    CyberARK is superior in every way. Lieberman RED was selected by upper management without consulting with technical employees.

    Chose BeyondTrust Privileged Identity
    CyberArk and ERPM are direct competitors. Great thing about ERPM is the ability to integrate with Sailpoint out of the box. Add to that the lower overall cost of the product.

    Chose CyberArk Privileged Access Management
    I've managed to compete for solutions to CyberArk in the past as a Security Program Manager and found that CyberArk is truly the best-of-breed PIM/PAM tool. Cyberark has a fuller set of supported use cases and a more mature overall operating model. Everyone else is playing …

    Chose CyberArk Privileged Access Management
    CyberArk is better in every possible way. ERPM is engineered for a workstation model. It treats directories like they are computers with a lot of local accounts. Also many settings are universal, so it is either on or off. You cannot customize a checkout time per account is …

    Works great in a Wiindows/Linux environments. Easy to roll out and especially easy to update. Account manager stays in touch often. Monthly training on the product is a plus.

    Cyberark
    The system is great for enterprise or larger IT departments or teams where temporary or full access may be given using privileged IDs. Requirements for needing local admin access is also eliminated which can help with specific Windows workstation related tasks. It can be very useful when working with remote teams or contractors who may need temporary access to a system when required.

    Pros
    BeyondTrust
    • Manage local accounts of workstations and servers.
    • The web interface is easy for users of RED to use.
    • The shared password list is a very nice feature that allows users to store credentials that have to remain static.

    Cyberark
    • Automatically discover new servers on the network and take control of the local admin password by vaulting it and ensuring nobody knows the password. A different password on every server.
    • Automatically roll the password in a configurable manner - after each use, after a certain period of time, etc.
    • Track and govern sensitive account usage by ensuring only properly authorized users can access the vault and obtain the credentials and then monitor usage.

    Cons
    BeyondTrust
    • Not as slick as CyberArk
    • Training is free, but could use a lot of improvement
    • Documentation needs refinement

    Cyberark
    • GUI - right now everything is on one page/dashboard. Some level of folder/Safe type view would be great
    • More options when storing passwords - especially for network based passwords
    • Better integrations with vendors like Cisco so that admins dont need to really get the password from the vault (think Last Pass type add on)

    Cyberark
    It is known as one of the safest products in the market. It has good support and is also available as on-premise. You can run it virtually on VMWare (and probably on other hypervisors as well). You can have a second instance on bare metal and that makes it a very safe system.
