Independent user data highlights KeeperPAM’s top-ranked performance in customer satisfaction, usability and vendor relationships

CHICAGO, July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Keeper Security, the leading zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security and Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform, today announces its leadership in a recent comparison report analyzing independent, user-validated data from Info-Tech Research Group’s SoftwareReviews platform. KeeperPAM emerged as the leader among top PAM providers, significantly outperforming competitors across critical satisfaction and sentiment metrics.

Keeper scored highest among all evaluated vendors in key categories, including 93% likeliness to recommend, an 87% fair cost-to-value rating and a +89 net emotional footprint.The company also led implementation metrics, including 85% ease of implementation and 85% ease of IT administration.Keeper achieved an 81% satisfaction rating for usability and intuitiveness, reinforcing its commitment to user-friendly, intuitive design.

Privileged access management has become a foundational component of enterprise cybersecurity as organizations contend with increasingly sophisticated identity-driven threats. As network environments expand across cloud, hybrid and remote infrastructures, managing privileged credentials and access pathways has grown more complex – and more critical than ever.

At the same time, user sentiment data gathered from SoftwareReviews’ platform highlights a growing disconnect in enterprise software. While 92% of organizations renew their existing software investments, only 64% would recommend their providers. This satisfaction gap underscores the importance of selecting a technology partner that delivers, not only strong functionality, but also long-term value, usability and customer support.

“Organizations are rethinking how they approach PAM as identity-based attacks continue to rise and infrastructure becomes more complex,” said Darren Guccione, CEO and Co-founder of Keeper Security. “This recognition from SoftwareReviews reflects our commitment to delivering a modern, unified platform that prioritizes both security and user experience. We built KeeperPAM to eliminate the friction, cost and complexity of disparate, legacy solutions while giving organizations complete visibility and control over privileged access.”

Why Keeper Stands Out
The SoftwareReviews report highlights Keeper’s consistent performance across the factors that matter most to enterprise buyers, demonstrating leadership in customer satisfaction, product capabilities and vendor partnership.

Customer Experience and Vendor Relationship: Keeper earned the highest Net Emotional Footprint (+89) score among all evaluated vendors, reflecting strong customer trust, transparency and ongoing engagement. Users report high satisfaction across service experience, product innovation and vendor responsiveness.Ease of Deployment and Time-to-Value: Keeper led in implementation-related metrics, including ease of deployment, data integration and IT administration. Organizations benefited from a streamlined onboarding process that reduces operational disruption and accelerates time-to-value.User Experience and Adoption: High usability scores reinforce Keeper’s focus on intuitive design. A seamless user experience reduces training requirements, drives adoption across teams and enables employees to work more efficiently and securely.Feature Depth and Platform Consolidation: Keeper outperformed competitors in both feature breadth and quality, delivering a comprehensive set of capabilities within a single platform. This unified approach eliminates the need for multiple point solutions, reducing complexity and improving operational efficiency.

KeeperPAM is a modern, cloud-native privileged access management platform built on a zero-trust, zero-knowledge architecture. The platform consolidates enterprise password management, secrets management, privileged session management and endpoint privilege management into a single unified solution. With AI-powered threat detection, real-time monitoring and automated credential rotation, KeeperPAM provides organizations with complete visibility and control over privileged access. Its architecture enforces least-privilege and just-in-time access across all users, devices and infrastructure, helping organizations reduce their attack surface, strengthen compliance and defend against modern cyber threats.

The KeeperPAM solution has fueled tremendous growth for Keeper, with the company recently named the second fastest-growing cybersecurity software provider in the world, trailing only Google in the Gartner analysis. Keeper achieved a year-over-year global revenue growth rate of 53.42% in 2025, which was 3.45x greater than the overall market average of 15.50%.

We paid a quarterly dividend of $202 million and repurchased $43 million of the Company’s shares within the quarter, leaving approximately $448 million remaining as of June 27, 2026 in the $500 million share repurchase program authorized through December 2028.

All rights reserved.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes the following measures defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as non-GAAP financial measures: pro forma effective tax rate, pro forma net income (earnings) per share and free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, limiting the usefulness of the measures for comparison with other companies. Management believes providing investors with an operating view consistent with how it manages the Company provides enhanced transparency into the operating results of the Company, as described in more detail by category below. 

The tables below provide reconciliations between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures.

Pro forma effective tax rate

The Company’s income tax expense is occasionally impacted by discrete tax items that are not reflective of income tax expense incurred as a result of current period earnings. Therefore, management believes the effective tax rate and income tax provision before the effect of certain discrete tax items are important measures to permit investors’ consistent comparison between periods. In the first half of 2026 and 2025 there were no such discrete tax items identified.

Pro forma net income (earnings) per share

Management believes net income (earnings) per share before the impact of foreign currency gains or losses and certain discrete income tax items, as discussed above, is an important measure to permit a consistent comparison of the Company’s performance between periods.

Free cash flow

Management believes free cash flow is an important liquidity measure because it represents the amount of cash provided by operations that is available for investing and defines it as operating cash flows less capital expenditures for property and equipment. Management believes excluding purchases of property and equipment provides a better understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s operations and allows more accurate comparisons of the Company’s results between periods. This metric may also be useful to investors but should not be considered in isolation as it is not a measure of cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. The most comparable GAAP measure is net cash provided by operating activities.

Forward-looking Financial Measures

The forward-looking financial measures in our 2026 guidance provided above do not consider the potential future net effect of foreign currency exchange gains and losses, certain discrete tax items and any other impacts that may be identified as pro forma adjustments in calculating the non-GAAP measures described above. 

The estimated impact of foreign currency gains and losses cannot be reasonably estimated on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and low visibility with respect to non-operating foreign currency exchange gains and losses and the related tax effects of such gains and losses. The impact on diluted net income per share of foreign currency gains and losses, net of tax effects, was $0.00 per share for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2026.

At this time, management is unable to determine whether or not significant discrete tax items will occur in fiscal 2026, estimate the impact of any such items, or anticipate the impact of any other events that may be considered in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures.
