Chose Dashlane Password Manager
Dashlane is equivalent to the other products I have used but is more accessible than KeePass. Proton is a complete suite of products, but it doesn't work for our organization.
Chose Dashlane Password Manager
While some of the products we investigated are used by many people, the biggest concern related to a password manager was security. We are a very security minded company and anything that was to be used had to include the highest security features, industry leading security …

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

KeePassXC works well for storing encrypted credentials locally. Implementing solutions requiring KeePassXC database synchronization between different devices might be challenging

Cons
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.

  • Usability is worse if compared to other solutions but this is a good thing
  • References are a good feature, but it may be complicated to make them work as expected
  • Integration with other applications like browsers can be definitely improved
  • Features like secure notes and storing secrets that are not credentials but very sensitive like credit cards are definitely missed.

It has served us very well until now and at the pricepoint it doesn't make us second guess our current relationship.

Usability
Dashlane
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 think some of the interface could be improved. Also, it would be nice to have autotype working in Wayland. Other than that though, it's easy enough that I've been able to teach non-technical people how to use it effectively.

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.

Dashlane’s customer support is often rated higher, providing more responsive and helpful assistance. LastPass has a slightly steeper learning curve than Dashlane, but it offers more flexibility with user permissions, which can benefit teams. Dashlane includes unlimited passkey support and a clean breach history, while LastPass is more accommodating for smaller teams.

They are not exactly the same. KeePassXC is good for secure storing locally secrets like credentials. All the password managers mentioned above rely on storing data in the cloud and synchronization with various devices. KeePassXC definitely has much smaller attack surface. But at the cost of usability.
