Vigenere Cipher

From what you’ve seen what are the properties of the Vigenere Cipher that make it harder to crack? In other words, if you had to crack a vigenere cipher what would you do?

The main properties is that there is a key that is defined by the person who sent the message so the key can be very long and include a large variation of characters which mAkes it harder to crack the code. Not only that but the cipher does not just rotate the alphabet or assign a character per letter, it assigns letters based on the key. I would try to find the key or hack for the key.
