    While the CatTools are used mainly by a colleague of mine, DameWare is only used periodically and definitely not on a daily base. We chose ARM (when we bought it, it was called 8Man) because it had a good and well fitting set of features for a reasonable price. In addition to …

    SolarWinds Access Rights Manager, in my opinion, is better than most of its competitors, because it doesn't have alot of bloat. Most alternatives employ very strict zero trust solutions, which may be what is needed, but in our case we can easily maintain those things ourselves. …

    We looked at Okta, Sailpoint, and some others but they were cost prohibitive and we needed to slap something together quickly and these required a lot of planning before implementation. Planning is a good thing and would certainly have helped but I wasn't given the option of …

    Selected Solarwinds arm because we were already heavily invested in Solarwinds products. The brand speaks volumes and ARM did not disappoint. It has performed as expected and been a useful tool in preparing reports for auditors.

    It [SolarWinds Access Rights Manager (ARM)] is well suited for small to medium sized companies who want to enhance and ease up their daily work. As well as it is suited for organized structures, it has its problems with very complex environments. For example, if you are working with direct and multiple permissions instead of having more granular group based permissions.

    Pros
    SolarWinds
    • SolarWinds Access Rights Manager is easy to set up and configure. We had the first report generated in a few hours.
    • The automated feature for the reports is great. We just set it and forget it and now the reports get emailed on schedule.

    Cons
    SolarWinds
    • Licensing model when we changed over to SolarWinds was [I feel] a nightmare. It needs to be more streamlined and SolarWinds needs to understand what their customers require. When we changed over to SolarWinds we found it very hard to get answers to what modules we were still licensed for.
    • Our current system is not functioning. We can't login to the application with the accounts we created that were working. The error that appears doesn't help to resolve it. So at present we just renewed licenses for this year and we can't use the system.

    SolarWinds ARM improved the data access for the organization and it saved time and money by providing accurate data for access rights when it expired to avoid unauthrized access.
