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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Azure Key Vault is its ease of use."
"The solution's most valuable features are reusability and safety."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Key Vault is the secret storage of data."
"The solution's technical support is good. My company received support from Microsoft whenever we needed it."
"We use Azure Key Vault to store secrets."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to store secrets securely and encrypt them. It is pretty easy and straightforward to use."
"The solution uses the encryption technique to store the secret information data that uses EPCE. There is also one feature that monitors Azure Key Vault."
"Its customer service is excellent."
"The support from the customer service team is good, they respond on time, and they always seem to be quite knowledgeable."
"It is user-friendly. Someone who doesn’t have a lot of IT knowledge can work with the product easily."
"It is very safe and we haven't had any security issues."
"The tool is secure, safe, reliable, and easy to use."
"The security provided is very enhanced and it does a great job of keeping passwords safe."
 

Cons

"Better integration with other third-party cloud providers, such as AWS and GCP, should be there. That's something I expect from a Microsoft-built product."
"I can see that other people are doing the infrastructure as code, they are able to easily manage and cycle their passwords as needed using their own interface they created. It would be nice if Microsoft provided more guidance in that area."
"Currently, our company has to add the secrets manually, one by one, in Azure Key Vault, which is a tedious process."
"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."
"It is complicated to use different services and products along with Azure Key Vault."
"While the solution already does a great job of managing keys, the solution could probably look at maybe expanding more into mobile devices and endpoints."
"We encountered a few problems where Azure had infrastructure problems like the DMS."
"I would rate the stability of Microsoft Azure Key Vault an eight out of ten. We use the solution in the data science field. If there is some outage, we did not notice any prolonged outage which would affect our business significantly while working with it."
"It's a pretty technical solution. It's designed for more technical people."
"The user interface could be improved and made more user friendly."
"There is room for improvement in making the UI more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has good pricing."
"It is a cheap option."
"The product is affordable, in my opinion."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The product is inexpensive."
"The price of the solution is reasonable for what we are using it for."
"Currently, the tool's monthly licensing costs are around 1,800 USD for all the environments combined, including the production and pre-production environments."
"The pricing is reasonable and flexible, especially for those already using Microsoft Azure Cloud services. There is a cost associated with retrieval and storage, which is a few dollars. Otherwise, the price can be customized according to requirements, such as how many keys need to be stored."
"On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate the pricing of this solution as a five."
