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.

Helps me deal with a litany of access credentials, but the user interface is not well structured

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution speeds up the product development life cycle. That is, the time from the development of the product to the time to market is drastically reduced because of the CI/CD pipelines. You can have your code deployed within a matter of minutes."
"It allows me to run applications using these certificates without directly installing them."
"The product’s advantageous feature is integration."
"The platform has a valuable feature for seamless integration."
"The access policy feature helps secure content and resources."
"We use Azure Key Vault for securing secret connection streams, like API secrets, Azure services Secret Key, and AD Client Secret."
"The platform provides straightforward integration with most of the other Azure services."
"The most valuable feature is that you can retrieve user account details from the cloud."
"The most valuable feature is that it stores all of your user IDs and passwords, and unlocks them with just one master password."
 

Cons

"There's room for improvement in cross-platform compatibility."
"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."
"The voucher access policy can be improved by configuring it based on groups, rather than just applications or users."
"The initial setup could be less complex for first-time users."
"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."
"The integration with Thales HSM is complex and is not out-of-the-box. Uploading the keys was quite a tedious process."
"While it's very reliable in terms of stability, there's always room for improvement."
"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."
"The user interface is in need of improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the price of the solution a ten out of ten."
"Azure Key Vault is an affordable solution."
"Azure Key Vault is 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 price of the solution is reasonable for what we are using it for."
"It is less expensive compared to other competitors."
"The product is affordable, in my opinion."
"We use a pay-as-you-go license for the solution, which is not very expensive."
"The personal version is approximately $20 USD per year."
