Hi @Piotr1215,
Thanks a lot for the detailed review of all the TACOS out there, it's very helpful, I really enjoyed reading it as well.
As the CTO and co-founder of env0, I would like to make a few comments about some items in this table:

  1. We do have a private module registry
  2. We do have an env0 CLI for remote operations
  3. SSO - we, and also Scalr, has SSO integration from the first payed tier which starts at 100$ per month (Scalr starts from 149$ per month), so I don't think it should count as a high paid tier.
  4. For secret management, with the Self hosted agents we offer build in support for AWS Secret manager, GCP secret manager and Azure Key vault - You can read more here
  5. Short lived environments support - I think you mistakenly put the ✅ on Spacelift instead of env0.

Hope it makes sense.
Again, I want to thank you for this table and the great TACOS blog post you've written.

🙏

Hi @omry-hay
Thank you for reaching out and reading my blog, I'm happy you liked it.
As with all the reviews, it's outdated the moment it's released ;). I have added/changed the details based on your comment.

Keep on rocking
👋

Hi @Piotr1215,

A lot of things happened at Scalr in the last 6 months! Below are a few suggestion that may help the comparison table to stay accurate and up to date for Scalr:

Thank you very much for the effort you put in this, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any additional comments!

Hi @Piotr1215 ,
You should update the table, Terraform Cloud do supports OPA (It is still a beta but works)
