Overall Satisfaction with Dashlane Password Manager

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization used Dashlane Password Manager to help our associates create super-secure passwords and store them in a safe, easily accessible place. Dashlane has a browser extension that my organization pushes to all our devices, so we can easily create, store, and share passwords securely across teams with the convenience of a super-simple, integrated plug-in.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Auto fill existing passwords or quick prompt to create new secure passwords so it's almost mindless
Creating really strong, unique passwords
easy password sharing across teams

Cons

On almost any form, the Dashlane icon would show up to auto fill for a password even if you weren't prompted to provide one
Bulk downloading your login information was kind of hard so if you want to migrate to a new service it's not that easy
Dashlane didn't organize the passwords once they were saved in your password vault. This is nit picky, but it would be nice to separate logins based on function. Ex. Banking logins in a banking section and shopping logins in another

Return on Investment

It has dramatically helped us safe time when it comes to employee transitions. If someone leaves the organization, we can access their passwords through Dashlane to ensure we can get access to any major accounts they were connected to.
This helps reduce the time that can add up when you're creating and trying to remember paswords throughout the day. It might seem small at first, but looking back on how many minutes we've saved creating hyper-secure passwords with a few clicks and accessing a complex password through a simple auto fill has saved us a ton of time.
This has also probably saved our company from several account hacks which has probably saved us lost of time and money working to recover compromised accounts

Usability

I have used Passportal, and I think this is a much better service because Dashlane is better at recognizing a login attempt and figuring out whether it's an account you already have a password for or need to create a new login for. I also like that Dashlane has a password-sharing feature, which makes it really easy to collaborate and share details across teams.

Products Replaced

Alternatives Considered

N-able Passportal
LastPass for Business

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.
