Product Information on Secret Server

Updated 13th October 2025

What is Secret Server?

Secret Server is a software designed to provide organizations with security and management of privileged accounts. The software offers features such as secure storage, retrieval, and auditing of passwords and credentials for applications, devices, and services across an organization. It includes automated password rotation, access controls, session monitoring, and reporting to help mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access. The software addresses business challenges related to compliance requirements and protection against potential security breaches by ensuring that sensitive credentials are managed and monitored in a centralized platform.

Secret Server Pricing

Secret Server software uses a subscription-based pricing model with different tiers that offer varying features and support levels. Pricing is typically determined by the number of users, endpoints, or secrets managed, as well as the deployment method, which can include on-premises or cloud options. Additional modules and advanced features may be available as add-ons with separate fees.

“Secret Server Restricts Access Well, But Struggles With Search and Application Features”

2.0
Apr 15, 2026
We have used Secret Server in our organisation for a number of years. We use SSO and manage security scritly. Secret Server is servely lacking in features that a PAM should have. The lack of a desktop application, browser autofill or a working mobile app seriously lets the product down.
