Allows us to securely store our keys to prevent unauthorized access to unwanted users
The solution has improved our organization. It allows us to securely store our keys to prevent unauthorized access to unwanted users. We have applications that are stored in a large volume of data. If an unwanted user wants to access the application, it prompts for the key. The solution has positively affected our end-user experience because our applications are being accessed through APIs from different geographies, different locations, and different users. Azure is good at authenticating only the real users. It provides a good user experience because the authentication is done within seconds. Data is our top priority. All of the keys are secured in an encrypted way, so it provides a return on investment to our organization.

Very good synchronization, good stability and good scalability
We primarily use the solution for privacy for users The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature. It works really well. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful. There are a few aspects of management that could be improved, however, I don't use them so much. It would…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The centralized storage and secure storage are features we like."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Key Vault is the secret storage of data."
"The integration with other Azure services is one of the standout features for me. It allows us to use secrets from the Azure Key Vault seamlessly without direct interaction.Additionally, the ability to easily mark secrets for expiration and receive notifications is invaluable."
"It allows me to run applications using these certificates without directly installing them."
"There is advanced data protection available. We're working in a highly regulated environment, and this is essential to us."
"The GUI was quite easy for me to use."
"The solution's technical support is good. My company received support from Microsoft whenever we needed it."
"The security on offer seems to be quite good."
"The integration capabilities have been good."
"Dashlane's most valuable feature is Hotspot Shield, the VPN feature that allows you to connect securely to public wifi."
"The synchronization is the solution's most valuable feature. It works really well. The ability to have secure notes is also very helpful."
"I like the ability to share passwords without them being visible to other team members. The auto-fill capabilities are great too."
 

Cons

"Inability to access the solution on the phone."
"The solution's usage can be a little better from the user interface point of view."
"Azure needs to provide versions of Key Vault that are suitable for different sizes of companies."
"The platform's configuration process could be easier."
"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."
"If you check the capabilities of other key management services across Amazon, HashiCorp, and Google, there are features that Key Vault doesn't have. It could be the case that when you use Key Vault, you might be forced to use a third-party solution to get certain services. If those services could be included in Key Vault, there would be diminished reasons to go for a third-party key management system."
"While it is reliable, enhancing security and protection should always be the priority."
"We've experienced issues with configuration."
"The integration with the VPN feature could be smoother."
"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 cost, while decent, of course, could always be less."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no extra costs beyond the standard fees, beyond maybe data transfer charges. It's $0.025 per 10,000 data transactions, so it is quite cheap."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive."
"We use a pay-as-you-go license for the solution, which is not very expensive."
"Azure Key Vault is an affordable solution."
"It is a cheap option."
"The product costs much less compared to other vendors."
"I give the price of the solution a ten out of ten."
"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."
