Hello,

We also utilize Thycotic Secret Server, which has worked great for us.  We have been a proud customer since 2008, and 
the product has evolved over the years.  We are running Enterprise Edition.  Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Thanks,

You can put Husson University down as another happy Thycotic Secret Server customer - we've been using Professional for 
about 3 years. Very Very easy setup

quite robust and will suit most of the requirements you mentioned – we recently upgraded to Professional for some 
additional functionality. Implementation was very easy and took virtually no time to get up and running. Feel free to 
send me an email directly if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

Subject: [SECURITY] Password Vault Solutions

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
