Overall Satisfaction with 1Password

1Password is being used by myself for both personal and business use, as well as by a number of other clients for both personal and business use. The main problem being solved is simple, keep track of the plethora of passwords that are used across applications, websites, computers and other devices. There are two major business problems that 1Password solves - security and forgotten passwords.
  • 1Password does a phenomenal job of keeping track of all your passwords!
  • 1Password allows you to auto generate passwords with varying complexity. Since you don't have to remember these passwords, you can use 1Password's password generator to create extremely complex passwords.
  • 1Password's overall interface can be a bit overwhelming at first - with a plethora of options and categories to choose from.
  • Getting used to allowing 1Password to manage all your passwords - to the point you don't have to remember them, or even know what they are - takes a fair amount of getting used to.
  • It is difficult to put a value on peace of mind, but 1Password provides significant peace of mind in not having to remember all of your passwords.
  • It is also difficult to put a value on security, but utilizing 1Password's password generator, you are able to create complex and secure passwords to help protect your information from nefarious entities.
I have been using 1Password for nearly 10 years now, so my experience with the competition is somewhat limited. However, I do use KeePass for a couple of clients who prefer not to pay for a password management solutions. KeePass has one major benefit over 1Password, in that it is completely free and open source. Beyond that, however, 1Password is a far more polished program, with better password generation and significantly better browser integration, cross platform support and device syncing.
Amazingly enough, over the course of nearly 10 years, I have never once had to contact 1Password support. As such, I do not know how responsive or helpful their support representatives are. This truly speaks to the quality of the software. With that being said, I have browsed 1Password's support pages, and they contain a fairly comprehensive amount of support articles and FAQ's. 1Password also has an active group of forum members to help as well.

Despite its subscription model, 1Password is one of the most comprehensive password management programs out there. It seamlessly integrates with all major web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, and Safari), has both an iOS and Android counterpart to allow you to sync passwords b/w devices, and allows you to store more than just passwords. If used to its fullest, 1Password can act as a one stop repository for all your important information - such as passport information, bank account and credit card information, software registration, and much more - and not just logins/passwords.
