CyberArk Privileged Access Management vs. Dashlane Password Manager

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.

Dashlane Password Manager is great at offering a corporate solution for password management. Using the chrome extension makes it easy to train up staff that may be reluctant to use unique, secure information for their logins. In the event that a login needs to be shared with other staff members, Dashlane Password Manager makes it easy to securely share the info.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Ensuring secure & unique passwords created for each account.
• Allowing the company to see a "security score" of how secure the team's password management is.
• Sharing passwords securely between employees.
• A "vault" for storing other secure information (notes, credit cards, etc.)
• Free Hotspot Shield VPN included in our tier of accounts.

Incentivized

• 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)

Incentivized

• Initial setup was a little difficult.
• User SSO invite and sign on would not work at first but this seems to have been improved/fixed.
• The extension on websites doesn't work sometimes and will need to be refreshed if you open a new tab but have already logged in before.

It has served us very well until now and at the pricepoint it doesn't make us second guess our current relationship.

We have only used the built-in password management in Chrome before. Dashlane is a more built-out product compared to that. It has several features like autogenerating passwords, group management, and dark web monitoring that the standard password management in a web browser does not have. Overall, its usability is pretty similar to Chrome, although some end users complained about issues with understanding how Dashlane works.

Customer support and technical support have always been great when we require assistance. Especially when we come across issues that we're not familiar with.

We've had no issues with Dashlane. I can't speak to their customer service because I have not personally needed to contact them. I guess that speaks about their product if we've not had any issues to reach out about. Great for supporting data/information on multiple platforms that are shared among team members.

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.

Dashlane’s customer support is often rated higher, providing more responsive and helpful assistance. LastPass has a slightly steeper learning curve than Dashlane, but it offers more flexibility with user permissions, which can benefit teams. Dashlane includes unlimited passkey support and a clean breach history, while LastPass is more accommodating for smaller teams.

• The ability to wean users from insecure passwords and take advantage of the effortless password generation feature is excellent.
