Simplifies and secures secret management within the AWS ecosystem, though it could enhance integration capabilities with external platforms
I use it for handling any confidential tasks or operations within my systems. Typically, we rely on the AWS Identity and Access Management center to set specific rules. In most cases, systems autonomously manage the secrets. While there are admins who can handle secrets from the console, we aim to…

An easy-to-use tool that offers its users strong security on the password management front
In my company, we use the solution's dictionary rule to see the availability of passwords or for the integration to other external systems with two-factor authentication The most valuable feature of the solution is that it's a standard product to help our customers implement a solution and to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All our workloads are running on AWS, so integration with our workload is much easier on AWS Secrets Manager than going with another solution such as Thycotic."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Secrets Manager is the ability to keep data secret and assign access permissions to people to grant or restrict access."
"The product is easy to use and is inexpensive."
"The most valuable feature is usability, as it is quite user-friendly."
"Integrating with other services was straightforward, especially within the AWS environment."
"It's highly scalable, so I'd rate it a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Secrets Manager is its seamless integration with various AWS services."
"The most valuable feature is the management of credentials."
"It is an absolutely scalable solution...The product is easy to install."
"One Identity Password Manager is a stable solution."
"It is extremely simple to integrate with various systems, including OTP, passwords, and so on because everything is based on our environment."
"The solution is very customizable."
"It does have advantages over the other products that we are seeing. Other products don't have the out-of-the-box OTP option, whereas One Identity Password Manager has the out-of-the-box OTP option. It also has a cloud-based solution for generating OTPs. So, the customers can either opt for their own SMS gateway, or they can use the One Identity OTP option where they don't have to have an SMS gateway. With other products, customers must have their own SMS gateway."
"It provides seamless integration with different types of password modules like temporary access passcode and MFA."
"What I found most valuable in One Identity Password Manager is its easy use. It's a flexible solution. It also supports many languages, including Arabic."
 

Cons

"The price of the solution could improve."
"If you add one more layer of security to AWS Secrets Manager, even the programmer will not be able to see the secrets."
"It would be good if the AWS Secrets Manager were more customizable."
"An area for improvement in AWS Secrets Manager could be expanding integration options beyond AWS services."
"There is room for improvement in terms of integrating with certain other platforms."
"There is a need for better environmental implementation, such as having a security fund as a solution."
"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."
"The sidecar feature has room for improvement."
"If there is a self-service option to update the mobile number, it will be much more useful."
"The software is complex on the backend, and there isn't enough documentation."
"An area for improvement in One Identity Password Manager is the management gap since Quest is no longer under Dell, and One Identity is under Quest. The management gap resulted in poor support, which needs improvement."
"I would like it to be more secure in terms of password storage."
"One Identity Password Manager could improve the integration with other technology, it is complex for integrating. There needs to be more connectors or adapters. There is limited out-of-the-box customization."
"The UI needs improvement to match any other standard password manager because it's not very intuitive right now."
"The improvement required is an increase in the number of people who manage the product's support team."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"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."
"I don't believe there is a license cost for the solution."
"We purchase a monthly license for the product."
"The cost is somewhat high."
"Its price is on the cheaper side. It has a perpetual license, and everything is included in the license. You only have to pay separately for the SMS gateway or the OTP part."
"It is not that expensive, as far as I recall. It was approximately $1.50 USD per user or something like that."
"The price of One Identity Password Manager is average. There are other solutions that are more expensive, such as ARCON and others that are less expensive."
"Though the solution's price is reasonable, it depends on the number of users operating at the customer's end."
"The licensing for One Identity Password Manager depends on the customer's requirement. For example, it could be one year, or it could be three years. In general, One Identity Password Manager is not an expensive product. Pricing for it is competitive."
