Cloud infrastructure at a tech vendor with 201-500 employees

Centralized credential management has transformed password rotation and streamlined compliance

1Password Business provides seamless integration with multiple services, AWS accounts, and enables easy management of the password vault and passwords. The automatic password rotation feature is particularly valuable, as rotated passwords are automatically updated to the 1Password Business vault. The time savings achieved through 1Password Business is significant, eliminating 10 to 15 hours of workforce time weekly and approximately 50 hours monthly. Previously, dedicated users were required to rotate passwords, share them with others, and notify stakeholders when passwords expired. This information no longer needs to be shared via email, and the time previously spent on these tasks has been substantially reduced.

With its extension, I can quickly access login information without opening a new browser window

Passportal's stability is okay. However, it goes down a little too often for me to recommend it to somebody else. I can only remember one or two outages with IT Glue. With Passportal, it gets frustrating when you need to reset a password for a client, and you have to put their global admin address in there because what you're doing requires admin privileges. But you can't get in there because Passportal isn't working, and the password might be a 48-character password. If it's down for five minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes — that's too long. It's a real inconvenience. It doesn't happen all the time, but I've been at this job two months, and it's probably happened three or four times. I don't like this. I'm used to having it right at my fingertips. I need access now. With the influx of tickets coming in and time management, it needs to be like that.
