Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is flexible.""The solution provides secure access to environments.""The vault and auditing capabilities are the most valuable feature because they include multiple reports that allow us to create our own reports.""The most valuable feature is the author's discovery of assets.""Delinea Privileged Access Service's UI part was very user-friendly for secure credential storage and management.""The reporting is excellent.""The privileged account management feature is what I like most.""This is a cloud-based application, which makes it very easy to deploy."

More Delinea Privileged Access Service Pros →

"It is user-friendly and easy to implement from any application point.""For me, the most valuable features include that it's easy to manage and maintain the password API for retrieving passwords and other things.""It is a good product to consider for companies who are looking to build on-premise or hybrid infrastructure.""The tool's dynamic rotation of the password credentials is good.""The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is the management of tickets in the pipeline.""It's stable. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten.""The product is free and easy to use. It is well documented with an easy implementation process.""The interface is very simple to navigate."

Cons
"There needs to be a notification when a password is near expiration.""The initial setup is a bit complex.""The integration with sync could be improved.""With Delinea Privileged Access Service, when installing the identity connectors to configure with AD, the configuration was not happening properly.""Although the interface is intuitive, it could be a little more user-friendly.""Enhancing the solution by incorporating additional features to make it comprehensive would be beneficial. It would be more convenient to have a complete package solution that consolidates all the features in one place, making it easier to manage. Currently, I am required to access two separate servers for reports, which could be avoided if all the necessary features were available in a single location. This would be highly advantageous for managing everything effectively.""It is difficult to integrate the product with other IT systems.""This solution needs better integration with third-party solutions because their ability to support other tools is very weak."

More Delinea Privileged Access Service Cons →

"It would be helpful to have more advanced features.""The product is complicated to install.""In terms of features, the only thing that I found a little bit hinky was that there was no revocation or deletion on the model we were using. Once in a financial year, a client interacts, and you pay for that client for the year. So, there are just little things like that in the pricing. There should be more clarity around the end of the key. I know there is no system like this. They all are the same. I tested Microsoft, Google, and some others, and none of them really want you to delete a key, which makes sense. You delete a key, and you lose everything that it has wrapped or encrypted, but it's actually just a language. Deletion isn't really deletion. It's really revocation, but overall, HashiCorp Vault ticked all the boxes for us, and I couldn't fault it.""There could be a plugin for the database to change the secret automatically. It would be an efficient feature for password security.""The documentation is very general; it should have more examples and more use cases.""The onboarding is a challenge. It should be more self-service, but it involves reviews and approvals.""The technical support was hard to get a hold of and lacking in service.""The product needs to improve its customization. It should be also more like easy to plug and play."

  • "The product comes at a very good price and it's quite competitive, although you need to buy add-ons for certain things."
  • "In addition to the license fees, we have to pay for the server and admin fees."

  • "I am using the open-source version of Vault and I would have to buy a license if I want to get support."
  • "The AWS version is much cheaper than HashiCorp Vault."
  • "It could do everything we wanted it to do and it is brilliant, but it is super pricey. To be fair to HashiCorp, we drove the price up with our requirements around resiliency. Because of the nature of our company, we don't really operate in the cloud."
  • "The solution's cost is reasonable."
  • "The product is expensive."
  • "In my case, the open-source version works well. It's advisable for small to medium-scale organizations, but for large-scale organizations, you should go with the enterprise version."

    Overview

    Delinea Privilege Service provides all of your IT administration teams with secure, granular access to infrastructure regardless of location, and without the hassles of a VPN.
    Secure browser-based access Authorized IT users launch management sessions for resources directly from the Privilege Service portal. Sessions use SSH and RDP protocols, and are always protected end-to-end.

    Access across organizational boundaries Privilege Service enables you to authenticate your IT users through Active Directory, LDAP Cloud Directory, or Google G Suite
    Directory. You can use one or any combination of these identity stores to grant granular access to employees, business partners and outside vendors.

    Grant access to specific resources Unlike a VPN, Privilege Service enables you to grant access to
    resources on a on a per-resource basis. This means that you can easily give your internal IT admins access to as much of your infrastructure as necessary, while limiting access by an outsourced
    team to only the servers and network hardware their business role or IT function requires.

    Access from any location Your IT admins can log in and securely access resources from any location that can reach the Privilege Service. For user logins outside the corporate network, you can require Delinea's built-in multi-factor authentication for security stronger than a user name and password.

    HashiCorp Vault Features

    • Data encryption: The solution is capable of encrypting and decrypting data, and will not store it. Organizations’ security personnel define their own encryption protocols; developers can store the encrypted data where they choose and are not obligated to design specific encryption processes.

    • Robust secrets: For systems such as AWS or SQL databases, Vault is able to generate secrets automatically. HashiCorp Vault is able to generate AWS keypairs with all the appropriate permissions when necessary, and when the approved time expires, will nullify them.

    • Secure secret storage: Any type of value or key secrets can be stored in the Vault. The Vault automatically encrypts the desired secrets before recording them into persistent storage, keeping them safe and secure. Users can record data using HCP Vault’s Consul service or disk, or choose from other options.

    • Nullification: Vault is able to nullify single secrets or all secrets from a particular group or specific user. This process is integral in securing systems in the event of an attack or inappropriate access.

    Reviews from Real Users

    The greatest benefit of HashiCorp is its ability to manage encryption on the fly. It provides encryption of data at rest, in use, in transit, on the fly, and linked with applications, which was really attractive. The lifecycle of a key is so easy to manage in terms of rotating, revoking, and issuing. They have different auth methods, and I tried all different auth methods. It is seamless.”- Project Manager at a comms service provider.

    “The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is that it's an open source solution. Second, it's cloud-agnostic, so it's very easy to maintain and control, which is why we prefer HashiCorp. “ - Mohamed A., Lead DevOps Engineer at Etisalat.
