AWS Secrets Manager vs. Zoho Vault

[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.

The reason I selected 7/10 is because I don't have any experience using other systems similar to Zoho Vault. It works fine for us, but I also have experience with Zoho Recruit, and based on that experience, I know that there are better choices out there. I would encourage anyone I was recommending this product to, to also research similar products.

• Single source of truth for secrets
• Securely share secrets with colleagues
• Securely store secrets for services to access during runtime

• Zoho Vault integrates into your browser with an add-in, which makes it easy to access websites that need authentication.
• Zoho Vault enables you to create users and groups, and share authentication details either at a group level or at a user level.
• Zoho Vault gives you the capability of defining the level of access a user or group has to the authentication - read-only or read/write. This is one of the most unique features that I have come across any online password managers.
• Zoho Vault allows you to download and store an offline encrypted copy of your authentication details for the time when the internet is restricted.

• It could be good if a user can use a variable in the project but can't see them in the manager on AWS

• The user interface can be confusing at times. You can wind up in a different category very easily.
• Maybe a notification for duplicate entries would help manage passwords a lot better.
• An integration with Zoho Help Desk would be nice

I selected 8/10 because while I don't have any experience using other products similar to Zoho Vault, I do believe it is easy to use and maintain. We do not have any problems using this product and have never needed to contact customer support.

Never really needed to use the customer support of Zoho Vault, but all other Zoho services have excellent support and excellent forums to participate in, and I don't assume Zoho Vault would have anything less

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.

Storage works the same, but the browser integrations from Zoho Vault are still very buggy.

• Inexpensive when packaged with other Zoho products.
