What Problems Does Password Manager Pro Solve?

If you are an IT Administrator responsible for securely managing your IT infrastructure, check yourself:

Are you drowning in a pile of privileged passwords? Do you store administrative passwords in spreadsheets & flat files?
Do you find it difficult to track who has access to which accounts?
Do you laboriously logon to each application separately to periodically change passwords?

If yes, you certainly need Password Manager Pro!

Administrative/Privileged passwords are literally aplenty in enterprises. Servers, databases, switches, routers, firewalls and any other hardware or software, could have equally large number of administrative passwords. These passwords are insecurely stored in spreadsheets, text files and even as printouts and are shared by a group of administrators.

This traditional practice brings with it a host of issues such as:

Uncontrolled super-user privileges

No centralized control

Password Manager Pro solves all these problems by providing a secure system to store, administer, and share passwords.
