Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Devolutions VLS as a way to gather information from different sources, so we don't have to find Server information in one place, password information in another place,and customer information in a third place. We also use it to easily log on to our servers without the need for typing passwords every time, which saves a lot of time. Lastly, it is a great secure way to store confidential information.

Pros

Multiple way to access your data
Easy server management
Of course easy and secure access/storage of your data

Cons

There is always (In all software) minor places that could use some tweaking but the way Devolutions listen to posts on the forum and implements this, I can't really pinpoint any major places for improvement.
Pricing. Not to say that it is overpriced, but for enthusiasts having to buy DVLS is pricey.
If there is one thing, the startup speed of the program. Maybe by selecting modules that you use or which you don't, but as it is open all day most day, it not that big of an issue.

Likelihood to Recommend

I feel that Devolutions VLS is a great product which makes storing of secrets a hassle free job, as you can access your data in so many ways. Whether you are a small team who wants easy access to devices or for storing passwords to your internet sites to large teams with many types of devices to manage, and many types of information to keep safe.

The great case of Devolutions Server

Rating: 10 out of 10

April 6, 2022

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Devolutions Server together with Remote Desktop Manager. It is used to have a website that uses RDM to store and manage important passwords for different projects. One of the main issues we had was that the employees used multiple password management tools to store critical passwords for customer's machines and interfaces. To put a stopper to this we came across Devolutions and their brilliant solutions. Now employees can structure their passwords per projects to get access to a specific password in no time. In the near future we also plan to "upgrade" the use of Devolutions Server/RDM to be connected to our project database. By doing this all employees will get a pre-structured map-structure with the projects they are working on. This way, the employees don't have to do it themselves.

Pros

Gives you the possibility to access your passwords and everything you store there anywhere you are and anytime you want to!
Uptime! This is relevant for all Devolutions products
AD connections. The fact that we can add over 300+ users (size of our company) without manually sending out a link for people to create their user profile.

Cons

Easier ways to adjust inherit or at least access directly into a file/folder. If I want to give a user access to a specific folder inside a project, I have to manually remove his access to other folders in that project.

Likelihood to Recommend

When you need a good and secure password management product that is always available then Devolutions Server is the one for you. It gives you access anywhere you are, anytime you want! It can be connected to AD which helps the ones setting it up for your company a whole lot easier.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Devolutions Server in conjunction with Remote Desktop Manager to connect to servers and devices on our network. Devolutions Server allows us to securely store our passwords, it integrates with Office 365 and can provide 2-factor authorization where we require it. We also love role-based access control! To be able to set access to different teams depending on what they need to do in the tool is fantastic!

Pros

Role based access control.
Active Directory Integration.
Remote Desktop Manager integration.
Password Vault.

Cons

We would like to see some additional reporting options.

Likelihood to Recommend

We love using Devolutions Server as our Privileged Access Management solution! We were able to use it initially for our Information Technology team and after that, we expanded the use to other teams outside of IT, like our Database Admins, etc. Integrating Devolutions Server with Remote Desktop Manager allows our Systems Admins & Engineers to support our environment without having to keep passwords in an Excel file or on Post-It notes! :)

Great Tool Needs Advancements

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I tried out the Password Server as a potential solution to our current password solution. I found that it was ok but did not address our needs as an organization. I was just trialing it because we use the RDM from Devolutions and I thought it was would be great to integrate the two. However, there are shortcomings that I did not like. For instance I could not copy the password as it was "hidden" in the password server.

Pros

Integration with Devolutions RDM
Cloud interface it a lot easier than having a specific application
Encryption of the password server is very good and secure for all the needs.

Cons

More options for importing password safes/vaults
Allow passwords to be copied without exposing the password in plaintext
Add an extension to web browsers for the password vault

Likelihood to Recommend

This does not suit our password scenarios since we have a weird password application that is older. It would help us since we have the RDM already. It would also be useful for companies that have a lot of people in their IT department. Since we have a small team it is not worth it to purchase the password server.
