We like that that the myAccess product is currently on-prem which allows us to understand it better and tune it to our environment when needed. It also allows us to troubleshoot easier when we don't have to rely on a support team that isn't in the same time zone as we are.
We are able to mitigate fixes or work arounds on-the-fly rather than relying on and waiting for the next patch or update to the system.
IU is functional and administration is extensive for support within the corporation.
We are looking forward to having the legacy system upgraded to something newer in 2027. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The concern about patches breaking usual functionality is an ongoing issue, but as this version has reached EOL, a major upgrade is being planned and should help with performance and enhancements to the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thank you for the detailed review. We really appreciate the context you’ve shared, especially around your myAccess deployment in a utilities/NERC environment.
It’s great to hear that the on-premise model has given your team the control and flexibility needed to troubleshoot, tune, and adapt the system in real time. That level of ownership is especially important in regulated environments like NERC/CIP, where visibility, auditability, and responsiveness are critical. We’re also glad Guardian has helped expand beyond documentation into broader physical and electronic access governance, keeping access aligned with compliance requirements.
We understand your decision to limit patching as the current version approaches end-of-life, and your focus on stability during that period. Planning the transition to a newer version, whether on-prem, hybrid, or cloud, is an important next step, and we’d welcome the opportunity to support you in evaluating the best path forward based on your operational and compliance needs.
If helpful, our team can work with you to review upgrade options, discuss deployment models, and ensure a smooth transition that maintains the control and visibility you rely on today.
Thank you again for your partnership and for sharing your experience.
