Secret storage and certificate management have been streamlined
I am not on the developer's end. I am primarily the main infrastructure person. I'm not sure what needs improvement. Sometimes, we face issues that the support team is not aware of, necessitating investigation from their end. For example, one of our certificates was not getting deployed, and during that time, the support team was unsure and had to connect with the back-end team for assistance. Improvements can be made in this area, however, it's understandable that not everything can be perfect.

Easy to set up, simple to use, and quite secure
We primarily use the solution for a personal secondary backup The solution is easy to use. So far, the performance has been good.  It offers a very easy setup. The integration capabilities have been good. It's very stable and quite secure.  I cannot speak to any particular areas of improvement.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Azure Key Vault allows only identified users to get the credentials and rotates the keys automatically."
"It helps me increase my security posture and assists with regulatory and compliance requirements."
"The integration management of access to Key Vault is beneficial for me."
"Considering the features provided by the product, I would say that the solution is available at a good price point."
"I am satisfied with the product overall."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Key Vault is the secret storage of data."
"It allows me to run applications using these certificates without directly installing them."
"The product's integration capabilities are good."
"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members. The auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature. It works really well. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
 

Cons

"The solution does not allow you to integrate with XML parties if it is not inside Azure itself."
"Azure needs to provide versions of Key Vault that are suitable for different sizes of companies."
"The skill level of the support staff is also questionable."
"The solution could be cheaper."
"The big problem with Azure Key Vault is key rotation. We haven't found a good way to synchronize the credentials between the databases and Key Vault."
"While it is reliable, enhancing security and protection should always be the priority."
"They should add a key vault feature for the databases temporarily integrated into hybrid clouds."
"I would like more code examples."
"It would be nice to have the solution localized in Europe. Dashlane is an American company. It's controlled by American laws and regulations that allows the American government to have full access to my data with Dashlane. That's why I am leaving Dashlane, because we can't accept such an important function in American control."
"The integration with the VPN feature could be smoother."
"The cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."
"There should also be an easier way to be able to transfer user data to other users who have kind of left the company."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is quite reasonable and support is included, although premium support is available for an additional fee."
"The pricing is decent. It has a pretty low price. It is a straightforward cost based on usage."
"The product is affordable, in my opinion."
"The cost of the Azure Key Vault is very high and the pricing model is based on the number of keys that you store and retrieve."
"I give the price of the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product is inexpensive."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Key Vault, like every Azure service, has a cost associated with it, but you don't have to spend thousands of dollars to spin up an environment to build a key management system. It's already there."
"It is a little bit on the expensive side."
