Akeyless Platform Reviews & Product Details - Page 3

My favorite Akeyless Vault feature is probably the ability to dynamically generate secrets on demand. This allows me to provide access to sensitive data to my team members or applications without actually storing the raw secrets in plaintext. Instead, the secrets are generated on-the-fly when they are needed and are only accessible for a limited time. This helps to reduce the risk of secrets being leaked or compromised, as they are only accessible for a short period of time. It also helps to streamline the process of providing access to sensitive data, as I don't have to manually manage and rotate secrets as frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have barely any complaints! Honestly, if we could integrate the support with our organization's slack channel I think I would have absolutely zero issues with Akeyless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, I find Akeyless Vault to be an essential tool for managing secrets and sensitive data in a secure and centralized way. It allows me to focus on building and deploying applications, while knowing that my secrets are being managed in a safe and secure manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is sort off the same for its competitors too, but because it is a centralized tool, it can become a single point of failure in the event of a loss or outage. This can be mitigated by implementing proper disaster recovery and backup procedures, but it is something that organizations need to be aware of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like multiple aspects of the platform:

Supports importing secrets. I have imported from AWS secrets manager and Kubernetes Secrets.

Supports temporary/dynamic secrets that are time limited and expire after a certain time period which is super helpful for testing new applications.

Certificates (specifically PKI and SSH) can be stored securely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost of the platform. Unfortunately, our setup with Akeyless Vault was delayed because I needed to seek manager approval for the spend. The annual cost came out to just above the approval threshold. While this isn't a problem with Akeyless Vault itself, it's not the inexpensive solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Akeyless Vault's platform is extremely user-friendly. It has a simple interface that is easy to navigate. Additionally, Akeyless Vault integrates well with other environments. I use it every day to manage secrets and to access sensitive data in multiple different environments. I think this is probably my favorite feature, as I appreciate agnostic tools.

Another thing I like about Akeyless Vault is that it is very secure. It uses industry-standard encryption algorithms to protect data. Additionally, Akeyless Vault has a robust access control system that allows me to control the organization members that have access to different secrets. There is also an audit trail.

Lastly, I appreciate that Akeyless Vault is constantly being updated with new features and security enhancements. The team behind Akeyless Vault seems committed to making it the best product it can be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s not a dislike, perse, but I do think that there should be more documentation provided. I get that it’s a SaaS and cloud solutions typically have less documentation, but I do believe that comprehensive documentation is important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many things to like about Akeyless Vault. First, it is a very powerful tool that can help manage secrets and sensitive data. It is also easy to use and has a user-friendly interface. Additionally, Akeyless Vault integrates well with other tools and systems, making it a great choice for managing secrets in a large organization. I have used it in many DevOps environments including Kubernetes and it has integrated well in all cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Akeyless is much easier to use than other solutions but it does lack documentation if you find yourself needing it. Thankfully, I haven’t needed any documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a lot of things to like about AKeyLess's Vault product, but perhaps the thing I like best is its simplicity. It's easy to set up and use, and it doesn't require a lot of configuration or management. This makes it ideal for organizations of any size, and it can be used in a variety of DevOps environments. I have used Vault in multiple organizations, occasionally in startups but mostly in bigger teams. Another thing I like about the AKeyLess product is its security. It uses strong encryption to protect your secrets, and it has a number of features that help to keep your data safe, including role-based access control and auditing. Finally, the reliability of AKeyLess Vault is excellent. The SLA is industry standard, and I have tested it in a wide variety of environments. This makes it a good choice for organizations that need a reliable secrets management solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven’t had any really terrible or bad experiences that are worth mentioning here. But I did have an issue setting up remote desktop access, but that was handled after consulting with the support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AKeyless has a lot of integrations out of the box with all the CI/CD tools (github, gitlab, jenkins, etc). AWS and terraform integrations are solid as well. Other useful platform features include some Privileged access management and some PKI as well. It can handle most industry common scenarios well and the local gateway with SAAS console hybrid solution gives you good flexibility and redundancy. Log forwarding to security analytics platform is useful for secret auditing. Product is constantly growing and adding more things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentation could be better. Some of the documentation is vague in areas so you either have to figure it out or speak with support. Some features are missing, but like I mentioned above the product is constantly growing. Gateway management/updates is either scripted or manual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Akeyless has multiple integrations available with most of the Industry leading CICD tools(Jenkins, CircleCI,Azure DevOps). We can manage secrets easily for different tenants using different CICD tools and Configuration.

Not even CICD, we can store creds for all public, private and on-premise environments which makes it more efficient and Reusable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Documentation part could be a little better apart from that I don't see any issue. Comparing it with Hashicorp vault its easy to get started with and use as it supports command-line control as well as a graphical user interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of my favorite features include:

- Akeyless vault is SOC2 and FIPS certified. In my current industry this is a must and it means that a lot of the competition is a non-starter for us.

-The ability to grant granular access permissions to specific users, groups, or roles, making it easy to control who has access to which secrets.

-The ability to audit all activity, and I mean all activity, from logins to access history and providing a detailed history of all changes made to secrets.

-The ease of use and intuitive interface, making it easy for both experienced users and newcomers to get up and running quickly. This made onboarding our organization rather seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t much to dislike. The features advertised are the features that are provided and work well in the product. I can’t comment on the support as I haven’t experienced it. I can agree with the reviews that mention documentation needing improvement as it could be considered “light”. This was known to us when making the purchasing decision.

Some of my favorite features of Vault include:

1. The ability to store secrets in a variety of formats. This makes it easy to store and access secrets regardless of the programming language or platform you are using. I have the most experience using Akeyless with Kubernetes environments.

2. The ability to access secrets through a variety of mechanisms, including a web-based interface, command line interface, and even a REST API. This makes it easy to access your secrets from anywhere in your organization.

3. The ability to audit all activity in Akeyless, including who accessed which secrets and when. This helps you to keep track of who is accessing your secrets and helps you to ensure that your secrets are safe and secure. If investigations are needed - audit logs make it easy.

4. The ability to set up role-based access controls, which allow you to control which users have access to which secrets. This helps you to ensure that only the right people have access to your secrets.

Overall, I believe that Akeyless is an excellent solution for managing secrets and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a secure and reliable way to store their secrets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The expiration time of SSH keys in Akeyless Vault is less than ideal because it can cause issues when sharing keys with teammates. I think an option to extend the expiration timing would be a fantastic addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
