Likelihood to Recommend I can only think of scenarios where Keeper is well-suited, in my experience. I work in small business (i.e., sole proprietor, 1 employee) environments and Keeper is well-suited to my needs. I imagine it would also be well-suited to multi-user environments, but would require a great deal more management and organization in such environments.
Read full review It is very well suited for tying multiple systems and services together, allowing for exchanges of information and account management. I'm not sure of instances that it is not well suited since solution was recommended by folks in education. With that being the case it suited our needs quite well.
Read full review Pros Ease of use. User find it simple and intuitive to use and I find they rapidly adjust to the software with minimal training. Single-sign-on. Super important and really makes things simple for the users and easy to manage for us in the IT team. Sharing features. We knew sharing was a key component of our password management solution. Keeper makes it easy for users and simple to administer. Dave Brown Computer and Information Systems Manager
Read full review Imports students and staff into our Active Directory and email system. It manages those same accounts, disabling accounts for folks who have left, and creating "Windows" when accounts should be enabled. It interacts with our Microsoft AD and our student management software seamlessly. Once accounts are in our AD environment, our student management and other systems create new email accounts automatically for us. Read full review Cons I find that Keeper could use some work with their desktop interface, a sleeker and friendlier user interface would definitely benefit them. Keeper doesn’t have a Security Dashboard, which makes it more complicated to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your passwords. The automatic web form filling is somewhat limited at the time, but im sure they will improve it soon. Read full review We have been attempting to get single sign on for students, so they have the ability to change their passwords on their own. The documentation of this process is very dated, and often support isn't even aware that their site issues/ references those older documents. During the initial buildup of our server Tools4ever UMRA support was a bit hit and miss, but I will say our ongoing support has been very good. Some integration tools had to be custom created. Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review Support Rating 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).
Read full review Alternatives Considered I have used the Apple cloud, but if you forget your password into that, once again, you’re at the mercy of calling customer service. With Keeper, you can use the thumbprint option to log on, and there’s any of your needed passwords. It’s fast and simple, and you don’t have to wait online to unlock the app you’ve locked yourself out of.
Read full review Return on Investment The spreadsheets and printed papers being passed around the office with passwords on them have gone! This is a huge security hole plugged. Users actively use the software which says something - it is easy to use and intuitive. When software is not intuitive, it tends to not get used. It gives IT control over who does what with passwords, and while difficult to quantify it is certainly a dramatically positive impact on the organization.

Read full review We save considerable work hours by a multitude of staff having the system manage and generate accounts for us on a daily basis. We have some peace of mind knowing accounts for staff and students who leave our district can no longer gain access to our systems because it automatically disables those accounts. Because of the way the system interacts with input that is put in, it automatically creates logical positions which dictate different levels, meaning it automatically sets up when staff gain access and lose access depending on the position they are filling.
