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

"The most valuable features are ease of use and enabling our clients to manage keys."
"The best feature is the integrity of the .NET applications in our company."
"Among the features that have helped improve our security posture are storing secrets in a secure location to create a trusted situation, trusted resources, and incorporating identity access management so that we know who has access to what."
"The access policy feature helps secure content and resources."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Key Vault is the secret storage of data."
"We use Azure Key Vault to store secrets."
"The security on offer seems to be quite good."
"A high level of security."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members. The auto-fill capabilities are great too."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature. It works really well. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
 

Cons

"The skill level of the support staff is also questionable."
"Currently, our company has to add the secrets manually, one by one, in Azure Key Vault, which is a tedious process."
"While it's very reliable in terms of stability, there's always room for improvement."
"I would suggest making the user interface a bit more friendly."
"It is complicated to use different services and products along with Azure Key Vault."
"Users should be able to segregate the passwords."
"The initial setup could be less complex for first-time users."
"Azure Key Vault takes time to fetch values while integrating it with the code written in .NET format."
"There should also be an easier way to be able to transfer user data to other users who have kind of left the company."
"The integration with the VPN feature could be smoother."
"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 cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use a pay-as-you-go license for the solution, which is not very expensive."
"It is less expensive compared to other competitors."
"The price of the product is okay for my company."
"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."
"The product costs much less compared to other vendors."
"The product has good pricing."
"Azure Key Vault is an affordable solution."
"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."
"It is a little bit on the expensive side."
