based on different AD attributes. With Smart Rules, you can do automatic onboarding of accounts. It is a unique feature that BeyondTrust has as compared to other vendors such as CyberArk. BeyondTrust can help you throw a rope around it very rapidly." "Smart Rules is a nice feature in BeyondTrust. As organizations grow or acquire other companies and merge, they lose track of what they have. It makes it very easy to determine what is what in your environment. If a server has Microsoft SQL installed, it gets put into a group based on a Smart Rule. For example, if you want to group all of your database servers together, you can do that by using discovery and Smart Rules. When they perform a discovery, you know everything there is about a server, including what software is installed. ![]() The discovery engine in BeyondTrust is off the charts. ![]()
