Delinea Secret Server vs. ManageEngine Password Manager Pro

I would recommend Delinea to any organization or colleague, as I have used it to support our shared services model, as well as a dedicated model for people support to customers, for privileged access management. Delinea has provided us with effective methods for handling unnecessary login attempts to the customer infrastructure. Additionally, the connection thread is available in the audit trail for review, which is a valuable feature to have.

It's great for any company that relies on active-directory as their primary source of user password authentication and other data. It's ability to integrate with a host of other tools such as Google Workspace, Azure AD (if you aren't using ADFS/DirSync/etc.), FreshService, Trello, etc. as well local apps like Postgres, i/AS400, and more make it a great middleware tool for SS.

• Password Management: Its entire purpose, really. Secret Server stores passwords in an incredibly easy to use way. They can be organized in groups, they contain all the information about the site or system the password is used for (including URLs for websites), and even a notes field. You can set up specific policies for expirations and complexity, and Secret Server can even generate strong passwords for you. Using a password is simple, too, since you can just click a button to add it to your clipboard; you don't even have to unmask the password.
• Security: The passwords are stored encrypted in a SQL database, and the application requires an authenticated login. This could be local, but we tie it into Active Directory. Each folder of passwords has groups assigned (in our case, again, AD, but you can make them local groups) with different permission levels, so we can compartmentalize passwords. Desktop technicians don't have access to network switch passwords, etc.
• Easy Setup: It took me about an hour to get the server running, from spinning up the VM to importing our old password list. It took a little longer to organize the passwords into proper folders, and then assigning groups, but it was easy to do.
• Personal Passwords: Each user also gets a personal folder, where they can keep their own, unshared passwords. This is nice for sites or systems with individualized logins (e.g., a firewall, VPN, etc.)
• Favorites: Secret Server lets you tag passwords as "favorites" so you can easily find ones you use constantly. The search feature is nice, but this is nicer.

• PMP is great for sorting passwords into different groups depending on the category of application access. This makes it easy to find the password that you are looking for.
• Application credentials can easily be saved to the clipboard to make it easier to copy and paste them into the appropriate log in screen.
• Different types of credentials for the same application can be stored next to each other and are easy to distinguish by the icon next to the name. For example, SSH credentials, web credentials, and local root credentials are all easy to sort under one application group.

• Personally I would prefer an app instead of a website.
• Can be too many options. Sometimes I just want to add a secret quickly.
• Can be slow to adopt until you get used to how it works.

• We found somre problem and complexity with grant access for differente people.

We are really pleased with ManageEngine Password Manager Pro. It is great software!

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.

ManageEngine Password Manager Pro has an amazing interface for all kind of users. It is easy to use over different ambient and for anybody. T he privileges use have much more control over his password databases and its action for its teams. The auditors have many reports on differents formats, type of reports, filters o action and more.

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 contact is very easy. It is by mail. The resolution isn't easy because the support don't speak spanish and its english isn't good. In my opinion, ManageEngine Password Manager Pro should be have a Spanish Call Center for America.

Planning the implementation with the Team leader of end users. At the begining start with two server in High Availability. Organice the data base structure of resources and users access before that to deploy in production.

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 ability to manage your service accounts and added layers of complication to ensure security.

We evaluated one on-premise solution, Password Manager Pro, one cloud-based solution called Passwordstate to store all sensitive password information and also secure notes. The latter was licensed by users, so we knew as the team grew it would cost quite a lot more to maintain. We wanted access for various users within the information technology and systems department at a granular level to have separation of the various passwords into categories which we then give permission relevant for the right users.

• It has increased our security profile within our organization
• it has made implementation of complex password policies easier to achieve
• It has assisted with the hardening of the infrastructure by automatically proecting our service accounts and rotating passwords regularly

• We needed a tool to replace an in-house tool. This took care of that need.
• This was absolutely the most cost effective tool for enterprise password management.
• Managing more than a few thousand accounts may require a more robust tool.
