    Dashlane
    I think Dashlane is a great service for anyone who uses the internet. We need to create accounts on almost every website, and Dashlane helps generate secure passwords and store them safely, but easily accessible through its seamless browser extension. Any business or personal lifestyle can benefit from Dashlane when you go online

    LastPass
    Honestly, I cannot think of a scenario where LastPass is less appropriate for business use. LastPass has done nothing but help me complete my day to day work in a much more efficient manner. Due to LastPass I no longer have to try and remember my user IDs and password and I save time by not having to type the data into the user ID and password fields. This is exceptionally helpful for me as I work in IT/Software Support and I am logging in and out of the same websites numerous times a day.

    Dashlane
    • The mobile app works fine for quick access, but autofill across different apps can be inconsistent. Sometimes it doesn’t recognize the login field, which slows people down when they’re on the go.
    • Occasionally the browser extension logs users out or doesn’t sync immediately with the desktop app, which causes frustration if someone just updated a password.

    • It does not work for all platforms. some secure platforms are still managing to avoid the usage of platforms like these.
    • Sometimes we add passwords and we have to do it a few times for them to show in the selected folder.

    LastPass
    LastPass has been a game changer for me. I keep more than 100 passwords for financial sites for my company and many of those sites will automatically log you out if you've been idle for 10 or 15 minutes. Typing and re-typing credentials is not only extremely inefficient, but it also adds the risk that you could type them incorrectly and have your account locked. LastPass fills in all my credentials automatically and helps me to generate secure passwords for new sites. I will always want this software on my machine because it makes my life so much easier.

    Dashlane is usable, but there are 2 key issues that annoy me. 1. The mobile app and the browser extension are not synced and i cannot find passwords in the app that are clearly in the extension. 2. The system doe snot make it easy to assign a password to a specific subdomain. I get hundreds of passwords that i have to go through any time i go to any subdomain on my main site because of the nature of my business. I need the option back to assign a password to only work with a specific subdomain (and all related paged on that subdomain) note: The search features have been annoying in the past. I just went to test them to verify my issues and found that notes inside of a password are finally searchable. This helps

    I login to LastPass when I turn on my computer in the morning and I use it throughout the day. I cannot express how much easier, quicker, smoother (running out of adjectives) this is than our old Excel spreadsheet. I don't bookmark pages anymore, I put them in last pass as all I have to do is search for the site name, press launch and because I have auto signin for most of the sites, I'm in and doing my business in seconds. Truly a blessing!

    We've had no issues with Dashlane. I can't speak to their customer service because I have not personally needed to contact them. I guess that speaks about their product if we've not had any issues to reach out about. Great for supporting data/information on multiple platforms that are shared among team members.

    Haven't had to directly contact support all that much (at least not me personally, I don't know that anyone else on the team has needed to) but the Help Desk options/resources and documentation available are enough to answer any questions, although for what it's worth, the contact support options are not hard to find, and aren't hidden like some sites have it. Additionally, free new user training is offered for those who want it.
