We use Thycotic Secret Server.  So far, I'm a big fan.  Happy to share more
details directly.

Hi,

We are evaluating password vault and privileged access management
solutions at our university.  The primary goal is to house IT service
accounts and shared accounts with elevate privileges, but we are also
considered expanded future use such as possibly using such a solution to
manage access to critical systems, and manage short term privilege
escalation.  We’d also be able to use the tools to better audit the use of
these accounts.

After an initial set of product demos we are leaning towards Thycotic or
ManageEngine Password Manager Pro.  Do any of your schools have experience
with either of these products, and would you be willing to share how your
implementation and ongoing use have gone?

Thanks,

Chris
