Microsoft's Azure Key Vault allows users to safeguard cryptographic keys and other secrets used by cloud apps and services. Azure Key Vault can be used to encrypt keys and small secrets like passwords that use keys stored in hardware security modules (HSMs).
Previously, our team used Jenkins. However, since it's a shared deployment resource we don't have admin access. We tried GoCD as it's open source and we really like. We set up our deployment pipeline to run whenever codes are merged to master, run the unit test and revert back if it doesn't pass. Once it's deployed to the staging environment, we can simply do 1-click to deploy the appropriate version to production. We use this to deploy to an on-prem server and also AWS. Some deployment pipelines use custom Powershell script for.Net application, some others use Bash script to execute the docker push and cloud formation template to build elastic beanstalk.

You can back up many local keys in Microsoft Azure Key Vault, easy to set up permission. It helps your information protection task. Integration with local systems is also possible with some solutions. If you are using old systems, you may not get the full benefit of Microsoft Azure Key Vault. But I recommend to try it.

Pipeline-as-Code works really well. All our pipelines are defined in yml files, which are checked into SCM.
The ability to link multiple pipelines together is really cool. Later pipelines can declare a dependency to pick up the build artifacts of earlier ones.
Agents definition is really great. We can define multiple different kinds of environments to best suit our diverse build systems.

It is easy to use. The cost of this service is quite low, so don't worry about it. It is very easy to use because you can store keys in a variety of ways. It would be very nice to have the ability to automatically remind the person in charge of the key expiration date.

How to use Microsoft Azure Key Vault is available in Micrsoft tech net or various internet tech sites. If you have a question, you can use support from pages in Azure. Onece you request, you will get call or e-mail from Microsoft. Public information referrals and service bugs will be handled free of charge

GoCD is easier to setup, but harder to customize at runtime. There's no way to trigger a pipeline with custom parameters.
Jenkins is more flexible at runtime. You can define multiple user-provided parameters so when user needs to trigger a build, there's a form for him/her to input the parameters.

Settings.xml need to be backed up periodically. It contains all the settings for your pipelines! We accidentally deleted before and we have to restore and re-create several missing pipelines
More straight forward use of API and allows filtering e.g., pull all pipelines triggered after this date
