KeePass vs. LastPass for Business

KeePass is a perfect tool for use as a password manager and for storing similar sensitive data. This is especially true if you work from a fixed workstation, supporting your clients. KeePass is incredibly valuable. If you're often on the road and need to log in to KeePass occasionally to look up passwords or data, this can be inconvenient. And quickly and securely sharing data across other media isn't really an option with KeePass. Security is more important in this situation.

I consider the tool very effective for generating and managing strong. Very useful tool where secure sharing of credentials is necessary. You can create passowrd on your own (automatically from the tool or self created). Not so user friendly usage of the password management when using the apple app but this is just personal feedback.

• Very secure - no worries about our passwords being stored insecurely or in the wrong place.
• Easy to share access to passwords used company-wide.
• Integrates with Chrome and other browsers for ease of use and speed.
• Price - free to use.

• Autofill - it auto-fills your account details (and payment cards) with just one click. Incredible timesaver.
• Password Generator - it creates unique and secure passwords automagically, one less thing to worry about.
• Secure Notes - it has a place to store secure notes, like insurance policies, bank accounts, driver's license numbers/images, wi-fi passwords, database/servers, software licenses, etc.
• Payment Cards - great for adding credit cards, personal and business, that you can use to fill in for online/mobile shopping. It's easily one of the best features!
• Two-Factor Authentication

• I don't believe that this is so much a negative, but be sure that you keep your password database saved in a location that is accessible (even during an outage). Failure to do so will make it hard/impossible to recover passwords in the event that your database is unreachable (such as if a network drive failure).

Incentivized

• 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.

My very good experience in the past 15 years of usage of KeePass makes it easy to decide for a renewal of this friendship. I was never disappointed and KeePass always meets my expectations. The software runs stable and if there should be a software error, it will be fixed in no time. This is customer satisfaction.

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.

KeePass is easy to use and requires no prior training using it. I would rate KeePass a score 9 out of 10. It stands out in managing credentials securely and efficiently. No other similar app performs its core function as well, making KeePass an essential tool for password management and security.

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!

I have almost never had to contact support. This product has a wide community, a very expansive documentation/forum site where generally any question/issue already has an answer/fix or explanation/workaround, or plans for improvement in a future version. On the occasions that I have reached out, answers were fairly quick, useful, and respectful.

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.

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.

KeePass is the most simple of the password managers, but it also means it doesn't scale as well and doesn't have all the features some of the other options have. IT Glue is a much better choice for company-wide management of passwords but it has high costs and is much more than just a password manager. LastPass is probably closer to what KeePass can do, but offers the ability to access passwords from all devices such as computers and phones. KeePass is better for being free and is best for use on a single computer.

Since there is not a master password option for the Google Chrome passwords being saved, I do not feel as though it is as save to use. With LastPass, I can always log out of my browser login, but still continue to work in my browser without having to lot out of my Google account.

Access levels and the organization features in LastPass are so flexible that you can set up your structure to work for virtually any scenario. You can also prevent employees from being able to see the actual credentials, which is huge for security, especially in large companies.

Incentivized

• KeePass is free so you can share it whit all
• Is quick to use, you don't have to activate VPN or access the web to obtain a password or a quick guide
• Is not super easy to use, you need to be a little patient to have all configured fine

Incentivized

• LastPass has been a great help with productivity and peace of mind in that we can use it to access the computers of people who are away without worrying about password security and we can do the work required without waiting for people to return.
