operations Manager at a university with 10,001+ employees
Unified dashboards have streamlined device management and support has resolved issues faster
The best features HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) offers are probably the ease of usability, the observability, and the transparency. When I mention observability and transparency, those features help me in my work by keeping everything in my view; I don't need to juggle between different platforms, as everything serves as a one unified solution. About transparency, things are crystal clear and laid out openly, making it much easier for consumers like us who manage tons of devices all in one unified platform. HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) has positively impacted my organization by making the whole problem-solving process easier, as if there are any ticket issues, things get resolved more easily compared to our previous services. Issues get resolved much more quickly now, with most of these solutions being almost readily available, and if escalated to a support team, we get a quicker response time, as opposed to the previous solution which involved a lot of back and forth and consumed a lot more time.

Centralized access control has saved time and simplifies day-to-day identity management
I faced challenges earlier when I selected a role; it wasn't showing in any account it was associated with. It wasn't listing the account it was associated with, but later that feature came through and I am able to see that. When I select the role, this role is part of these many accounts or this particular account. I don't have anything else to add about the needed improvements at this point. I choose an eight out of ten because I think this technology world is evolving very rapidly and AI is stepping into the technology. AI growth is so fast, and I would think there should be some AI capabilities within IAM Health Cloud so that it would better serve the customers.

Cons

"It would be good if college or university students could explore HashiCorp Cloud Platform to a certain extent as an open-source solution."

"You need knowledge and experience to use Terraform, Vault, and other HashiCorp tools."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need to ensure some bug fixes."

"I don't have enough experience with HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) yet to have any recommendations for improvement at this time, but I would suggest speeding up the process."
