Find out in this report how the two Microsoft Security Suite solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Has a great application firewall and we like the security."
"The price is one of the most important aspects of the product. It's quite affordable."
"I particularly appreciate its load-balancing capabilities as it allows us to manage multiple instances and support a global presence effectively."
"The web application firewall is a great feature."
"You can assign as many web application firewall policies as you want to the same instance of Front Door."
"I am impressed with the tool's integrations."
"Rules Engine is a valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is that you can implement resources globally. It does not depend on location and ability or something like that. This is to connect clients around the world."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Key Vault is the secret storage of data."
"The product's integration capabilities are good."
"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."
"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."
"We only use the basic features and those are the ones that have the ability to tie into the app, the secrets, and the passwords and encrypt them."
"The access policy feature helps secure content and resources."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the search for secrets feature that we use to store our passwords and connection strings."
"It is a managed service in Azure, you do not have to worry about security other than managing your own identities."
"There is room for improvement and they're working on it."
"There's a limitation on the amount of global rules we can add."
"We should be able to use Front Door defenders with multiple cloud vendors. Currently, they can be used only with the Azure cloud. Azure Front Door should also be able to do global load balancing and provide internal front door services. Microsoft should clearly define what Traffic Manager, Application Gateway, and Azure Front Door products do. These are similar products, and people get confused between these products."
"It lacks sufficient functionality."
"I'm responsible for the governance and cost control of Azure. I'm not a specialist in any products and therefore I couldn't really speak effectively to features that are lacking or missing."
"My suggestion for improvement would be to enhance the Data Export feature to include specific tables, particularly the Azure Diagnostics table."
"This is a relatively expensive solution."
"The product needs to improve its latency."
"The integration with Thales HSM is complex and is not out-of-the-box. Uploading the keys was quite a tedious process."
"They should improve its policies, which sometimes reapplied but don't sync properly between the Key vault and the role-based access. When I put some roles on the user side, it sometimes misses the end data to secure."
"The product must provide AI features."
"There's room for improvement in cross-platform compatibility."
"Users should be able to segregate the passwords."
"Azure needs to provide versions of Key Vault that are suitable for different sizes of companies."
"There are additional charges for data transfers. However, the pricing is mostly reasonable for the licensing overall."
"It needs to offer dynamic secrets management."
