Simplifies and secures secret management within the AWS ecosystem, though it could enhance integration capabilities with external platforms

AWS Secrets Manager has streamlined our processes for managing secrets and their lifecycle. We typically handle everything through automation, following a predefined approach. When we undertake our developments, we seamlessly integrate the process into our workflows. Essentially, our secrets require minimal intervention; they are automatically managed by the system itself. This ensures smooth operations without the need for manual intervention. We integrate this tool with various AWS services, utilizing AWS Secrets Manager specifically for AWS resources. Any application, service, or deployment within AWS leverages Secrets Manager whenever it requires access to it.

Helps with password management and sharing

The tool's setup was easy and we have deployed it on the cloud. The deployment was quick and we completed it in less than a week. We have two teams one in the US and another in India. We first implemented Keeper in the US, got feedback, and then implemented it in India. The overall deployment took about four months to complete.

"The possibility of assigning information to different groups and individuals has been the most valuable."

More Keeper pros

Cons

"We occasionally have problems with rate limits, although that is a problem more generally with AWS."

"The price of the solution could improve."

"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."

"It would be good if the AWS Secrets Manager were more customizable."

"The solution's initial setup process is complicated."

"There is a need for better environmental implementation, such as having a security fund as a solution."

"If you add one more layer of security to AWS Secrets Manager, even the programmer will not be able to see the secrets."

"If you don't have enterprise support, then you will not be able to get through to them to get the help. It is not only applicable to AWS Secrets Manager. It is also applicable to any service on AWS."

More AWS Secrets Manager cons

"If you purchase the premium, then after the subscription expires, you cannot edit your passwords any longer, even if you could before you purchased the paid subscription."

"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."

"The user experience and the mobile app could be improved."

"It would be nice to see this great tool integrate with other tools out there."

"I would love it if you didn't have to re-authenticate when you start up a new browser."

"API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage."

"Maybe a sort of category organizer to help with organizing passwords for different things, such as banking, medical, shopping, and school."

"Ability to store 'files' from IOS & Android devices. You can store pics from these devices currently. Most file formats can be uploaded from PC's/Macs"

More Keeper cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."

"We purchase a monthly license for the product."

"I don't believe there is a license cost for the solution."

"The cost is somewhat high."

"We've observed that AWS Secrets Manager pricing is based on a per-secret-per-month model. As a result, we prefer to divide our secrets into individual pieces to increase security and grant specific access permissions to certain secrets, systems, or individuals. However, this approach results in higher costs. Therefore, we have been exploring ways to combine our secrets into groups to reduce expenses and simplify management. Nonetheless, we acknowledge that this issue may not be related to the secret manager's functionality."

"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"

"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."

"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."

"Its price is reasonable."

"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."

"Just buy the yearly subscription."

"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."

"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
