It's very easy to install and still maintains the simplicity that python is known for. Very good for prototyping cryptographic solutions as well as build out full fledged solutions. Really gets the core cryptographic solutions fully built in a few hours from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about python cryptography?

The installation command is different from the import command. You install pyCrypto and import Crypto which confuses a lot of people in the beginning but then again it is more useful to have a straight forward name that signifies it is a crypto library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering python cryptography:

Just be careful of the naming conventions apart from that it is a very straight forward and easy to use system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is python cryptography solving and how is that benefiting you?

Just implementing the basic crypto needs for securing a python application. I think this is the only python library that has such extensive cryptographic modules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
