We performed a comparison between Azure Key Vault and Delinea Secret Server 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."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."
"Azure Key Vault allows only identified users to get the credentials and rotates the keys automatically."
"One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Azure Key Vault is its ease of use."
"It provides a secure and centralized location for managing and protecting sensitive information, making it an essential component for enhancing the security."
"The most valuable feature is that you can retrieve user account details from the cloud."
"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."
"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."
"I like the one-way hash, as well as the ability to store it in the cloud and access it from anywhere."
"Number one is the password vault; it's very good. Number two, they have a feature for remote desktops that are created on a per session basis, which is very good for security."
"The user interface is quite good. It's very straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is session monitoring."
"One of the features I find most valuable is workflow, which allows you to configure the solution to have multiple approvals."
"The surveillance is most valuable."
"I like that it is Windows-based. It is good that primarily, it is not an appliance. Some of the other applications in the space, such as a Quest Software CPAM or a Safeguard, are appliances, so you can't deploy the ends of them. With Thycotic, you can either install your Temporal Protection module physically in the VM host, or you can use BouncyCastle for high-security module capabilities."
"I really like the zero trust piece."
"Azure Key Vault is only available for Microsoft services, and it should be exposed to non-Microsoft cloud services, like GCP and Amazon."
"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."
"Currently, our company has to add the secrets manually, one by one, in Azure Key Vault, which is a tedious process."
"The slow response from the support team is one of the shortcomings of the solution that needs to be improved."
"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."
"If the region where the Azure Key Vault data center is hosted goes down, it would be a cumbersome task since our company will have to come up with a different Azure Key Vault and migrate all the secrets or keys into it."
"The integration with Thales HSM is complex and is not out-of-the-box. Uploading the keys was quite a tedious process."
"There's room for improvement in cross-platform compatibility."
"In many PAM tools, when users request a password checkout, they need to provide justification. However, in my experience across four organizations, nobody actually reads the justifications. Users can simply type anything and get the password. This becomes a risk and compliance issue. There needs to be continuous improvement in this area, focusing on problem identification and mitigation strategies."
"I would like to see the shadowing of ongoing terminal sessions (Remote Desktop Mirroring)."
"One thing that I wish they would do is to have a Kubernetes or container-based deployment supported, but they're not quite there yet. Containerization or support for containerization would be fantastic."
"An area for improvement in Delinea Secret Server is its integration with ICAP servers."
"I think that the main interface should integrate better with non-standard applications and clients, to connect with other systems."
"There could be tweaks here and there. For example, instead of going to one main function to do this and another main function to do that, the solution could remap the user interface so that a person only has to go through one function. The way that function branches off should make a bit more sense."
"I would like to see improvement with the integration with Azure Active Directory. This would mean that we can have support on multiple platforms such as Windows, Linux, and Mac."
"Improvements are needed in session management, behavioral analytics, and the reporting segment."
