AWS Secrets Manager vs. ManageEngine Password Manager Pro

[AWS Secrets Manager] is really good at managing the secrets for each environment (stage, production, ...), and with a simple command, the users will get all the variables for running the project. Depending on the user role, they could just read and/or edit the variables on the Secrets Manager on AWS. This facilitates the management of the secrets.

It's great for any company that relies on active-directory as their primary source of user password authentication and other data. It's ability to integrate with a host of other tools such as Google Workspace, Azure AD (if you aren't using ADFS/DirSync/etc.), FreshService, Trello, etc. as well local apps like Postgres, i/AS400, and more make it a great middleware tool for SS.

• PMP is great for sorting passwords into different groups depending on the category of application access. This makes it easy to find the password that you are looking for.
• Application credentials can easily be saved to the clipboard to make it easier to copy and paste them into the appropriate log in screen.
• Different types of credentials for the same application can be stored next to each other and are easy to distinguish by the icon next to the name. For example, SSH credentials, web credentials, and local root credentials are all easy to sort under one application group.

The contact is very easy. It is by mail. The resolution isn't easy because the support don't speak spanish and its english isn't good. In my opinion, ManageEngine Password Manager Pro should be have a Spanish Call Center for America.

Both AWS Secrets Manager & MS Azure Key Vault are pretty similar. They're the default secrets manager on their respective cloud platform.

The choice comes down to where your infra resides on.

We evaluated one on-premise solution, Password Manager Pro, one cloud-based solution called Passwordstate to store all sensitive password information and also secure notes. The latter was licensed by users, so we knew as the team grew it would cost quite a lot more to maintain. We wanted access for various users within the information technology and systems department at a granular level to have separation of the various passwords into categories which we then give permission relevant for the right users.
