CyberArk alternative

Enterprise PAM.
Without the enterprise drag.

Monopam covers what privileged access actually needs — encrypted vault, session recording, rotation, just-in-time approvals — inside a platform that also handles IAM and IGA. Deployed in days, priced per concurrent session, support included.

Fully-loaded trial tenant in five minutes. No credit card, no sales gate.

One platform, not a product family

CyberArk grew through acquisitions; the seams show in consoles, SKUs, and renewals. Monofor was built as one platform: privileged access, identity, and governance share a console and a data model.

Pricing that matches usage

PAM is licensed per concurrent session — not per admin, per target, or per vaulted credential. Identity starts at $4 per user per month, published right on our pricing page.

Days to production, not quarters

Browser-based RDP and SSH mean no agent fleet to roll out. Resource discovery pulls from AD, Azure, and AWS. Most teams record their first privileged session within a week.

Side by side

Monofor vs CyberArk,
feature by feature.

Where it matters for day-to-day privileged access, the platforms are at parity — the differences are in scope, pricing model, and how much operational weight you take on.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is Monopam a full CyberArk replacement?
For the vast majority of teams — vaulting credentials, brokering and recording privileged sessions, rotating passwords, and enforcing just-in-time access — yes, and at a fraction of the operational complexity. Organizations with deep application-to-application secrets-management estates should evaluate their specific workflows during the trial.
How is migration from CyberArk handled?
Credentials are imported into the Monopam vault, and resources are discovered automatically from Active Directory, Azure, and AWS. Because Monopam is agentless for session access (browser-based RDP/SSH), there is no endpoint rollout to coordinate.
What does per-concurrent-session pricing mean in practice?
You license the number of privileged sessions running at the same time — not the number of admins, servers, or vaulted credentials. Most teams run far fewer concurrent sessions than they have administrators, which is why this model typically undercuts per-user PAM pricing significantly.
Do I have to buy the whole platform?
No. Monosign (IAM), Monopam (PAM), and Monosync (IGA) are licensed as modules. Start with PAM and add identity or governance later — they share one console and data model when you do.
Can I run it in my own datacenter?
Yes. Monofor deploys self-hosted on your infrastructure or as SaaS — same product, same price. Data-sovereignty and regulated environments are a core design target, not an afterthought.
