We performed a comparison between Azure Key Vault and LastPass based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Password Managers solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The platform provides straightforward integration with most of the other Azure services."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Azure Key Vault are the security and convenience of changing passwords in multiple places."
"Azure Key Vault is very affordable, with charges of less than a dollar for over ten thousand keys."
"There is advanced data protection available. We're working in a highly regulated environment, and this is essential to us."
"Its customer service is excellent."
"All its features are really valuable. It's really well thought-out. It's a complete turnkey solution that has all the concerns taken care of, such as access control and management. You can use it in infrastructure as code to create key vaults, APIs, PowerShells, CLIs, even Terraform."
"It is a managed service in Azure, you do not have to worry about security other than managing your own identities."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to store secrets securely and encrypt them. It is pretty easy and straightforward to use."
"The initial setup for this process is straightforward and extremely easy. It just works."
"Reduction in number of sensitive passwords stored insecurely on local systems."
"It's always hard to put a value on return on investment. You avoid one breach and it's paid for a million times over. We got a penetration test company internally, just to see how secure our network is, and there happened to be one bit of software that had been overlooked by an external company that managed it. It hadn't been upgraded so that managed to get them into the network. They would've been able to access through the test thing a file that we had previously. If that was a real-life scenario they would have been able to get into our network and get full access to our organization's passwords. If they did get in, they would have gotten access to the cloud. The ROI we see is that we are completely secured compared to what we had previously where there was a vulnerability."
"The shared folders is an important feature. It's the primary feature we use. Also, the ability for LastPass to autofill and hide the passwords, so we don't have to keep changing passwords every time a person leaves, is valuable."
"Tech support has been good. We haven't needed it much, because it is not a complex application. There is not that much you have to do with it."
"The most valuable feature is the liberty of keeping encrypted passwords and elevated information in a sealed vault."
"One feature that is really important to us is the ability to create secure notes."
"This product helps keep us secure."
"We've experienced issues with configuration."
"There's room for improvement in cross-platform compatibility."
"Users should be able to segregate the passwords."
"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."
"It is complicated to use different services and products along with Azure Key Vault."
"Sometimes it takes too long to retrieve the keys. The authentication process takes time."
"Azure needs to provide versions of Key Vault that are suitable for different sizes of companies."
"While it is reliable, enhancing security and protection should always be the priority."
"Its user interface should be better, and there should probably be more information about scalability."
"I also don't like the add-in for Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, because when you do the add-in, you can actually save that to your credentials in your IE, and the problem is, if I left my screen open, or any of the IT people leave their screen open someone could come up and access all their credentials in LastPass without having to put a password in within your own network. I don't like that functionality. We've banned that from any of our staff adding that as an add-in because we see that as a security risk."
"It is not super feature laden. It does not stand out versus the competition."
"I would like to be able to reduce the log out time of the session."
"I struggle a little bit with the mobile app. As a browser extension, it works really well, and we are able to get to what we need to. However, on the phone, it's not quite as easy to navigate."
"We have issues from time to time where, for some reason, it just keeps auto logging-out the user and then, the next day, they'll come in and it will work just fine."
"LastPass has a problem syncing the passwords to all of the users."
"The ability to set up an account expiration limit/date would be very useful."
