Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product is easy to use and is inexpensive.""It's highly scalable, so I'd rate it a ten out of ten.""The most valuable feature of AWS Secrets Manager is its seamless integration with various AWS services.""Integrating with other services was straightforward, especially within the AWS environment.""The most valuable feature is security.""All our workloads are running on AWS, so integration with our workload is much easier on AWS Secrets Manager than going with another solution such as Thycotic.""The API is fine and works well.""The solution is very scalable."

"Keeper has strong security features.""Can create folders for specific types of information (i.e., work, personal, and school).""A useful solution for storing encryption keys, programming and developing a SaaS platform.""Stronger passwords are being used across the board in our organization.""It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts.""Auto login across platforms allows for no copying and pasting.""I like a couple of things about this solution. Being able to share passwords with other people is valuable. You can see if the information is out on the dark web and whether you have weak passwords and the last time they were changed. You could also have the 2FA or MFA codes embedded in the application so that you don't have to use your phone or any other 2FA device, which is something very important.""Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."

Cons
"We occasionally have problems with rate limits, although that is a problem more generally with AWS.""There is a need for better environmental implementation, such as having a security fund as a solution.""If you don't have enterprise support, then you will not be able to get through to them to get the help. It is not only applicable to AWS Secrets Manager. It is also applicable to any service on AWS.""There is room for improvement in the pricing model.""The solution's initial setup process is complicated.""There is room for improvement in terms of integrating with certain other platforms.""If you add one more layer of security to AWS Secrets Manager, even the programmer will not be able to see the secrets.""The price of the solution could improve."

More AWS Secrets Manager Cons →

"API possible needs improvement. Although, this feature is for enterprises which need more then the usual usage.""Needs to provide an API to be integrated with the information systems and offer secure file hosting service with sharing and editing capabilities.""The organization of items needs improvement. For example, when I log onto the cloud version as well, everything is shown on my folder. It is hard to differentiate between files and documents in my list of items I have stored inside.""The password rotation feature could be improved.""The user experience and the mobile app could be improved.""If you purchase the premium, then after the subscription expires, you cannot edit your passwords any longer, even if you could before you purchased the paid subscription.""Maybe a sort of category organizer to help with organizing passwords for different things, such as banking, medical, shopping, and school.""Rearranging folders via drag/drop functionality would be very helpful."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I don't believe there is a license cost for the solution."
  • "We've observed that AWS Secrets Manager pricing is based on a per-secret-per-month model. As a result, we prefer to divide our secrets into individual pieces to increase security and grant specific access permissions to certain secrets, systems, or individuals. However, this approach results in higher costs. Therefore, we have been exploring ways to combine our secrets into groups to reduce expenses and simplify management. Nonetheless, we acknowledge that this issue may not be related to the secret manager's functionality."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "We purchase a monthly license for the product."
  • "The cost is somewhat high."

  • "The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
  • "Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
  • "Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
  • "It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
  • "Just buy the yearly subscription."
  • "Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
  • "ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
  • "We chose their optional annual subscription; I believe we paid monthly — I thought it was a good deal."
