Considered Both Products

Chose Bitwarden
Other solutions felt more clunky or were significantly higher priced. Bitwarden seems to straddle the consumer/prosumer/SMB fence more than adequately by designing their user experience to feel welcoming but also trustworthy and reliable. The other tools seem to assume that …
LastPass for Business
Chose LastPass for Business
They offer similar capabilities, but LastPass for Business had a cleaner UI and was more user-friendly. Both of them struggled a little bit with customer service, but I'd say Lastpass has a slight edge on that as well. Also, Bitwarden made it very difficult sometimes to log …
Chose LastPass for Business
We originally choose last pass for business due to its ease of use, simplicity, and its scalability. We eventually moved away from this software to Bitwarden for its higher customization levels and its also having everything we needed to get the job done at a cheaper price to …
Chose LastPass for Business
Bitwarden works well for an individual user, however, it does not really have any management capabilities for multiple users.
Chose LastPass for Business
I have also used Bitwarden and this is the one that has not always pulled up my login info when I open an app that I need to login to, so I have to waste some time opening up Bitwarden's app in order to search for the specific login info I need. However, this is also an app …
Chose LastPass for Business
We use LastPass for business as it provides the most functionality for the price. products like Bitwarden are locked behind a paywall for features that LastPass has as a baseline such as dark web monitoring and password strength scores. We have weekly events where the security …
Chose LastPass for Business
While LastPass for Business is a little more expensive, it has a more robust feature set and configurable deployment. We also found that it was easier to deploy, and its documentation was very detailed and easy to understand. While we did prefer the simpler Bitwarden interface, …
Chose LastPass for Business
LastPass has a CLI, which was a must for us. Also, it was cheaper than 1Password and met our requirements. 1Password might be better, and maybe would've even been better for us in retrospect, but we were already familiar with LastPass from personal experience so it also made …

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.

LastPass
For any business that is remote - this is an absolute must. Businesses that are brick and mortar that don't have a lot of passwords or not a lot being used across the board, this may not be something a company like that would have a need for. But anything remote or with many employees using logins to outside websites and apps, this is the way to go.

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

LastPass
  • 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.
  • I have nothing else.

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.

LastPass
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!

LastPass is part of the essential lifeblood of our operations. It's so immensely necessary and useful that I can't imagine doing my job without it. The peace of mind it delivers along with convenience and the constant updates to the latest and greatest features make this product all around amazing. I can't recommend it enough.

Educating users on password management and the basics of the solution is key to then have them successfully start using it themselves. Many have taken it further and now use it for personal passwords as well.

The has been the first and only password management software that I have used so far, and haven't found a need to change it. I have seen promotions for other software like Roboform and Dashlane but have not had the desire to test how these work because I'm comfortable using Lastpass.

It has been really helpful to be able to evolve how we use LastPass as we grow and change departments, add departments, add personnel, and levels of security. Having some flexibility has been great to get us what we need and not have to change platforms, which for a growing company is always a pain.

  • Mitigating MSP compromising is the biggest thing. We have not had a breach before LastPass for Business, and certainly not since. Many MSPs get compromised due to recycled passwords and having them stored insecurely.
  • Another positive is that we are a reseller. When we see a client using autofill in a browser, which is insecure, we can offer them this solution, and being users ourselves, helps with the selling points.
  • When onboarding new employees, being able to add them to LastPass for access already conditions them that this is the only way to manage passwords for our customers. This mitigates, if not fully eliminates, the possibility of security breaches.
