What are the best contemporary alternatives to Vault for secret storage?

Googling around, it looks like there's Vault... and most everything else is just storing PGP encrypted files in Github or stuff like that. Is there a good list of all top products in the secret management area, or a good recent comparison of features?

Thanks HN!

Zip it up with bogus name followed by Bcrypt or in a Truecrypt/VeraCrypt volume uploaded into Dropbox or whatever. You get benefit of proven solution for critical part, esp Truecrypt since NSA hated it, with easy usability and cost/storage/availability of 3rd party storage.

I should have added that this is for enterprise use, and the main use case is providing secrets to services when provisioning new hosts / containers or updating said secrets.

Your comment sounds to me as something that would work well for personal use, as a password manager replacement.

Yeah, that's a lot more complex. I'll leave others to this one.
