1Password vs AWS Identity & Access Management

Likelihood to Recommend

When having to memorize passwords, 1Password gets rid of this by just leveraging a single Password (thus the name) and then letting it decide the password/passphrase to use. It integrates well into sign up flows so that there's no excuse not to use it always to generate new passwords.
When I want to share credit card information so that other people from my teams can use it to make online purchases.
When having a single seat/account that needs to be shared across people due to heavy rotation.
When the sign-up process has very complex password rules.

We used IAM to give access to different department with different services. No need to use different accounts to use different services.

Pros

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.

Cons

The automatic name generation for a saved login is sometimes redundant, if the site's title is improperly written
Sometimes random logins pop up and I have to choose manually, which is tedious sometimes.
I would love to be able to pin or star frequently used logins, when I have multiple logins to a site.

It has tons of ready-to-use rules but those rules are not explained well.
Documentation needs some improvement.

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.

Alternatives Considered

A chief marketplace competitor to 1Password is LastPass. While it is highly regarded and includes some features that 1Password currently doesn't (such as secure sharing), it fell victim to a substantial security breach in 2015, which has made me loathe to reconsider it.Another well-known password manager is Dashlane, which also provides secure sharing, but falls short of 1Password in that it does not provide application password management.1Password is continuously being improved, and the price I pay annually for a family account is more than fair.

I used Azure services a little but I think IAM is the best one so we are using IAM and will keep using this.

Return on Investment

Time savings - I don't spend much (hardly any, actually) time looking up passwords anymore.
Security - A lack of it can be costly for any company, am I right?
Mobility - even when working from home, or at a coffee shop, my secure data is always in my pocket. This gives me the flexibility I need to do my job well, even when unforeseen circumstances like the kids getting sick take me away from my primary work environment.
