Dashlane Password Manager vs. Keeper

Dashlane Password Manager works really well for situations where we need to share access to client portals or government filing sites, since multiple people can log in without ever seeing the actual password and we can cut off access right away when it’s no longer needed. It is also great for onboarding and offboarding since new hires or interns can get the logins they need quickly and we don’t have to pass around spreadsheets. Another strong use case is meeting compliance expectations because it shows clients we are serious about security and password hygiene. Where it’s less useful is in environments that already use single sign-on since that already centralizes access and makes Dashlane Password Manager feel redundant. It can also be a little frustrating if you rely heavily on mobile since the autofill doesn’t always work smoothly across different apps.

It is great for the management of passwords across organizational departments or specific cross-functional teams. The sharing feature is well suited to this. It may get harder to administer effectively (i.e., feel like you are in control) when there are many, many groups. Also, if there are groups or departments with high staff turnover, the administration efforts may get more difficult, and the chances that someone may have access to something they shouldn't increases.

• Ensuring secure & unique passwords created for each account.
• Allowing the company to see a "security score" of how secure the team's password management is.
• Sharing passwords securely between employees.
• A "vault" for storing other secure information (notes, credit cards, etc.)
• Free Hotspot Shield VPN included in our tier of accounts.

• Easy to use - you can easily access it anywhere and anytime you want (it has mobile apps, web and desktop versions)
• High level of security - 2-step authentication with your phone number
• Simple to save and get passwords and login information. Keeper fills it in for you. It may create complex passwords for you
• Syncs across all devices

• Initial setup was a little difficult.
• User SSO invite and sign on would not work at first but this seems to have been improved/fixed.
• The extension on websites doesn't work sometimes and will need to be refreshed if you open a new tab but have already logged in before.

• It took me a while to discover I could change the settings in the Keeper app so it stays open for some minutes while I am working on my phone or tablet. Once I found the settings, it became far more efficient to use.

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

Dashlane Password Manager is great for the price. Some feature sets of competitors are lacking, but I'm happy with what we get for the spend. We are a small enough company that I can walk people through the steps, and it isn't something that comes up enough to complain about. Password generation, storage and use are all great.

It's just easy to use, plain and simple. It has the complexity and user-interface that gives you confidence in its build but the ease-of-use that keep things from getting too complicated. A huge plus when you have to onboard new members of the team or summer interns when you need them to step in and make orders on your behalf.

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.

Because it is so good. It always works, has not crashed even in 3 years; I have a lot of data in it (never any problems).

Dashlane was a stronger product than Passportal, and it had the sharing capabilities that Passportal didn't. LastPass is better software, in my opinion, and I use it for my personal password storage. I like that Lastpass organizes logins based on the type of website (ex. shopping, banking, etc. ), and it also has an authentication app, so it has you verify logins from your phone for an extra layer of security, which Dashlane does not

I do not recall the other products I tested. I believe Keeper provided a free trial that allowed me to verify that it met my needs before I was required to purchase. I also found their support team to be responsive when I experienced some problems. The cliche, "If it ain't broke don't fix it" fits well in this case. I am able to create and use online profiles safe in the knowledge that my passwords cannot be easily hacked and my data is safe.

• Our cybersecurity posture has drastically been improved since the adoption of Dashlane. Cybersecurity insurance looks very favorably on those that utilize password managers
• Hundreds of hours of IT Admin time has been saved by not needing to reset passwords nearly as much at the user level.
• User productivity is substantially improved when time is spent working and not resetting passwords over and over.

• Keeper is a great product to have, positively impacting end-users to be safer with their password while providing ease of management.
• It will cost you $29,99 per year for unlimited devices, password storage, cloud backups, sharing and 24/7 support, which we found is quite a good bargain!
• The Zero Knowledge feature is quite great for every enterprise since the fact that only you have your master password means that nothing can force the company to turn over your passwords, and a distraught employee can't weasel into your stored data.
