ARCON Reviews, Ratings & Features 2026 | Gartner Peer Insights

Gartner defines privileged access management (PAM) as tools that provide an elevated level of technical access through the management and protection of accounts, credentials and commands, which are used to administer or configure systems and applications. PAM tools — available as software, SaaS or hardware appliances — manage privileged access for both people (system administrators and others) and machines (systems or applications). Gartner defines five distinct tool categories for PAM tools: privileged account and session management (PASM), privilege elevation and delegation management (PEDM), secrets management, cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) and remote PAM (RPAM). Privileged access is access beyond the normal level granted to both human and machine accounts. It allows users to override existing access controls, change security configurations, or make changes affecting multiple users or systems. As privileged access can create, modify and delete IT infrastructure, along with company data contained in that infrastructure, it presents catastrophic risk. Managing privileged access is thus a critical security function for every organization and requires a specific set of procedures and tools. PAM tools focus on either privileged accounts or privileged commands.

Manager, Customer Service and Support

We have been using Arcon PAM in our environment for privilege account management, session monitoring, password vaulting, & privileged access control activities. From an operations & security perspective, the product has helped improve visibility and control over privileged accounts across servers and critical systems. Linux/Unix privilege management still needs improvement compared to Windows related capabilities. Overall, the solution works well for core PAM requirements, but proper planning & tuning are needed during deployment and day-to-day administration.

We use Privilege Access Management and User Access Governance - The single sign-on capability and ability to allow any connector is flexible and helps us. We have also evaluated their enterprise Password Vault product and will integrate into our system in next 1 year. 

It Security & Risk Management Associate

1. It helps enforce strict control over administrative access and reduces risks related to shared credentials, unauthorized access and insider misuse. It is particularly valuable for organizations that need strong governance and audit readiness.
2. It allows secure storage of passwords, controlled access to critical systems and monitoring of user activity. 
3. What has not worked as smoothly is the initial setup and integration effort. Deploying the solution in a complex environment can take time, especially when connecting multiple applications, servers and legacy systems.
