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

"We use Azure Key Vault to store secrets."
"A high level of security."
"Considering the features provided by the product, I would say that the solution is available at a good price point."
"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."
"The platform has a valuable feature for seamless integration."
"I would say it's granular controller who can access them."
"Technical support is helpful."
"It provides a secure and centralized location for managing and protecting sensitive information, making it an essential component for enhancing the security."
"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."
"One Identity Password Manager is a stable solution."
"It is an absolutely scalable solution...The product is easy to install."
"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 is extremely simple to integrate with various systems, including OTP, passwords, and so on because everything is based on our environment."
"It provides seamless integration with different types of password modules like temporary access passcode and MFA."
 

Cons

"One of my previous clients was one of the big banks here in the Netherlands and the EU courts have stated that Microsoft Azure Key Vault is not, according to their perspective, secure due to the fact that Microsoft has access to Key Vault."
"The voucher access policy can be improved by configuring it based on groups, rather than just applications or users."
"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."
"There are additional charges for data transfers. However, the pricing is mostly reasonable for the licensing overall."
"The integration with Thales HSM is complex and is not out-of-the-box. Uploading the keys was quite a tedious process."
"One area for improvement is the notification system for secret expiration. It would be beneficial if the service could handle this more autonomously, eliminating the need for additional integrations."
"The product must provide AI features."
"I would like more code examples."
"If there is a self-service option to update the mobile number, it will be much more useful."
"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."
"I would like it to be more secure in terms of password storage."
"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."
"The improvement required is an increase in the number of people who manage the product's support team."
"The software is complex on the backend, and there isn't enough documentation."
"The UI needs improvement to match any other standard password manager because it's not very intuitive right now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Azure is cheaper than CyberArk... CyberArk is good, but it's quite expensive."
"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."
"The cost of the Azure Key Vault is very high and the pricing model is based on the number of keys that you store and retrieve."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive."
"Azure Key Vault is expensive."
"We use a pay-as-you-go license for the solution, which is not very expensive."
"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 has good pricing."
"Though the solution's price is reasonable, it depends on the number of users operating at the customer's end."
"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."
"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 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."
