BUYER INTELLIGENCE
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE
BUYING.
Six things experienced IT buyers wish they'd known earlier — plus the analyst evidence behind the OEM's market position.
01
AD/LDAP sync is Enterprise-only
AD, LDAP, SSO via SAML 2.0, and Azure AD sync are Enterprise-only. Professional teams must re-architect if identity becomes a compliance requirement.
04
Personal & enterprise vaults share one instance
Zoho Vault doesn't enforce full separation btwn personal and Ent credential stores by default—admin policy must restrict personal passwords.
02
Request-release workflow requires Enterprise
Password request-release for privileged credentials is Enterprise-only. Pro-tier teams may face an access governance gap during audits.
05
Offline access is not universally available
Offline vault access needs manual export of an encrypted file - no background sync or persistent offline mode. Field/air-gapped teams check connectivity first.
03
Zero-knowledge has a metadata nuance
Zoho's zero-knowledge model encrypts passwords; metadata (URL, name, tags, descriptions) may stay unencrypted for search/audit purposes.
06
Zoho ecosystem lock-in accelerates at scale
Deep integrations w/ Zoho Directory, Analytics & Zoho One add value, but more Zoho modules = harder exit as SSO/credential deps grow.

ABOUT ZOHO VAULT
CREDENTIAL SECURITY BUILT ON A ZERO-KNOWLEDGE PROMISE — AND PRICED FOR REAL TEAMS.
Enterprise-grade password governance without the enterprise price. Zoho Vault encrypts everything client-side under AES-256, so Zoho's own infrastructure never sees your credentials — by architecture.
Zoho Vault delivers zero-knowledge encryption, AD/LDAP synchronisation, request-release access control, and SAML-based SSO in one platform — federating credentials across cloud apps, on-prem directories, and team vaults without exposing a master password to a server.
Role-based permissions let admins define who can view, edit, share, or manage each credential. The audit log captures every access event. Password policies enforce complexity, expiry, and breach alerting. The admin console handles bulk provisioning from AD groups at onboarding.
Key Capabilities
INCLUDED IN ALL PLANS
Zero-Knowledge Vault Architecture
All encryption is client-side via PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA512; servers hold only ciphertext.
Request-Release Access Control
Time-bound password access—request and approver release—PAM without a dedicated tool.
AD/LDAP + SSO Federation
Per-password or folder rights: view, modify, manage, full; access logged with user.
Role-Based Credential Governance
Per-password or folder rights—view, modify, manage, full; every access logged.
Passkey + Passwordless MFA
FIDO2 passwordless: OneAuth, Windows Hello, Touch ID, YubiKey, passkeys; no master.
Breach Monitoring + Password Policies
Pro, Enterprise alert on breached credentials; admins set complexity, expiry, reuse.
