Chose 1Password
I do have LastPass set up for our front office workers since their free version does fine for managing the few passwords they have. Since that computer is in an area accessed by most of the staff and visible to the public, I didn't want sticky notes with sensitive passwords …
I have been using 1Password for nearly 10 years now, so my experience with the competition is somewhat limited. However, I do use KeePass for a couple of clients who prefer not to pay for a password management solutions. KeePass has one major benefit over 1Password, in that it …
I Would like to add Bitwarden as a comparison, but it's not listed on Trust Radius. We already trying another password manager too like Keeper (https://www.keepersecurity.com/) or Dashlane (https://www.dashlane.com/) . But based on its feature, ease of access, and pricing we …
1Password was ultimately selected due to the multiple security issues we have seen effect LastPass. We ended up not even evaluating LastPass due to the perception of them not being as secure as the alternatives.
[1Password] surpassed LastPass everywhere we tested. The autofilling of MFA codes was a big upside to our decision. We have a long track record with [1Password] and trust them for our password needs. We are trying to avoid Logmein products for a few reasons I will not share in …
I used LastPass many years ago, and not as an individual, and I found it a bit cumbersome and not intuitive (I was also on a PC with Windows at the time). 1Password feels like a professional program with small businesses in mind. I've also used Chrome and Safari's password …
Prior to signing on to 1Password, I had only use Google Password Manager for SOME of my passwords. But it never provided an all-encompassing solution. I compared 1Password to LastPass when doing my initial research. I found the platforms to be comparable. LastPass, at least on …
1Password, like LastPass, is a closed-source password manager that works with a subscription model. 1Password stands out against the others for its Watchtower feature that will automatically warn you if a password you're using has been leaked somewhere, if you're re-using a …
Before using 1Password, the typical method in our organization for recording and saving passwords for multiple websites included the ever present office sticky note, an Excel spreadsheet, OneNote notebook, and many other highly insecure methods of writing down and storing …
Initially, we did use LastPass. It is a good solution if the organization has solely Google based applications. 1Password integrates with multiple platforms, because of which it has a high level advantage over LastPass. Also, the encryption provided by 1Password is far better …
We tried LastPass and Keypass. The thing is though, 1Password has a nice UI/UX and is very polished. Further, it has a nice mobile app which makes it very consistent for users to use. Keypass and LastPass are great solutions too, but they just didn't fit us as well as …
I've never used another product like 1Password. I used to just keep a notebook with passwords on it, so this is a massive step up. I recommend it to anyone looking for a secure place to store private info.
1Password is a far more mature and polished product than either of the main competitors. I tested both for ease of integration, features and usability and 1Password is the winner hands down. The ability to store family social security numbers and shared passwords has come in …
I have tried a few different password managers over the years.
Google Password Manager: This a good solution if your organization is all using Google products. I feel it is not as secure as 1Password as the passwords are open while using the browser, meaning if you step away, …
We haven't used anything before 1Password, that was the solution that we liked from previous jobs, and we wanted to make sure we had a secure solution when we started using data and software that we wanted to make sure to keep private.
1Password's interface and ease of use and, although more expensive than free open sources, it's multi vault approach is helpful. In the Admin console, different users can have different access to different very specific passwords and other users can have full access. The …
1Password and LastPass are presently quite comparable in terms of the feature set they offer to their users. Unfortunately, it is their pricing models that differ, and is the only reason we felt the need to switch to LastPass from 1Password. LastPass simply offered better …

Chose 1Password
The only other password manager that I have actually tried myself if LastPass, and it was quite a while ago. At the time, I was very unimpressed with the design of the app and the website. 1Password has always impressed me with their design. Also, LastPass only offered one way …
I don't know any of the software in the list, but normally, I used to save logins in Chrome - whether work or private, in separate accounts of course. Chrome stores information, even credit card info in plain text, that is easy to crack. 1Password is a step up, or even, several …
I've described how I use it to manage confidential client logins for the websites I develop for them. Every site has a myriad of things that need logins - from setting up their domain name and hosting, to building the WordPress site, to getting them set up with email and maintaining their sites. When I need to provide IT support to our staff, I have my phone right there to log in to their computers to address the issues. When I want to order cookies from Amazon or check my home's security camera settings, it's there for personal needs as well. There are sharing features that I haven't explored enough to be comfortable with setting up for staff. They may be just great, but it is a place where I personally don't make use of the program.
1Password's Watchtower service is a real value add - 1Password monitors the security news for evidence of security breaches containing your credentials and alerts you if you have been impacted. That is a huge value as it enables you to get out in front of a security breach and be proactive in protecting yourself.
1Password's core strength is that it makes it easy to practice good security hygiene by using strong, unique passwords for each site you interact with. This is something that all password managers do now, but offering an easy experience is key.
1Password's password sharing features makes it easy to share team credentials with other team members, and to decide who amongst the team gets access to the designated credentials.
1Password is so secure, that it lacks a self-managed "forget your password" functionality which means that as a manager, I have to approve password resets which may slow down some users.
On Chrome, the extension sometimes stops working when the browser is updated.
The 1Password app design is top notch, much better than a couple other password managers I've looked at. The app and service are very flexible, allowing for many different types of data storage. The browser extensions generally work very well, allowing for easy access to login information while using pretty much any modern web browser.
I have never had any issues with 1Password and they have always been able to answer my questions adequately resolve my issues. Furthermore, they have a robust peer forum that can be accessed. They have helpful "Get to know Apps", videos and many articles to assist in the process of using the product.
I don't know any of the software in the list, but normally, I used to save logins in Chrome - whether work or private, in separate accounts of course. Chrome stores information, even credit card info in plain text, that is easy to crack. 1Password is a step up, or even, several steps up from there. The Master key is stored in a Google service though, that 1Password gave me in a pdf format, but I consider that safe
1Password has empowered me to meet the stringent security demands of my organization without having to resort to complex, time-intensive encryption setups to store all of my various credentials. Instead of wasting time on building, configuring, and maintaining such infrastructure, 1Password manages it for me.
1Password's annual subscription pricing model is reasonable, given a great deal of value, it has provided me, both personally and in my business operations. I don't need to invest capital into secure storage infrastructure to ensure that I always have my credentials at my fingertips, and I prefer to have a dedicated, focused security company own the hardware behind this great service.
The fact that I control my 1Password account means that I can get double the use out of it: personal and professional account credentials sit side-by-side in my secure vault. Because I do not need to rely on my internal IT department to provide access, I am confident in storing whatever I need to store.
