Easy to manage and maintain the password API but stability could be improved
I would advise doing a Proof of Concept first and then deciding accordingly because your use case might be simple. You can try out AWS Key Management or Azure Key Vault. They are different products. Do the POC and then decide what you need. Overall, I would rate the solution a six out of ten. No solution is a ten in my opinion.

Helps to build invoices but needs to improve the issue with bugs
I use the solution to build invoices for tenants or vendors.  The tool has bugs and breaks down at times.  I have been using Zoho Vault for a long time.  I would rate the tool's stability a seven out of ten.  I would rate Zoho Vault's scalability a seven out of ten. My company has 20-30 users…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is easy to use and to integrate."
"It is user-friendly and easy to implement from any application point."
"For me, the most valuable features include that it's easy to manage and maintain the password API for retrieving passwords and other things."
"The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is version control."
"The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is that it's an open source solution. Second, it's cloud agnostic, so it's very easy to maintain and control, which is why we prefer HashiCorp."
"The feature I find most beneficial in HashiCorp Vault is the secret engine. It integrates smoothly with many applications, making it easy to set up and implement quickly. This allows you to test it easily and see good results rapidly. When you integrate an internal API or application, it quickly manages that application's secrets."
"The most valuable feature of HashiCorp Vault is the management of tickets in the pipeline."
"The product is free and easy to use. It is well documented with an easy implementation process."
"I use the solution to build invoices for tenants or vendors."
 

Cons

"A drawback for some clients who have to be PCI compliant is that they still need to use and subscribe to an HSM (Hardware Security Module) solution."
"It would be helpful to have more advanced features."
"We could use more documentation, primarily to do with integrations."
"The solution's initial setup process is complicated."
"The product is complicated to install."
"The technical support was hard to get a hold of and lacking in service."
"The product needs to improve its customization. It should be also more like easy to plug and play."
"The documentation is very general; it should have more examples and more use cases."
"The tool has bugs and breaks down at times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It could do everything we wanted it to do and it is brilliant, but it is super pricey. To be fair to HashiCorp, we drove the price up with our requirements around resiliency. Because of the nature of our company, we don't really operate in the cloud."
"In my case, the open-source version works well. It's advisable for small to medium-scale organizations, but for large-scale organizations, you should go with the enterprise version."
"I am using the open-source version of Vault and I would have to buy a license if I want to get support."
"The solution's cost is reasonable."
"The AWS version is much cheaper than HashiCorp Vault."
"The product is expensive."
"Zoho Vault is cheap."
