Effortless Database Access Control with Stellar Support

  • April 22, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I use Apono for database access control and appreciate the granular user permission controls it provides, especially for our workgroup servers. The ability to manage users through Active Directory is a significant advantage. I like their extensive API, which allows us to automate our configuration within Apono, making it very hands-off. This automation, through scripting, ensures that as we add, remove, or relocate databases, changes flow into Apono automatically. Our users prefer it over our previous method of accessing databases. The initial setup of Apono was very easy, and the Apono team was very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Everything has been great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apono provides granular user permission controls, integrates with Active Directory, and automates database access with its extensive API, making it reliable and preferred by our users.

Streamlined Access Management with Top Security Features

  • April 22, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate how the Slack app for Apono makes submitting and reviewing access requests so easy. It's also beneficial that there are capabilities for Apono admins to highlight suspicious access requests and reduce the attack surface. Instead of moving to the Apono web app for every request, I find it convenient to interact directly with Apono in Slack. The initial setup of Apono for our team was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's missing integrations with some of our key capabilities, including Rootly for incident management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Apono to manage just-in-time access to our cloud infrastructure and ensure time-bound least-privilege access. The Slack app simplifies access requests and highlights suspicious activities, keeping our team efficient and secure.

Streamlined Access with User-Friendly Interface

  • April 22, 2026
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Apono has a very friendly graphical user interface. It's easy to use, and you don't need to have a ton of experience to navigate it. You can just kind of go in there, start clicking around, and figure it out pretty quickly. Our customer success manager has been great, and overall, I feel that Apono is a great product.
What do you dislike about the product?
They have a lot of gaps around some of the applications that we have. It is new, Apono, as a whole, so they are turning on some of those, one at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Apono reduces the number of access tickets, improving team productivity. Teams can now self-access software with approval, streamlining our workflow.

Ideal for startups that want to onboard operational excellence DevOps in a quick turnaround!

  • April 24, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As head of IT, It gives me a piece of mind when I know that only the right users get proper access to the system's DB at the right time; with Apono I don't need to worry about managing DB privileges since Apono makes sure that the key is automatically revoked upon duration completion.
What do you dislike about the product?
The onboarding experience can be improved, it took me a while to connect, and with a quite cranky UI was not clear what went wrong; I had to get Apono Customer support to learn that the IAM configuration template provided by AWS UI Console was not acceaptable by Apono but there was no error message which would indicate that and help me to solve the problem for myself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DB privileges management.
We have an on-call routine where different operators need to run queries and execution on PostgreSQL; It's crucial that they would not hold their DB password for an extended period, and their privileges will reduce when the on-call ends.

Apono automates and provides me with peace of mind that the security of my organization is on top

They are very open to feedback and worked hard to add features that we asked for.

The UI can use some improvements but overall I'm happy with it.

Integrated Apono for regulated user read-access to data

  • March 09, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Quick and easy config to integrate access control with a myriad of service providers and data stores. For the admin, it's pretty straightforward to define and implement access flows. For the requester, all they have to do is ask for it via slack and they get what they need within seconds. Apono keeps track of everything and reacts just in time to apply, restore or revoke credentials and permissions.

The team is responsive and delivers on requests. We've had some custom implementations catered to our needs by the team quickly and with no hassle at all.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's more on the side of UI/UX, there's some stuff missing like a back/cancel button on certain screens. Also, some screens are not so straightforward to get into. They are linked to from other screens, but they don't have their own link in the side menu. However, the team is always open to feedback, and is constantly improving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want to allow users to have read access only to data. We want to be able to control how gets access to the data, and who approves access. We also want access to be temporary and upon request.
