Bitwarden
Bitwarden supports various forms of two-factor authentication, including time-based one-time passwords (TOTP), Duo, YubiKey, and other hardware-based tokens. This integration enhances the security of the Bitwarden account and allows to store and manage their 2FA credentials for other applications within Bitwarden itself.

KeePassXC for us worked very well as a password manager and I highly recommend it for the same. But it also works as an MFA tool which is in our opinion the best feature. We used to use Google MFA before on Android the issue was that Google's Authenticator app didn't take backup at the time for recovery codes. So let's say one employee was upgrading their phone to a new one all the recovery codes would be lost. This issue was fixed by KeePassXC for us.

Cons
Bitwarden
  • Bitwarden has great functionality all around, however, I would in the future like to see this product as an SSO/IDM distributor.

I would say the MFA feature is better on KeePassXC compared to Google Authenticator as I said Google Authenticator didn't have option to backup our recovery codes at the time. So I would rate it higher. However with regarding to Bitwarden I can safely say they are both neck and neck as they offer similar feature set. I did however liked Bitwarden's UI so if KeePassXC can improve on that it would be appreciated.

  • It increased our organization to use MFA for all employees and we know how important that is. So I can safely say security got a 100% boost.
  • Great to use password manager.
