What is BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access?

“BeyondTrust Offers Endpoint Security but Faces Training and Support Difficulties”

3.0
Dec 12, 2025
I have to knock 2 stars off on the overall rating. Training, ease of use, and accessing support in an easy manner are a BIG issue. Training would be the biggest. Some key points: limited live training, live training courses are scheduled more for people in India than the US. archived recordings, web based (self paced) training. Using the console can be daunting when implementing or learning the product. This prevents implementing the product quicker, getting people knowledgeable on the product.

BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access Likes & Dislikes

Like

One of the standout strengths is the session monitoring and recording capability. It Allows administrators to track privileged sessions in real time and review recordings later if needed, which is very useful for auditing and security reviews. Another strong feature is the controlled vendor access. Instead of giving direct network access, vendors can connect through the platform with proper authentication and limited permissions, which greatly improves overall security. The centralized management is also very helpful. Administrators can manage users, permissions, and access policies from a single interface, making it easier to enforce security policies and maintain visibility across different systems.

Like

The capabilities of BeyondTrust. Once we get it setup to the level we want, it will help secure our endpoints even better.

Like

The customer support provided was very good with multiple meetings taken place to assist on setting up and maintaining. Is very modifiable to fit into company needs and support seemed very agreeable for taking suggestions on what we wanted to see added to the product going forward.

Dislike

One issue we noticed is that the system can require a fair amount of ongoing administration. Managing users, access approvals and session policies needs regular attention to ensure everything stays aligned with security requirements. the user interface could also be more intuitive. Some settings and configuration options are not very easy to locate, which can slow down administrators when managing users or troubleshooting issues. Another challenge is the licensing cost. For organizations with many users or external vendors requiring access, The pricing can be increase quickly compared to some other competitors

Dislike

Training is limited. They don't happen enough. A lot are scheduled more for people in India than the US. Hard to learn. Getting support isn't as easy as other services or vendors provide.

Dislike

Was complex to set up and took many working hours to get into a place we were happy with, in addition does take continued maintenance hours to keep in proper order as users require access. This does translate into being complex to make additions with a required teaching session to bring in more administrators for the tool. We have also found the dashboards/interfaces we work with lacking in additional functionality to allow us to really use the tool to full ability.
